Reviews
My wife showed early sign of diabetes, and as she’s been doing for the last 5 years, she takes very small amount of celery (see picture) to keep the glucose level down prior to eating. Don’t know the science behind it but this is what she’s been doing without any single issues at more than 50 different restaurants. We sat down and younger waitress says, “we don’t allow outside food”. We tried to explain but she says this is a company policy…. Fine.
An older and nicer lady takes our order and we order two dishes. She later comes back and says they don’t allow outside food. We now get a chance to fully explain about the diabetic situation and she apologizes and leaves. Older lady goes back to the younger waitress and they talk in Japanese looking at my direction giving me the angry look. By now I’m frustrated by the absurdity of the situation so I take the celery bag and showed it to them asking what is the problem? We ordered one food for each of us and my wife has health issues. Older waitress again apologises and tells me they did not know it. All misunderstanding cleared so I’m thinking all is good. Not with the younger waitress. She, in a condescending voice tell me “this is company policy. Could you please eat it outside and comeback?” Wait, so you’re saying that I should tell my wife to take her tiny bag of celery and eat it in the parking lot and comeback to eat at the restaurant?
I kept my composure, cancelled our order, and walked out. Long time patron but never going back. Horrible horrible waitress (younger waitress, older waitress was very nice).
These kinds of inflexibility is what shuts restaurants down. There it is…my first ever negative restaurant review and I’m still confused by the absurdity.
Food was delicious and hit the spot. Food was quick to be prepared, and was fresh hot.
Service was nice and friendly. Location is small, so the place feels intimate, and cozy.
Would definitely come again, if I were in the area. Recommend.
Ordered:
~Udon Carbonara: udon was bouncy and chewy
topped with mushrooms and bacon strips in a creamy sauce. Good flavor. Must try.
~Spicy Miso Ramen: flavorful broth and chewy noodles.
~Takana Fried Rice w/ Clam Chowder Croquette: fried rice was good, loved the pickled mustard greens. The egg was a lil overcooked. The croquettes were crispy.
Small restaurant with limited seating. Plenty of parking.
