| - This restaurant has been here for many, many years and used to be one of the better Japanese restaurants around. However, I recently dined here and the food was pretty much awful, and way overpriced for what it was.
Main problem: They changed their menu. They only have a few types of sushi and sashimi to order, and these are the usual standard types, eg, salmon, tuna and whitefish, which you can get at a food court. No sushi boats. Their maki rolls were large, flat and fell apart when picked up with chopsticks. The karage was basically deep fried chicken wings. The pork tonkatsu came with a ketchupy dipping sauce. The tossed salad was ok, but the miso chowder was horrible (watery). Wine choices were very limited.
My biggest issue: An order of skewers consists of 3 of them. We had 7 in our party, so we had 2 orders of each type of skewer (so 6 each order), but I asked if we could add 1 more skewer and we would pay the difference. Each order was $12 for 3 skewers, so I assumed they would add 1 skewer for $4 more to make it $16 which is what almost every restaurant I would go to for tapas would suggest if we had an odd sized party. However, they said no. Sagano does not do that.
I will not return.
