We so badly wanted to enjoy this restaurant but it was tough since we had experienced some of the best sushi in the world from Sukiyabashi Jiro in Japan. We were lucky enough to have a high palate that we had to knock quite a few stars on this review. You know the nigiri is not comparable to sushi master Jiro Ono when chef Hiro-san said he cried after he ate at Jiro's.

Yeah, they have started doing this I think...but it relies on other yelp users realizing that the review sucks...which doesn't happen

And still my friends always wonder why I hate yelp.

I feel like it is useful for things that don't have critical coverage. Nobody in the newspaper is reviewing the local barber shops or hardware stores and locksmiths.

If I need something like that, yelp is far better than grabbing a random place out of the yellow pages. For a restaurant, I'd rather read some reviews from practiced critics who know how to write a review for a wide audience. They know what to look for and generally aren't going to leave a poor review because of something they personally dislike but that they know many other people are fond of.
