| - I just want to update my review on my experience on the 65 dollar omakase course (as seen in the pictures). Overall, great food, but for me the sushi and sashimi selection (which to me was the most important) was a bit underwhelming.
First off, Appetizer Salad. "An appetizer salad made with seaweeds, topped with mountain potatoes and King crab, and seasoned with mayo-sesame dressing. A course special salad!" I was surprised that this was the most memorable salad ever.
Usuzukuri: Was ok, a new experience, but somehow it was not for me.
The sashimi consisted of salmon, tuna that was either maguro or medium toro or somewhere in between, sweet shrimp, and what may have been kanpachi (forgot). Overall decent, but I sort of expected more exotic variety (some Uni, Giant Clam, or Scallops) like on the omakase sushi set.
Butter fried Lobster and Shrimp tempura were very good.
The sushi was over all decent (see picture), but I somehow expected more exotic variety. This time there was Uni, but still not on par with the omakase sushi set.
The final was a choice of dessert, and I chose the black bean ice cream. It was also good.
The Verdict:
Very good food overall, but I feel the omakase sushi set is in general a bit better in quality (come on, there's toro!)
This visit for this 65 dollar omakase course, 9/10 for quality, 9/10 for the service, 8/10 for the value. 8.5/10 overall (not an average).
Please see my previous review on the omakase sushi set. I feel that's a better representation of what I feel for this restaurant (since I've ordered a couple more of those since then :) ).
