Lon had a positive experience at 15 East 15 East when he went for lunch with Steve & Justin. Of course when he told me about it, I insisted on going. We decided to try dinner this past weekend and although it was a generally enjoyable meal, we both felt that it was way over-priced.

The amuse bouche was described to us as a tomato tofu but it was much more of a block of tomato gelee. I really did not like it!!! It was actually a bit nauseating. We decided on 2 entrees to split, the sashimi omakase, and the Salmon 5 Ways. It's a good thing we weren't that hungry because the sashimi portion was minuscule. It came with an average soup (clear broth with some mushrooms and a shrimp ball) and 10 very small pieces of sashimi. It was very good quality sashimi but not the best I've had and definitely not worth $55. The Salmon 5 Ways included poached salmon, a wet smoked salmon, salmon sashimi, salmon skin (on top of a nicely seasoned rice ball with black sesame), and salmon roe. This was a nice portion size (but not big) and both entrees were displayed very nicely.

Overall, the service was average. The decor is average. The food is good (but some dishes have small portions) . The end result is that it's not worth it's prices and we won't be going back.
