"First off I wanna say this wasnt our first time attempting to eat here. Fortunate for them but unfortunately for us, they’re extremely popular and hard to get a table out during peak hours. I think that expansion is in their cards in a very near future. They could definitely use a dedicated phone person and or additional phone lines. Phone is constantly busy. The front desk women are extremely kind and professional. We were seated quickly and served quickly. We ordered four sushi rolls between the two of us. It did take some time to get out of the kitchen but it’s understandable considering the nature of sushi. We were there on a Friday night so they were quite busy. When we did get our food, the presentation was beautiful all utensils were already on the table, which was nice. The rolls were amazing they had so many flavors it was hard to keep up with, but they all paired so well. I normally dip my sushi in some form of soy sauce, but these didn’t require any of that. Definitely one of the best in brevard. The server was very prompt and kind. Pros Presentation, quickly seated(when not busy), server was attentive and kept drinks filled, atmosphere was dark but calming, tase of food was amazing. Cons Speed of food, can be pricy depending on your order, phone line was constantly busy. Maybe they need additional phone line or a better phone system."

"Husband and I got Chips and Salsa/Queso for an appetizer. The queso was pretty decent. The chips were incredibly salty, as in we had to wipe some of them off before they were okay and others were just inedible. The salsa is heavy on the cilantro, so if you are one of those people where it tastes like soap, best to avoid altogether.The drinks were good. I had an Island Tiki, very sweet but not too much so. He had a pineapple coconut Mule, which was decent as well.Dinner itself was Buffalo Chicken Wraps for me with a loaded baked potato on the side, hubby had the Country Fried Steak with green beans and mashed potatoes.The wraps were huge and had good flavor but fell just short of spectacular, I think it was the slaw like filler that crumbled everywhere that did it. It had almost too much flavor that it was fighting with the chicken. The loaded baked potato was meh. A bit short on flavor to be loaded since I don't eat sour cream it was just butter and shredded cheese... which didn't really melt into the potato, leaving me under-whemled.The Countey Fried Steak was good. Nice breading texture and the steak was tender but it overall lacking in seasonings and flavor. The mashed potoes were okay, but a bit more seasonings would again, not go awry. The gravy was heavy on the milk or cream flavor and overall just tasted off The green beans however, quite stood out as the best flavor on the plate. They were tender without being mushy and had really good flavor over all.Our server was super friendly and while it took a while to be served.... we could understand why as the tables next to us kept getting incorrect items or missing items from their order (not his fault, other people from the kitchen were being tasked with bringing out food which I find strange as they brought our appetizer to the table next to us and served it to them before the table stopped them and we were able to let them know that it was ours.. So, while I understand that Saturdays are a busy time for restaurants... the kitchen staff needs a bit more polish as well as some of the wait staff. And perhaps they should revisit having other staff deliver food to tables that they aren't in charge of so that items don't get missed or taken to the wrong table. Just a thought.So while the evening wasn't a disaster, it just was not an experience we wish to have again, so do with that what you will."
