I visited the restaurant to celebrate my cousin's graduation from college with delicious sushi. The sushi was all very delicious, the sake was also delicious, and it was truly a wonderful restaurant. However, I really wanted to write this review... We arrived early, wrote our names, waited outside for a while, and were seated right by the entrance. There were plenty of empty tables further inside, but maybe it was because we were young...? We came wanting to enjoy delicious food for the same price, but despite the back being quite empty when we arrived early. We were seated right by the entrance, in a 4-person table with just 2 of us. When the sake was brought to us, it felt a bit cold. When we ordered the first sake on our previous visits, they overflowed it for us, but when we ordered a second kind, they didn't. While enjoying sake and appetizers with my cousin, they silently placed tea in front of us... as if urging us to leave quickly. I couldn't help but feel pressured. When I came with my mother before, there was no such attitude, so I wondered if we were being looked down upon as young customers. It made me feel very uncomfortable (I apologize for my subjective opinion). When I came with my mother, the staff were friendly and explained the sake to us. It was a wonderful restaurant, which is why I decided to visit again. But this time, I felt a bit sad despite coming to celebrate. In Italy, there are occasionally restaurants that discriminate against people of Asian descent by not allowing them in the back and seating them outside. It felt similar and unpleasant. Nevertheless, the food was delicious, and although I couldn't see it this time, the night view is beautiful. It was disappointing this time, but the restaurant is lovely... a bit disheartening...
