I would give this small spot an A for effort but B- for execution.
I've had the lemon love roll. There are other restaurants that have pulled this concept off well; tangy lemon pairs well with subtle salmon and sweet sushi rice. But here it is essentially a California roll with a bit of salmon and a thin mango shred. If they managed to make the flavors of the mango and lemon pop, this could have been a truly unique roll. As is, it feels as if they are tacked on.
The sashimi salad is more sashimi on top of a bed of iceberg lettuce rather than a true salad. Thankfully, the sashimi is really good. It is soft and flavorful, and all 4 fish are equally delicious. Usually with an assortment, there are 1 or 2 that are good, and the rest are filler, but all were good. Hopefully they'll do something better with the salad part though. Maybe select better quality lettuce or add more veggies that bring out the sashimi's flavor. The dressing was okay, but it just ran off the lettuce, instead of sticking around to lend some flavor.
Even with the flaws, I would still recommend it. You can see how popular it is right away with a line out the door, and every seat inside filled up. I haven't tried the AYCE since the opened back up, but I was pleased...
Read moreI left a positive review before but I deleted it so I could leave this one.
My husband and I used to order take-out from here at least once a month. However, since they reopened their dining room, it seems they've been neglecting takeout orders... a lot.
In May, we ordered the "Teriyaki Chicken Bento Box" for dinner. The menu says it's "served with Shrimp & Veggie Tempura, Rice, Miso Soup, Salad, California Roll (4pcs)" ...
However, I was completely missing my tempura, the salad had very little dressing, and the teriyaki chicken had virtually no teriyaki.
I had never had this issue before, so I thought maybe they were having an off day. We ordered again last night thinking it would be better.
I was wrong.
We ordered the "A: Chicken Teriyaki, California, Green Salad" from their "Dinner Special Bento Box" section. It's "served with Miso Soup, Rice & Gyoza"...
I was missing my Miso Soup. My Teriyaki Chicken had incredibly watery Teriyaki sauce. The sauce wasn't even on the chicken either. It seems it was poured into the container and then the chicken was placed on top? — My salad had no dressing again too.
My husband's birthday is in a few days and I was planning on ordering dinner for him from here. Definitely changing our...
Read moreThe food is good, but won’t be spending my money anymore just for rude service. I ordered a meal for carry out via their website, and when my husband gets there, they don’t even have the order ready. They apparently didn’t have record of the order at all. My husband had to wait a long time for them to cook the meal from scratch. Not a big deal and I would have totally overlooked it, but when my husband brings the order home it’s missing the Gyoza. I call to let them know, and all they can tell me is that my meal doesn’t come with gyoza, when it’s clearly on the menu that is posted on their website. They tell me sorry that their website is wrong, and after a little bit of arguing they finally agree to provide the gyoza. Then the woman hangs up in my face. Is it my fault your website is wrong? Horrible customer service. Will never eat here again, and will advise everyone I know to...
