Typically, Umiya would be my go to spot if I know Goyemon will be crowded. I attempted my usual Umiya trip a few nights ago and left after 15 minutes of there being open tables and not being sat down. I realized the boys working were a bit new, as the ladies who sit people down and take their orders weren't working that night.
The ladies working know me already and the treatment that night by the males were pretty bad. It looks like they were overwhelmed and I saw that people were waiting to order again but weren't being taken care of. So instead of anticipating a bad night of sushi, I left to go to Sushi Bay instead, where I know there wouldn't be a wait to order.
Take notes from the female co-workers guys..only go when the ladies are working.
