Not authentic, limited selection.

I entered this small restaurant expecting some old school sushi, but all I got was bunch of posers. The waiter greeted us by saying they didn't have california rolls or spicy tuna, only traditional sushi. I said fine, you can't get more traditional than my taste. I sat down and asked for menu. She said there was none. I asked for sake list but there was none. Only sake was Onigoroshi, which is my favorite. So I ordered a bottle even through they were charging 100 bucks for it. It usually cost 60 bucks in most restaurants. So I started ordering my standard choices first. I asked for O'toro, uni, miragui, hamachi, etc. I avoid omakase in restaurant I go for the first time. They were all average in taste. O'toro was shu'toro at best. I told this to waitress and asked for more fatty belly cut. She said they didn't have it. For second round of ordering, I asked her if she recommended anything. No recommendation. I asked if they had anything alive. She said no. I had few other items like Ankimo and Aji, which were OK. I left feeling unsatisfied. Traditional my foot. This place is more like crappy sushi joint frontin to be authentic sushi restaurant. Only amateurs will be fooled. Don't be a poser!
