After reading all the wonderful reviews on this site, I finally decided to give this restaurant a try and boy was I disappointed.
I went there during lunch service, everything was wrong from the very beginning.
My table was a little dirty and very sticky. I found some masago eggs on the table. They could've taken a minute to wipe down the table after the last group left., but they didn't.
The grilled chicken was way overcooked and from the looks of it, the chef tried to hide their mistake by covering it with a LOT of sauce. It not only looked bad, I can't even see or taste the chicken anymore.
The sushi was not only oily but it doesn't even taste good. I ordered their specialty roll, the izziban roll, and all I could taste was cheese. And from the looks of the menu, cheese is pretty much in all their rolls. I don't see how people could eat this food and not get grossed out after the first roll. I ate four pieces and couldn't finish the rest.
Sushi is supposed to be a blend of ingredients meant to complement each other, not have one ingredient overpower everything else. If they can't get this right, they shouldn't even be in business.
Pros: free appetizers, good host, decent server
Cons: everything else
