- Smaller space and may get a little crammed on busy nights but great atmosphere (partially due to the chef's awesome playlist) and superb sushi and seafood selection!
- Menu favorites include the Halibut Carpaccio, Cajun Tuna Bomb, and the Koba Clemente Roll. Try out their oyster shooter for a surprisingly amazing combo with raw quail egg!

Fantastic mexican food and great cocktails - I highly recommend their single-barrel margarita made with their own milagro reposado tequila. Be sure to leave space for their signature butter cake - you won't regret it!
