| - Struggled to decide whether to give this place a 3 or 4 star rating. In terms of overall pleasantness of the servers and hosts, I'd give this place pretty close to a 5/5. It's not fine dining quality service, but regardless of that, everyone is quite pleasant to deal with. The service falls short though when ordering, because for whatever reason, they never quite give you everything that you order. What is up with that? They do something dumb like make their portions of seaweed salad minuscule, so when you try to order 2 orders for every person at the table, they only give you a fraction of what you ask for? Frustrating. THREE times we tried to ask for multiple orders of the chilled tofu (since dumbly enough each order is literally one slice of tofu) and EACH time they only gave us two. And this is ultimately why I decided to give them the lower rating.
The variety of the menu is also where this place shines. There aren't too many AYCE places, especially at this price point, where you'd be able to get some torched sushi. The sashimi was also decent, though not the best that I've had. Apart from that, the food quality is generally just OK. The dessert options had a few unique offerings, including the staple ginger milk (this isn't for everyone) and the ginger creme brulee.
Overall, I wouldn't say I had a particularly negative experience here, but there was some major gripes that mired what otherwise would have been a decently positive experience.
