I really wish this place was great, but unfortunately, the decor does not make up for the mediocre sushi and the abhorrent clientele. That place during happy hour reminds me of a Bosch painting, except for populated by yuppies instead of the naked damned. The waitstaff is decent, but the hibachi chefs are kind of weak. If you go on the weekend, you can have an awkward conversation about how loud you pee with the bathroom attendant. I guess there's not a lot of small talk to be had. I have had fun in this place, but I can have fun pretty much anywhere. Oh, and if it is crowded, good luck hearing a word that anybody says.
