Frommer's Review
The bountiful bento box displayed near the entrance mesmerizes diners awaiting seats. It typically contains a crispy shrimp and calamari salad, salmon skin roll, two vegetable dumplings, a tofu salad, and a chicken katsu pizza. At lunch, it's easily enough for two. And given the indifferent decor of plastic room dividers and skimpy representations of irises and lotus blossoms, it's a good thing the focus is on the food to come. Three or four chefs operate at the sushi bar in back, employing truly fresh fish to turn out dumplings and rolls both traditional and cross-cultural in character. In the latter category are jalapeño shrimp with ponzu sauce and the mango chicken roll with cilantro, hot peppers, lettuce, and mayo. (Mayo?) Odd or conventional, most items work to happy satisfaction.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
