| - Came here a short while ago with friends. I would rate it 2.5 stars; 5 for the service, 0.5 for atmosphere and -3 for my disappointment in the food.
Good points:
Service was very good. Waiter was friendly and engaged us in genial genuine conversation. Definite plus there.
Atmosphere and decor is very chic, good for a romantic night out.
Most dishes were good, and had some creativity in terms of putting ingredients together.
Bad points:
Portions are very very small for the price point, which is not unexpected for a place like this so I can let that go. However, having spent a little over $100/person including drinks, we were actually still hungry afterwards and ended up going to McDonald's.
Not impressed with the sushi because they did not use the proper short grain rice, instead cheating out with long grain one more commonly found with Chinese dishes. In fact, it was pretty much the same rice used in T&T sushi platters, which I paid $10 for. I found the rice was not flavourful either.
The fish itself was good quality, but about the same if you were to go to any other moderately priced restaurant.
Lighting is very very dark. Difficult to see the food or the person across the table. The hallway to the washrooms was completely unlit, which made it very difficult to see the unmarked black doors.
I definitely would not return to this place in case you can't tell.
