Food: Edibles ordinary yet satisfying
Experience a quite ordinary menu of Japanese cuisine at Sake House By Hikari. Their crispy rice with spicy tuna, salmon sashimi, and crispy onions with seared albacore are the favorites. While the quality of taste and freshness might delve into the mediocre realm on occasions, the portions of the servings, especially for lunch, strike a neutral note - adequately filling yet variable. The value received for the price paid might raise an eyebrow or two for some dishes, but fair overall.
