Have been to this sushi place for many many years. The sashimi plate that we like to order was about $42 dollars in the olden days (still have the picture taken at that time). Price for this sashimi plate has been increased many times over the years which is understandable and acceptable.
However when I went back there last week, I found the price has been increased again to $63. Well that's alright but the quality of the fish (have to emphasize QUALITY) is the worse I ever had. The thickness of each piece is so thin that I can almost see through my friends sitting across me. I can't believe this is coming from a Japanese Chef (who is also the owner). If he doesn't know the standard thickness of a sashimi, I would suggest he go back to Japan and learn from beginning again. The standard thickness of each piece of sashimi should be between 1/2 to 3/4 inch depends on the type of fish that they served you. What I was getting was about 1/4 inch for all these basic fishes like salmon, tuna, yellowtail...etc.
Folks if you are looking for authentic sushi or sashimi, I suggest you think twice before you go. If you don't know much about sushi or sashimi and don't really care about their quality, there's still hundreds of Japanese restaurants out there way better than Aoyama.
I am so disappointed with them and I would just spread the words to everyone I know not to go to Aoyama. It is a shame to eat Japanese food with that price and quality.
