by Chad Bassi on This is by far the worst experience anyone could have. Second rate bands playing while being lurked over by 200+lb meathead bouncers. The staff is obviously disillusioned by their ego, and it makes you not want to come back! Believe me if they had to close at 2am they would be out of business.
by Anthony C. on I was a huge buyer of the spicy crab cakes and crispy tuna sashimi for small plate appetizers. The lobster wontons and sashimi of Kobe beef were also tasty. If you must have Kobe beef then just get the sashimi appetizer if anything. The Shabu Shabu Kobe sirloin was nice to try (you simmer it at your table) but there are far better things on the menu, especially for a better value. Other establishments have much better Kobe. The sushi is of fine quality but the sushi menu could be more extensive. I would get the Omakase (chef's choice sushi platter) to be sure you do not leave the place hungry. For the main meal, I also really enjoyed the grilled rare Yellowfin tuna, lacquered pork, and the salmon special was decent but again I was not a big fan of the sauce this was in. Be a family: share the meal with your company and enjoy the many diverse tastes this place offers! The beer menu is typical for Asian fusion (not extensive) and I would recommend the Mohito or Blue Zen over the Saketini which I found to be gross. You must make reservations for dinner and apparently they are pushing decent lunch specials if you don't want to break piggy on dinner. Some of the tables of 2 looked tight and uncomfortable so keep that in mind.
by crystal e. on i've been here 2 dozen times. always a fun time. it's a great chill place to go with a bunch of friends, or a one-on-one date. the atmosphere is by far my fave stephen starr place. the drinks...well, the martinis speak for themselves. the beer menu stinks, but you can't have it all...or can you? the rbnv's can be less pricey. really, $10, really?? the food: cheesesteak eggrolls: B+, the lobster mac-n-chesse, A-. there's a sh*t ton of great munchos and dinner options on their menu. probably my favorite friday night hot spot
