Oyster is very fresh and highly recommend that. Sashimi is also good. Pieces are big. Garlic clam is pretty standard. Ceviche can be better as it’s not as tasty as the ones I tried in Costa Rica but it’s decent.
Still believe uni pasta is one of the best on their menu. I live in Houston and have friends came from NJ but neither of us can find similar food in our cities.That being said, their food portion has shrunk a lot.I understand inflation but from 2-3 people portion to 1 person portion did not justify the inflation.
Nothing wrong with this place and we were seated immediately, which was nice after walking a while. Someone I know loves this place and says the charred garlic oysters and sea bass are the best. So we ordered both along with crispy clams and brussel sprouts. Everything was good and we ate everything but nothing I would end up craving I'm in no rush to go back especially when lunch ends up being over $100 for two people.
Very simple, EMC failed in every category. Service, overpriced, cheap wine that costs $15 a bottle is their house Cabernet that they charge $20 a glass that is small stingy pour. 4% surcharge for minimum wage boost added at end when bill comes to further ruin your experience
Went for Saturday dinner with my wife and ordered oysters to start while sitting at the bar. We ended up getting the Toro crab roll and the crab garlic noodles. The flavor was OK but terribly over priced for what we got. The oysters were pretty good, but $30 for garlic noodles with no noticeable crab present and $20 for basically a California roll with blended tuna on top is quite disappointing. I enjoyed the specialty uni noodles last time I was here so I would encourage people to try that but be careful when ordering anything else from the menu since most of it is bland with an insignificant sprinkle of a premium ingredient to justify a high price tag.
The foods here are delicious and the service was great! I especially love the atmosphere in here, it's very cozy and romantic in my opinion. I came here to celebrate my birthday as well as Christmas and one staff noticed that it was my birthday so he gave me a FREE dessert of my choice and put a lit up candle on top of it for me ? thank you so much!!! I came here twice already and the experiences are always good, nothing to complain ? Thank goodness they open on Christmas Eve and Christmas days, or else we wouldn't know where else to go.
Loved their uni pasta: creamy, and right amount of salt! Goes well with seaweed as always. Smoked oysters were bomb, highly recommend.
Finally got to come to one of their locations. This one is located in San Jose in Santana Row. Love the area but of course like other big cities, it’s hard to find parking near the restaurant. But on the plus side there are public parking lots.The restaurant is not very big, it’s actually quite tight inside. They have outside dining. We sat inside but it was more of a side patio (hall wall) and can get chilly but they have heaters on. I love the choices we made. We ordered tempura calamari, seafood fried rice, spicy grilled oysters (a must), and for the main dish the King Crab Legs. Loved all of it, very tasty and soooo good! FYI, Pinot Grigio really for great with seafood! Love love love!I was surprised that the way they presented the King crab legs was not not picture worthy but it’s ok. Still good. You be the judge. Check out the pictures and let me know in the comments :).Staff: the host was very friendly and so was our server. It seemed like he was the only one working, he was hustling and bustling! I’ll come here again.
Poor service & over-priced for quality..poor qualities of oysters....ordered Uni Pasta and came a jambalaya-udon-carbonara with a hint of uni
Great food, heated outside dining ❤️
