FYI, I opened up an account here just so I can share my experience in this restaurant.
I went there for lunch with 2 friends today, who weren't that hungry.
Summary:
(+) The sushi were decent - nothing special, it was decent.
(-) They run the place like a Chinese 茶餐廳. Do not expect good service (in fact, their service is pretty much non existent) . To be fair though, they are good at throwing food to your table. (Yes, throw is the right choice of word here. Not "place")
(-) They are so "efficient" that they served my dessert alongside with my mains, as well as the bill.
(-) Do not ask questions to them, they get impatient and their voice gets louder. It's pretty intimidating.
(-) I ordered extra salmon sashimi to my meal. The staff said my meal already comes with sashimi, which I already knew. I had to repeat that to her like 5 times, before she allowed me to order extra sashimi
(-) They have a minimum spending here. So, my friends weren't too hungry (they shared a meal together) whereas I ordered like a 2 persons meal. (The total spending was way beyond the minimum). Yet the staff wasn't happy and forced one of my mates to order a drink.
(-) I'm very impressed by how loud they can talk. The three staff (all girls) would get a fantastic sales job in local markets.
(-) Having only arrived for 20 minutes, they started turning off the AC directly above my table (and not anywhere else)
(-) There's additional fee if you pay with credit card for spending of under $300. Fine it makes sense. Our bill came close to 400. But they said something about their Visa card machine is broken, so if I still want to use the Visa card, I would have to pay extra on top (I was so confused so I paid by cash)
Verdict:
Under normal circumstances, I would have gone crazy. But since I had a big night last night, I have no energy to complain. To be fair, I was very angry at first, but this place is so bad that it becomes comical. The sushi were fine, nothing special. Like I said, it was decent. For the price you are paying, there are a lot more better options around there.
