So being Japanese, and a flexible Vegetarian.. I was real excited to visit this place because many people said that they had many vegetarian food. It was NOT one of those places that made me want to come back though unfortunately.
Just because your food is vegetarian, does not mean that it has to be over priced. I ended up spending much more than my regular spending for japanese food, and leaving the place not so full.
I liked their traditional appetizers like Hijiki and Goboo. Their green bean miso was a bit too small, and i think it would taste better with the traditional spinach because the miso sauce can't soak into the green beans.
I got a vegetarian roll that cost the same as a roll with fish, and that got me furious because i didn't realize the price until later. (i don't usually look at the price because i'll pay for good food) but a roll with avocado, pineapple, spinach, should be like 5 dollars ut it was 12 dollars and the ingredients aren't even organic so why the high cost?!@#$
My boyfriend ordered the salmon shioyaki which is just plain salmon grilled with light salt. You can't really go wrong with grilled fish, but i didn't like how long it took the company to make it because that was the last thing that came.
For dessert we had Japanese cream puffs and fried bananas. Again, you can't go wrong with friend bananas. The Cream Puffs were on the "today's special" so i thought maybe they were the fluffy big ones like the ones in Japan but they were the tiny ones you could probably buy at sams. I know they were japanese because it tasted the same but i didnt' like the whole presentation with just whipped cream... wasn't very attractive and it wasn't anything special.
Other than that the service was great and the food tastes overall good. IT just isn't a place for me to want to drive over and eat or crave their food again. Sorry.
