Sit with Victor. People say he's the best in the city at adapting an to what you actually like. The room is tiny and the gets called excellent. One long writeup disagreed, calling the forgettable and the appetizers over sauced. A few also left hungry.

replying to u/MrCakemeat: They’re definitely not newer. They ARE very traditional and fairly unapologetic in their approach. What did you not enjoy?
“None of the nigiri pieces stood out from the meal. I found the appetizers over sauced (eg yuzu sashimi with too much soy sauce). One of the white fish sashimi tasted plain bad - I think it had some raw squid or octopus on it and it was just a bad bite.”
