Amami Sushi Bistro — Restaurant in San Francisco

My one complaint is no vegan / vegetarian options on the lunch special bento box menu. The lunch special bento box is only for fish, beef, pork, and chicken. I asked for agedashi tofu to be the protein for my bento box and was told they'll have to talk to the boss, in the meantime, I had to order from the all day menu.

The tempura was 2 pcs shrimp, acorn squash, potato, eggplant, onion ring and broccoli. The batter is really starchy and the veggies were kinda meh. Glad I gave it a chance, but I won't be back. Sucks because Tenroku (the previous restaurant) was my favorite...
