$ashimi!!
Yes, that is a dollar sign you see there. While I will convey my enthusiasm for finding good quality maguro (tuna) sashimi, everything at this place costs a fortune. Before any courses were ordered, we were served crab-flavoured won-tons and spiced peanuts as appetite whet-ters.The wife and I started with an order of the delicious sashimi. It tasted fresh, and was cut well since it went down like butter. The wasabi was unfortunately too solidified and did not dissolve well in the soy sauce, but a few extra whips and twirls of the chopstick took care of that problem. We moved on to chicken dim sum, served with a garlicky chili paste; and a traditional Thai Som Tam salad (raw papaya, peanuts, red chilis, etc.). Both were delicious.
For the main course, we decided to keep it simple - one order of Green Curry Vegetables and sticky rice. Unfortunately, this is where Spices faltered. There was something distinctly missing from the Thai Green Curry, although neither of us could put our finger on it. The sticky rice was some variety of Indian rice, thus, not chopstick-friendly.
Fairly stuffed, and still half a bottle of Orrin Swift 2005 Prisoner to go, we opted out of dessert. They still served some fresh cut fruits, which was pleasant. The decor is what you would expect of an upscale Asian place - rock garden entrance, large, Japanese paintings, darker furniture, dimly lit...could make for a good date joint.
All in all, I would definitely go back here as perhaps the place in the suburbs for dependable sushi and good Asian tapas (small dishes) - would opt out of ordering main courses next time - but most of us are perhaps too poor to dine here regularly.

I don't want them to feel bad about it, but...
But, it's just run-of-the-mill sushi. I mean, it wasn't bad - don't get me wrong. It was good. The saba (mackeral - which is my favorite) was actually surprisingly tasty!
I think what I' saying is, it's not worth the exorbitant price. I've had much better sushi in california for half the price. Of course, you have to pay $1500 to get to California...so, what's an $80 bottle of sake? Well it's kind of a lot since they're just small bottles of sake.
Something else that struck me as odd was how tiny the fish were in the sushi case!
Anyway, like I said, it was okay but it was super expensive, I think we spent $400 for a small dinner for two.
