"Ematei is one of the few a la cart Japanese restaurants hidden in the downtown core. Consider this place is just around 10-15 minutes walk away from the financial district, coming here for a lunch or dinner is not a bad option.\n\nThe decoration of this restaurant is nice, however, the inside is very dim and I personally do not like dim places, so I wasn't a big fan of the environment.\n\nFood wise, I had been here 2 times, once for lunch and once for dinner, and both times, I thought the food was decent. Sashimi was fresh and the sushi was well displayed in the dinner sushi combo. For the price I paid, the combo already came with Eel, Salmon Roe and Uni, which are considered as higher end sushi and I am happy to share they were fresh and tasted wonderful! \n\nService wise, lunch time they are super busy so don't expect much service, but dinner time I though the waitress was very attentive and kept checking with me if I was having a good time.\n\n3 solid stars for this restaurant! Only negatives I had was the dim environment and the slightly higher than average price."^^ . "0"^^ . "1"^^ . . "2015-03-08T00:00:00"^^ . . . "0"^^ . "3"^^ .
