Went out on Valentine's Day for the Omakase. Was easily the best Nigiri I have ever had. Fantastic experience and really wowed. One of my favorite dining experiences!
Such a hidden gem. The sushi is fresh and flavorful boasting a Mexican flair. We enjoyed the signature cocktails- Whiskey Sour and Espresso Martini. Juan, the manager and Jesus were super attentive and throughout our entire visit. We even learned about a sushi class that will be offered here. We will definitely be back.
Delicious, tasteful fusion of a classic omakase with Mexican flavors. I’ve never tried anything like it before. Everything on the table omakase was amazing, but my favorites were the akami tuna (topped with mushrooms) and hamachi (glazed with brown butter).
