``I have only eaten here once but remember it for two things:

``1. The quality of the food was overall much higher than most any other sushi restaurant I have eaten at before.

``2. The cost was also overall much higher than any other I have eaten at before. Knowing I am an American, the amount of food was not a lot at all, but it was the most I have ever paid for sushi.

``Given those two facts, the experience was very different than other sushi restaurants. My guest and I were treated very respectfully. The long time for service was actually pleasant. The crowd seemed very business-like, almost as if it was a meeting place for Japanese business men.

``Dishes were presented very nicely. Even the gom-ae was wrapped beautifully and presented in nice dishes, not plastic.

``I recommend this for anyone who is downtown and wants to splurge on sushi once in awhile or all of the time. ''
