| - This is a cute little Japanese restaurant that has good food and great atmosphere. I came here for dinner on a Saturday night and really wished that we made reservations ahead of time. We waited for about 15 minutes but the entrance is narrow with only a couple chairs so it was quite uncomfortable for a group of six.
I ordered the Pork Cutlet Donburi ($10.95) that came with a miso soup. It was quite disappointing because the seasoning of the dish was bland and the meat was really thin and dry. The one upside of the dish is that it was a large serving, enough to be a meal on its own.
The sushi rolls were generously made with a lot of filling and toppings. They came with a miso soup and salad. For the most part, the rolls were good but pretty expensive. We had the Orange Dragon Roll ($14.95), Black Dragon Roll ($15.95), and the Toronto Roll ($16.95). I enjoyed the Dragon Rolls but they weren't outstanding. On the other hand, I was very impressed by the Toronto Roll. It's basically a shrimp tempura and yam tempura roll topped with assorted sashimi, crabmeat, avocado, cucumber, tobiko, unagi cause, spicy mayo, and wasabi mayo. The presentation was beautiful and made eating messy but it was delicious. It really lived up to the praise it receives on Yelp.
I give this place a 3/5 because aside from the Toronto Roll, everything was mediocre. I was also disappointed that they weren't serving uni that day but was advertising a Uni Roll promotion.
