    The kaisandon was amazing - the variety of fish slices (perfectly layered on top) were so fresh. The house-made pickles and soy sauce were a perfect complement to the rice dish too. My friends ordered a salmon rice dish with a unique tea broth which they loved too. We went on a Sunday night, so it wasn't too busy. Parking was a little bit of a challenge though. Will be back one day to try the popular Omakase menu!
