This is a sushi bar/teppan yaki grill type restaurant. It is owned by a member of the band KORN so it has a rock theme to it. We came here for a friend's birthday a few months ago. Anyways here is our review.
FOOD:
When we first came here, we did not really have high expectations considering its a sushi place with a ROCK theme to it. The first thing we thought was this place is trendy, and that the food will be "alright"-not great but not bad either and really expensive! We were thus pleasantly surprised. We ordered the Blackened Ahi Steak ($20)and Japanese Boneless Short Ribs ($18) for our entrees. We also ordered a crunchy roll and salmon sashimi. The entrees were not only delicious but was also plated beautifully and the portions generous.
Here's a pick of the Ahi Steak! Yummm...
Ambience:
We went on a Saturday night so we can't see how it will be on a regular weekday, but weekends are busy and the place is packed. It's a nice place to go to with a group of people. They have a number of televisions around the restaurant to watch whatever sporting event is going on. The particular night we were there we watched a UFC fight. The place is busy and the crowd is lively, all-in-all a great place to go to celebrate or just to hang out.
Service:
The service was really great. Our server was friendly, prompt and competent. We had a somewhat large table and ordered numerous times for more sushi rolls or sake, on top of that like I mentioned earlier the place was packed so all things considered service was excellent in that we did not wait too long for our food and our server was always gracious.
Price: $$-$$$
It really depends on what you order and how much you order, but generally at least $25 per person or what you would normally expect to spend at a Mid to mid-high Japanese restaurant. We ordered two entrees, a crunch roll, an order of salmon sashimi, 2 beers, a soda and ice tea and our bill with tax and tip was around $90. It's not cheap but not too expensive either considering how much food we got.
Recommended?
Yes. It was a great experience and a great surprise because we were epecting mediocre food at a high price. I think we'll definitely go there again the next time we find ourselves out in Huntington Beach.
