Geisha Mix — Restaurant in Winchester

THE WET BANANA

"I’ve had some interesting dining experiences in my life, but my visit to this sushi restaurant was something else. Let me set the scene: at first glance, everything seemed promising. We were seated quickly, and the initial impression wasn’t bad—until things started to unravel in ways I could have never predicted.

It all started when they completely botched our order. Now, I’m not talking about a simple mix-up between rolls—no, this was a full-blown disaster. What we got versus what we ordered were in two completely different universes. We tried to laugh it off, thinking maybe this was just a hiccup and the night would improve from here. Oh, how naïve we were. That’s when the real fun began. The staff must have noticed we weren’t thrilled because they instantly adopted the ‘if we don’t look at them, they don’t exist’ policy. No eye contact, no communication, nothing. They actively dodged us, like we had suddenly developed some contagious disease. Our water glasses sat empty for so long I started to think they were trying to help us practice fasting. If there were an Olympic sport for avoiding customers, they’d win gold, no contest.

And then, the piece de resistance arrived at our table: the sausage banana sushi. Yes, you heard that right. A combination so baffling, so utterly wrong on every conceivable level, that I began to seriously question my life choices. Sausage. Banana. In sushi form. I can only assume this was a cruel joke, or perhaps the chef had some deep-seated vendetta against humanity itself. There are bad flavors in the world, and then there’s what I can only describe as an assault on the senses. The first bite was so disturbing, so offensive to my palate, that I started to reevaluate all the decisions that had led me to this exact moment in life. Every choice I made seemed to be a mistake, culminating in this one tragic bite.

As the bizarre combination of sausage and banana sloshed around in my mouth, I couldn’t help but envy every person who had never stepped foot in this restaurant. In fact, I think I might actually envy people who’ve never eaten sushi at all. It was that bad. I’m not being dramatic when I say that I would trade places with any one of those lucky souls in a heartbeat. The flavor was so profoundly awful that, for a fleeting moment, I found myself contemplating existential questions about the meaning of life. I’ve never thought I’d say this about food, but it was bad enough to make me wish I was anywhere else—literally anywhere else.

And so, I sat there, with my empty water glass, ignored by the staff, full of regret for every choice that brought me to this restaurant. If you’re ever in the mood for a dining experience that combines neglect, confusion, and the worst food pairing known to man, by all means, give this place a try. But if you value your taste buds, your dignity, and your overall happiness, I’d advise running in the opposite...

I don't even know where or how to start this review. We enter around 6pm and it's fairly empty and we get seated pretty quickly for being Valentines Day. It's take roughly 25min to get our alcoholic drinks and 30min to get our first half roll but after all that waiting the drink my wife ordered is warm and the one I ordered didn't taste like anything but ice and alcohol. The first wave of sushi rolls that we order aren't even what we ordered we kept getting rolls that contain cream cheese even though we didn't order any that had cream cheese to begin with. It doesn't help that the server ( tall black haired lady with long fingernails and a huge attitude) never knew what she was bringing us or to anyone. Throughout the visit she kept talking down on customers for mistakes that were kitchen mess ups. ( I felt bad for the older couple, and saw the older man start to get annoyed) It just kept getting worse thought out our visit since the Valentines decorations ( heart shaped balloon) not tied to anything in a restaurant full of ceiling fans kept crashing into one another, making very loud bangs and at one point broke one which caused the fan cover to fall and potentially hit someone. The manager with bleached hair was the single hand weakest link to the restaurant. He wouldn't do anything or didn't know anything as he heard the balloons hit the fans and proceeded to not do anything to shut the fans of until the whole restaurant was spooked from how bad it was getting. He's attempts to help guest would be asking what's wrong, listen, and walk away while saying I'll get a waiter. (F.Y.I he wouldn't tell anyone because I had seen/heard him do multiple times) At this points I was fed up with the visit and had enough but to my surprise the takoyaki I ordered finally showed up to my table after almost 1 1/2 hours, while I'm taking a bite I realize it's not hot but still frozen in the center. At this point I try to get the managers attention but he wouldn't even enter the dinning area, he'd peak, notice his servers stressed and immediately leave the dining area. I've been to many sushi places and understand that it's by no means a quick eat and leave visit especially on holiday's but the experience that unfolded today was by far the worse experience I've ever had. I will give it another shot as our first visit here was amazing and wonderful. This second visit will forever be a core memory for my and my wife and it's was funny watching the world burn for it to instantly go south being ignored and going through the rollercoaster experience of geshia mix on a short staffed Valentines Day.

Asain sever was the best she tried her best and I wish her the best of luck. She was the best waiter I could have had going though this...
