Secret, intimate, incredibly hard to get into... and worth it EVERY single time. The sushi is fresh, creative and absolutely delicious. Bite after bite, I'm sitting there thinking, how is the next one even better?! I've been here before, I'll be back again, and I'm still not giving away all the secrets. Some places you try once. This is one I keep coming back to.

heard such good things about this place that i HAD to go…read moreluckily i had no issues getting reservations (they do have a strict cancellation policy where you have to cancel 72 hours before or have to pay a cancellation fee -which is just as much as if you went); unfortunately one of my friends was not able to make it due to a death in the family and the staff were very accommodating (if you have an odd amount of people, you have to pay another fee; but they were understanding and waived the fee - fortunately, we found another person to join us and we were a group of 4). the day before they give out the address ; luckily there is plenty of parking in front and on the side of the building the service by the staff has to be one of the top tier service i have ever received - their attention to detail and quality is A1; felt like I had a personal waiter. the atmosphere is very cozy & intimate ; it is BYOB but they do provided sea water if you wish it was 16 courses for $200 (they do not skimp out ; one of the biggest nigiris i've had in an omakase) - we started off with lobster miso soup , king crab fried rice, and had 12 pieces of sushi then ended with udon soup and chocolate from Peko's which had to be the BEST chocolate i've ever had (and i don't like chocolate). my favorite piece had to be the snapper the wagyu was the most disappointing not going to lie my friends thought the uni was mid but i personally liked the sweetness of it; same with the miso cod (cooked fish) if you pay in cash there is a discount (you do save a good amount; otherwise you do get charged 3% extra if you pay in card) overall, $200 is steep but honestly this was a good experience! out of the 16 courses , 12 were DELICIOUS while the other 4 were just ok... (miso soup, fried rice, wagyu & udon soup). i do recommend it to others but don't see myself personally coming back

First thing's first, the bar doesn't serve food but they are fine with you bringing something in…read morefrom outside. The decor has a nice upscale but warm vibe to it. George, the owner, is extremely personable and knowledgeable about the beers he's serving at the moment (as the draft and bottle list change pretty much every day). He can make you recommendations if you're not sure what to get and will graciously let you taste before you buy a full pour. The bar doesn't just have beer, its decently well-stocked and George has the ingredients to make some cocktails (though I only go for the beer, so you can defer to other reviews on this front). It's a community staple, with kind people coming together each night to share a drink and socialize. I love bars where you can freely talk to total strangers around you about the drink, the game, or anything else that crosses your mind. I love it and can't wait to go back, especially to support George.

This is $48 and includes a choice of a specialty cocktail or glass of wine, fries for the table, and lastly a choice of two salads with protein and/or spicy rigatoni. Overall, a great deal. My friend and I always enjoy their speciality cocktails. We shared the fries and each selected the spicy rigatoni, which was a reasonable portion. We ended our meal with espresso martinis and a chocolate cake with matcha. This was not included with the girl dinner menu. A great dinner with a lovely atmosphere. Looking forward to coming back to experience more of the happy hour options. Girl dinner was an A+!

Calamari is basic and fine, but didn't even get lemons for it. Octopus was extremely salty and spicy which wasn't noted in the menu. Lobster roll as the meal - not it. Mainly vegetables, and the bun was two separate pieces so all of the lobster just falls out. Soggy fries came with it. Just bland. This place is overpriced and the food is subpar. Better for after work drinks than a nice dinner.

It was just a typical breakfast menu vs the English breakfast menu they advertised on line. When we got in, we were the first customers in and the server came to ask if we wanted drinks right away. However, she became increasingly mia afterwards. After waiting around 30 minutes for eggs and bacon over some burnt cheap coffee, we got out plates which were nothing to write home about. The waitress checked in with us 0x until we were ready for the check and then thanked us for being patient as she was experiencing some anxiety today, though no apologies and nothing offered as compensation for the extreme lack of service. All in all, save your $ and head down elsewhere!

I thought It would be cool to go to Hamilton Heights close to my sons drop off, here to Hamilton Hall before we went to see the play Hamilton. My son and I had a burger which tasted standard and my friend felt the same way about her food. Maybe it was what we ordered . The drinks were good and on point. My friend and I had old fashioned and my son had a soda. It seems like a neighborhood bar, and staff seemed friendly. We went on a Sunday before 6PM and there were a few people in it. However, when I pass by it when I drop off my son later in the day it seems more livelier and full. This may be a better time to visit.
