| - Despite the fact that this location just recently opened, it was completely unacceptable as a franchise. I don't know why, but the sashimi they provided was actually room temperature and borderline warm. It was disgusting - I've been to a lot of sushi places before and I can absolutely guarantee everything I've tasted today was questionably unsafe.
I've been to the other KB sushi locations before and I've been very pleased about it - this was a complete let down.
To start off, we've had the beef tataki as appetizers. The beef tataki was pretty much cooked through, hardly beef sashimi as it should be. The shrimp tempura that it came with did not come with any tempura sauce and it had a lot of batter on it.
When the sashimi started to come, it was placed on a bed of ice that was already melting. All of the sashimi (salmon, white tuna, tuna, scallop, octopus, squid which was yellow [see pictures]) were warm. At first, I thought that I'd let that forego and maybe it was a bad batch for whatever reason. During my second order, again all of the sashimi was warm but I couldn't help but felt the need to speak up why the squid sashimi was yellow.
Now for all I am afraid of - all of the sashimi again, was warm. I asked the manager at the time that the squid looks weird - that it should be all white. At first, he told me that the squid probably touched something which is why it is yellow. I asked well, why is the whole batch yellow then? It is not just a single piece. He went back to the chefs and then had the audacity to tell me that "the squid batch is probably from whichever ocean it came from, these are 'naturally occurring' colours". Absolutely appalled by his explanation, I decided to take the review here and inform other Yelpers before coming to this restaurant that this is currently what the quality of it is at.
I am extremely disappointed with this restaurant and I know that I will not be returning back for a long while.
