I came here a few days ago because I saw that there was a new, highly-rated sushi place near Brentwood. The interior of the place looked clean and welcoming, and the prices seemed reasonable, so I gave it a shot.
I ordered a Salmon Wave Plate (Combo B) from their brunch menu and was pleasantly surprised with the taste of the items and the aesthetics of the dish. That being said, I cannot speak about the sanitary nature or hygiene of this restaurant. I also felt wary about eating each part of the dish for reasons I will describe below.
When I was waiting for my order, I noticed that the chef did not use any gloves to handle the food. The cashier also helped out at one point but I wasn't sure if he had washed his hands after handling my cash payment. Of course, they may have washed their hands but my problem lays in the Salmon Oshi in the dish I ordered.
I am someone that usually cuts their sushi rolls in half before I eat them. Upon cutting the first Salmon Oshi roll, I found a short strand of hair in the rice. I thought this could be a one-off thing, so I dismissed it. However, when I cut the other Salmon Oshi rolls, I found more strands of hair. There were three Salmon Oshi rolls in total, but there was a strand of hair in each one (see photos below). One strand of hair, I could understand because cross-contamination is inevitable. But three? I am sorry to say that I was a bit disgusted. This made me uncomfortable with finishing my dish but I was too nervous to bring it up to the cashier.
I wanted to enjoy this place because of its reasonable pricing and aesthetic plating. However, I can't enjoy a restaurant if I do not feel comfortable with its hygienic practices, especially since I will be consuming this food.
