| - Won't be back anytime soon . . .
Went back for our second visit, itching to use a gift card that was soon to expire. Arrived shortly after happy hour, and were seated at a high top next to the back door. Not a great table--I immediately noticed the stains on the wall next to the table (soy sauce?). We ordered the pork potstickers, which were tiny and overcooked. I asked for the mustard to come on the side, so they didn't give us any. Next came the hot lips roll--sounded good but looked like a pink mayo-globbed mess, no way to eat with chopsticks, and forget picking it up with your hands! My date liked it, however. I had a little sushi (nigiri), sake and maguro--decent quality. My date had the beef and broccoli, which was decent, and I asked for a side order of the wok vegetables. I expected my vegetables to be a small side dish, but they came out as big as an entree. Quantity, but not quality--they were mushy and sitting in a puddle of soy sauce (couldn't make out any other flavors). Service was so-so, maybe because we were hidden in the corner. I'm glad we had a gift card, or I would have been even more disappointed. Better sushi at AJ's, honestly.
