. . "Ematei is a fun place in a quiet corner of the street that has apparently existed for over a decade. We came here with another couple, at their suggestion. I didn't know this place even existed and probably never would have had they not told me about it. There are plenty of tables, including a party room behind blinds where you sit on the floor and a big square party table in corner, too.\n\nWe ordered lots of food and drinks:\n\nBBQ duck - crunchy skin, juicy meat, awesome\nHotate scallops - delicious\nBlack Cod with miso - classic and very tasty\nSpicy salmon & tuna rolls - I'm not a fan of any spicy mayo rolls but everyone else seemed to think they were good\nGyoza - crispy outside, fresh and steaming on the inside\nTempura veggies - very well fried - not greasy\nKing mushrooms - excellent\nShitake mushrooms - even better than the King\nSpinach with bonito - gotta put some greens in ya\nBBQ spare ribs - tender and moist\n\nThis is great Japanese restaurant with very good value for the money. We're definitely coming back!"^^ . "4"^^ . "2011-02-01T00:00:00"^^ . "4"^^ . "3"^^ . "0"^^ . .
