| - I'd like to give this restaurant 2.5 stars... But I'll be nice and round up instead of down.
I came in here for the first time a couple months back with a couple friends. At the time I was trying to stick to a vegan lifestyle, so I only ordered off of the vegetarian section. I was in love with their avocado rolls; thick, refreshing cuts of rich avocado wrapped in the perfect amount of rice. I also had the enoki rolls which were so freaking awesome! I can't express how much I love mushrooms. I was impressed by the decor seeing as the exterior of the store is rather questionable. My friends had the AYCE lunch, their only complaint was there was too much batter on the tempura and my friend had over ordered as usual...
After the first visit I recommended the place to my boyfriend and we came here quite often after I finished work. He loves the teriyaki beef rolls. We tried asking what type of beer was for the beer special and i couldnt get a straight forward answer from her. In the end we were confused and chose to order a bottle instead of tap. Our pet peeve was having the waitresses pour his drink for him. To be honest, I understand they want to have good service, but it's rather annoying that you insist on pouring a brew into a glass when you don't even know how. The entire scenario happened in slow motion. She brought the beer over and put it down with the glass next to it. Was going to walk away but decided to pour it for my boyfriend. So she did it. The head that I saw in at the top of the glass made my eyes pop. Also, to top it off, the glass wasn't cold.. And because she poured it so skillfully, she took away almost a third of the brew that was left in the bottle thinking she poured it all due to the gigantic head that filled to the top of the glass. As she walked away my boyfriend and I looked at each other thinking "did that seriously just happen? Did you see how much was left in bottle?!". BIG NO!.......NO!!!
I find that the younger sushi chef that is usually placed in the bar at the front is shy but a much, MUCH better sushi maker than the older male chef. I'm not sure if they got rid of the younger one, but I haven't seen him the last couple times I went in. If they did get rid of him, bring him back with the rest of my beer!
Couple of weeks ago I came back with my boyfriend and a couple other people. This time I had the AYCE lunch and had such a hard time asking the lady if we can order for a 4th person for them to show up later, but still have them pay for the lunch cost. I couldn't understand her and she wouldn't directly answer me but felt like she was beating around the bush. She asked the other worker in mandarin and the older man in the front said something in English that didn't make any sense either. The fish was okay, the teriyaki steak was really good, the tempura was piping hot, the avocado was sad, the rolls were falling apart and the california rolls were sad too. It was just over all okay. I don't know what's going on, but it's making me not want to eat here anymore. Also, the decor is starting to come off gross to me. At first it was nice, but after a few visits it's blah since I can notice the few things here and there.
Anyway, to summarize all this. I was very impressed at the beginning (5 stars), was still impressed half way through (4.5stars) and now I'm disappointed with the language barrier (they explain things to me that i cant comprehend), the food and the last couple services. I just got pick-up and the lady kept handing me a menu when I repeated pick up about 3 times. I just hope they get their stuff together again, 'cause I find it ridonkulous coincidence if I just happen to come in on the days they have bad avocados :(
Oh, if your customer tells you visa, do you really find it necessary to ask "you don't have cash?"- it's not the same as asking "do you happen to have a penny?".
