I was really rootin and tootin for the AYCE sashimi underdog, but... Hikari's fish quality had a slight fishy aftertaste that coated my taste buds and wouldn't let go. Also, I just couldn't get past the irregular, sloppy, square cuts, with browning sides, on the sashimi. It all lacked the sweetness and moistness that I came to love in fresh quality fish. I have come to the realization that I am a hard core snob when it comes to the freshness of my seafood. It needs to meet these criteria in order for me to be happy: fresh, sweet, buttery, and tender. After I sampled the disappointing sushi rolls, nigiri loaded with dense rice, fishy oysters, fishy sashimi, far from fresh uni, and weird tiny ama ebi that wasn't sweet at all, I stuck to the (cooked) dishes that were safe on my stomach and didn't offend my taste buds. My favorites of the night: - Miso soup - I had 5 consecutive bowls! The miso was piping hot and perfect. (Might also be because I was hungry and the fish was questionable). - Fried soft shell crab - squirt some lemon on it and dip it in ponzu! I loved the light batter and the crispiness of these. - Baked mussels - they weren't plump or juicy as other places would make them, but they did the job. - Dynamite - Great flavor but made 99% of vegetables and about 4 tiny pieces of scallop. Flavor was there though! - Some of the poke salad - half of it tasted refreshing and well seasoned with the seaweed and cucumbers, but there were also some bad cuts of fish thrown in the mix :/ For $27 AYCE, I really felt that I was extremely limited on what I could order. All you can eat sashimi was a lie. It's way too dry and fishy to be considered sashimi (in my books). Also, they seriously packed the dense rice bricks underneath each nigiri and no dessert!? :( I ate like a little birdy here (highly unlike me). I suppose it's kind of ideal to eat at a not so stellar place from time to time - It forces me eat a normal portion of food and not try to stuff myself to the brim. (Trust me, I would of kept the food coming if it was delicious!) So in the end, I suppose my belly wins.

OPT: [+] negative. [+] positive.
