| - My in-laws love coming here because it's nearby, rarely crowded & has good food!
We came in half an hour after the opening time and were seated quickly. I would suggest if you have kids to sit in the little wooden booths because there's a little more privacy & you won't get "why would you bring children to a restaurant" stares, LOL!
Here's the breakdown:
Shrimp Tempura x2 - Always good. Can't go wrong with it. (5/5)
Veggie Tempura x2 - Also delicious, my favorites are the onion & broccoli. There's also big pieces of winter squash where I would normally see sweet potato, so that's different! But my husband loves it, so that's a brownie point. (5/5)
Beef Udon Soup - My FIL enjoyed it, as well as my daughter. They udon noodles were nice and plump. FIL mentioned there was a LOT of cabbage & the broth didn't have its usually flavor. (4/5)
** Note: All dinner plates come with soup, salad, & choice of white/brown rice. **
Dinner Side Soup - Wasn't really a fan? I'm more used to a flavorful miso soup on the side. This was just a simple broth. And it wasn't touched most of dinnertime. (2/5)
Dinner Side Sald - I could honestly just eat this by itself. I love the dressing! And it's a light accompaniment to the main courses we were having.
Beef Short Rib - Came on a hot, sizzling plate. Good meat-fat ratio, and it's a BIG portion. The marinade is just enough to taste, but not too much that your hands are dripping with sauce. (5/5)
Salmon Teriyaki - Perfect for the simple, healthy eater. A good serving of grilled salmon with a side of teriyaki sauce. Salmon was lightly seasoned, which isn't a problem since the teriyaki sauce packs a lot of flavor. I also liked how they put the sauce on the side instead of coating the fish. If you're a fancy eater, it might not be your favorite. (5/5)
NY Steak - Similar to the salmon, but with steak. A lot of meat for your money! (5/5)
Service was prompt, and our server was really sweet. The food came out hot & delicious, with a reasonable wait time. Definitely recommend for something classy without paying a ridiculous price.
