after a disappointing attempt years ago at the tempe location, i was skeptical to eat here again. however, there are only chains in the area, and this was our only option for a fish heavy menu.
we waited about 15 minutes and were seated. the food was very good. we had a sashimi plate and mediterranean sea bass. however, we had to hunt down silverware as it is difficult for us to eat sea bass with chop sticks. the fish was well cooked and came with a tasty salsa on the side. the asparagus was grilled and salted tastily. we also ordered the pickled vegetables but i wasn't impressed with that dish...the veggies were too rubbery.
service was prompt and friendly and our water glasses were filled regularly. i will say i have to agree with my wife on the TV opinion....restaurants should be for eating, not for having TV's. there's nothing that says you don't enjoy your wifes company than taking her out to a place with TV's everywhere (unless it's a sports bar).... "i'm not interested in your company, so i'll watch the Big Game while we eat".
prices are a little high for their dishes, but oh well....
