We had recently been to Sen-ryo a few times. Once in Hysan Place, once in IFC Mall and once here near Fashion Walk. I would say we had tried many items on their menu already.This Fashion Walk restaurant was pretty empty even during lunch on a Sunday. We didn't have to wait at all and not all seats were taken during our visit.This time we also ordered many different items to try.Sashimi PlatterWe ordered this Deluxe Sashimi Platter to try.

This Fashion Walk restaurant was pretty empty even during lunch on a Sunday. We didn't have to wait at all and not all seats were taken during our visit.
This time we also ordered many different items to try.

We ordered this Deluxe Sashimi Platter to try. The giant prawns were super fresh and huge! They were so crispy and meaty. But the heads were lack of fresh prawn yellow flavour. The scallops were also fresh and meaty. Other sashimi were not so pleasing: the octopus was not crispy at all; the toro had tendons so didn't melt in my mouth; nothing special with tuna, salmon and 鰹魚 but they were all thick cut. Given the price, it was only ok.

We only ordered 2 types of sushi. This was Salmon sushi which had nothing special. The salmon sashimi were too thin. Not recommended.

The other sushi we ordered was Deluxe Sea Eel, which was freshly grilled with eel sauce served on the side. There were loads of small bones but edible even for kids. It was delicious but a bit too thin.
Rolls
We ordered two types of rolls to share.

The Dragon Rolls came with eel sauce on the side. They were so huge with loads of raw veggies but just some eel.

Seared Wagyu with Sakura Shrimp Roll seemed pretty appealing. However, there was nothing special with the seared Wagyu on top, which was claimed to be from Japan. The crispy texture of loads of sakura shrimp stuffings was interesting though. But given the so-so seared Wagyu on top, it was not really worth the price.

We just ordered Soft Shell Crab Hand Roll which had crispy seaweed and soft shell crab with avocado and salad dressing. It was ok.

It was so interesting to see these spring rolls at a Japanese restaurant. These Tempura Shrimp Ricepaper Spring Roll with Mango Sauce was pretty good. There were freshly deep fried and crispy tempura shrimps which were meaty too. There were loads of veggies and the ricepaper was very thin. The mango sauce was very appetising. Highly recommended indeed.

This Grilled Chicken Thigh in Charcoal Style Sauce was the best dish of the meal! They claimed that the chicken was from Japan which should be true as the chicken was so tender and juicy. They were cooked so well, obviously charcoal grilled which made them smell so good. I felt that my throat started to get sore after eating. The skin was so crispy that even I who never eat chicken skin finished all. There were 6 pieces altogether. Good dish indeed. Some yuzu pepper on the side to eat with the chicken. By the way, it could have been even better if they were less salty.
Cooked
We ordered 2 cooked items which were both pots. However, they were so disappointing.
Beef Pot with Tofu

The Beef Pot with Tofu was a lot worse than last time we first tried it at Hysan Place. The quality of the beef was just so so. The soup was very plain just with beef fat. The quality of the tofu was good though, even me who never liked tofu ate a few pieces. There was no big yummy mushrooms like last time. The transparent noodles were nice though.

This Hiroshima Oyster & Veggies Hot Pot with Miso was even worse. There were just three oysters with 2 big and 1 small. The quality was just so so. The miso soup was ok but not particularly good, seemingly free of MSG though. The veggies were just average.
Overall I would say that the quality of the food varied quite a lot, with some really good items like the appetiser and grilled dish but some were really disappointing like the hot pots. The sushi and sashimi seemed to be standard but the good thing was that there were quite a number of creative dishes and rolls not easily found elsewhere. That said, prices were of course not cheap. Service was pretty good though from all the servers I had come across. An ok place to go but not somewhere I would go back from time to time.
