to be sure, this outlet isn’t the best one (the paragon one is). the back (where we were seated) is a rather cramped, darkish rectangle of mutliple booths for two. it felt a little like office cubicles actually, so I wouldn’t say this is any place to bring a date – but for a casual dinner it did us pretty well.
we had good food on the table (which means the kitchens were well up to par – rather impressive for the crowd they were dealing with). the aburi salmon roll was fantastic – the salmon was generously silky and fatty, with a thin flamed outside with some char. the kaki mentai roll – or fried oyster in rice, topped with cod-roe mayonnaise – was also another discovery. I think it was the textural contrast of crispy batter + soft oyster + creamy mayo that worked. there was far too much mayonnaise on it though – but we easily schmeared it away.
the kagoshima katsu toji was tender and moist and not-too-fatty – delicious; this was part of their seasonal menu (that I think will be available for a month more).
we rounded up the meal with a grilled salmon head - this went down easily enough with a big helping of grated radish and lemon. so – a good dinner, made cheaper by a discount as members and vouchers (a result of loyal patronage) – we left both full and happy.
