After some persuasion, I chose this place to have dinner after a long hard day at work. The prices were reasonable and the food was "fairly" tasty, unfortunately, the service was... not so good.
Before starting my review, I would like to comment that the prices were very reasonable especially since it is located in Yorkville.
As a party of 2, my friend and I decided to get 2 entrees and share it. We went for a bento box and a Sashimi dish. (unfortunately the picture I took for the bento box was not saved to my cell phone, so let's use our imagination).
The food wasn't really special but the sashimi plate was very well made. The fish was fresh, and it was enough to feed us 2.
The service was quite bad, as a Japanese restaurant, I always felt that the service should be good, as the culture is polite and is known for selling good service. As a Japanese restaurant located in Yorkville, I would expect the service to be better than the one I was offered. The waiter was very impolite and constantly asked us to "move" as he had to get by (I do not mind if they asked in a polite way, but they were very rude). The restaurant was not crowded yet, we were escorted to small tables that hardly gave us enough space to sit, every time a waiter were to pass, we almost had to stand up to let them get by. This is not the biggest problem. The biggest problem is their attitude, as if it was OUR fault (the customer's fault) for getting in their way.
They were also very slow in getting us food ( I am not sure if this is the waiter's fault or the kitchen's), by the time the food came, I was starving...
I am not sure if I will come back to this place, perhaps for the food, but the service was a big blow off.
