    Excellent as ever. The standards have been maintained and, IMHO, the prawn toasts are better than ever, with the star still being the amazing yellowtail sashimi in coconut and herb oil with fresh herbs. The service is always friendly, outgoing, and efficient. Yesterday, we enjoyed the charming Devin, who was outstanding. My only tiny niggle is a lack of new dishes on the menu for regular diners, but it is still one of the spots in Cape Town…
