Best food
So I'm not a big fan of raw fish or sushi... and I went to Katana for one of my gfs bdays & our waitress suggested that I order the "Tanagucci Roll" which is basically tender pieces of Kobe beef cooked to perfection in the form of sushi served wrapped around rice. I don't think it's on the menu but it was fairly inexpensive as well. So for those of you who aren't fans of sushi, I highly recommend that roll. The service was amazing & the place itself was nice too.
