| - Much has changed since I've last eaten here; one month shy of a year! Went today for lunch and the quality has deteriorated significantly. Lunch menu = not as vast & less affordable while popular items got moved to the dinner menu that's also increased in price.
Was so used to seeing the restaurant packed full, with lineups out the door at any time of day. Today it was empty. 5 or 6 tables being serviced at most. Maybe it's because I came by shortly after lunch hour, but from experience, there was a noticeable decline in patronage.
Food was also mediocre at best. Some of the salmon ordered weren't fresh. Cuts of fish were super thin (slivers) atop plenty of rice. Rolls were cut huge, filled with more rice than tasty ingredients. Items that should be served hot were actually served cold; soup, tea, some cooked dishes. The distribution of seasoning was also uneven; extremely salty, too spicy or bland. It wasn't good. Short beef ribs = all fat, no meat & over the top salty. Curry = all heat, no flavour. The dish was so spicy, I only managed to eat a quarter of it as my mouth was on fire!
The restaurant is going downhill. After 8+ years, I won't be returning.
