| - Their sushi is delicious, and most of the waitresses that work there are very kind and attentive. The food here is so good! The negimaki is amazing. The sushi is great! Everything is delicious.
One thing to look out for is this one girl that works there as a waitress. I don't know her name, but I guess you could describe her as the most conventionally "pretty" young Asian woman there. She is one of the worst servers I've had at a restaurant, ever.
My friend and I used to visit this location once a week for their all-you-can-eat sushi lunch special. This girl had been our server about 3 or 4 times before we started requesting a specific server each time we came. The only time this girl was actually attentive to our table was when we came in as a party of 12. She must have had those dollar signs in her eyes, I'm guessing. This was our first time having her as our server. The bill for our table that time came to about $300. The guy at our table who paid for everyone's meal thought that $25 was a sufficient tip for all of the work she had done. I felt really bad about that tip, so my friend and I slipped her an extra $20. In hindsight, I feel like that's where we "fudged up". I didn't realize it at the time, but now I see that we were only perpetuating her idea that big groups were more important ($$$) than the tables of two or three.
The other 2 or 3 times that she was our server for our table of two or four, she would walk straight past us with a pitcher of water when we had our empty water glasses by the edge of the table so she could see them. She'd walk past to go fill up the glasses of the party of 8 directly next to us. She would then walk back, not look at our table, and ignore our cups again. On each dining occasion with her, we had to walk across the entire seating area where she was just standing around, leisurely chatting with the guys who make sushi, to ask for refills on our water and soda. She let our plates pile up on our table, meanwhile, being completely attentive to her table of 8+. I have to point out to you readers that she has had only had 2 or 3 tables MAX. when we ate there, including our table. So it isn't like she's overwhelmed with too many tables and forgets things. No. She's just really bad at her job. We had this same problem every single time she was our server (with the exception of when we were in our party of 12).
We have recommended our family and friends to try out this place, and the general consensus is that Ivy-eer (that's not how her name is spelled, but that's how it's pronounced) is the best server in that restaurant. We try to request her when we go. She is attentive and friendly.
So, yeah. Great prices on sushi. Friendly waitresses if you don't get "the pretty one". Yummy food!
