| - Gonna try to be as fair & as level-headed as possible while writing this review (considering I'm pretty annoyed). Friends and I made a reservation for ~14 people. We were told to get there on time because they won't hold our table. Cool! We get there at 6pm - the time of our reservation. My husband and I were the first to place our orders at around 6:20. We ordered the nigiri bento, black dragon rolls and spicy salmon avocado roll. One by one our friends sporadically started getting their food. First gyozas came, then a bowl of udon soup, then a large platter of sushi and rolls, tempura, another order of rolls, then we waited for the 3 last meals... and waited. We asked about our order and was assured that it was coming. Continued to wait. At this point, we've seen people arrive at the restaurant after us, finish eating and leave. At 7:15, our baby was fussing, so we decided to ask them to change our order to take out. The server was nice overall, but offered her explanation as to why the food was coming out slowly: "we're a mom and pop shop. We're not used to having a full house". Well congratulations on the full house, but if you can't handle it, then maybe don't have so many tables?? And why tell us you can't hold our table if you're not expecting a lot of people? At 7:32, we finally got our order. We get home starving. We tear the boxes open... and there's no soy sauce!
Food: Pricey for what you get, presentation of rolls and nigiri sushi was nice, but nigiri portion was modest. Spicy salmon was pretty tasteless. Ginger and wasabi get a thumbs up. Soy sauce: missing.
In conclusion, I was left hungry and annoyed. Definitely drive a little west on Hwy 7 and eat at Osaka Sushi instead, a mom & pop shop that won't leave you waiting over an hour for your food.
