| - I have SO much to review and, unfortunately, it's not very pleasant. Needless to say, we all know that this place had its grand opening only a couple days ago and are offering half off AYCE sushi. I thought I'd wait until the hype had died down, but was given a chance to come tonight. A couple friends and I came here tonight (Tuesday night) a little before 7pm, apparently right after a party of 25 came in.
Entrance : you enter through unmarked regular doors and come upon a wall straight in front of you. There, you wait for someone to seat you when they see you(Fortunately for us, my friend was seated and we didn't have to wait there, but we saw many people standing awkwardly for a while until someone approached them).
Decor: white walls over, chic wood looking benches/seats, sushi bar to the left, and a colored and lit DJ/Bar looking area to the back. Very clean
Service: Servers are super nice. Devi was amazing, and always checked up on us, as well as tried to get our orders going along. However the service time was Ridiculously long. We waited an hour after we ordered, to get our food from the bar. (we were able to snack on "appetizers" that were able to be made in the back, such as edamame). They spent all of their time waiting on the group of 25, that we could see that our table as well as 5 others around us weren't being served anything. The 3 sushi chefs (found out that one had called out) were filling orders only for that table, and no other tables were served. When they were finally serving good to other tables, lots of rolls were being run to the wrong tables. However, you could tell everyone on staff plus the man who we believe may have been the owner or MOD at the time was frantically trying to figure it out. Effort was great, execution was not. Definitely needed to fix their system.
Food: after waiting an hour (1 hr and 4 min actually) for our first roll from the actual bar, it was just subpar. You could tell at this point that they just needed to get orders out. It was made a bit sloppier, with a tad too much sauce on a couple of the rolls, but the quality of some of the fish was actually pretty good. (Fatty, large pieces of salmon nigiri was great). Unfortunately we didn't get to try all the rolls we ordered because they missed about 3 rolls. (1 order would be missing out of 4 that we would ask for per ticket).
**if you do go in the future, order the dessert type roll. (gorilla roll?) It has mango, banana, and strawberry and was pretty good. Even decided to order vanilla ice cream with it.
Honestly, I believe this has largely to do with them being open for such a short amount of time and most likely not being prepared for large crowds/large parties. We left 2.5 hours later at 9:30, not full and not very satisfied. We even felt bad for the table that came in not too long after us that had barely gotten any food. If it wasn't for how wonderful and sympathetic our server was as well as the the decor, this place would have 1 star.
My suggestion is to stay away from this place until at least a couple weeks after the grand opening and come during slower hours. :) the half off was not worth it.
