| - This restaurant is definitely worth it for the experience. The ambience is intimate with dim lighting. The first thing the server asked us was if it was our first time as this is probably on a lot of people bucket list of restaurants to try. Lastly, if you are hoping to eat before drinking to soak up the alcohol later in the night, this is not the place to waste your money on, unless that's your style. They recommend you to try 3 of the cold appetizers and 3-4 of the hot appetizers before you order sushi, because you do not want to fill-up on rice in the beginning.
The server explained the menu to us and gave us suggestions on recommendations for first-timers. The miso cod was one that we tried, and I would highly recommend all first-timers to try as well. We started off with the yellowtail carpaccio with ponzu sauce, and it was delicious, coming from someone who doesn't eat raw fish. For something fried, we got the wagyu beef and lobster tacos, which were enveloped in fried wontons, not taco shells lol. They were a one-bite type of app. I tried to share it with my boyfriend, but it always ended up on the table, oops. Can't take me anywhere fancy~
Next we got the trio of oyster which had a different sauce to each of them. Forgot what it was called, but it was pretty good, we followed that with shrimp tempura which kind of looked like honey walnut prawns, but didn't taste like it. It was bombbb diggity.
To finish off, we ordered 2 rolls, a spider roll and another roll I forgot, both were really good. They use daikon to wrap the rolls over the seaweed, which is different, but I enjoyed it.
Bill came out to around $100 per person.
