I have to agree that this place has gone down a notch. Gone are the days of half-priced wine bottles on Saturdays and insanely good wine specials and here are the days of "Barefoot" brand wine tastings (yea they actually did that). You will also notice that their once fully stocked wine selection is now a little bare. To be fair the changes probably needed to be made to stay afloat but I can still gripe a teeny tiny bit.
This is not saying I do not like press, because I do. I will continue to go there as often they have really great live music and the last time I went I enjoyed a 5 sample saki tasting for free! The saki was actually pretty darn good too! It's not all Barefoot, whew!
I will say my favorite Press roll was a little to heavy on the condiments last time but it might have just been the chef because normally it is spot on!
