Ai Sushi & Grill

The food is amazing. Unfortunately the nepotism is not. I’ve been here at minimum 5 times. The first time and the most recent, I was served by Sangmin. Both times he disappeared and I got no refill, no dessert and very little service overall. It seems like the entire staff works together well but I saw him on his phone several times and when he wasn’t he was hiding in the soda fountain area (where I assume he was again on his phone). I was a server for years and deeply respect them when I’m out at a restaurant. This time however I just couldn’t tip him. Maybe it was the dry mouth from eating 5 rolls with no refill. Maybe it was the fact that we didn’t see him again from the time he dropped off our drinks til we cleaned the table and were standing, ready to leave.

Andrew cooked for and catered to us like family. I brought in my 10 autistic kid (risky lol) and we had a wonderful time. I’ve finally found the salad dressing from YEARS ago that I’ve missed and I doubt there’s a single menu item that isn’t tasty. All of the staff was warm and welcoming. Definitely recommend! Kid-friendliness: I brought in my 10yo who’s autistic and the hibachi chef showed him a great time. “More volcano” is all I heard on the way home : )
