I usually don't go to sushi places, but I did not decide tonight. My friend craved for sushi.
I was uneasy since there was a wait and was told at first that it would be 30+mins.. We waited and was seated in less than 20. We got a nice seating in the bar area. After being seated, I was ready to eat. I was amused by the ayce rules. 60 mins. I was curious what would happen if I went over by 5 mins? I absolutely loved how great the ayce menu was. Side dishes and dessert?? dang! I am sold.
Nice because I felt like i had my own sushi chef. We told him different items to prepare for us. Very nicely presented and the fish felt fresh. I like that because I have had poor experience at other places. For an ayce, I see why there's a line outside. I enjoyed the 624, baked sushi which I haven't had before. Very unique and hot! The snow crab was a little dry. I didn't like it. Friend was craving for salmon and we over ordered. Regardless, it was very delightful. I usually have a hard time with rare fish, but it wasn't an issue tonight. House was very efficient on getting our side dishes. We had very awkward request. We had ice cream in the middle of our meal. Sushi chef thought we were done. I tried some lychee sorbet, very tasty but not for me. I did enjoy the special mochi mango ice cream. Friend was full, but I told her it was amazing. She managed to intake half of it.
Service was nice, Sushi Chef was friendly and chatty. Overrall, a great atmosphere. Not made for large groups.
