What we had: Chochin Bento (Karaage, sashimi, eel on sushi rice), Premium Nigiri sushi set, green tea cake, hazelnut cake
Taste: 9.5/10
The sushi and sashimi were perfect, fresh fish with just the right amount of rice. Karaage (deep fried chicken) was moist and flavourful. Eel on rice was succulent. Both the cakes were very good too, but did not meet our expectations (based on what other reviewers wrote). The green tea flavor was definitely on point, but the cake itself was a little lacklustre (dry). Would rate 10/10 for taste if it were not for the cakes.
Value: 1/10
26$ for the chochin bento and 38$ for the sushi set (these both came with salad, coffee/tea and a piece of cake). The sushi set came with 8 sushi and 2 rolls (6 pieces). While we were somewhat full by the end of the meal (we ate slowly), Steven probably could have ate everything by himself and still have room for more.
**Average cost per diner: 40$ After Tax+Tip
Service / Convenience: 8/10
Authentic Japanese restaurant with a very soothing environment. We actually got to sit near the sushi bar and got to see some live action sushi making. The place is fairly clean, servers are very friendly.
The restaurant itself is fairly small, and tables are close together. It wasn't very crowded when we went (around 7:30 pm), however, as other reviewers stated, its better to have a reservation.
Would go back? Maybe, but only after try other similar restaurants to compare first.
Would recommend to friend? Yes, great place for a date or special occasion.
Similar places: None for now
**Disclaimer: Average cost per diner constitutes the amount (per person) we eat to get full without drinks. Total cost is usually divided between 2 diners, one of whom can regularly eat 7 slices of XL pizza (16") in one sitting.
