This was a great little place, nice homey ambiance, very nice people We got there close to closing time, but they just told us to take our time. read more This was a great little place, nice homey ambiance, very nice people We got there close to closing time, but they just told us to take our time.

Ordered a dalandan juice which came in a glass packed with ice. Three slurps of the straw and the juice was gone. I commented on this, and got a second glass, still stuffed with ice, but happily at no extra charge. The host on seeing me complain to his waiter staff steered clear of me... Not very proactive. When the lunch set 5 kinds of sashimi came, I was pleasantly surprised by the pretty presentation. However, the 5 kinds of sashimi included two thin slices of octopus and, wait for it, kani crabsticks and omelette... The last time I went snorkeling, I didn't notice crabstick fish or omelette sharks... Neither of these are sashimi! I would have provided feedback to the host guy in charge, but he never once approached me. All in all, a very disappointing finish to what looked to be a promising start. Air conditioning is also too strong, almost blowing a gail. I left glad to get back out to the sun to warm back up.
