Yelp expectations. Sometimes that works against a place. Gotta say, I wasn't that impressed.
The service was fabulous. I felt like I was the only one in the place. Sure, the crowd was light, but it was exceptional.
So here's the run down:
Miso soup - the best ever, props to Megan M for the tip. Really exceptional.
Sea Bass - first time, pretty good, but a little lacking in flavor.
Unagi - very good, a little too thin and therefore a little crispier than I'm accustomed.
Salmon Roe - the best I've ever had. It was buttery tasting.
Tuna - a bit stringy, not very tasty
Yellowtail - basically my favorite sushi, a let down here
Tobiko w/quail egg - about the worst on the plate, too much lumpy rice.
A little on the pricey side, but not over the top.
They do have Asahi, always a plus. The crowd at the bar were chatting away as though they were good friends when it later appeared they hadn't known each other until this evening. Tribute to the atmosphere and the service.
