Very disappointed in the Beef Watercress. Hardly any watercress which was overcooked. I expected it to be like the Chop Steak (just beef with Watercress) instead it was mixed in with a soupy long rice. Love the Chop Steak & Namasu. The Big Breakfast eggs were nothing like your photo. Eggs were cooked in reused cooking oil very oily as you can see from the picture I took to the Sekiya's picture.

I used to eat at Sekiya all the time when i lived in the area in the early 2000s. One of my fave spots. So it was disappointing to have everything in my order be a miss. Maki sushi - rice was hard and dry, didn't taste like sushi rice. Mahi was overcooked and bland. Oyako Don was super salty and the rice was hard and dry. It's was 75% rice with very little chicken and egg and practically no dashi. The miso must've been on the stove evaporating all day because even after I added a 1/2 cup of water to it, it was still super salty. So sad. I hate giving them a bad review, but honestly, 80% of it went in the trash.

Portions were generous. Fries were still crispy when they arrived. Burger a bit dry. Loved the fried saimin. Nori maki is delicious and hefty.

For the price you pay, youd think they gave decent chopsticks. The rice was mushy for both plates. The tokatsu was dry the sauce wasnt even buldog and that makes me angry. The miso soup was too salty. And the nitsuke was oily. Although it was just edible.
They elders made a mistake handing down the business to the younger generation. I have been a customer for two genrations and i am apalled at the low quality this place has become. Never going back.
