| - I would give this place zero stars if I could. To anyone who gave this place more than one star, have you eaten sushi before? Have you been to a restaurant before? I would love to visit whatever rock you're living under.
As soon as I sat down, I realized right away that this restaurant owner does not care about their business. The menus were disgusting and dirty to the point where it was hard to see what was in the pictures. My bf and I decided to get the chirashi because it seemed to have a good variety based on the photo but when we ordered, the lady told us they only had salmon. I actually had no idea what to say. As much as I like salmon, in what world is it ok to show a photo with about 5-6 different kinds of fish and then tell the customer you have NONE of those except one? Here's an idea, why don't you replace those filthy-looking menus and put pictures of what you actually serve. Anyways, I wanted to leave at that point but my bf says hey maybe the food will be ok.
Yeah...no. So my bf's chirashi comes. Do you know what the word chirashi means? It literally means "scattered" so chirashi means that the ingredients are supposed to be scattered over a bed of rice. We were made aware that their only ingredient was salmon but still expected it to be a lot of salmon sashimi served over rice as shown in the photo. Instead my bf gets a few random pieces of salmon on rice, salmon skin hand roll, a maki roll and one sad shrimp tempura. I got a salmon set with udon and it was the exact same as my bf's minus a few nigiri. Seriously, what is with this place and salmon? We were even served salmon as an appetizer. Does the owner own a salmon farm? Who knows.
So I sat there, eating my plain udon (it literally tasted like nothing, and my bf who eats udon at least 3x a week would not touch it after one bite) and staring up at a photo of all the different kinds of fish used to make sushi, as if the owner was telling me "you want to eat this? Well here's some salmon". I thought it was funny that they serve party trays as well. A party tray of only salmon sushi apparently.
The salmon nigiri was also so sloppily made. I just happened to watch a buzzfeed video last night about random people learning to make sushi and honestly, what they were able to achieve in one day looked better than what this shop owner made for us after years of running this place. As if our entire experience was not bad enough, the chef making the sushi also handled our cash.
I had an iced coffee in the car and as soon as we were done eating, I drank all of it to get the taste of that meal out of my mouth. If you are so broke that you cannot pay $2 more for decent sushi, then don't eat sushi. Don't come here.
