| - Total waste of time and money! My wife and I were celebrating my new promotion, but unfortunately our favorite sushi joint, Sakana Sushi on Elliot, was closed for remodeling. A woman who had also shown up said that Sushi Eye on Warner was good and so we thought we would give it a try. First impression was the place was nice: very cool, hip decor, nice house/chill music, very trendy. The menu looked great, nice photos of very lavish sushi, and priced relatively high, so we assumed we were in for some good sushi (with a 4-star rating and the prices). Then, it was all down hill... I ordered a Combo and my wife ordered some Gyoza and a roll, eel sauce on the side (please!). Gyoza came out, no plates. We waited several minutes for our plates then just decided to dig in. She came back for refills, no plates. Not that big of a deal, but... My wife's roll comes out (Golden Cali Roll) and it is extremely "fishy" tasting. I say "fishy" because, yes, I know it's fish, but it's imitation crab and that's about it, shouldn't taste like a medley of fish. My salad (below average) and soup (PIPING HOT) comes out. I decided to let the soup cool a bit, as I went back to it, my combo came out. Still, I'm not annoyed yet, but, this was a little annoying. (Still no eel sauce). I got into the Cali Roll, it was good, teriyaki chicken, good, rice was a bit dry and tasteless, then teriyaki beef... COLD! My soup was still too hot to sip, my beef was cold to the touch. I am not one to send things back, but I said to our waitress "I am very sorry, but this beef is cold." She was apologetic and took the whole plate back, which I was OK with considering I still had some hot soup, brought my plate back minus the beef and said there was a fresh serving coming. (No eel sauce...) Then, my wife decided to venture into my combo plate, took a Cali Roll and to her surprise, there was wasabi in the rice (she is not a fan). As we looked over at the sushi bar to see if we could figure out the deal, we saw our waitress in the sushi prep area (oddly) waving around money. WTF?! Dirty money around raw fish, nice! Then, we noticed, there was no manager in/around the restaurant. This place was smoke and mirrors. It looked trendy and hip, but the food was terrible, definitely not even close to what we paid. My beef came out, hot, which was nice, but it was rubbery. At this point, I was pretty much done, as was my wife. Well, at least I had a new promotion to be happy about, but dinner left us with a bitter end to the day. I would suggest you not eat here, unless you go for 1/2 price happy hour, then it MIGHT be worth it. Venture up Elliot to Sakana and have a quality meal for a better price.
