Horrible Service and not accomodating

by V8826

I work around this area and have ordered from this place once too many times. At first, the food was great the first 2X but then they started charging me different prices for the same exact order everytime. When I spoke up about it, they pretended they had no idea what I was talking about yet I ordered from them once a week for lunch. I usually ordered the beef teriyaki The following week, another woman answered and completely refused to honor me the order and said they couldn't alter the menu which they have been 5X even with me agreeing to pay a little more for the beef. It's been about 2 months now and I must be glutten for punishment because I decided to give it another try but will stick to the chicken teriyaki, permissible on the menu. It comes with choice of sashimi. The order arrives with no wasabi, last time, no chopsticks. The place has horrible customer service by far THE WORSE I have ever experienced in my life. I never write on these review boards but this restaurant does not deserve a good rating AT ALL!!!! IDO SUX A$$!!!!! Bunch of keh sek kees!!!

STAY AWAY!!! RIP-OFF REPORT!!!

by Tommy10014

STAY AWAY...STAY AWAY....STAY AWAY!!!!!!!

I had a TERRIBLE experience here. I have lived in the West Village my whole life. 45 years. I have experienced every place in my neighborhood. These guys are DISHONEST. They have a 50% off sign but didn't honor the advertising. Hey...it is only money...MY MONEY....but getting fleeced in my OWN neighborhood...!?!?!?!?

Ok....now about the food and service. The service was terrible. The waiter was either inexperienced or just lazy. I have had alot better sushi and sashimi at numerous other HONEST places. About the only thing I enjoyed was the hot Sake. My total bill was $105 for 2 people and we left hungry. When I complained about them not honoring the 50% discount, the waiter quickly pulled out a card for the next visit. I told him..."You must do this alot, because I haven't even finished complaining and you are pulling out a coupon for the next visit!". The place is a total rip-off, stay away.

• Pros: IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD
• Cons: TOTAL RIP-OFF DISHONEST PEOPLE

I finally found my favorite sushi place!!

by livne

I have always been on the lookout for a sushi restaurant that is not only affordable but consistently serves high quality seafood. This is it! The staff is lovely and the owners Tora and Jane are always around to make sure your experience is top notch. The cozy, fun atmosphere is perfect for everything from a first date to a group meal. But most important is the food. DELICIOUS. They excel in everything from your basic sashimi to adventurous rolls, and when they have them, their hamma hamma oysters are phenomenal- fresh and light with a nice smooth aftertaste.

They also have opera nights on the first wed. of every month, which is very low key and fun- not the stuffy atmosphere I expected from an opera night.

I have never reviewed a restaurant on citysearch before, but I felt the need to let people know about my great find! My husband and I are now regulars...

• Pros: location, personal service, FOOD!!!
• Cons: I can't afford to make Tora my personal chef
