| - I went two weeks ago and sat outside. Glass of wine, the "Angry Bird" sushi and the tamago.
The tamago came out in a martini glass - gorgeous presentation - two pieces of triangled egg, with two tempura wrapped shrimp. Absolutely wonderful. The Angry Bird was also delicious. The problem that night was that there were 100's of tiny flies swarming about. After my first sip of wine, the first fly decided to sip it as well. Then a second, third and forth.
The waitress explained there was nothing she could do. "The management will not allow us to take charges off of the bill. If we do, it comes out of our pay." I paid $12 for a glass of wine that I never drank.
Last night I returned and sat inside. My guest ordered the hibachi shrimp ($7.) Not sure exactly what we were expecting, but it wasn't 6 pieces of grilled shrimp on a lettuce leaf. I ordered the Tamago again, but this time I received plain, ol' tamago. When I asked what I received two weeks prior, the waitress (the same one I had two weeks ago) had no idea what I was talking about. I described it, drew a photo, but nothing - no idea what I was talking about.
The Lemon Drop was strong - perhaps too strong. My guest couldn't get past the first 2 sips.
$40 for a cocktail that was too strong, 6 pieces of shrimp, 3 pieces of plain tamago, and some good Angry Bird sushi.
I wish them luck, but all early signs point to being closed within a year.
