spouse went Yoroi, i went full Kabuto. in the middle of the service they gave us opportunity to order a la carte nigiri (essentially providing an opportunity get seconds of the things we already had and liked, but of course you can try other things as well). the grill items, like everything else, were great.
Mal, you're probably better off only getting one omakase and ordering the rest a la carte like Chop suggested. haven't done the math but i think it will be easier on the wallet.
when you make the reservation (and you have to), request a seat at the bar.
