Reviews
TLDR; poor quality, expensive, not worth your time even if you’re local anyway.
I went into the bathroom shortly after arriving and someone had defecated on the toilet seat – it was cleaned off the seat but clearly the remainder was left around the bowl portions and underside of the seat, so staff was definitely aware of it but just not that interested in cleaning it off.
Second, food swung between mediocre or completely appalling. Appearance of the food was pretty good and looked great however -Items were incredibly bland and lacked flavor(the kimchi had NO flavor whatsoever), sushi quality was poor (easily the worst eel I’ve ever had, crab was subpar and contained pieces of shell in the crab salad dish, size of rice on the nigiri was shameful, sushi roll proportions were incredibly small) and temperature of “hot” items were lukewarm at best and completely unmemorable in taste(steamed bok choi was cold, dumplings were unimpressive, egg roll was mush inside). Variety was impressive but for a 38.99 entry price you’d expect to see that (interesting bar items included scallops, frog legs, snails, pork belly, oxtail stew). Desert items were mediocre, the flan offered was completely rubber baring impossible to actually cut with silverware and had flavor reminiscent of unflavored gelatin.
In the “all you can drink boba” section the drinks were fine – but good luck getting a straw. Our waitress snubbed us when when originally attempting to flag her down and later returned to us with a single straw between the two of us, and my partner was actually given one by a separate waitress who we had managed to get the attention of – which brings us to the next issue; The waitresses. They swung generally between uninterested and actively rude, glaring at other patrons and cartoonishly snarling if not on their phone texting. Multiple times I’d witnessed one spilling leftovers and wiping away with a dry cloth, others dropping trash just for another to pick it up. There was one waitress that actually seemed interested and concerned for people and did ask us if everything was okay while we were leaving (possibly noticing we spent ~20 minutes total and got maybe two plates each before we agreed to leave) but at that point – already paid and doubt it truly mattered.
There was notices posted about an automatic 12% gratuity to be added for every bill and I can 100% believe it’s a direct result of the common opinion that there is no reason to tip here for not only a lack of service but lack of quality.
Avoid completely.
Super quick service, got seated and I immediately started to look around.
The food was super fresh, you can see the staff constantly monitoring, filling and replacing the food. The variety here is really good I even saw like 3 different ways to eat crabs.
The ramen was good, I got an option that was spicy even though it’s not mentioned and I tried to ask the people but it’s okay, the egg was cold but the broth warms it up a bit. Kind of imagine a salad with a cold egg that’s what it was like lol.
The actual food here was tasty, the meat was cooked throughly and had a lot of flavor. I also did try their dessert, cheesecake was really good. And lastly their unlimited teas. I didn’t think I was going to like the mango tea but it was so so good ! I do recommend you to at least try it. There was so many sushi options too.
There’s plenty of parking out front.
Overall I spent $40 per person without including tip.
Variety was good between hotpot and ramen. Sushi was fine, dinner exclusive stuff was good, lobster salad was great, seafood was pretty delicious. Overall fine
