As soon as I walked in I secretly cursed @modernpicasso who booked this place bc i felt it was going to be expensive and unsatisfying - two common traits of food venues that are chosen by him . It had the atmosphere of a legit Japanese restaurant that reminded me of the time we dropped close to $50 and left hungry but I digress.
Galbi Bento - this box was excellent and came with thickly sliced white tuna, salmon, and red tuna sashimi. The galbi was ok and came with a bed of vegetables. The tempura had nice assortment of shrimp, mushroom, sweet potato, broccoli, green pepper and onion. This box was satisfying.
The noodle shot appetizer was great and the salad was decent and not over saturated with dressing like most japanese places.
I finishes off my gfs sashimi donburi {like chirashi} and it was decently plentiful for 12 bucks.
Service - adequate, use a call button to summon them to your booth. Could use more frequent check ins to ensure we had enough tea etc but I forgive you.
Pleasant surprise - FREE ICE CREAM. I chose green tea but have no idea what it tastes like bc my gf ate it all as I typed this REVIEW. bitch... Other choice is mango.
Bill for me was only 23.67 plus tip for the generously portioned Bento. I am happy.
The tea served was free and tasted decent and not cheap.
Value 4/5
