Food Scene

I have had food loving guests from L.A. to NYC who have told me some of the best sushi they have had, anywhere. I agree, as it should be, ownership comes from the local fishing community . They have Asian dishes for the non sushi diner as well. Great bar to have a cocktail. Great food, beautiful atomosphere, friendly staff.
