. . . "1"^^ . "1"^^ . "3"^^ . "2"^^ . "I decided to try out this restaurant for my friend's last day in town. I personally love foods at Sakanaya and also I have heard many great things about this restaurant so I thought it would be worth to check out the restaurant.\n\nFirst of all, I would say this restaurant has a nice atmosphere. The host was nice and also the waitress. However, that is probably the only good thing I found at this restaurant.\n\nI don't know if it is about the restaurant only has one chef but it took about almost 30 mins for the food to come and there were only 3 other people sitting in when we were there. My friends and I thought it was quite a long time to wait for the foods to come.\n\nThe foods really fell short for my expectation. I got the Galbi Rib-Eye Steak and my friend for the Sea Scallops for dinner. We both agree that the foods were too \"heavy\". The steak came with a small portion of kimchi fried rice that was cooked with butter which does not really compliment the taste of kimchi. I, too, prefer to substitute butter for oil in some dish but I found that using butter for kimchi fried rice just makes dish overall imbalanced. And there is also some fried kimchi on top of the steak which was very oily. I couldn't even eat pass two scoops of the fried rice and 1/3 of the steak because it felt so greasy after few bites. My friend's dish tastes a bit bland for our preference but too creamy. They added one piece of fried fat pork next to each scallop and make the dish tastes so \"heavy\" overall. Both of us couldn't finish our dinner because we feel so bloated from the greasiness.\n\nFor the food's price we have to pay, I feel like the chef could have made the seasoning stronger and cut out on the fattening ingredients that were used in the dishes. But again, according to many people, I am a picky eater. I don't think I will come back to this restaurant again because I feel like gaining 10 lbs from eating the foods....."^^ .
