I've eaten at Sasabune about 10 times a year since 1996. A few times, the sushi was not up to par, by Sasabune standards which is extremely high. I ate (the omakase) at the new location a few nights ago and was thoroughly disappointed. The sushi was mediorcre, and the service was horrible. I asked for tea from two different waitresses, and after 20 minutes I asked a worker bussing tables who brought some promptly. The sauteed lobster and miso soup were new yet unappetizing. The butterfish was not supple, and the ono was falling apart. My companions and I noticed that the same serving of fish varied in size and most were poorly cut. We did not drink much unlike most nights at Sasabune but the bill was about $15-20 higher than normal. Overall: average for sushi and way below average for Sasabune. The price--not worth the mediocre quality.
Pros: ample parking, toro
Cons: expensive, average quality sushi, poor service
