    Excellent food! Top shelf on everything. Yes it could be pricey but it is worth every dollar. Service was very attentive. Try the sampler...from soup, to sushi, to Kobe beef to dessert...it was heaven!

    pricey but definitely worth the splurge for a special ocassion! the fresh sashimi, tempura poke, and the cod are excellent. they also have panna cotta with an assortment of fresh fruits...yum! their food is fun and creative without being too cliched or weird.

    our server seemed a little new, so he didn't seem to understand how to be attentive without lurking or hovering over us 24/7. it was a tad awkward but hopefully he'll get better with more experience.

    AMAZING!: We came for lunch and Ame did not disappoint! The restaurant is upscale but not very pretentious. Needless to say, it was expensive so I would suggest lunch over dinner since most of the same dishes are served for lunch at a fraction of the price.

    We started off with a few appetizers, tempura poke, ceviche, the hamachi, and oysters, all of which had great flavors and presentation. For my entree, I had their house specialty, the Alaskan Black Cod - delicious! It was extremely light, yet tasty. The cod's flavor was clean and naturally sweet and buttery; it melted in my mouth! Others at the table had the scallops and the kobe and gave raves reviews. I can't wait to come again!
