"I mean 10/10 is an understatement. The restaurant, the ambiance, the open kitchen and the service is only the start! Juniper, our server, was not only amazing but also kind of enough to make our dining experience exceptional. She recommended thenon alcoholic drink Coco Melon which tasted like a honeydew melon lemonade but slight subtle. But the ginger ale was the realstar of a drink! Amazing amazing amazing. I?ll start with the shareables or the HOT/ROBATA. 1. Corn: You?ll be nuts to not trythe corn. It?s a grilled corn with garlic miso aioli, chili powder topped with shaved paprika. I could eat 10 of these alone.The flavor was INSANE. 2. Jaga Bata was devine let me explain why. The smoked potatoes with the mushrooms had such a deepflavor. It was a rich dish with an aioli that was to die for. I?m not a mushroom person but let me tell you, I think I?m ashroom lover now.. not the kind you?re thinking of but the AFURI kind 3. Nasu: the smoked eggplant with ginger, DELICIOUS. But Iwouldn?t get it again, not a big ???? gal 4. Shishito: it tasted like a grilled/smoked shishito pepper but a million timesbetter. Just try it and thank me later!! 5. Saba Shioyaki: holy mackerel. This is a whole meal on its own okay.. like don?t tryto be kind and share it. You need this for yourself. For the main meal: I got the yuzu ratan, which is their spiciest ramen. Itusually comes with chashu pork, I asked for no pork. Chicken broth usually doesn?t have much flavor, I was concerned it wouldhave more of a pho like broth. I was WRONG. I think a bowl on its own was definitely shareable! So splurge on the apps and get aramen to share. How romantic is that. I am totally go back to try the sushi. Oh and did I mention they have an outdoor patio?Oh and there was a puppy out there? so patio, dog friendly and AMAZING food. Yeah that?s a dream combo."
