| - Came here on impulse the other day as the bf was starving. Felt kind of silly walking around the building trying to find their entrance (as there are multiple doors that don't open). The decor here is really knick knacky, with a sign by their toys stating their thanks for not taking them out of the restaurant. We were sat in the back corner of the restaurant, I strongly advise to bring a jacket or sweater that you don't mind smelling like bbq, as it gets a bit chilly from their ventilation system.
I was kindly greeted by broken dirty chopsticks as I pulled them out of the package. Totally unappetizing. The buser didn't seem to give much concern when I pointed this out to them. They simply gave me a new pair and walked away (I had the benefit of being able to keep the dirty pair - yay).
Forward to the food. I enjoyed coming here because there was the choice of korean bbq. The meat came out in good proportions. There was major confusion for us as we didn't know what was being placed in front of us from our order... we played rounds of "guess the meat" as we ate.
We got a good selection of hot food items as well. Their portion sizes are small, but there are lots of items to choose from, so no need to fill up on just one item the first round.I don't see many locations with "Tempura crab meat" anymore, so I loaded up on those... so yummy! Their "Ika Karaage" was decent, but like many of their other hot dishes, it got gross within five minutes of sitting on the table. Their hot dishes are simple, no additional garnishes on them at all (i.e. agedashi tofu - seriously just deep fried tofu with a soy based sauce). I highly discourage getting the "Curry Crispy Chicken"; it was watery and just gross... seriously off-putting.
Last but not least was their "sushi & sashimi" selection. I'm sad to report that the restaurant limits one order of sashimi per adult per time. Limited selection of sashimi, but we usually go for the sake anyways. The portion sizes are once again small, theres the occasional piece of sashimi that just looks... weird and different from the others in the set... it tasted fine though... so meh. i typically get the tamago from any sushi place I hit. The tamago here seemed very rubbery, and it was a bright yellow color and tasted very sweet. Not the worst I've tasted, but not what I would expect from a sushi joint.
We were a bit over ambitious when we ordered the "inside out roll"s. We ordered seven orders of the rolls our first go around. There were no descriptions listed on the order sheet... so we hoped for the best. What came to us was a beautiful plate of rolls with neon coloured sauces on top of them. We basically did sushi russian roulette with these rolls. I didn't enjoy them at all... in truth they were all quite hard to stomach.
I've never had an occurrence where I've put a mango roll in my mouth and wanted to spit it out right away.... my mouth was coated with the neon yellow sauce which i I took to be mango mayo. Quite unpleasant. As with the other food items, the sushi quickly got gross after sitting on the table for a short period of time. Another nono... never should I get salsa on my rolls... ever. You don't know you've hit rock bottom until you've tasted that.
We ended our night here with a quick round of desserts. The "mango tapioca milk" was very thin, and we got random exploding boba in it as well. I have a sweet tooth, but even this was too sweet for me. I'm glad to say I had no complaints about their ice cream though. Theres seven different flavours to choose from; loved their mango ice cream!
Would probably come back again just to fill up on mysterious meat and ice cream...
