Dined here for our 6th Wedding Anniversary and the food was great. From the Oysters to the Duck, I could not fault. The strange Chocolate Soup for dessert was probably the worst tasting item on the menu (looking around the dining room, many also agreed). The most disappointing thing would be the service. It started out well, but seem to have a change half way through the evening. We were not impressed that our Mains plates were not cleared for some 15 minutes after we had finished. We also had to ask for the dessert menu after another 10 minutes wait.

Overall, it is a nice restaurant with nice food but at about $320 (no wine, just a few beers) for two people I expect better service.

This was the second time we dined here at it didn't disappoint. Tuesday night, didn't book but were found a table. After about an hour, the placed was filled with other diners. Service was pretty good, especially drinks (which I always like). They have a few Japanese beers here at reasonable prices. Food was great, I had the fried squid. This is a great (small) japanese restaurant that works on all levels. Kid friendly also which is a bonus for us.

Went here for breakfast last Sunday. Service was quick for ordering but took a long time for it to arrive given that there were only two other tables occupied at the time. Food was terrible, in particular the pancakes. Very overpriced for the kind of food served up, about $47 for 2 people. Hated the surcharge for Sunday (which is not displayed anywhere) and only cash. Lucky i had cash on me. We live in the mountains and like to support local business but we will not be back to this one.
