Kyo-Ya certainly met my expectations following a recommendation from a work colleague. We where met at the door my a very polite and friendly waitress who guided us to our seats and while we reviewed the menu she offered us a 'hot' towel to freshen up and meso soup free of charge. The staff are very observant as they came to receive our order without needing to be called and pleasingly served the entrees and mains separately so we had time to enjoy each course without our food going cold. With the kitchen open to the dining area you can see the cooks preparing your meals and its obvious by how they work and interact that they all take pride in and love what they do, preparing, plating and serving excellent meals.
