| - Been there once to check it out (2 months ago?) and probably won't return due to location, quality and service.
LOCATION: Campustown. The only places worth going are Jon's Pipeshop, Rentertainment, Bombay, New Life, Evo (sometimes), and Murphy's (rare, since I live closer to downtown Champaign).
QUALITY: We had a few different types of sushi, and they were all greasy and most, if not all on the menu were fried or fusion-y. Overpriced for mediocre sushi, and I also found hair on my plate (not THAT big a deal if it hadn't happened right after my appalling service experience). Maybe their non-sushi entrees are better but I'm not willing to find out since I've been to other places I like more (Sushi Kame, Yellowfin and Kamakura).
SERVICE: I actually don't like reviewing for service (too subjective and I've worked retail so I know what it's like) but this was too much. We were greeted by our server with "hey guys" (not very professional but given the location...), and when he saw the back of my head, switched to "hey guy and girl" (trying to be witty?). He didn't apologize when he realized he made a mistake (we're both female). I'll give the place credit that they switched servers (the 2nd one made an excuse that the 1st one suddenly became busy with other tables), but maybe only because they heard me say that I wasn't going to leave a tip.
I did tip 20%--however, I probably won't ever go back.
