Tldr; owner expects you to verbally tip on top when using a credit card, she will then bully you for not doing it
Fish is fresh despite the cuts for sashimi and nigiri not being excellent. Teacups are the size of a thimble. I've dropped by a handful of times because it's very close to where I live. There's lots of seating and it's not packed. New-ish restaurant. Presentation on the sushi platters is visually aesthetic. Service is a little on the slower side and there's a communication gap.

And we were the only 2 people there. After we got our food we saw nobody until we eventually got up to go and pay. All the staff were sitting at a table at the front door eating. Seems we were a large inconvenience to them. Also, it’s extremely hot in there. They do have a fan though which they...
Read moreFresh ingredients, there was a lot of duck slices in the pho soup which was delicious, perfect crispy skin. You can feel that they are investing in the ingredients and the portions. Very kind staff they asked several times if everything is okay that is so good also. The lemonade was really nicely decorated. It is a really nice place to dine in with very reasonable price. Only improvement that I can give is to have a soy sauce that is gluten free so the people that are gluten intolerant can also use it but it is just an idea. We will definitely come back to...
