| - I don't know how long this place has occupied their space, but from the decor, I have a feeling that this place used to be something else. A buffet maybe. This ain't Los Angeles, why would anyone dedicate a giant floor space to sushi with so much competition?
I feel like I'm gonna get mugged every time I enter the parking lot. It's far in the back, with poor lighting, and uneven pavement.
Once inside, you'll quickly realize this doesn't look much like the other Japanese restaurants. The seating are arranged in way which resembles more of a Western venue, than an Eastern eatery. A good portion of the place is occupied by useless decor, like giant wall mounted sushi boats, and fake plants. There is a section where the chef cooks and flips the food in front of you at a threatening distance..what's that called again?
The menu is extensive. I spent fifteen minutes reading through it, and still had trouble deciding on what to order. We ended up getting the "Love Boat." Considering it was three guys, I felt a bit awkward.
When the ship arrived, there wasn't as much love that was aboard as we'd hoped. Especially with the price we're paying.
I wasn't comfortable here, it feels like I should have been eating something else, like, barbecue duck or something. I think I smell an air of pretentiousness here. Definitely not your regular sushi experience.
At least one can fall back on the fact that all the staff here were Chinese. At least something made sense.....
The food was average. The service was alright. The environment was ineffective. The crowd were all into their late forties. This place really should be turned into an Mandarin or something.
What does Tako even mean?
