went here last night on the whim of a friend as we were driving by. it's pretty bad. i had the kaki udon, which was entirely bland from the noodles to the veg to the chicken, almost saved by a dash of soy sauce but it still couldn't quite cover up the fact that it tasted like nothing. i also had a yuzu slush (w/o booze) that was really the highlight of the whole meal. rest of the table had pork belly lettuce wraps (boring, better versions available at any number of places), volcano roll (ditto, probably, i don't usually eat rolls), karaage (not well fried, not delicious, so much better elsewhere) and veg gomae that was basically just a bunch of cauliflower and turnip or something, a bunch of boring white vegetables, with a mediocre gomae (am i correct in thinking the gomae is the sauce? or is it the whole dish?). and it was all really expensive. like, $10 karaage that isn't even in the same ballpark as the offerings around town.
i highly recommend not going to this place. although it was bumpin around 10 last night with girls night/birthday party/first date lookin people so i'm sure that they're not doing terribly.
oh, and they started playing "ain't no fun" by snoop dogg and then switched tracks like 15 seconds in. big deduction in my books
