I have been here two times. Everything is good. I wonder what those one-star reviewers eat daily in the US. It was exciting to see if I could find a better place at this price range from their previous review, but it ended up being nothing😅

If you want to be thoroughly disrespected during your meal, feel free to come here! This was the worst Japanese meal I have ever had.

First, the sushi rice was as hard as undercooked rice, making it very unpleasant to eat.

Second, Japanese cuisine is typically served in courses, but my friend was served three dishes at once. This is extremely disrespectful to the guests, as if they were telling us to hurry up and leave.

Third, when serving my dish, they carelessly tossed it onto the table, showing a complete lack of respect for the customer.

Fourth, before ordering, a slim server mentioned something about a 'corkage'. As a foreigner, I didn’t understand the term. When I asked what it was for, she said it was for providing refrigeration or glasses for our drinks. I specifically confirmed with her whether there would be an extra charge if we brought our own drinks, and she clearly answered 'No.' However, when the bill came, we were charged $50 per bottle as a corkage fee. Her response contained incorrect information and was misleading. This not only made me feel disrespected as a foreigner, but according to California law, all products and services must provide transparent pricing to allow customers to make informed decisions. This server was not only unprofessional but also deliberately misled foreign customers, which is absolutely unacceptable.

Fifth, their fruit was poorly cut, with pieces of varying sizes, which is far from the standard of a high-end Japanese restaurant. After giving feedback, the second plate of fruit they served was even more haphazardly arranged, showing extreme contempt for the customers.

Sixth, we were forced to pay a 20% gratuity after the meal. The staff told me that this was mentioned on their website. First of all, not every customer will see the website (for instance, I booked through a credit card dining service). Secondly, tipping is a way for customers to evaluate the service. This practice robs all customers of the opportunity to provide feedback on their service.

This was the worst Japanese dining experience I’ve ever had. If you want to be thoroughly disrespected during your meal, feel free to come here!

Pretty bad experience. I was taking my wife to this place for an anniversary this Thursday. Arrived around 7:30 and left around 8:50. Chef has no interaction with customer at all, and server cannot remember the name of sashimi in the plates server even chef told her in front of us. I guess that’s why this place charge mandatory service fee since no one will tip for this kind of service at a fine dinning place. Been to lots Japanese omakase restaurants, this one really disappointed me and not worth the price. There was only 3 group of guest and why you guys trying to kick people out quick? We ordered a whole bottle of sake and when all the food was served we still have half bottle left which makes us need to hurry and finish it. Not recommended and never gonna come to this place again. Train your employees better before charging high price.

I am an omakase fan and have been to over 20 omakase places and used to come here a couple times. This time is my worst experience among all the Japanese omakases I have been. We came on 2/29, and were 10min late, but the servers are so hurry to give us all the dishes. Even before we order the drinks, the first dish was served. There is one time we have 3 dishes together on table and we were forced to eat very fast. There is no introduction or any description for each dish. For all the onakases I have been to, even the very cheap ones, the server is supposed to introduce the dishes and tell us the order of eating. But she can’t even remember name of each sashimi, and no one tells us the name of each sushi. We finished the entire meal within 1.5hr which is way too fast for an omakase. The food was okay but not worth the price at all. We ordered a 100$ alcohol. The price in the end is 840$ for 2 people includes 20% mandatory service charge while there is no service at all. Very disappointed this time. Will never come again and won’t recommend anyone to come.

The chefs in the average Japanese restaurant are all older and experienced Japanese. The restaurant charges a fixed service charge of 20% and a 15% tip.
