Pleasant room, bland thai food.

by corkyspetals at Citysearch

First time there, I met people early in the evening. It wasn't busy, the food came fast. The sushi was decent, but I'm no sushi expert. The Pad Thai had too much ketchup (you don't HAVE TO use ketchup in Pad Thai) couldn't taste any garlic, fish sauce or chilies. Had something in green curry. It was bright green and had nearly no flavor. Even if it had chilies in it, it shouldn't be bright green. Had something else that didn't even register. I never knew thai food could be bland. Bring your own garlic, chilies, spices and fish sauce.

  • Pros: dining room pleasant
  • Cons: the food

Great Food

by greenphoenix1982 at Citysearch

A friend brought me here on a Tuesday night, no wait to sit. Jae, the chef knows his stuff AND the regulars names! Had almost everything on the happy hour menu including 4 glasses of plum wine. FANTASTIC FOOD. Would recommend this place to anyone.

  • Pros: Great food, good service.
  • Cons: Parking in the area can be a little difficult

Good food, very slow service

by sfyre at Citysearch

We arrived at 6:30, in time for a bit of happy hour and took advantage of the $2 Sapporos and $4 selection of sushi (we had the unagi, seattle and albacore tataki) which was fairly good. It took a very long time for the tataki to come out first, then at least another 20 minutes until we got the sushi. It was surprising as it wasn't busy at all, but it did have a nice ambience outside.

My husband had good luck with his main course, a special with rice noodles, pork and dry green curry--I went with the sure bet (i thought) and had the Chicken Pad Thai. They only had 3 star spice ratings, so I was safe and went for the 2 star. If you like things with at least a bit of kick, try 3 star pad thai or something else. It was way too sweet and I'm sure I won't eat my leftovers.

Was looking forward to trying out this place for a bit, but not sure when (if) I will return.

  • Pros: Ambience
  • Cons: Wait, Service

THE WORST EXCUSE FOR A RESTAURANT

by hellyand at Citysearch

i don't know why we still even try to order from this awful restauarant. it isn't good sushi anyway. the only reason we do try b/c it is the only sushi close by to pick up and every time it is a problem, the girl who answers the phone doesn't know what planet shes on. every time it is an ordeal, the food isn't good like Wasabi, Hana or Ohana. tonight, the girl dare answer the phone and said it was an hour wait for pick up. we hesitantly said ok and then she said "are you serious? you wanna wait an hour? we are really busy". Obviously she didn't want us to order. I am done, I will never ever go there again...a total joke.

  • Pros: none
  • Cons: bad food, bad service, bad attitudes

Yummy, Yummy

by zebdog at Citysearch

One of our favorite sushi restaurants in town. Jae has fresh, delicious fish and his preparations are excellent and creative.

We would recommend sitting at the Sushi bar and allowing Jae to whip up a menu for you based on what is fresh and his favorites -- you won't be disappointed.

If you don't choose the omakasa option, order the negihama hand roll, TNT roll or sashimi with a ponzu sauce.

Chinoise is also family friendly and toddlers are frequent visitors to the sushi bar. Be sure to check out the happy hour M-F, 5 - 6:30 for some very good deals.

  • Pros: Great Sushi Bar, Happy Hour
  • Cons: Parking
