That was reJUvenation. 🍣

Thursday night we cut the ribbon on the next chapter of Ju Sushi & Lounge — with Ada Business Association beside us, the whole restaurant turned over to AYCE, Eddy Curtis and live band, and Grain Reaper Distilling tasting at the bar. Two sessions - full house.

To everyone who came out: Thank you. To the crew who fed the room for six straight hours and made it look easy: we see you. 🙏

The ribbon's cut. The new chapter starts now — come see the room.
