Not gonna lie, I feel like I've been spoiled with good sushi/Japanese in the past year so comnig to Etsu was a slight disappointment.
The patio was small, and can fit about three 2-seaters per table. This wasn't bad considering it was just my friend and I. The decor was nice - lots of beautiful flowers everywhere, and the table was nicely set up with this cute/adorable ceramic crane that sat in front of you so you can you place your chopsticks. Didn't get to go inside to see how it actually looks like.
Then we order. Lunch specials - not bad. $8.90 per box/dish. Our waitress brings us water. It was already weird when getting the water -- nice glasses; but disgusting tasting. My friend and I looked at each other and we were so confused about what the heck the taste was in the water. I guess a little chalky tasting.
We decide to both order the spicy roll set because everybody was raving about it. The salad comes, and it wasn't good at all. Don't know what it was - but I was not impressed by it. The miso soup was okay - however, a little too hot for my liking. Not only this - the waitress spilled a it of it on my friend.
We get our sushi -- spicy salmon and spicy tuna. Not bad - was quite filling -- especially for lunch. For the price that we're paying, the quality of the sushi was worth it.
Okay food, but I felt like I've had MUCH better food and service.
