Matsu has cute decor, but I thought the Sushi was ok. They also have Teppan at night but remember to make reservation though.

Cutest: Waitresses in traditional kimonos go w/entire backdrop Japanese decor. A bit dim in the evening which lends to a romantic atmosphere. Best: My mom's BDay. They were even sweet enough to take...
