Tsukuneya

Service is spotless. Everyone was extremely polite and friendly. Excellent service and atmosphere! Food, however. Was quite subpar. Miso pork tonkatsu was chewy and old. The plate wasn't even sizzling when it arrived on the table. Even though the menu said "sizzle". The tsukune was tasty, they do require to order 2 sticks at a time but the price on the menu is for 1 stick so that can be confusing. Fire cracker chicken bowl was also chewy. Like they just popped the chicken in the microwave or something. After 730pm is happy hour and you can select from a short list of drinks and food for discounted rates. The restaurant is in a residential area surrounded by houses. So if you can't park in that tiny parking lot you can probably find street parking.

Loved it! A super relaxing atmosphere with a kind and attentive staff. The service was definitely a highlight. Loved having Sapporo on tap, The food was pretty good I had the fried okra and ramen. Both super simple plates, I would describe it as more classic than innovative, but nothing wrong with that!

The food was amazing. Great selection, very tasty and well executed presentation. I think their food is much better than Jenya. But the service! Yikes. Unfortunately, the service was horrible. I had to get up twice to find the server to ask for drinks to be refilled. Server was quick when initially seated but disappeared after first order. Even after going to the front to ask for the server it was another 10 min before he returned. They would sure make more money if they had attentive serving staff. I wanted to order more dishes but by the time the server came back from hiding my food had settled and I was full. Maybe a good thing for me… certainly not for the restaurant. Had the server been a little more attentive I would have given this a 5 star rating. I mean the place wasn’t packed. There was no reason to not attend to us. So, my experience was…. Excellent food but seriously poor execution of service. I will go back, hopeful that I just got a server on a bad night. The food is that good.
