| - If I had previewed Yelp details and reviews, I would have known that Happy Hour was not held on Fridays. But, since we were already here, we decided to stay and so glad we did! We stopped in six weeks prior and were happy with the service and food, so much so that I wanted to try it again before reviewing since there are conflicting ratings. Well, I now feel ready to write a straight-up review based on tonight and last month's visit.
The servers, on both our visits, were attentive and prompt. We over ate and overspent both times because they were on the ball and ready with the drinks, refills, and genuinely wanted to know if things were to our liking and if we wanted anything else. Of course we are easily swayed when our sushi, sashimi and grilled items are delicious! At last month's visit, we ordered a variety of sushi (ngiri, classic and creative rolls) and grilled items. The grilled calamari wasn't just a jumble of rings and tentacles--it was a nice presentation of the entire squid! We also recalled that the yakitori and pork belly sliders were tender and flavorful. Also at last month's visit, we were entertained by watching the teppanyaki chef, Don, conducting his fiery food techniques in such a fun way. Like dinner and a free show.
Tonight, hubby and I ordered enough to feed a small army. Starting with both salmon and maguro (tuna) sashimi, the no-rice rock-n-roll #3 with crab mix/shrimp tempura/wrapped in cucumber, green mussels, and rattlesnack (tortilla wrapped tuna with jalapeno and other spicy ingredients)--we proceeded to devour every morsel, washing it down with hot sake and chilled beer. Because the Scottish salmon was buttery good and the tuna so fresh, we placed another order. The second order was a work of art--I posted pictures because my description can't do it justice--it was a large shallow bowl filled with decorations, greenery and flowers worthy of the Bellagio Conservatory! I had to thank the cute sushi chef for his pretty art. It was so gorgeous I didn't want to dig into it, but we couldn't resist. The tuna was again slices of deep red ocean goodness and the large pieces of Scottish salmon--oh my, we are now devotees of that buttery, delicious salmon. And since we didn't celebrate Fat Tuesday this week, we designated tonight as our Fat Friday, then ordered the Alaskan roll as our dessert.
More than two hours and over $100 later, we waddled out happy, even though we missed Happy Hour by a day. I'm glad to give 5 stars because both our recent visits were enjoyable, with prompt and courteous service, delicious sushi, fresh sashimi, and great grilled dishes.
