This is a pleasantly air conditioned restaurant with upbeat music playing quietly. A bar for drinks is in line with the service area and kitchen. Booths are separated for privacy and conversation but there are tables down the center for a dinner party gathering. The server Shelley attended as soon as we sat down and asked if we would like still water. She was very knowledgeable of all the menu and ingredients so we enjoyed talking with her briefly about local favorites. The menu has a great selection overall and the sushi servings are large portion. Chef and staff working in the front area of the restaurant have spotless workspace, bright clean uniforms and happy cooks having conversations with each other. I appreciate seeing happy staff and I am told they love their jobs so I congratulate your successes and wish you many also happy customers. This restaurant is 10 years open and well deserves to be popular, the food is blessed to be healthy for you because it looks like all is prepared with love, I was inspired to give a gift. There is a quaint kitchen store next door and I skipped over to purchase a sushi dish set. I asked to have it wrapped and then brought is back and presented it to my company. I highly recommend eating here , the heart of downtown Smithers and the area around is a lovely neighborhood to explore.
