Rude staff. They hold your credit card at the bar. Which is very strange and I believe against the law. It was my first time here and won't come back. I had to ask for the credit card and the bartender would not give me back. I had to use a stronger tone and got my card back after much back and forth argument with the bartender. Won't recommend this place to anyone.

Wow they will be extremely grumpy when they go to every other bar on earth.

yelpers are really good at being completely bewildered by standard practices and procedures. cf. the gushing, died-and-gone-to-heaven reviews of bookstores with a recommendation wall, and the vicious takedowns of movie theaters with overpriced candy and snacks. OUTRAGEOUS

shop cats are the best
although I might not eat those cookies sat out in the open in the bottom-right of picture
(PS I would totally still eat those cookies but maybe they ought to put them a bit higher up or behind a counter I guess)(PPS this is not legal advice and I am not a qualified health code inspector)

OK I have to admit I too have never heard of this practice of the bar keeping your credit card but I looked it up and I see it's a thing. I think it's because if I'm drinking at a bar I am pretty much always actually sitting at the bar so in that situation I guess there's no reason for them to fear you walking out on the tab?
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Wednesday, 26 October 2016 12:36 (seven years ago) link
where I'm at now, it's becoming a thing of the past. lots of bartenders now will just scan your card, then hand it back once it's fed into their system. but I still go to quite a few that keep it too, doesn't really bother me.

I always feel awkward for those 20 seconds where you're not sure if they're keeping your card or not, cos if you bolt they run you down to hand you your card, and if you stand there they go "can oy help yoo?"
― Neanderthal, Wednesday, 26 October 2016 23:23 (seven years ago) link
a thing you can do is ask if they're going to keep your card

Last time I was here, it was before I developed a palate, one that is of a food critic!
This time, I'm laying the hammer down after what I have tasted.
The lunch special combo of Chicken Teriyaki and Gyoza was not good. The chicken was grilled perfectly, but the teriyaki sauce was way too salty! Teriyaki is supposed to be sweet, not Morton-like! I think I'm going to call them Mortonyaki. It was a plus when they have their salad dressing on the table with the condiments, so that I can squeeze the sauce into the meal, as the dressing has some sweet goodness to it. The salad had no flavor; it didn't matter if I squeezed anymore salad dressing into it, the salad just eats up the flavor. The gyoza was good and crispy. Rice was hard and because of that difficult to swallow.
Oh yeah, the coke was good.
Didn't do the restroom drill, so don't know if it is clean though.
Place that I can say bye-bye!
btw for the record the "salad" he's referring to is literally plain iceberg lettuce, which is served on the side of basically every single teriyaki meal...so he's critiquing their plain lettuce for not having flavor. but at least their coke was okay.

you're not supposed to actually eat the salad at a teriyaki place, it's decorative

I always say no salad when I order teriyaki, that way they give you more rice - just a handy trick I developed, one that is of a person who lives in Seattle

they dip the whole store in a giant bowl of sauce

A teriyaki shop is a counter-service restaurant that sells chicken teriyaki and assorted other things, like for instance spicy chicken, katsu chicken, chicken and gyoza, maybe some other proteins or preparations. It comes with rice and salad from a bag with some indistinct white dressing on it. They're all over the place in Seattle, they're good.

From Mr. Food Critic - "service again was good, the staff even made sure we know wat sauce was wat on our table.. very kind, sir but we're not novices"
If that didn't involve a tip o' the fedora, I would be amazed.
