"On Wednesday 12/06 I went to Banzai Sushi, I have never received such bad service in my life… Every time I remember my experience, I get angry, the waitress is rude and has a horrible attitude! It's a shame because the food there is wonderful, but the service is so SO BAD that I lost my appetite. When I got there, there was some water spilled on the table, she took my stepfather's DIRTY NAPKIN to clean it and just left it there. When I asked for things she responded with an ignorant, rude tone. My partner doesn't eat any type of animal protein other than shrimp. So we asked if we could replace the salmon with shrimp in a poke, she checked in the kitchen and said everything was fine. When she came back, I placed my order and she was doing something at the other table, but said to continue because she was listening….my partner also talking about swapping salmon for shrimp at the end and the waitress replies “so it's not like that at all what you want, is something different” and simply left leaving us talking to the wall. When our order arrived, my order came out wrong. I called her and she simply replied “BUT ALSO, WITH HER MAKING ALL THIS MESS WITH SALMON AND SHRIMP…”, sorry, but for me that was the end of the bite. It's okay to get the order wrong, I know it happens, but blaming the customer? Every time she passed by our table I saw her making faces and looking at the kitchen. I thought it was a huge lack of respect, we are paying customers. On top of that, it also includes a 15% tip. Normally, if I receive good service, I will give 20%, after all, I work in customer service and value professionals in my field. And if the service was just bad, I wouldn't bother coming here to report it... But it was horrible"

"This renowned restaurant opened its doors in 1909, following Japan’s unexpected victory over the Russian Empire, which led to a period of significant growth and transformation, positioning Japan as the wealthiest and most advanced nation in Asia. It was a time ripe with national pride as the burgeoning Japanese middle class began dining out frequently, leading to a surge of eateries, izakaya, food carts, and noodle shops cropping up on every street corner and in every alleyway. Thus, it’s no surprise that this Los Angeles outpost of the esteemed 1909 Tokyo establishment is regarded as one of the best and most authentic Unagi houses outside of Japan and Korea. That being said, one aspect that has come with its authenticity, aside from the high-quality food and thoughtful presentation, is the price. Gone are the days of enjoying a late-night Korean meal featuring Unagi Don for just sixteen dollars. At Toku Unagi and Sushi, the full Unagi set will cost between fifty and ninety-eight dollars per person. However, this set offers much more than what you’d find at my old Korean spot. It includes a 350-gram whole Unagi, imported from Japan, skillfully seasoned and grilled over high-quality Japanese charcoal, served atop premium rice. Additionally, it comes with a selection of Japanese pickles and a bowl of hot soup. For those looking to indulge further, you can choose the Extra Special Imported Unagi—think of it as the A5 Wagyu of freshwater eel—at a slightly higher price. There’s also the option to turn your special Unagi Don into Ohitsu, where you receive a side of delicate tea broth to pour over your rice. To make your dining experience even more memorable, the restaurant features a full sushi bar displaying a variety of exquisite fish in its cooling cabinet. For an authentically exquisite Japanese dining experience, be sure to check this place out. Just remember to approach it like Las Vegas—bring only as much money as you're comfortable spending; after all, your kids will need to go to college someday!"
