| - Alright, so here's the thing: I like to drink. It's something I do well, and I figure that anything you can do well should be done often. With that being said, I do not take it lightly when a restaurant names itself after an alcoholic beverage (we'll get to Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville later).
That being said, it was my brother of all people who introduced me to Sake Bombers. He said to me "Las Vegas rolls, chicken wings and a sake bomber will do you just right." He wasn't lying.
The problem that people may have with me reviewing a sushi bar is that I don't eat seafood. I'm allergic to a lot of it. So you may be thinking "Why in the shit am I reading this, you twit?" Well, because I'm not allergic to alcohol or appetizers, two things that Sake Bombers does well.
The chicken wings they serve have an Asian influence and a spice to them, though I wouldn't call them spicy. They're a dry rub, not sauced, and they're swear-to-god delicious. Now, I don't eat sushi, but I'm told by all that accompanied us that the Las Vegas roll, with jalapeno in it, and the White Castle roll, with cream cheese and horseradish, are delicious alternatives to the more standard fare.
As far as the alcohol goes, during happy hour you can get warm sake for $1, a full bomber set for $5, and a Kirin or other Japanese beer for $4. They have a variety of other cocktails and such, so every type of drinker will be pleased.
The mood is right, tv's and music playing, the crowd is mixed between college-types and after-work specials, and the service is good. If you don't go to Sake Bombers, I'll fight you.
