A: Out for late dinner, we were thinking of trying Yonaka but neither of us were in the mood for izakaya.  Looking for something interesting on Spring Mountain, we drove past this place and recalled wanting to try when we were heading to a Thai restaurant a few weeks ago.  We figured what the heck, we thought it was izakaya-ish but was more in the mood for kashi-age so decided to give it a try.  Inside is simple but cozy with a bar to the right and not more than 10 tables inside.  Servers are very pleasant and, aside from the initial order taking which took a bit of time, service was also timely.  They take the time to tell you each order also, which was very helpful when we received our 10 piece kashi-age set.    We ordered the 10-piece kashi-age sampler, tofu salad, and a mackerel battera.  Loved the tofu salad with a big dallop of tofu, although the dressing could have been a bit less soy saucy.  The kashi-age was also excellent, with nicely crisped coating and each of the 10 different ingredients being very good (well, beef was okay).  But the star of the meal was the mackerel battera.  Lettuce leaf sandwiched by rice is cut in cubes and topped with thin piece of cooked mackerel.  That sounds pretty standard, but the rice was perfectly cooked and seasoned and the mackerel was just salty enough to provide a load of flavor.  Honestly this is the best sushi rice I've had, possibly ever.  We are coming back here to try some other interesting dishes on their menu.  It's probably a 4.5 star overall given the excellent service, but I'll give it a 4 since I would say much of what we had probably measures up to a 4 (except the battera).  Table-for-1 Factor:  They have a bar area much like a sushi bar where you can sit, order, and watch them make your food.  So I think it would certainly be good for 1 in much the same way as sushi bars would be.

Q: negative

A: Had been here many times before during happy hour. I guess they stopped doing it just a few weeks ago. Thanks for still advertising that you DO have have it. Literally doubled my bill. Will NOT be returning. Ever.

Q: negative

A: Bought a group on for this guy and never used it. He was so unbelievably unprofessional I decided to go to someone else. I called him on two separate occasions to set up a time for him to come do my car. Each time he would answer the phone with only "this is greg". He would then say was away from his scheduling book and would ask me to text him my scheduling request and he would get back to me. He never got back to me to schedule the appointment and both of these calls were placed during normal business hours. Although, one call was placed during the weekend the other was a weekday

Q: positive

A:
Answer: We got VIP passes to this place so we thought to check it out. We were not disappointed! We didnt have to wait in line or pay (thats always nice). We walked into 3 great dance floors with 3 different types of music (although we spend most of the time on the main floor). Good space for dancing and a lot of space for walking (and watching) along the bar sides. Friendly bartenders and go go dancers. I really have nothing bad to say about this place as I enjoyed it very much : D
