Amazing experience! My husband and I went here for our anniversary and had the best experience! Each course was fresh and inventive, drinks were EXCELLENT, and the chefs was entertaining and skilled (: Can’t wait to come back!!

★★★★★ 5.0 Christina Lee · Nov 2024

I thoroughly enjoyed this Michelin level omakase experience here. The food, service, and ambiance were unmatched. Valet service was complementary at the Montecito Inn. I went for my birthday and was given an extreme level of attentiveness throughout the service and they even placed a candle in my desert. The sushi was extremely fresh and the flavors exploded in my mouth. The sake pairing provided a matching sake pairing for every 3 courses and was excellent for the price that was paid. Kudos to the entire team from the host, chefs and the bartender. I will definitely be back!
