What Elsie Hunt doesn't like about Daruma Japanese Restaurant:
Note: Dinner is very different from lunch. This was dinner. Got confused by their ordering system as it wasn't explained properly nor was it clear. Maybe it was just tonight that the waiters weren't willing to help? Food was deceptively smaller than what the menu generously shows. Food was average compared to other city places for Japanese, added the very long weight time, higher price for something more average and... View all feedback. What LisaLisa likes about Daruma Japanese Restaurant:
Very friendly and attentive although she was the only waitress on the floor last night. The dishes are in good quality. Shabu Shabu set is reasonably generous. The beef is worth to go back for seconds. Will visit again in near future! View all feedback.
