Went to Yoshido Friday night, 6-5-09..
Met some members of Sushi meetup.
As I was Sushied out,and did not want a $30 dinner so I ordered Chicken Teriyaki dinner plate $ $12.75…
The place was filled to capacity.
Every table and Sushi Bar filled!
Servers were stressed out- my take!
The Green tea came, and not only warm (not hot) but tasteless for my palate.
The Miso came, warm also~ and worse was without flavor.
My Chicken came, and the chicken was tough, overcooked, and tasted as if it sat in some MCDonalds type holding oven, brought out and Sweet sauce poured over it. The sauce tasted like out of a Kraft Bottle…
On the table was ordered a Sushi Plate, a Sushi Pancake thing, and desert, and a Oyster- Sushi Desert with not only caviar type uni but other types also complete with a Quail Egg…
Being a Wasabi freak, I tasted the wasabi, and it was SOSO. I asked the waitress – and the wasabi was mixed from powder!
I assumption is then this is not real Wasabi, but a powdered mix of horseradish- mustard and artificial color!
The prices are over the top and what I viewed of the Sushi Plate- just was cut thin, not that much, and looked like something at Todai!
I am not impressed, and would never return!
What do people see in this place…
When I go for Japanese food, it is not only for quality but for Ambiance,and energy of the place…
Why would I want a SUSHI bar filled to capacity, with people walking up and down nearly brushing into me?
I would like something more traditional, with Japanese soothing music playing.
Maybe a place with tasteful design, not set up to maximize the space to hold maximum people!!!
Si is Yoshida!!!!!!!!!!
Try Sorafune on Garvey in Monterey Park!!!
Sushi bar has 5 chairs.
Table capacity say 25 people max…
Nice Ambiance, very clean, A DVD running playing old classic Japanese style music, and—- A true Japanese couple running it, and a traditional polite caring Waitress- in the purest Zen for a Japanese Sushi Bar……"
