I had to try Roppongi based on the Yelp reviews!!!! They did a Living Social a few months back and we passed on it. Why? Their location sucks!
I am a rock star! I walked in for lunch and the server recognized me from my multiple forays to Rusans's Sushi in Charlotte. He is a regular at Rusans's! I thought so far, so good....
Then the owner comes to my table, he recognized me from a sushi joint that he used to roll sushi at over in the Kannapolis area. Okay small world, and I am thinking, well this is getting better and better.
I had the 3 Maki roll lunch special. The spicy crab, the peanut-avo and the eel avo rolls. All were of excellent quality. Generous portions of meat and extra large chunk of avocado. The spicy mayo was homemade with real Japanese Mayo, mmm mmm. I would rate these 8 or 9. The peanut-avo roll was different and the peanuts / avo compliment eachother pretty awesome, giving a unique flavor.
The restaurant is ultra clean and very tastefully decorated. I look forward to going back with my wife for a full blown meal.
