| - I would give this place a 3.5.
The aburi sushi was very good but overall there seemed to be something lacking. I got the premium aburi set ($32).
The appetizers came with edamame, salmon wakame, and cucumber cabbage (?) salad. I felt the appetizers were pretty weak and bland. It would've been nice that instead of 3 'salad' type dishes, they would do a soup instead. The edamame was very bland and wet, a bit disappointing. The cucumber salad was very vinegary but had no other flavor. The salmon wakame was again too vinegary, I felt like there were too many vinegary dishes for the appetizer.
The main aburi sushi set was very good though, each one had interesting toppings and a different flavor profile.
They ended it with 2 handrolls which again, felt underwhelming and also awkward to eat since it was a long fat roll that you had to eat with your hands. There wasn't much in the hand roll except salmon/crab. After the great aburi sushi set, ending it with this seemed lacking. If they ended it with something sweet, it would've been a good ending.
The service was okay, they seemed a bit awkward and confused but I get it, they just opened.
Not sure if I would be back, maybe if they improve certain things I will give them another chance. The decor was beautiful though!
