First time at a Japanese restaurant with no miso soup, cucumber salad, Sapporo, Kirin or Asahi, out of multiple sakes on their menu. Service slow and got many things wrong in my order

Our bill was $1k. We had 4 alcoholic drinks total. Rolls were $40-50 each and not very flavorful. The patio setting was nice, but a little chilly even with the heaters. Service was just ok.

This was our second time to sakaba and it didn’t disappoint. The tuna crispy rice, winter salad, and miso cod can’t be missed. Neither can dessert. We had to send a drink back once bc it was watered down tasting, but other than that the experience was excellent.
