Profile

This open-fronted, minimalist-bordering-on-bare restaurant, diversifies the mostly traditional menu (and Momoya bento box) with fusion touches in dishes like sardine tempura with wasabi vinaigrette. It even throws vegetarians a bone—or rather, a “tofu chop.”

Our waiter forgot about us, and then tried to add extras onto the bill the were not ordered. The rock shrimp app was soggy, but the sushi was pretty good. Will probably not return since there are better sushi places with better service.

service poor and slow and the food not worth it...

i called and asked and they don't take reservations. well, fair enough. but the woman on the phone cut me off every time i tried to speak saying "sorry 'bout that". when we got there it wasn't too much of a wait to get seated. but our food took almost an hour. and we were seated at the very front with the door open all the way. while our waiter was apologetic, we asked to be seated elsewhere because it was getting rather chilly - and the seating hostess said she couldn't find a table elsewhere and did not close the door. SORRY 'BOUT THAT! when our food finally arrived - we were not impressed!
