I wasn’t a huge fan of the location itself, but the food was delicious and plated beautifully. I will certainly be back!
The prices are good and you get plenty of food!
Worse experience.
I asked to speak to the manager and she told me she was the manager and when I told her to get the owner, you won’t believe what she said. She told me they don’t speak English.
I don’t recommend anyone to go to this place.
At first glance the menu looked awesome. They are under new ownership and it shows…they are trying to make the place look classy. However, the sushi is not described in the menu, other than the chef specials, so you have to ask the wait staff what is in each roll if you don’t already know. Our server said it was difficult to remember all of the rolls and she had to double check to make sure she wasn’t giving us bad information about about the sushi.
They had a special that was $14.95 for Your choice of appetizer, soup, sushi roll, and chef’s special roll. I decided to give that a try. I chose miso soup, steamed shiumai (a shrimp dumpling), the Crispy Lotus Roll, and asked if they had a sushi roll that had salmon, cream cheese, and cucumber, but they didn’t have one. I was told the Philadelphia Roll had cucumber, cream cheese, and crab meat. I opted for that.
First the miso soup came out. It was very weak and watery, and not hot – only tepid (Certainly not hot enough to prevent microbial growth), so I sent it back and asked for hot and sour soup. She brought it out and it was also pale and watery, and neither hot, nor HOT nor sour. It WAS soup, so one out of three? I asked for some vinegar to make the soup sour, but I couldn’t fix it. I Pushed it aside and moved on to the shiumai.
The shiumai wrapper was pale white and waterlogged. It tasted like old frozen food that had been microwaved. Yuck! Bad taste, bad smell, bad texture. I pushed that aside, too.
The sushi rolls were presented nicely, each displayed upon a leaf, both on the same plate. Mind you, the chef’s special roll is hot and the other roll is cold… supposedly. In this case, the rice that was supposed to be cold on the outside of the Philadelphia roll was cool but definitely not cold, as were the contents. Additionally, imitation crab was used – not real crab meat. They should be more specific because if I had had a fish allergy I could be writing this from the hospital. The other roll was hot but had a very fishy flavor, not like other sushi that I’ve had for the past 40 years. I ate both the rolls with trepidation… Honestly I was a little worried about the quality, and, unfortunately, my fears were founded. About an hour and a half after we ate, I felt sick to my stomach and I had to be sure I was close to a restroom.
I am very underwhelmed by the quality of the food here. The wait person that we had was chipper and cheerful, and appears to truly believe in the quality of the product. She checked on us appropriately and made sure we had everything we needed. She was the best part of this place other than the chocolate fortune cookie at the end.
