I never write reviews, but I felt this was justified after the shock of opening my To-Go bag. I spent $36 on two to go meals and barely got food. The beef meal depicted below was $18 and there were only a few tiny pieces of meat (as you can see). I ordered a rainbow sushi roll for $15, and that's not what I got. I basically get a huge protocol of rice with smallest pieces of what looks like a mayonnaise-y crab mix in the middle (what is not at all what a rainbow roll is). You can see how much rice there was. They didn't pack any utensils, and there was no soy sauce, so I had to eat it by hand, without soy sauce, and finally it just threw out because it was not a rainbow roll and I realized t...
came here for my birthday dinner. Food was amazing, authentic and delicious. For dinner they have a number of small plates that you can share and try many different things. A favorite was the raw octopus with Wasabi; they use fresh real Wasabi (in contrast to the green-coloured horseradish that is regular business-Bought Wasabi Paste), which is a sweeter, milder taste and was very beautiful. We also got the flight that had the pleasant surprise to come with a piece of salmon-sashimi and octopus as a palate cleaner. All in all a wonderful experience, and I look forward to coming back.
4.5 stars The atmosphere was nice, it is a small cozy restaurant with a soothing jazzy music background. The atmosphere makes the food experience feels like fine food. The service was impeccable, they forgot my misfortune first, but they served me quickly as soon as I asked her. The food was okay, the soup and Udon are really nice as I eat them while it's cold and rainy outside. I think it's something overpriced tho, especially for such small bites (the food on the photo is $25).
Excellent food overall, including very fresh seafood. I had the matsu platter, which provided a sampling of several different dishes. I highly recommend these sets; they're a great way to get a taste of many different dishes. The dinner menu also looked amazing with even more options; will definitely have to come back sometime for dinner!
