| - Went with the boyfriend this early evening. We went for Happy Hour. It's noisy, and busy, but the staff were plentiful and friendly.
The HH menu of rolls and food was, of course, more limited than their standard menu, but still more varied than most sushi places during HH. My boyfriend ordered his standard California Roll, and Philly Roll, both of which were decent sized, and only $4.50/ea. I ordered the Las Vegas roll, which was $8.50, even during HH, which surprised me. Every other place I've been during regular hours the LV roll was around $9, so I didn't feel like I was getting much of a deal there.
I like a lot going on with my sushi. Lots of texture, and complimentary flavors, which is why I usually order a tempura'd roll. I was surprised to taste the Philly roll and find it really flavorful, with a bit of spice to it that I don't normally encounter. The LV roll was pretty standard for that roll. Tasted good, but didn't knock my socks off or anything. But, since it's one of my "old faithful's", I'd order it again here, just not at the regular price (around $13 when it's not HH).
After that, we were still hungry, so we decided to order 2 more rolls. The Diamondback roll was new to me, and seriously yummy. Definitely a new favorite. HH price was $8.50.
The other roll we ordered wasn't on the HH menu, and was $16.50(!), but it sounded interesting, and when I saw someone else's order of it, it looked amazing, so I splurged and tried it. It's called the "Hot Lips" roll. It's really spicy, with a lot going on. My boyfriend thought it was a "once in a while" roll only because of the spicy kick, but I didn't think it was too hot at all (but, I grew up here, so I'm used to spicier food). The roll is sliced and laid flat on the plate, and all of the pieces are topped with a mix of krab, jalapeno, and spicy mayo. AWESOME.
The staff was very friendly. We sat at the bar, so there was always a server around, and none of them hesitated to refill our water glasses when they saw us getting low. We got asked by at least 3 of the staff how our food was, and we just felt really taken care of.
The cost for dinner for edamame, and 5 different rolls (we're water drinkers, so no drink charges) was only $48. And, bear in mind, yes, it was happy hour, but one of the rolls we ordered was $16.50, so, we thought that was a very decent price for the quantity and quality of the food.
The place was loud, between the music and the customers, so I wouldn't go if you're looking for a nice, quiet dinner, but for a fun night out with good food, I'd recommend it in a heartbeat.
