I was impressed by this establishment, mostly because there is no reason I should not have been. Located in the SouthPark area of Charlotte, North Carolina near both shopping and nightlife. The atmosphere is cool, very LA in that it has all the trendy benchmarks of what you would expect from a modern sushi bar. The service was very good and the Hibachi lunch menu is pretty straightforward , but as we say at Soundboy America, it's always about the Maki, baby.
If you want to avoid the after work drink pounding office crowd, check them out for lunch - the crowd is a bit more diverse: from corporate types, shoppers, hipsters to merchants with the day off. The dinner crowd by comparison is vibrant and up-tempo, but keep in mind that you run the risk of being next to a co-worker birthday celebration. Both the import and domestic beer selection is above average, just like the sushi prices. They did a pretty good job on the "soundboy" roll (salmon Philly tempura) but overall I would take a date there whom I was trying to impress. Just know what you are doing and be ready to drop a hundred bones including wine and tip. But that is all about location. It is reflective in the bill. Overall I would recommend it.
