CRAVE

We sat at a high top by the bar and had two of the current sushi specials before a flight. Absolutely fantastic rolls! One was the margarita roll, and I believe the other was a rainbow roll, and the Pink Panther? I’m not sure. The margarita roll had little slivers of lime on top and were absolute perfection! Holy moly! I could’ve eaten 3 of them by myself! You’re given warm towels at the beginning of your meal to clean your hands. The server/bartender was super attentive and made great suggestions. Wonderful place! Great ambience! Reserve your seating online, just in case!

The atmosphere and service at the bar were great.
We ordered from the happy hour specials menu.

The only thing I didn’t like or appreciate is that they didn’t have any more booths or low tables near the bar area, and I am not was not comfortable on the high tops but they wouldn’t let us sit at a regular table if we wanted the happy hour specials.
My and my bad back struggled to get on and off the high-top tables.

Other than that, everything else was good.

Really enjoyed our meal here. The menu has a great selection of food. Had the Paloma and angry dragon martini, both were yummy drinks. The firecracker shrimp was a great starter and the Classic Sushi Platter was larger than we thought with great sushi, sashimi and nigiri.

Very busy place, lots of tourists because of location and so consequently quite noisy. Servers busy so you won’t get a lot of attention but they were great. Front desk attendant was rude, maybe an off day. Food is varied and hit or miss and a little expensive for what you get. The firecracker shrimp was delicious and cocktails were made well. Sushi was good. Chicken and pasta was bland. Pickled veg salad didn’t have any vinegar and was just water so was weird. Would still go back to try again.

This wasn’t simply an excellent meal, it was a phenomenal experience. It feels reductionist to say Michelle was our “server”. She was more like a cool dinner party host who has everything under control – spending enough time with us to answer every question, made suggestions, and took care of anything we might have wanted before we knew we wanted it.

We had the tuna lover’s sushi platter, and it was really fresh, expertly plated, and the flavor balance on the assorted rolls was on point. If you’re not into cilantro, I could see how the Mexican fusion could be problematic on a few of the rolls, but we love cilantro, so it was a real treat.

A bottle of sake’ was either a brilliant idea or ill-advised, but we weren’t driving, so we think the prior.

Pros: Fresh, bold flavors, hospitality pros

Cons: Price reflects the experience – it’s not cheap.

Very nice restaurant in Mall of America.

1. It’s a touristy area so it will be busy and noisy. It’s a good idea to make a reservation.

2. The food is good. It’s presented nicely and it’s very tasty. However, you will pay a premium because of its location.

3. The service is pretty good but the wait staff is moving really quickly because it’s busy. Make sure to have all your requests before your server leaves because you may not see them again for the next 5 minutes.

4. The restaurant, including the bathrooms, was very nice and clean overall. It was a good experience. We would revisit.

Quick pit stop and had the fried with garlic truffle aioli, grilled wings and old fashioned. Willl get these every time. This place is fantastic.

Can get enough of this place. Went for Father’s Day and had wedge salad with grilled shrimp. Blue cheese dressing was perfect t and shrimp grilled perfectly. Also had the seafood tower and it was amazing.

Had dinner here. Everything was good, not great but good. From a price standpoint it wasn’t to pricey. It was in the mall of America’s which was pretty cool. The bar was crowded and seemed lively. We had a flatbread and some fries.
