Was very anxious to try this place as it took quite some time for them to open after making the announcement that they were coming. It was a bit disappointing though.
High points would be that the atmosphere was pretty cool and the staff was very nice. Also the flavor of the food was quite good. But nothing made me say wow I can't wait to come back. Also, it was expensive for what you get. My ramen bowl had a total of three pieces of pork in it. The noodles and the broth were good but basically it was a very expensive bowl of soup.
Also the drinks were so small. I thought I was being punked when they were being served to us. The margarita glass was a tiny goblet that was smaller in diameter than the soy sauce dish that accompanies the chopsticks. The tiny orange that was floating in it as a garnish was the size of a nickel. The manager was very nice about it and first suggested that the volume of fluid in the glass was similar to that of a regular martini glass which was kind of laughable. He offered to give us another round for free but that wasn't really the point. They are going to have a very difficult time surviving in this market if they serve margaritas the size of shot glasses for $12. Also, others in my party felt like the menu was confusing and they didn't know what they were ordering. I understand this place does very well in Tucson but they're going to have to step up their game if they want to make it in Scottsdale Quarter.
