Between the green wasabi, rainbowed strips of raw fish, and shots of sake, it is worth every cent. But, there are always exceptions to the rule.For instance, I've had to settle with the fact that Arizona sized portions of sake are very small (due to the strict drinking laws around here). A bottle of sake is 6 to 8oz.
