| - Saturday-dinner time. Arrived around 630pm and we were seated immediately.
iPad ordering- nice to see pictures of each thing and the rolls had a description. Dinner time is very busy so it was difficult to get the attention of the waitstaff if you needed anything outside of the iPad. Also doesn't help that some of them do not understand English.
Within 5 minutes of confirming your first order on the iPad, you start to get parts of your order. We mostly ordered kitchen/ fried foods/ appetizers and the torched sushi. The salmon one was good and of normal size. The others (spicy salmon, tuna and crab) tasted ok but they were the skinniest pieces of sushi I have ever seen. Wasabi mussels were interesting.
It took about 40 minutes to get the whole order, which was when we placed our second order that consisted of the specialty rolls, sashimi and other kitchen foods. Specialty rolls never arrived. Sashimi was not fresh. Ordered fried rice but had to ask 5 times for a fork. By the time the fork came, the rice was cold. Also very difficult to get a teapot refill. Had to ask 3 times.
Since we knew things would take forever, we placed our final order of dessert at 826pm. At 9pm, I finally got the attention of the waitstaff and pointed it out so they quickly brought out the dessert. Black sesame ice cream was interesting. Besides ice cream, there was mango pudding, lychee jello, black current jello and two other puddings that weren't on the menu- green tea and some white milky one. I liked the mango pudding.
So weekend dinner is $28.99 plus tax and a 12% service charge, which explains the crappy service. Why bother doing a good job if you are guaranteed a tip?! And if you pay by card, it's an extra 5%. So if you pay cash it's like $36 but by card it's $38.
Most likely will NOT come back here again.
