Decided to check this place out for dinner since it was recommended by a family member...first impression of the restaurant and the decor is good as the seats were nicely spaced between tables. Decided to order the special set for 2 person $620 which includes Crab Salad, Sashimi Platter, a set of sushi, dried fish, fried tempera, and fish soup udon. On top of the set dinner we also ordered salmon hand roll x 2, california hand roll, and a soft shell hand roll. 1) The crab salad was decent as imi
Decided to order the special set for 2 person $620 which includes Crab Salad, Sashimi Platter, a set of sushi, dried fish, fried tempera, and fish soup udon. On top of the set dinner we also ordered salmon hand roll x 2, california hand roll, and a soft shell hand roll.
1) The crab salad was decent as imitation crab was provided along with shredded lettice but there was a generous amount of caviar which blended in quite nicely. 3/5
2) The sashimi platter came with salmon, abalone, tuna, sea snails, and a kind of fish. Not too impressed about the sashimi platter as the tuna was a little mushy/powdery, the salmon didn't have a sea fatty flavor & texture, the abalone was nothing special, and the rest were kind of bland. 2.5/5
3) Tuna Onion Maki came with the 2 person set which tasted not bad as the onion were able to enrich the flavor of the diced tuna placed ontop of the maki. 3.5/5
4) Dried fish was suprisely good and would recommend it to anyone. My first impression was "what i got myself into, this does not look very good..." but once it entered my mouth it felt like i had to compliment it because it tasted beyond my expectations. The dried fish were sliced into shreds and the texture tasted like eating a soft jerky. The layer is coated with something sweet and the fish flavor tasted mild which mixed very well with the layer of coated flavoring. 4/5
5) Just like any tempera nothing too much to mention other than the material used were defintely higher grade groceries. 3.5/5
6) The fish soup udon was great as the soup base was definately made with fresh fishes with not much MSG or artificial flavoring which was very sweet and fresh in terms of the taste. The udon were no ordinary udons which are the flat ones possibily made in house. A dish i would recommend trying which i'll rate it 3.5/5
7) Salmon handroll were decent but in a generous amount. 3.5/5
8) Californai handroll were average and i would recommend sticking with the maki instead of the hand rolls. 3/5
9) Soft shell crab hand roll were decent and luckily the crab were not overly seasoned. 3/5
Overall, its a restaurant i would return sometime in the future but not frequently since there are a lot more choices for the same price paid. The price and the quality of food are very reasonable. Overall, i would rate it 3.5/5
