| - Fellow Yelpers, believe the hype, Japanese food is not at its best at Kyo (which in English means today). Not only the food was a meh, the staff was also inattentive- I had to stop a waiter for water after sitting down for quite some time.
Opted for the bibimbap with marinated hamachi fish, egg and kimchi (the menu read "vegetables"). It came only tepid. I wouldn't mind if there's not a raw yolk in the center.. Haru sushi, a combination roll of tuna, salmon, albacore, kanikama (imitation crab stick), tobiko, rolled with cucumber, was flooded in sauce. But hey in the restaurant's justice, who cares whether the sashimi was fishy and the sauce was way salty after wolfing down much alcohol. It's a bar after all.
The service was very slow - considering the bar was only half full, can you imagine waiting 20 plus mins for your one starter and 55 mins for your entree? And the waitress (aka. bartender) was very impatient when I asked her to check on my entree and that showed on her face. Viola... Another 20 minutes flipped by after she told me that my dish "was on the way." haha, I blamed myself for not trusting more the previous Yelp ranking. :(
