We tried dishes we’d never have known to order ourselves (and loved every one of them!), along with some seriously good sake and cocktails. Koda was the absolute star of the show — an amazing host from start to finish (and even after! 😂). So knowledgeable, welcoming, and fun — it felt like exploring with a local friend who knew all the best spots. Couldn’t recommend this experience more highly! 🌸🍶💫”
