Save the date!💥

Chef Davin is heading over to roppongi_lajolla at the end of the month to join Chef Mark Correa for an epic eight-course omakase experience. Two chefs, two different perspectives, and one menu built around the season’s best seafood, thoughtful technique, and plenty of surprises along the way.

We’re stoked to get over there, cook together, and see what happens when these two get behind the sushi bar.

Limited seats available. Link in bio to grab yours!

Seared Albacore, black pepper collards and garlic chili 🔥 This one is a long-standing menu favorite, and it hits every time. Have you tried it yet?

08/06/2026

This week’s experiment from the Waite Bros🔥

Around here, we believe the worst thing that can happen is for incredible seafood to go unused. When something comes our way, we find a way to honor it, not waste it.

This week’s special is seafood pastrami, cured, pressed, and cold-smoked before being finished with mandarin jam and ice plant. It’s a technique borrowed from one world and reimagined for another… because sometimes the best ideas come from bending the rules.

It’ll be on special until it’s gone, so come grab a taste while you can 🤘
