"Been going to Maguro-Ya for years. I moved away for some time, came back and was really excited to have my favorites again. To my dismay, I found that the standards have slipped drastically. My go-to was always the yosei nabe. It used to come full to the brim with a crab claw, couple of shell on shrimps, clams, mussels, and plenty of veggies and tofu. The last couple of time I went back to get it (had to give it a second chance because I thought it was a fluke), I was so disappointed to find 1 sad looking peeled shrimp, maybe 4-5 clams, two mussels, and not much veg for $33. The other dishes were not much better and I didn't think the sashimi was all that fresh. To be fair, some of the dishes that use cheaper ingredients are still pretty decent in size like the katsus and cheaper cut fish. I understand the whole inflation thing and the pain to keep operations going, but I'm sad to see quality and quantity go so far south for this former favorite hang out."
