Restaurant casualties of COVID-19

Not super traditionally authentic, but I don't think that's a requirement for a restaurant to be good. Recent deliveries were quite poor, though I'd eaten in a couple months ago and thought it was still quite good (though they'd clearly cut costs).

I went for a pretty classic donburi dish (beef probably) IIRC, so I guess I just got unlucky.

The quality is quite good. The chef used to be at Kinkaku, so expect similar but with higher quality ingredients (as it's not AYCE). Probably won't displace Ken's as the best KW sushi, but I think it's the best quality in DTK.

Agreed, it is one of the better sushi options around. Though, it definitely doesn't displace KEN (or Watami, based on only one experience though). Even with a 20+ minute UberEats delivery I find KEN tasting consistently "fresher" than the couple minutes walk to Enjoy.

Off topic: Are you able to enter as a general tourist now, or were you there for business or something else? I would love to go back...
