| - Just the fact that we dropped in at 10pm on a whim and the fact that they were able to seat us within the next 5 minutes were certainly deserving of star in its own.
We are no strangers to this type of cuisine, so we were excited to see if the hype surrounding Raku is legit. Ordered a little bit of everything: agedashi tofu, kobe beef liver, pork cheek, pork ear, duck w/ balsamic soy sauce, foie gras w/ soy sauce, buttered scallop w/ soy sauce, sea urchin w/ seaweed soup, and a couple of their sashimi specials. Everything was delicious and well-presented!
Timing was a little bit off and the service kind of dwindled down. It was going great at the beginning, but there was a bit of a wait for the rest of our orders, then they all came at the same time. We didn't really care at the time, but for me, it's all about the details. Also, I thought the specials, while certainly fresh and top quality, were still a tad expensive compared to what I had in the past. Next time, we'll probably stick to the menu and save my sashimi cravings when I'm in Kabuto.
