My first time here we sat down at a table and ordered takeout. While we waited for our food everyone was very friendly and helpful. We ordered the steak hibachi for take out and literally just took it across the street where we were staying at a hotel. My grandmother ordered her steak to be cooked medium. It came out well done. When we call the restaurant to tell them that our steak has been severely overcooked, the manager told me that it likely continued to cook while in the takeout container. I told her I literally walked across the street and started to eat. I did not appreciate her, trying to dismiss what happened instead of taking accountability. The bottom line is the chef overcooked the meat. It did not continue to cook in the container as she suggested. She told me that she would remake it that night, but I told her I didn’t wanna come out because I had already taken my clothes off and gotten comfortable. I asked instead Could she have it ready for me tomorrow and she said no today is the only day she could replace it, which I thought was very inconsiderate, considering we spent almost $40 for a meal that was not properly cooked. I asked if I could get a refund instead because I did not want to come back out and she said no. So now I am out of my room, back in my clothes and walking back to the restaurant. I was just very surprised at the treatment. Very...
Read moreIn the otherwise desolate Murray Hill area, Sachi is quite the gem of a place. It's a modern, trendy Asian bistro that covers a number of cuisines on its extensive menu, perfect for the times you and your fellow group of diners are feeling indecisive and need a place that will suit a number of tastes and dietary preferences. I came with two friends after work, and we were quickly greeted and seated. Our server was very helpful in going over the dishes and making recommendations, so we ordered a number of options to try. I really enjoyed the Miso Octopus - it was super tender, and the miso sauce added a lovely flavor. We also enjoyed the unique presentation of the Guacamole and Tuna, and their Crispy Eel Roll. If you're in a sashimi or nigiri mood, you can also order individual pieces from the menu, and the pieces we tried were all gorgeously presented and tasted very fresh. They also have an extensive noodle section on the menu, and I'd recommend the Seafood Laksa for those looking for a spicier bowl. We also tried the Seared Duck, which was cooked to a perfect pink and paired well with wild rice. Overall would definitely recommend and look forward to ...
Read moreA high end feel with a budget friendly and extensive menu. I’ve walked by this place a dozen times but finally took a chance today as I wanted something healthy (with very little healthy options in the area). Gentlemen waiter was super kind and professional and I was greeted by a nice and pretty hostess who brought me to my table. I ordered a jasmine tea gin & tonic which was fantastic! I went a little Japanese with some sushi and edemame and they were both super fresh. Not the best sushi I’ve ever had but a pretty close second and very fresh. Dumplings were on point and delicious! One thing that really impressed me was that my orders came out well-paced and not all at once like many other restaurants annoyingly do. I hope to try more of their Thai specialties next time from their super extensive menu. Atmosphere is nice and feels upscale, especially the bar area. Kept thinking how this place is in the wrong neighborhood. It’s kind of weird around there and I kept thinking how great this place would do on the upper east side with a bunch of more high end restaurants. Well, glad I found an oasis in the middle of nowhere. I will...
