| - I tried to like it based on reviews...but was not impressed whatsoever.
The food is super expensive and did not taste as great as the price.
Beef tataki- it was good, 8 thin slices, probably the best thing we ordered.
Pressed sushi - okay so..I don't understand this concept of sushi with too much mushy rice and a super thin layer of seared whatever it is. The waiter didn't explain what each were and we couldn't tell either lol and with that price danggggggg girl
Red tuna carpaccio- slightly fried which gave it a nice crunch. Tasted like a normal red tuna roll, wasnt wowed and could've lived without it.
Octopus- mediocre slices of Octopus with red onion. Honestly, the onions was the main star here.
Specialty Kiu lobster roll - it was good, but wasn't anything special. Tasted like any other lobster roll (I.e the one at Kibo)
Miso cod - nice and tender, great Miso taste, the only problem was there was no crispness to it as you usually do with the skin
Garlic shoyu ramen - he brought out the bowl and I legit asked is this a small? Nope it was a regular for 11$ . There are so many other great ramen place in downtown, especially black ramen at sansotei if you are looking for great garlic taste. The broth was good, the 2 thin as heck slices of pork were nearly non existent, egg was great, 3 pieces of bamboo shoots yayyyy me.
Anyhow, we skipped on their offer of the 2 dessert they had and went downstairs to grab some cha time.
Overall this restaurant was a big Merp.
For the same quality, go to Kaka. It's all you can eat sushi buffet, has the same quality food (even pressed sushi for those who like that stuff) , and is cheaper.
