| - So I have eaten here several times now all at happy hour. While the menu selection and pricing for happy hour is attractive and the potential atmosphere on the patio is inviting...the food consistently underwhelms. the very first time I ate here was over a year ago and i was pleasantly surprised with "good" quality rolls, satay, pot stickers (not the best but good), and decent drinks. I resolved to try it again. Fast forward 7-8 months later we move to Mesa AZ and I excitedly tell my wife about this "great happy hour place near our new house!" What ensues is like some farce or comedic nightmare. Happy Hour 4 x times in 2 months. visit #one...poorly constructed rolls falling apart, greasy calimari, and super sweet drinks. Not good...chalk it up to a bad night. Visit #2 same experience with the same menu. Hmmm. that was pretty disappointing. Visit #3 Birthday Happy hour with wife and daughter...but again, poorly constructed rolls (loose and falling apart), gamey tasting sushi, avocado rolls had no flavor and almost cold, calamari barely fried...pale white batter full of grease yet again (oil not hot enough), edamame almost raw and hard, drinks tasted like sugar water, to top it off we all got sick that night (yep out the back end) ..AND our mathematician of a waitress somehow calculated a super great tip... charged our card 70 dollar tip on a 90 dollar bill. this was saturday night and didn't catch it until Sunday when I looked at my bank account online Receipt was accurate but input to till was wrong....walked in to restaurant on Monday to get it fixed and share my experience. Had to call them again the next day just to get an answer on the overcharge. 1 week to fix charge and sent us two 10 dollar gift cards. Way to serve the customers who got sick, overcharged and underwhelmed experience. 4th visit. Wife and I decide to use the gift cards and give it one more try (you know, we are hopeful because we like the concept and we think the recent "spank" woke them up)...happy hour. wave roll, voodoo roll, margehrita pizza, edamame, drinks. I'll cut to the chase...no one there gives a "Sh&t" about the food. Not the cooks, managers, or servers not quality control...very evident... Drinks are a watery, sugary mess, kind of like hopped up Powerade Zero, sushi cooks (not chefs) need a lot of help and training and someone going "Gordon Ramsay" on their ass, rolls are loose and look like they are thrown together by a toddler...do they even know what a roll is?, pizza crust soggy and wet with balsamic vinegar (it's called "crust" folks) and once again edamame hard and raw. Sorry 4 strikes and you are out. Too bad, because if the food was made properly by someone who cared (and perhaps even tasted it before sending it) and the drinks were made by a bartender that knew how to balance alcohol with juice and syrup...you might actually have something. Do not waste your money here because of half price apps and drinks...i would rather pay full price somewhere else and have an enjoyable experience. I don't know what the other locations are like in this chain, but this location is riding on fumes of past success. Don't waste your hard earned dough.
