I have been wanting to try Miku ever since I saw and read about the resturant during Winterlicious and after having a bad experience at Shoshin from when my bf took me, I wanted to find a spot which I wanted to go to and impress him with my skills of finding a good sushi spot!!
After looking through the menu, my bf and I decided to go for the Sakura Aburi Prime Set menu plus sake pairing. The kitchen was also super sweet in giving us a complementary glass of sakura sparkling wine and octopus tartare as our amuse. The set menu itself was beautifully presented as well as did not fall short on taste. Majority of the time our servers were interactive and very well trained in presenting/introducing our dishes to us. However our main server simply did not make the cut in being professional.
However the food spoke volumes! The highlight of the menu for me was the Miso Baked Sablefish that was part of the kaiseki trio. The fish was beautifully cooked and tender, my bf and I both enjoyed every bite as it flaked beautifully when we cut our fork through it. The Aburi sushi was to die for. We both agree that we'd come back just for the sushi! Lastly, the dessert ended our meal beautifully, the green tea pannacotta and mint ice cream was a light medley of flavors that came together wonderfully.
Overall the food I'd rate: 4.5
Service I'd rate: 4 (majority of the servers were professional and eloquent, except for one)
Resturant ambiance/setting: 3 (the restaurant's setting is a bit confusing in my opinion as it's sectioned off to many areas with a chef's table, bar area, and dining area. My bf and I thought that we'd be seated at the chef's table as we made a reservation and asked to be seated there.)
