text: The wife and I have eaten at lots of sushi restaurants including Morimoto in NYC and we had high expectations for this place The service was good to great but you would expect that from a restaurant of this price but what is the deal with all the caucasian waiters who cannot even pronounce omakase For the record it is ohmakasay not omacasennThe atmosphere was pretty lacking It was dark loud and looked almost like someone sort of gave up on the decoration It was just soso nice and did not really give off any particular vibe And I have never been to any kind of restaurant other than a holeinthewall where they give you the bill on a freaking round white plate Then after you give them a credit card they bring back the receipt and a pen Yes just the receipt and a pen No plate no folio nothing They just put the receipt on the tabel with the pen Does that scream star restaurant to younnWhen trying out new sushi restaurants we always like to order some of the basics to get a foundation to compare against other places We ordered the sushi and sashimi plates Both had decent to very good fish but not great except for two big disappointments the tuna was really mediocre and hello take it easy on the wasabi chef Sushi chefs that use too much wasabi are either trying to cover up notsofresh fish or they are just not really good at making sushi The fish seemed pretty fresh so I do not think they were trying to cover anything up which leavesnnMaybe we should have had lower expectations when we came in or maybe Nobu is only good with the fancier dishes But for the prices they charge for regular sushi and sashimi it is just not worth itnnThe service gets a The decorvibe gets a and nif the prices were maybe lower I could easily have given them or maybe even stars But for what you get I would give them a But since yelp does not let you give half stars I would round off this overpriced place to a
