Really liked the sushi, expect for the red tuna that was a bit gummy. All in all enjoyed this restaurant. … More
My brother and I visited on a Saturday night. Made reservations a week in advance via Open Table with specific instructions to sit inside. On arrival the host tried to seat us outside and we had to push back and wait for a table to open up inside. They did try to accommodate us and did so fairly quickly. We decided to try the Sushi Sashimi Tasting chef's special, which is on-menu. The sushi and sashimi are chef's choice, with your choice of one signature roll. We chose the Bakudan and since we were feeling pretty hungry we added a Greenwich roll, too. Presentation of the tasting was dramatic, but the care of execution of both the sashimi and the roll were lacking. I expect sushi to be a carefully crafted artform, but unfortunately, everything looked hastily prepared. The flavor and freshness of the food were very good, though for what we paid for the tasting ($75) I was expecting to be wowed, but was merely satisfied. The Greenwich Roll (spicy yellowtail, jalapeno, asparagus, eel sauce
Great meal - ordered the sushi/sashimi combo. The fish was well prepared and very tasty. I was disappointed my waiter didn’t recommend me a pairing with sake as a drink with such delicious fish. Sake would have been so amazing - but I tried his suggestion - Sauvignon Blanc and nah - killed the vibe. I would definitely speak up next time and question the pairing. Makes me wonder 1) the waiter doesn’t like sake 2) not properly trained 3) the restaurant doesn’t have sake pairings for it?! I believe the waiter needs better training. Other than that, the desert, matcha crepe, (is not very sweet - I dont like very sweet deserts) went amazing with green tea. It was interesting because it had red bean paste on top and blueberry/strawberry on the sides. This desert comes from chicalicious in st mark (Japanese pastry chef) and its great to have some of her uptown as well!! It was great! Great atmosphere! Will definitely come again.
