Love the set up of the dinning area! The huge windows letting in plenty of sunlight gives this place a feel of peace and zen.
Arriving for a late lunch around 2:30 pm. I was the last table for the lunch hour so service was attentive and food came out fast.
Aburi Signature ($30) - 10 aburi pressed sushi + 2 handrolls + 3 small apps.
- The app is just passable. Something that AYCE serves, good to tie you over while waiting for the sushi
- I enjoyed the Aburi Sushi a lot. I like the varieties and they all looked pretty. I though have to guess what condiments and garnish used. I do understand it is difficult for the waitress to explain every single order to every table but some information would have been nice.
- Hand rolls were both a fail. The seaweed was soggy and chewy. The blue crab rolls sounded like a good idea but it was just mushy without contrasting texture and have no flavour aside of fishiness.
I might come back in the future but hopefully they would have solve the "handroll" issues. That seems to be the most common complaint from everyone.
I kind of wish they have a real omakase option. Having the fish listed a printed menu does not feel too omakase.
