Haven't been back to this place in half a year. A lot has changed since the last visit. Last time I came the prices increased and they had got rid of one of the don bowls, and that was one of my favorite one too. The Karage Don. They now give you the choice of getting a side of karage and a bowl of rice. I believe it will still come out to be cheaper than buying a don bowl which is around $10-$12 now... before it used to be $9- $9.50 only.
Inflation does make a huge difference..... So I had went for lunch hoping to get karage since I was craving that, and I know donburi was a pretty good place to go for it since i've had it several times in the past. Unfortunately, the staff or kitchen was not serving anything that was not don bowls.......
That really sucked, since I had ordered the bbq don bowl and it's still chicken so I don't see how it's more difficult to make karage... which is also chicken but deep fried.....
The staff had changed since the last time I came. The staff were more friendly before but not this time around. They have more unfamiliar faces from before and one waitress can barely communicate and understand english..
I'd probably come back here one more time for dinner next to see if there is any difference from my lunch experience but if it turns out to be disappointing once again, Donburi, you guys aren't what it used to be and that's really disappointing....
