We do eat our fair share of sush at least 2 times a month and it is not hard to tell good sushi from really poor quality stuff. We orded our standards; Maguro, Hamachi, Tako, and Unagi. I added a couple of rolls; Spicy Tuna and a Rainbow roll and we ordered Otokoyama Sake ($20 for a small 300 ML bottle). The Maguro was not spectacular, it was OK. The Tako arrived with a bright yellow sauce drizzled all over it. All I could taste was Mango. The Hamachi arrives covered in what I think is ponzu sauce however it is actually drenched in sesame seed oil. I was absolutely horrified when I tasted it!!! The Unagi arrived stone cold with an eel sauce that is nothing like we have ever tasted before? and this is not a good thing either. The Spicy Tuna roll is so spicy that my girlfriend cannot eat but a single bite. And we are not exactly hot & spicy wimps either and eat our fare share of hot & spicy foods. The Rainbow roll arrives and, like the Maguro tuna, is nothing spectacular but then again is not immersed in some bizarre sauce or oil either.
Cons: Sushi quality was questionable and everything was overpriced.
