I was so excited to give this restaurant a try! I saw it one day when I ate at the Maddox. When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked into a beautiful restaurant. We sat, and Tyler was our server, and she was super cool. I started with the edamame, and it was flavorful and had a little spice. It was very good! I then had the udon dish, and it was good, but I wish the vegetables were cooked and that there was more broth, but the flavors were good. For my entrée I got the sea bass and it was very good with the black rice! My friend enjoyed the branzino and it was plated very nicely. We definitely had a good experience all in all!

This restaurant is so vibey and the food is delicious! The staff was very friendly and helpful. We ordered a few cocktails (all fantastic), the crispy rice appetizer, a few rolls and my boyfriend got the lamb entree. Definitely pricey, but the food was great! I loved the Essex roll and the Musuko signature (wagyu) roll! We will definitely be back.

We certainly appreciated the ambience, and the connection to the Maddox right next door was a pleasant charm.

For the prices, I expected to be blown away, but I was barely impressed. Short rib was pretty good but the potatoes were in various states of cooked or undercooked. Appetizers were alright, great presentation but overall underwhelming.

There are many mixed reviews here and I was hopeful! I liked the Crosby for drinks and was so excited to see something come into the space.

Really cool vibe! Love the area and what they did with that place. And great service! The food on the other hand. Extremely disappointing. I’m a chef, worked multiple restaurants, including sushi. No flavor, quality of fish was ok, no balance is various flavors on the palette. The scallop skewers were soooooooo over cooked and dry that you couldn’t even eat them. The best part of our night was the bubbly sake we discovered. I wanted to love this place but unfortunately no.

Not a fan of the place at all! The ambiance was nice when we first entered but the place was empty. Service was okay. Ordered two cocktails and four food items and everything was pretty bad except one drink with tequila and the crispy rice!

Expected a scene but also a pleasant staff following some changes at this restaurant in recent weeks. Came here for the first time with 2 girlfriends for a mothers day night out. Service was not even mediocre, it was negligent and borderline rude. We are very kind and forgiving people but it just felt like the person at our table didn’t want to be there. We tried being extra nice and accommodating to her absence but she didn’t serve us any differently. Server was not attentive or pleasant at all. She would frequently walk away while we were in the midst of ordering.
