| - Ate a small meal here with 2 friends, and it we ended up with a few "so-so" dishes and some Saporro mixed drinks. To be honest, I probably would've given that meal a 3/5. Then I returned with a group of 8 and racked up a $375 bill, going all out for a Birthday. Going with the big group was an excellent choice (although it had to be at 5:00pm). I was with some out of towners who hadn't heard of the place, so the crazy atmosphere collectively blew everyone's mind. We ordered 4 of the more expensive "Party (B)" meals, and topped it with 4 Udons, 2 Brie Cheeses, 2 Spicy Octopus, 2 Kabocha Korokke, and 2 Itame. We also got the Seven Samurai shots, which to be honest, were not the greatest (syrupy sweet). The Bamboo Sake was a cool gimmick and tasty too. It was more than enough food for all of us (in retrospect, we could've done without 2 Itame and 2 of the Udons). Itame was my least favorite and Gindara was my favorite. The server recommended the black sesame ice cream but we liked the coconut best (green tea was not bad also). Again, not sure how the rest of the table felt, but everyone really enjoyed the meal. There's a reason Guu has hundreds of positive reviews!
