Perfect location because of proximity to the Edina Theatre. Noise level was very good after families with children left. Food was fine. Not distinctive, but good. Price was a tad high for a suburban restaurant. I was annoyed that I wasn't able to receive points from OpenTable even though I reserved through that website.

Reservations for noon. Stood outside the entry doors until 12:20 before an employee who had been outside smoking finally opened up. We were 2 of only 6-8 patrons in the whole place. It took another 20 minutes to get our server to take our order. She was unable to answer the most basic of questions about the menu. It appeared that everyone ‘working’ was hung over, or just sincerely disinterested in performing their duties. Maybe it was an off day, but I sure won’t be back, nor would I recommend it to anybody. The food was acceptable. Nothing outstanding.

Valentine's Day - While there was a line out the door for sushi pick-up, so it must be good, our experience was a disappointment. We ordered sushi for an appetizer, but it was so late in arriving that we did not get to try it. It took over 30 minutes to get a drink, the food order took almost an hour and was incorrect, lukewarm and not very tasty. Service was courteous.

First time for a birthday luncheon. The service was a little slow because of just one server for our group of 20. The server did get best and was very helpful with serving my birthday cupcakes.

We waited over an hour and a half for our dinner. Meanwhile BiteSquad and other food delivery services picked up multiple orders. It would have been nice if the customers that were dining in where a priority.

Sons birthday dinner. Waitress took twenty five minutes to even ask if we wanted something to drink - had to ask someone else to flag her down. Ordered edamame as soon as we sat down - took over 30 mins to get it. Then brought all the meals out so far apart the first two were done before the second two even got dinner, and the last plate came even later. Horrible service and the food was just ok. And the place only had maybe 10-15 people dining so it wasn’t a matter of being slammed. I wouldn’t go back.
