We were celebrating our 39th anniversary and decided on Shiso. Couldn’t have been happier. Chelsea our server was very attentive, pleasant and knowledgeable. We over ordered so we could try as much as possible, and enjoyed it all. Everything was good…..very good. Don’t think you can go wrong dining there.
