Thanks for the report.
One of the my favorite things there was his Hokkigai “surf clam” which I had the pleasure of enjoying on one of my first visit there in his new digs back in late 2011, but have not seen him serve it ever since (and I go quite frequently).

… are back! Summer truffles now in stock.
Do you know approx how many pieces in the $65 omakase?
By chance can anyone compare Kimagure in Pasadena vs Tanaka in Simi Valley with respect to QPR?
Experience and QPR: Tanaka > Kimagure
Thanks @ipsedixit. The Hokkigai sounds great; it seems maybe some of the more exotic / rarer fish aren’t as prevalent in the offerings these days.
Hi @Ns1,
I don’t know about the nigiri-only option (at $65), but the Hana option at $65 (w/ Seafood Salad, Sashimi and Sushi) had about 6 pieces of Sushi (in addition to the other items).
Had a FANTASTIC lunch here today
Forgot to take pic of starter (monkfish liver) and hamachi nigiri
Bonus round
Definitely the Aji. Ike San said it was from Kyushu, Japan. Best piece of Aji I’ve ever had.
