| - Decided to try based on all the good reviews. Turned out to be very good, especially blow torch sushi - we had party of 4 and all of us liked it a lot. Other sushi was good too, but this kind we tried for a first time, and it has amazing combination of raw fish and seared smoke taste. To our surprise they brought one plate called "weekend special" which we did not order, when we tried to correct them they said they bring it to every table. My initial thought was - why they would do it in AYCE place where you can order anything you want anyway.
Since it had 4 kinds of blow torch sushi's we decided to try it anyway. It turned out to be amazing and we wanted to order more, and some choices (such as scallop blow torch sushi) were not on a menu, so we had to ask our server. They said that this special is one per table only, so we could not order it anymore. The only kind of blow torch sushi I would not recommend - beef sushi, it was OK, but I would not call it real sushi.
Another important point - if you plan to visit this place during weekend evenings, between 5:30 and 9 pm, book reservations at least three weeks in advance. Before 5 or after 9 you can come without reservation.
Lobster bisque - also liked a lot, it comes in very small pot, you may want to order 2 right away. Another highlight - garlic shrimps, they were amazing. We tried also pretty much every dessert selection and it was very good too.
Keep in mind, while pictures may show several sushi pieces, they bring exactly one piece of sushi or sashimi per order unit, so order appropriate number of units right away.
Small complaint - grilled squid took a lot of time to prepare, and they brought it together with dessert. However, it was amazing too, and that's why I think this restaurant still deserves 5 stars overall.
