Had the premium omakase. Food was good, though I am not convinced that it is different enough from the classic version to be worth the price mark up. Service was slow and it took nearly 30 minutes to get the first course out. Waiter was constantly apologizing for “discrepancies” in the kitchen. With the new change in ownership, we can’t help but wonder if the restaurant is short staffed to meet demand.
