| - Economical but only so-so sushi...
I had tried Kyoto years ago and found it pretty disappointing in terms of sushi quality, but since it has remained open, I decided to give it another try in case I had simply had a poor initial experience.
I have now tried it twice in two weeks, and it still is a generally disappointing experience. While the lunch menu prices are great, the sashimi quality remains off. The first week it just tasted bland, and the second week is was bland, overly wet and spongy in texture to the point that I was slightly nervous about eating it.
Both times I had the Sashimi lunch special which is nicely priced. Each time, my miso soup was barely warm, and not very flavorful.
The first week I also had a spicy tuna hand roll, which was substantial in size, but totally lacking flavor and spice. The tuna preparation was generally incorrect.
Service was just ok, and both times my server failed to check back with me after delivering my food to be sure it was ok.
Perhaps the cooked dishes are a better choice.
