| - It is an awfully small place here! We arrived at 5:30 and was able to pick any seat in the restaurant.
Unfortunately my friend was not much in the mood for sushi and preferred something fatty and filling (like potatoes and gravy). So we settled for the Katsu don (his) and Sashimi don (mine).
The sashimi don is sashimi on top of rice, there was: salmon, crab meat, halibut maybe?, and very sweet tamago egg. It came with hot sauce on the side, which I poured into my bowl. It was alright, pretty good with the rice... but halfway through I poured in soy sauce and enjoyed that a lot more.
With salmon and rice, sashimi don is pretty filling. Definitely not potatoes + gravy filling, but good enough for a dinner. I didn't find this dish that special.... Although the sashimi is quite fresh, I've had better sashimi don elsewhere.
My friend's katsu don (chicken or pork, with rice. He had chicken) was so-so. We both thought the chicken was a bit plain.
Overall, it's okay food. About $20 (tips, taxes) per person. They have better lunch combos and prices than dinner.
At 7, the tiny restaurant was packed. New customers coming in were told to wait, and those in a hurry snatched up the takeout menu. The staff were extremely nice, they knew we were leaving (and thanked us because they were getting busy) but they didn't rush us AT ALL to pay. In fact, we sat there with our credit cards..... and then realized we were supposed to get up and walk towards the cashier.
