Not Worth The Trip 9/30/2008

On 09/29/2008 we drove from Baltimore to Philadelphia for a 5:30pm reservation on a Monday night. Upon arrival we were the only people there except the staff. We were seated and started out with a Morimoto Soba Ale and a non-alcoholic pineapple cocktail. We decided on three $120.00 Omakase and $85.00/$65.00 drink paring. We recieved a complimentary dish(About the size of a quarter) with a tiny peice of lobster and sauce, which was very tasty. \r \r The first course was tuna tartar with caviar/scallions which was very tasty with a glass of wine. \r The second course was three oysters with jalapeno/lime which were very good with glass of Sake.\r The third course was red snapper with a citrus type sauce with a glass of wine.\r The fourth course was yellowtail with sea urchin/grasses/sauce with a glass of Sake.\r The fifth course was a half lobster(eight spice) containing about four bites of lobster with a glass of wine.\r The sixth course was Kobe beef(Unk what part) that was just plain bland with glass of red wine.\r The dessert was some type of cake with some drops of glaze, trully forgettable. \r \r Overall for the cost it was certainly not worth the trip from out of town or the $120.00 per person cost for the food. The total cost for our meal was $585.00 plus tip. The best part of the trip was leaving and driving to Geno's Steaks and getting three cheesesteaks to fill us up for $22.50. more
