"I don't know if I can recommend this restaurant yet. They got our order wrong. We ordered salmon roe, but got salmon instead. Of course the roe cost more. I bet they were out of the salmon roe and just substituted, but of course I was not told and the roe I paid for cost more. The sea urchin roe was almost tasteless. Not sure how that happened. Previously frozen maybe? I honestly dont know. Apparently I am supposed to eat my miso soup with chop sticks some how because no spoon was included, but they did give us 2 sets of chop sticks. They place was relatively slow this evening in my opinion, so I don't know what happened. The gyoza were the smallest dumplings I have ever seen. They were a bit bland too, but at least they were not overpowered by onion like some other places. The miso soup was a bit bland too. It had mushrooms in it, which is a bit unusual, but that didn't help the general wateriness it had in general. However, everything else I did get was fresh and flavorful, so I had to give 2 stars overall. I am not writing the place off all together and would like to try them again, but I will be thoroughly checking my order before I leave next time. I don't think I will be ordering the sea urchin roe or gyoza again though. Finally, they don't have delivery. Google says that they do, but when I called, they said they do not. Not sure if this is a Google error or what, so I give that a pass."
