I like to sit at the counter I have no problem with the sushi chefs, they do their job well and are very attentive. I was once asked by a server not to ask the chef for tempura but I didn't see the waiter for a bit and I love shrimp tempura! The next time I went there the girls asked us what we would like to drink and thats all she asked us. I did'nt want to bother so I just order items like rolls. The waitress came by to refresh water but never NEVER asked me what I would like to order. My boyfriend sat there and watched me be to shy to order from her.
