I couldn’t hear the other person at our table for 2 at all. Wanted a glorious romantic dinner. Got good food but served to fast despite being told it would be “paced” if we ordered all at once and so noisy that I would not go to this location again.

We had some sushi that was GREAT! Everything was perfect. This last time not so much. The service was not even close to our last visit. We had to wait about 15 minutes for the waiter to acknowledge us. The food came out fast but it was nothing exceptional. We were told that chef Morimoto changed the whole menu, which is a shame because we liked the other offerings better. We paid our bill and even tip well, but we will not go back!

The Black Cod was silky and not over cooked. The miso was fine but needed 30 seconds under the broiler for a crisper crust. The duck fried was a bit greasy. $6 for a bowl of rice is ridiculous.

The sushi just wasn’t up to par. We’ve been to a lot of great sushi restaurants and this was not as good as we hoped it would be. Their maki was small and underwhelming. We also were upset that there was no option to change seaweed out of soy paper. It didn’t stop us from ordering, but strange to not have that option.
