| - Looking for a place to eat lunch and saw a review here saying the original owner is back. They changed management several times and didn't know which one...
I used to come here a lot when it used to be Tokyo Express... It was always quick, inexpensive and decent food. Great place to come for a quick lunch. Food quality was similar to food court at any highway rest area in Japan. Then, they went through renovation and changed to Eastwind. Food still tasted the same but with slight price up, still reasonable.
Around 8 years ago, food quality became inconsistent, I ordered chicken katsu don several times and it became hit or miss. Such a basic food to cook but couldn't produce the same taste consistently, I quit coming here all together.
After a long hiatus, I tried their katsu bowl again and tasted what I remember, back to decent again. Miso soup on the other hand, I tasted hondashi, a bit too much of instant dashi, I could be wrong but that's what I tasted. For some reasons, it also tasted sweet. I don't understand, but it was only $.50. No complaints for what I paid.
This place is quick, inexpensive and decent food for the price you pay. If I happen to be in the area, I may come back again.
