| - Very good AYCE sushi.
The owner owned a sushi franchise in Hawaii, so he understand the standards of good food.
Highlights:
- Spicy tuna roll, the REAL version, with Japanese mayo chili pepper mix. If you never tried this real authentic version of spicy tuna (the fake looks bright red from schiracha sauce) then you won't know WHAT you should be craving!
-Hamachi collar. Ask any chef, she/he knows the best part of a fish is the collar (except for toro). The fatty flavorful meat seared crispy on the outside but soft and wonderful on the inside, just like me!
-Miso Cod, soft buttery with mild miso sauce. I like this much better than the traditional miso butterfish which has more shoyu in it. This version is much more delicate.
-Salmon collar, which has an intense amount of fat in the meat. Was pure inddulgence.
-The nigiri - uni, unagi, hamachi, and halibut were all of quality standards.
During the ending though I felt I was overloaded with msg, I think due to the natural fattiness and saltiness of the Hamachi collar, Miso, and salmon collar. Bad move eating all three in one sitting but had to try since it was my first time here. Next time I'll limit myself from indulging in all three.
If they had baked clams with the crusty mayo sauce on top, it would be perfection!
Went on a Wednesday, 2 large groups came in, luckily, when we were nearing the end of our dining experience. This place gets crowded, and for a good reason!
