😒 3/5 - Over-rated; shouldn’t be one star Michelin

This is a very good sushi restaurant - don’t get me wrong. But it is just over-rated.
The fish is as fresh and as good as they come, but my criticism comes from the lack of creativity and differentiation for a one star restaurant. I can very much claim to have tried some of the best sushi restaurants around the world, and Michelin starred sushi restaurants always have one thing in common: giving you some pieces that can only be experienced at that restaurant. This is either via the sourcing of fish (arising from superb knowledge of seasons and where, globally, to acquire the fish from which source and via connections), the way the piece is put together (flavoring), or both.
As you can see from my photos, there is pretty much zero surprise from beginning to end. Every piece of fish/dish I can recognize and taste I can recall. The preparation is exactly how it is - plain vanilla with soy sauce.
If you are looking for a first class, run of the mill experience but with the best fish of its class, then you should come here. My view is that the chef is simply not experienced enough (he’s too young). He couldn’t have had learnt either the deep culinary skills or having the network/relationships for fish sourcing to provide a world class experience.
And the fact that the restaurant has 2 seatings, 6 and 8:30, really bothers me. It means that commercial opportunity is prioritized over experience. The preparation of fish is “altogether” when each piece is served, and without a team (solo chef) it is clearly very taxing on the chef. The focus was therefore execution rather than thought and careful preparation.
The price is reasonable at $250 for omakase, but then again comparatively the price-to-value isn’t that great. My suggestion is for the restaurant to go back to the basics first. Really earn that star rather than trying to maximize the commercial opportunity at the same time.
