If you are looking for a place that is high on attitude and prices, this is it! Starting from being ignored by a big black transvestite-looking woman with a heroine addict looking sidekick blocking the entrance, we wound up with excellent sushi; miniature portions and insanely high prices. I just don't get it! This is Miami, is everyone in town a financial jackass? Everything was priced stupidly high. Design district or not, who the hell wants to go off like a lamb to slaughter when you want some good food with a little atmosphere. There is sushi on every corner here. Who do these folks think they are? Even on the quality of fish alone: Though excellent, it wasn't worth an unexaggerated 400% increase over a "regular" Miami sushi joint...
This is a really cool space, and the sushi was excellent. We had delicious lobster rolls and a unique roll that featured shrimp wrapped in proscuito with a citrus dipping sauce. But....the service was a lot more South Beach than Design District -- waited nearly an hour between appetizer and main course, and only got served after asking if we'd been forgotten. Based on the food, I'd give them another chance.
