The difference between other food writers and us is we'd rather tell it to you like it is rather than kiss up to restaurateurs. So all those reviews telling you how great this spot is? Wrong. Despite having Le Bernardin’s Eric Ripert, the bizarre Japanimation projection mural was distracting and the entrees not very good. As anyone in the biz will tell you, starters are the easy part, and that's what is acceptable here. Specifically the Spanish mackerel tartare. Other than that? Fish is under cooked, pork over cooked and you are forced to keep adding to your bill by ordering sushi rolls to full your tummy. Pass.
