Koyama's Japanese fare is what you might expect from the Hong Kong
brand's new Xintiandi outlet: conservative, expensive and good-but not
great.

The menu is a voluminous affair, with a dizzying, almost textbook-like
presentation of the restaurant's seafood offerings. Overwhelmed by the
menu's scope, we diplomatically selected the assorted Deluxe Platter (RMB
250 for 8 pcs sushi and 2 tuna rolls). The sushi was fresh but not
particularly flavorful, and we worried about those pieces which arrived
at or above room temperature. Both the toro roll (RMB 80) and the
assorted tempura (RMB 75) were satisfying, though they proved far easier
on the palate than on the pocketbook.

In the end, while this is a fine choice for an expense-account meal,
value-conscious sushi lovers will dine elsewhere.
