review on menupages

We had a shrimp tempura for appetizer (not in the online menu) and the following from the special rolls section of the menu.

*Snow White sake-miso flavored white asparagus roll topped super white tuna & wasati tobiko
This was a great find. I love white tuna. wonderful presentation with pearl white fish on top and a tiny of green roe

*Red Hot Dragon spicy crunchy tuna on top of tuna avocado roll
Not spicy and the tuna on top was not a great texture. the inside tuna avocado was good though.

*Veggie Fried Rice asparagus, mushroom, and long bean, lily root, and green squash.
The vegetable fried rice had some of my favorite veggies and was very light on oil and salts. It does contain eggs though so if you're vegetarian, beware.

The decor was very organic, with barks and trees and logs and seashells on the walls and lights. I really liked the woven mats on the walls as well. Great place to sit and chill near the window with the soft summer breeze.
