Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking is very limited; nearby garages run $25β$40 for evening stays. Rideshare is strongly recommended.

Noise level: Quiet and intimate β easy to hold full conversations without raising your voice.
Weekend wait: Reservation-only; no walk-in seating available on weekends.
Weekday lunch: Not applicable β dinner-only omakase service.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Very limited β omakase is heavily seafood-focused with few vegetable-only substitutions.
Vegan options: Not recommended β the experience centers on fish, shellfish, and animal-based courses.
Gluten-free options: Mostly yes β soy sauce substitutions and course adjustments can usually be made with advance notice.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Excellent if you already know you both love sushi and fine dining β the setting is intimate and memorable, but the high price and structured pacing make it better for confident, savor-the-moment dates rather than casual meetups.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Highly unlikely β reservations are required and typically book several days to a week out, especially for prime weekend seatings.
Is it kid-friendly? Not really β the omakase format, long seating time, and quiet room are best suited for adults and older teens who appreciate tasting-menu dining.
Best For
Better for: Intimate, celebration-worthy omakase with luxury touches like toro, caviar, and wagyu in a relaxed BYOB setting.
Skip if: You want a casual sushi dinner, Γ la carte ordering, lighter pricing, or a lively, social dining room.
