I took my husband here for his birthday and this place is definitely my number 1 right now! We went on a Tuesday at 4pm and there were only 3 other parties seated when we got there. It was very clean and we were welcomed when we opened the door. We both ordered the premium 12 piece omakase (~$100 each) and we could tell much thought and preparation went into each fish that was served. Each piece was a master piece; professionally cut and sauced that we didn't have to...
"I heard that the owner previously worked at Nobu, which raised my expectations. The food was indeed good; however, I consistently felt that the service was lacking warmth. Even when I arrived early, before the restaurant got busy, the servers seemed robotic and unengaged. Despite spending around $800 on dinner each time, the overall experience left much to be desired in terms of hospitality."
Overall, food isn’t good. We had the makimono and Sashimi. Sashimi (salmon) was phenomenal but makimono was not - we had the salmon and yellowtail, they tasted old and rice was not fresh. The Amato Special was dry and just not good at all. Waitresses were rude and not helpful with the menu. The place is cute and main guy at the front seems chill, but overall I’d recommend going to Kombu a few blocks down Sunset - better atmosphere, food, service, and parking.
