I had very high expectations coming in and wanted to try as much as I could. We had the waitress create us a tasting menu of some of their key signature dishes. I know all the food on it's own would have been nice, but the waitress had created courses that all included bread. We got really tired of the food halfway through and found some of the food, such as the razor clams, too salty without the bread.

I'm sure our food experience would have been a lot better if the waitress had made a better selection. But, at the end of the day, it left a really bad impression.

I recommend to just order some octopus and couple of other items on the menu, because it is clear the waiting staff is not trained well to create a tasting menu experience.
