So here's the deal...your enjoyment of this place is going to be almost entirely predicated on your understanding of the expectations on YOU as a customer in a high end sushi restaurant. (This is Japan, this is not the land of "the customer is always right") The bulk of poor reviews/complaints are essentially foreigners who have no idea what is expected of them and then are upset at the results. Here are some general rules for omokase (chef's choice sushi) protocol 1) You are expected to eat the sushi within 10 seconds of it hitting your tray. This is for quality/temperature reasons. 2) You are not supposed to dip the sushi rice first into soy sauce. 3) You are not supposed to mix wasabi into the soy sauce. 4) You are not supposed to take pictures. 5) You are not to leave belongings on the counter. 6) You are expected to eat everything. The chef has prepared an order to the meal and declining a piece or giving one away is bad form. 7) You are supposed to be respectful of other customers. These are not the place for loud conversations or being boisterous. If you expect to be fawned over, treated like a king or queen, ask for more of this or less of that (at this or any other omokase place), then this is the wrong choice for you. Period. My experience was basically...show up on time. Takashi Ono (the head chef and Jiro's son) took my coat, I was given green tea while I waited (I was early), seated on time and given 15 delicious pieces of nigiri, handed a business card (accepted with two hands per Japanese custom), paid and left full and satisfied. The sushi style is heavier on vinegar that you otherwise might be used to (the Jiro style also present in any of Jiro, Takahsi or Yoshikazu's apprentices who have opened their own restaurants) and the pace is not like crazy fast or anything but it's not slow either. This is not a two hour experience but if you can't eat 15 pieces of sushi in a half hour, there is something wrong with you. Is Takashi warm and fuzzy? No he's not. But sitting next to a German couple, one half let the sushi back up to three pieces at one point, the other half who "couldn't eat rice" (among other issues), I kinda get why he might be short with foreigners who make up the bulk of his customers (my seating was 100% foreigners). Also, if you can't find this place, you just didn't look hard enough. It's entrance is literally the only thing on that corner of the building. Google what the sign looks like. It's not hard to find. Go in with an understanding of what is on offer and how you are expected to act and all "problems" are going to disappear. If you can't handle that then save your money and go for Kaiten (conveyer belt) sushi instead. That will be much cheaper, much less frustrating and nobody cares if you don't eat a piece, share with your friend or what not.
