We had a meal that we didn't expect. What's a Japanese Steakhouse anyway? We were planning on fish being the top courses—not. They only offered two fish entrees and, of course the sushi—nothing exotic, but well prepared. We had the most marvelous meats. They were all sharable portions and delicious. The bill for three people exceeded $400.00 so be prepared to melt a credit card. It's worth it for a special occasion.
