| - This place wasnt terrible, but i dont know if i would beg to come back.
We arrived to an almost empty restaurant....and we were welcomed by a sign that said "wait to be seated....including the sushi bar."
I waited for a few minutes, and then told the person i was with that i had to go to the bathroom. While it was clean, it had an odd smell to it.
Finally, after arriving and going to the bathroom, we were seated at the sushi bar.
We saw our waitress twice.
When she dropped off our drinks, and when we paid the bill.... she told us to give our order to the chefs. I understand that this is part of sitting at the bar....but, we didnt even get her to refill our water.
The chefs, werent really personable. Didnt talk to us. Thats part of sitting at the bar, isnt it? To socialize? They didnt even smile at us.
We ordered a screaming o salad, orange crush, bonzai and the surf and turf roll.
The screaming o salad was wonderful. The fish was super tender , and the sauce had just enough zing with crunchy radish underneath.
The bonzai roll and the orange crush (with lemon slices) were okay, but not memorable. I prefer the Ashley Roll at Spicy Tuna in henderson....larger slices of lemon....which gives a lot more POP of flavor.
The shining roll for us was the surf and turf roll, which seared steak. It had just enough sweet and spicy.
By this time, i guess someone the chefs, and other employees knew sat at the bar next to us...because even employees were coming out of the kitchen to talk to this lady. Luckily for us, it brought another waiter to refill our waters... but then we were ignored even more by the chefs because they wanted to talk to their friend.
We ordered a last minute hand roll.... which was just handed over to us.... it wasnt put in a plate, or even had a napkin underneath it.
So, the food was okay, but the staff is just what crushes me. Like... i know im not your friend. ....but, I'd appreciate a smile.
Thanked the chefs, paid and left.
6/30.
Got a message from the owner, who told me that they have the lowest prices in town.... okay, well, I'd rather pay more for sushi AND be treated like a guest than pay less AND be ignored. If i wanted to be ignored, I'd just do take out .
Honestly, it just felt like a bunch of excuses for the chefs not speaking to me.... Posted picture of the message.. your restaurant isnt the only restaurant thats busy...and believe me, your chefs sure seemed 100% when their friend walked in!!!
