   The food was good. I had Shokado Bento Box. The price? I think overall foods are overpriced. My guest had a Sushi lunch. That was $60 worth $40 at most. My lunch box was $45 worth $25-30 at most. I looked at the pictures before going to the restaurant; therefore, I knew the prices. I reconfirmed my sense of monetary value to the dishes today. Maybe I am a cheap person, but I don't think so.

    My waiter helped me select some specialty dishes and sake. He was very attentive when I asked for things that they are famous at but that the other Japanese restaurants don’t all have. Glad to have returned to nippon
