The food is good, but I don’t think it’s good enough to justify the price tag. I say that as someone who went for restaurant week, too. So, I didn’t even pay typical price for an equivalent meal. If someone else is paying, why not. Otherwise, you can get excellent high-quality, great tasting sashimi and nigiri elsewhere for 1/3 the price. My cocktail was very good though.
Abby was the best! She made our meal so easy and helped us order the best dishes!! Scallop dish was impeccable and don’t sleep on the black sesame ice cream! Ambiance could not be better. HIGHLY recommend!
I come here often! I love the food and almost always have great service. This time the food was great as always but tonight the service was spectacular! Quynh was kind, patient, informative, attentive and overall very cheerful! It was a pleasure to have her as our waitress. Today we tried the Hokkaido scallops special, they were good but I prefer the miso garlic butter scallops on the regular menu as they seem more tender. Still - the special was very good. We also had the sushi dinner, the gyoza (delicious as always), miso soup with plenty of lump crab, the Yume roll, and my personal favorite — the king salmon special nigiri. For dessert we had the house made sea salt coconut ice cream. Presentation was amazing and everything was delicious. Last time I came our service was just fine. This time, we were delighted to have Quynh as our Christmas Eve server! We hope to dine in her section again.
Kyojin was a wonderful experience I loved everything about it! I’m already a huge fan of Yume Sushi so I knew it was gonna be good but it was even better. We had plenty of nigiris and sashimi and what stood out the most to me was the Usuzukuri style with the finger lime SO good!! The Otoro was fantastic and literally melts in your mouth and finally the miso butter scallops are a must!! Service was great shoutout to Jessica who was so nice and helpful. Overall it’s a splurge but at least you’re having a great time :)
What a fun, delicious dinner experience! We had the summer 5 course set menu, and everything was so delicious and well crafted. From the appetizer to the dessert, everything hit the mark on flavor, freshness and composition. Their special menu item “The Winner” does its namesake justice. It was a delightful few bites of food that was well composed. Our server Jessica was also very helpful and provided excellent service. She regularly checked on us and made sure we had everything we needed. Definitely a dining experience I would recommend to others.
