“immensely popular elegant dining”

It is a 175-seat, Pan Asian restaurant with sleek, modern decor. Great for both large parties and intimate dinners, the restaurant features two full bars as well as a popular (and hard to reserve) 20-person, lit-from-within, community table for sharing food and conversation. Appetizers include seared kobe beef carpaccio, endamme ravioli, miso tuna tartare and tea smoked spareribs. For the main course, delve into delicious dishes like Japanese black cod, wasabi crusted filet mignon, roasted ponzu chicken and collosal tempura shrimp.
