We had plans to go to Raku, but when we called to see if we needed reservations for 2, they said they couldn't take us until 10:30 pm. That was too late for us, so I headed to Yelp to find an alternative.\n\nLike other reviews have already mentioned, Tokyo is in an unassuming (ghetto) strip mall. When we walked in, we were greeted and seated quickly. Hubby and I decided to share the small sashimi plate ($45) and teriyaki chicken/tempura dinner ($13.50). \n\nOur meal started with miso soup, chawanmushi, and namasu. The small sashimi plate came with almost 30 pieces of assorted fish. I'm from Hawaii, so I eat a lot of raw fish, but there were a few fishes I don't usually eat as sashimi (halibut, halibut fin, butterfish, etc.). All the fish was really fresh, and the pieces were pretty big. The sashimi plate also comes with some side dishes that we were unaware of -- we were surprised when they brought us saba, a corn and cheese dish, and grilled mushrooms. I was so full by the time the chicken/tempura dinner came. It was so much food, I couldn't eat anymore. Hubby thought the chicken was overcooked and a little dry. He said the tempura was okay. The sashimi was definitely the highlight of the meal for me.
