    We were there for our marriage anniversary. They prepared really lovely cards for us and a table even though I reserved table at late notice. The staff was very friendly and kind. Food was amazing.

    We went to Izakaya for our anniversary and honestly, the experience was next level. I didn’t catch our server’s name, but she was from Myanmar, absolutely amazing. The service was warm, genuine and attentive throughout. At the end of the main meal, our server and one of the female chefs surprised us together with a thoughtful anniversary gesture. That moment really made the night special and showed how much they care about their guests. Hospitality at its best. We’ll definitely be back.
