I went to this restaurant, trusting the rating... I was extremely disappointed... We order the ramen, some sushi and dumplings... The ramen and I quote my boyfriend "the worst ramen I have ever had"... The broth was tasteless, the pork was overcook and the noodles might as well had been from noodles in a cup... The sushi was average... Overall not a good experience!!!
Food was overpriced and...whatever. We asked the older, more plump Korean lady how many ounces the wafu steak was; she didn't know, but she said it is "big". I think they should at least know the size of their steaks. People are interested in portion sizes, you know. It wasn't that big, actually. It was long, but not big. The best part of the meal came when I signed the check, and the plump old lady came to collect it. She looked at it, hesitated and came back to our table. "Can you put the amount of tip on this line?" I had written the total, but not the tip separately. I took the pen and wrote, "2.90" and gave it to her. She glanced at it, and asked disgustedly, "two dollars tip??" and walked away. Actually, closer to three dollars, you idiot. And you don't go examining your tip and questioning it right in front of your customers. We went home feeling like the entire experience had been shat on, because of this woman's rudeness. Those smiles and being asked, "how is everything?" will cost you a dollar a piece. Oh, the joys of our stupid American tip system, which by the way doesn't even exist in Japan, even though service is five times better there.
I have been here twice now. After rave reviews from local friends, I went once and then tried it again to make sure I wasn't missing something. The 1st time I went I got sushi and it came as 2 pieces for 1 order. The 2nd time I was told that the price on the menu is for 1 piece. So did the waitress from the 1st time make a mistake? I ordered similarly both times and the bill was $10 more because of the sushi miscommunication. Between the 2 times I was there I also got the atomic roll, the spider roll, an eel roll and a spicy tuna roll. The sushi is fresh, no complaints there. The service is inconsistent. The food is overpriced. I'll only go back if I'm with my local friends who seem to really like it there.
