I've heard rave reviews about the chirashi and dropped by before dinner a few months back, and they wouldn't take my take-out order of chirashi because they were slammed. They had a full house but they don't have that many seats, so I didn't understand why I couldn't wait for my food. I was completely starving that day.
Anyways, I gave it another shot the other day. The chirashi comes out to a whopping $22.60 with tax (imagine even more with tip if I had eaten in!), which is more than what JaBistro sells their version for. To be honest, without considering the price, the portion was great for one person. Lots of fish with variety and veggies. Wish there was some dressing for the veggies. The tuna was amazing, esp the red tuna. Salmon was generous and tasted fresh, but just thawed. There was a blood blob on one piece of sashimi. The sushi rice was well-seasoned and miso soup was great, not a huge portion and not crazy salty. Now considering the price, it's pretty darn steep for one meal and that's what's holding me back from going back there on a regular basis.
