Quick SummaryCozy Japanese restaurant that offers Kaiseki (prix fixe) with excellent service. Try to book reservations a few weeks in advance. The service and atmosphere were excellent. Appetizers were excellent. But the entrees and dessert were average. Was very excited to try this restaurant, but was disappointed, probably due to high expectationsFood- 4 starsThe Kaiseki was 7 courses. Started out well with the appetizers but flounded towards the finish lineThe appetizers prior to sashimi were all very good and thought out. I would give it 5 stars to startThe sashimi and sushi that came before and after the grilled and steamed dish were good and fresh. Slight compliant that the fish was slightly colder than desiredThe grilled and steamed dishes (which you have 3 options each) was when things began to somewhat unravel-Grilled lobster with tama miso sauce- the lobster was cooked perfectly, but the miso sauce was overly sweet. The balance was pretty off, which was disappointing because the lobster tail was cooked perfectly-Wagyu- I can see why a few reviewers mentioned it tasted like sausage. It was pretty disappointing-Seafood steamed in citrus bowl with miso bechamel sauce- it was interesting seeing this plate served in an orange bowl. However, the sauce was so gelatinous and heavy that it was not an enjoyable experience-Fresh water eel and monkfish liver- was really disappointed that there was bones in the eel and that the monkfish liver lacked any flavor. The whole dish was overly sweetDessert- it was a mochi crepe with fruit sort of dessert. It was good, but would've better if served hot or warmService- 5 starsPhenomenal service. Very accommodating without being too overbearing. Ambiance/Value- 5 starsIt's a small neighborhood restaurant that makes for a great date nightBottom LinePerhaps Yoichi's catered too much to Western tastes, as the food ventured towards Fusion Japanese and didn't satisfy. The appetizers were great, but it went downhill when it got to the grilled and steamed dishes. Will add an extra star for their service and ambiance
