We ate here last week, heard if was good from a friend. It was about half full when we sat down at the sushi bar, we figured it would be a mellow dinner, as it was Tuesday at 7PM. The sushi chef seemed a bit overwhelmed already, and we ended up ordering from the waitress, even though we wanted sushi and were at the sushi bar, the chef did not seem interested at all in taking orders or answering questions (pretty curt to my one question, so I figured I'd leave him alone). A couple more people came in, then he started yelling at people as they walked in the front door that they couldn't eat, even though there were empty tables. It was soo rude! Ended up they had a reservation, and the waitress sat them. The chef was in a complete tizzy, and we waited over half an hour for our sushi. The chef yelled at the waitresses a couple more times not to seat anyone without a reservation. That is one thing in a back kitchen, but this was over our heads and into the seating area! Everyone was a bit taken back at his public behavior. He got visibly exasperated and angry when he couldn't find things, even threw an empty sauce container accross the prep area! The food was fantastic, and we would have loved to order more, but didn't want to wait all night, and witness rude chef. Too bad, I hope he isn't permanent!
Pros: Yummy sushi
Cons: Rude shushi chef
