Ootoya's Causeway Bay branch used to be across from Times Square and now it moved to the MidTown. So, decided to try it out for lunch.The space is larger and more spacious than their previous location. It was more like a casual restaurant. No Japanese decor could be seen. Menu is in English and Chinese with photos of all their food. The choices are extensive. You like soba? They got it. You like tempura? It's here! Yakitori? You bet! It seemed to serve every kind of popular Japanese cuisine you

It seemed to serve every kind of popular Japanese cuisine you could think of. It was here.
I chose a grilled mince chicken meat ball rice set ($100).. I was informed it would take 15 - 20 minutes and when my food came, they apologized for the wait. Polite.
Set looked like this.
The bento box contained three grilled mince chicken meat balls, potato salad, regular salad greens with dressing and slice of tomato on top of rice. I don't know why they served the salad on top of the rice? The potato salad was horrible. I really don't like potato but I love Japanese potato salad. But this was really bad. It just tasted like cold bland starchy mashed potato. The salad greens were ok and the tomato was nice. The chicken meat balls were alright. Nothing really bad or good about them.
Set came with an onsen egg. It nice. Especially when mixed with the rice.
Appetizer was green beans with miso. It was ok. Beans were crisp.
The other appetizer were chilled cucumbers and daikon. This was ok. Just crunchy and refreshing.
Miso soup had a lot of spring onions added.
Prices are not expensive. Food was ok but not exceptional. However, since prices were not expensive and you do get a lot of choices, it's ok. I would probably return again if I didn't know what to eat and needed something that didn't break the bank but yet can sit in a comfortable setting.Should note that since the restaurant was new, they offered tea or coffee for free. This may be a time limited offer. It was not mentioned anywhere until my meal was finished and the waitress informed me of this.
