This meal was really great! I made a reservation for 6:30 and I'm glad I did because even on a Thursday they were busy. We were seated right away. Since the restaurant used to a house it's very cozy intimate. Our server was really nice and explained the menu to us and gave us a rundown of the specials.
We got:
Teeter Tots-these were incredible. I usually don't like tofu but there wasn't any of that funky tofu taste and the texture was perfect. They're a total bargain for $6.00 a serving.
Yellow tail ceviche-The yellow tail was amazing but I found the citrus to be a little too strong for my taste.
House cured salmon-This was by far my favorite, I could have eaten two plates of it alone. The salmon was perfect, the basil oil was delicious and the soy glazed almonds added a perfect crunch. They should consider offering the soy glazed almonds on their own, they were absolutely delicious.
The sashimi special of Kanpachi-It was really good, it kind of reminded me of himachi with a little bit of a firmer texture. Their wasabi is also really good.
Soft shell crab salad-this was my husband's favorite. The crab was cooked perfectly and the salad it was served on was delicious and a perfect foil to the crab. The only issue was when you got down to the bottom of the salad the citrus dressing was a little overwhelming.
The tofu chocolate mousse-This was delicious! I loved the candied orange they served it with and if the waiter hadn't told us I would have never known there was tofu in it. They serve it with green tea ice cream. Neither my husband nor I much cared for the green tea ice cream but it's nothing against them we're just not green tea fans.
The orange fritters-This was one of the best desserts I've had in a long time. The fritters were amazing. They weren't greasy and tasted divine. I think it was served on a red bean caramel which was insane. We cleaned the plate and were fighting over it! It also came with a scoop of jasmine tea ice cream which was unbelievably good.
Even though I wasn't a huge fan of all the dishes I'm still giving them 5 stars and this is why. The service was impeccable. Usually when you go to a restaurant like this that serves food in waves the timing is really bad, but their timing was PERFECT. We never waited more than a couple of minutes for the next wave of food to come to our table after we were done with a dish. A couple of times the next dish came out within seconds of finishing.
