| - If you are looking for a classy Japanese food experience in a casual setting, Kaiseki Yuzu is your place. We came in on a whim and so I am unable to review the actual Kaiseki (yet) because they require a three day notice to arrange the experience. However, dinner was still fantastic.
I ordered the combination called Yuzu kago gozen, which includes sashimi, nigiri, a 6 piece roll, a vinegar dish (it was battered fish for mine), grilled fish, tempura, salad and miso soup. It was $28 and was a LOT of food. It came artfully plated and every element was delicious. As an appetizer we got the house tofu. I've never had homemade tofu before so I have nothing to compare it to, but compared to store-bought tofu it is worlds apart. Silky, smooth, creamy. Super delicious. And it comes with daikon and a special sauce. You'll notice that there are notices on the menu that any extra condiments cost $1 more...it's probably because you'll want to drink that sauce.
Boyfriend got the chirashi bowl, which came with thick slabs of fish. His favorite in there was the hamachi. He even ate the uni even though he normally can't stomach it, which means it must have been fresh.
Looking forward to returning soon for the kaiseki experience. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal here.
