Came here for Summerlicious and will not return as management brings down the place.
Lots of staff moving about and plates were cleared and water filled frequently.
Came with table for 2 and the sashimi was served in a large japanese bowl filled with ice, which was nice touch.
Lamb fatty and delicious while the cod was nice mix of miso marinade.
Gelato and mousse I believe were homemade (server was not sure if they were. I was surprised server did not know)
When the bill came there was a mysterious 'Vero Still' charge for $1. Apparently this is some water from a $700 machine as was explained to me. However I had ordered a drink for dinner and barely had a few sips, not to mention nobody had advised that they were charging for water. Charging for water I did not drink. Had I known I would have not ordered my drink. I don't mind paying if I ordered or drink/eat it known upfront. This falls under the 'nickel and dime' category.
We had actually asked for the regular menu also, however they said it was not available for Summerlicious. Meaning we were willing to spend MORE money here to try other items to supplement our experience.
The water charge was eventually refunded by a manager who came down from the upstairs (seems the brazilian portion probably is more important and brings in more money). He defended the water charge even though we didn't mind paying if it was disclosed upfront.
Anyhow, would never return again which is a shame as food was decent. At least we got our 'Vero Still' charged refunded to keep us quiet, but maybe thats how they weed out their customers. We don't need to eat here again anyways, just disappointed that we could've eaten elsewhere with 100's of other worthy places to try.
Onto the next!
