| - I know this place has been around for awhile, and widely loved.
At 5:30 pm on a Friday, it wasn't busy, but the flood was starting. We sat at the bar. Seats are a bit hard to get in and out of if you have someone sitting at the bench next to you.
Ordered:
--- Fried Ika
So good! The breading was light and crispy, not overly greasy. Came with 6 big rings of Ika and lemon slices. I loved it.
--- Tar Tar Yellow Tail
I could eat this allllll day. The yellow tail is in small chunks mixed with an avacado sauce and stacked on fried chips, rice, clover garnish. It's absolutely unique and heavenly. Great mix of textures and flavors.
--- Spicy Tuna Roll
One of the best I've had. They go very very light on the rice. I HATE when sushi comes with more rice than filling - so many places try to use that as a cover for lack of ingredients.
It was so nice that the rice was really only there to wrap the tuna.
--- Seared tofu steak
Did not care of this at all. It's traditional silken tofu style. Only the outside is very lightly seared, so that part came off as a slime. The rest of the tofu steak tasted like nothing. It wasn't marinated; however, it was on a bed of bean sprouts and sauce, which made it bearable. I don't know if I'm just thinking about this dish wrong, but it wasn't for me.
Service was attentive and quick. They move the waiters and waitresses around, so different people were coming to check on us, which I didn't mind. It actually made for a quicker dining experience, which was great for us because we had somewhere else to go.
