| - Even though there were some slight problems, this place gets a 5star because the problems weren't food or service based... I'll explain later. First of all, I want to say that if your only sushi experience is Kanda or other all you can eat buffets, this isn't the place for you. The food is prepared different and the price point is a bit different too. LOL
I called for a reservation and was told we could only sit at the bar. No problem, my fault for waiting last minute to make a reservation. The only problem with sitting at the bar is that the plates they serve the food on are far too large for the small area at the bar. Meaning, my plate was interfering with the lady to my left's personal space.
I ordered the tasting menu (Omakase) for 105$ which replaces a seafood dish with actual sushi. My husband got the braised beef ribs and a 6 piece sushi starter. Everything was incredible. The seafood was so fresh you could actually taste the ocean on them. What made me even more happy was the way the food was presented. Everything was nice on wooden planks, nicely decorated, and perfect pops of color.
Our waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and explained each piece of sushi to me as she set the plate down in front of me. She was quick to offer my husband suggestions on what to eat since he isn't a big fan of sushi (he took me there for my birthday dinner).
As someone in the restaurant business I have to say that it was amazing to see such a knowledgeable staff, a staff that goes above and beyond to help each other out, and most importantly, a CLEAN kitchen! You can see directly into Park's kitchen and that kitchen is spotless!
The only thing I disliked (besides my food invading the personal space of someone else) is that a few times I saw the waiters carrying the food improperly. Basically, a waiter was holding a plank of sushi from the top so his hand is practically touching a piece of sushi. Food should never be handled like that. The same waiter served two bowls of soup with his thumbs in the soup bowl. To me that isn't enough to change the rating froma 5 star to a 4 star because it had nothing to do with the food or my personal service. Just a little something that Chef Antonio can talk to his staff about.
Will I be back, yes for sure. Will I order the same thing? Probably not. Next time I'll just order sushi (maki and nigri) instead of the full tasting menu. I don't like ALL types of sashimi.
