| - Horry crap.
Only "con" of the night was the inattentive staff...but after my waiter explained that the head chef had to run out for an emergency that afternoon and also graciously comped my drink, there was literally nothing to complain about.
Cozy, charming, and DELICIOUS. You get to watch all your food get made right in front of you, and boy do they deliver.
Definitely get the hamachi...grapefruits and yellowtail are two of my most favoritest things in life, and tonight they came to me united on a silver platter (well, white actually). The saikyo yaki (black cod) was melt-in-your-mouth amazing, so you must order this as well.
My other plates weren't so amazing...but were still in the realm of yummy. I had the sashimi of the day, which was a Korean hirame (flounder). Can't really blame them much for the shortcomings here, as the fish is just naturally chewy and kinda tough. My dessert was "chocolate tofu" (aka mousse) with green tea and candied blood oranges...not too great of a mixture if you ask me, but I get excited whenever anyone says blood orange, so I couldn't help myself.
Anyway. Great food, great staff, great setup. Bravo.
