This restaurant has an outdoor patio lined with dog bowls. Indoors is a large bar area, some traditional tables and mostly smaller bar tables.
We tried two amazing appetizers. Today (lucky us) they had a $5. special on salmon collars with ponzu sauce.
WOW! This was fresh as can be and prepared to perfection. It just melts in your mouth.
We also tried some sushi. Tried the yuzu hama (yellowtail and yuzu kasha ((Asian condiment of yuzu citrus, garlic & pepper)) )
Unique and delicious! Even the rice is nicely seasoned just so.
For my main I tried the JFC Sandwich (Japanese fried chicken thigh, citrus slaw, really amazing pickle chips, spicy JFC sauce, and truffle fries.
I never had chicken like this before. It’s crispy but is so tender and moist that I can break it up with just my fork. GOSH it’s FORKING Delicious! All the flavors together are delicious. The pickles cut threw and make it pop! The bun is tasty and toasted nice but I need to skip most of it and the fries so I have room to try dessert. The fries today seem kinda average so I’m good skipping most of them. The fries also seem to lack a truffle flavor today…But the chicken sandwich is amazing. It’s hard to see but they also branded the bun.

My husband tried the Aztec Turkey Combo (Turkey, Gruyere cheese, baby arugula, Vermont cheddar, and tomato soup)
The tomato soup is rich delicious and also laced with cheese. My husband said that this was the best turkey sandwich that he has ever eaten. The turkey is great, lots of quality cheeses, artisan breads. It’s just the best!
The signature dessert is a French toast ube (Japanese sweet potato) with fruit dessert. I saw them and they look beautiful but are also humungous so I went for the Ube churro.
It came with a little ice cream and was a just right sweet ending.
