High-gloss AYCE wagyu and seafood experience with standout service at its best, but inconsistency and crowding risk; choose earlier seatings for the strongest showing.
Restaurant Summary
The room feels sleek and lively with a polished hotel-adjacent energy—servers circulating to swap grills, reset plates, and explain cuts. Guests describe VIP-style attention from staff like Kevin and Roman: "They guided us through the menu and kept everything flowing." However, there are some review authenticity concerns suggesting certain reviews may be solicited or influenced. The culinary approach leans premium wagyu and seafood with creative flourishes—think wagyu curry, yaki udon, ceviche, and a strong snow crab showing when replenishment is timely. At its best, A5 ribeye and striploin melt on the grill; at its worst, late-evening stations run low and lobster or king crab can taste dry. Early seatings and non-holiday nights tend to deliver the most consistent experience. Families can make it work thanks to simple, kid-friendly options like white rice, fries, miso soup, and plain veggies on request. That said, adventurous seafood and rich wagyu dominate, so picky eaters may find less to love. Expect $149–$159 per person before drinks; budget accordingly for valet and plan earlier slots for the fullest selection.
