I co worker wanted to do sushi for his Birthday Lunch . . . and so I recommended this place since I have had great luck here before . . . godd thing he is not a big sushi person since he thought it was great, and I . . . well not so much this time.\n\nWe were seated promptly and our waiter came and got our drink order . . . Green Iced tea for me and a soda for the Birthday boy . . . hard to screw up a soda, but the green tea tasted water down and was cloudy . . . obviously not a fresh brew  (minus one star).\n\nWe both ordered the seaweed salad . . . and since I had eaten it before, I was really looking forward to it . . . the seaweed was great, but more than half the salad was arugula . . . really arugula . . . are you kidding me, I ordered a seaweed salad  (minus one half star).\n\nAlong with the salad we ordered a Lotus Roll . . . rices was not sticky, so the roll fell apart . . . the lobster was luke warm and way to chewy . . . whats going on . . . those appetizers were my go to items  (minus one half star).\n\nEntree my friend had the tempura shimp, and I had the Koshou Beef . . . the beef was tough and chewy, shitaki mushrooms were almost unrecognizable, the asparagas was over cooked and mushy . . . and the sauce . . . well lets just say it had a burnt taste to it . . . overall not a very good entree  (minus one star).\n\nThe atmosphere and service were good . . . but again . . . nothing to write home about.  I am hoping this was just an overall bad day for the this place, because it has been great in the past . . . only time will tell.
