Satsuma

A confusing dining experience.

The menu is a baffling array of pictures showing tempura-ed items with a rice accompaniment. Although everything automatically comes with rice, the menu suggests this be swapped for ramen or soba (at a cost). But on asking for a vegetable ramen, I was told by the waitress “I don’t think we do that.” So I ordered salmon teriyaki and was asked if I wanted it with rice. I requested ramen and was told “sorry, salmon teriyaki comes with rice.”

The food wasn’t bad (just a little expensive), but the staff seems to be as confused about the menu as the customers.
