| - I've driven past this place many times and always made a mental note to try it out. I had a sushi craving today and thought why the hell not?
The good: I walked in and was impressed by the decor. It was warm and inviting and the hostess was nice.
And that's where it ends.
The bad: I was seated and sat there for a good five minutes before I was even approached by a server to take my drink order. 3 of them walked right past me multiple times. And there were MAYBE 4 other patrons there at the time. It was slow, so there's no excuse for that. I eventually ordered the soft shell crab for my appetizer and the Phoenix & New York rolls as my main sushi course. I specifically asked that the soft shell come BEFORE the sushi. I mean, it is an appetizer, right? But NOPE. The sushi came first. After I ate that (which tasted okay. Not bad, but it wasn't anything to phone home about), I waited awkwardly for ten more minutes until the soft shell finally came. It was very subpar, by the way. Really dry. The sauce that came with it was pretty epic, though.
And to add insult to injury, I asked my server to refill my water. He did so without hesitation, although he neglected to put more ice in it. So I washed down the dry soft shell crab with lukewarm tap water. Pleasant, right?
With all that being said, I don't think I'll be frequenting this place again. Which is a shame, because I had such high hopes for it.
