    I had a terrible experience at this restaurant, all because of a rude server named Memo. He made ordering unnecessarily difficult by refusing to let me point at the dish I wanted, insisting that I pronounce the name—even when it was a difficult Japanese name. When I tried to show him the picture, he rudely complained that my finger was covering the name instead of just recognizing the dish from the image. On top of that, he refused to pack my lunch special to-go right away, saying it had to be served at the table first, or they would charge me full price. This made no sense and felt like an arbitrary rule. His attitude was dismissive, rude, and unhelpful, completely ruining what was supposed to be a nice lunch with my friend. To make matters worse, when I checked out, he didn’t say a single word to me—not even a simple “thank you.” Overall, the service was unprofessional, unfriendly, and frustrating. I wouldn’t come back if he’s working.

    Terrible experience. Dirty bathrooms with no soap or toilet paper and mediocre service to say the least. Spilled a drink and the waiter just dropped off paper towels but did not help to clean up. Rushed service which makes you feel stressed instead of enjoying your dinner. Pretty awful. Won’t be back.
