| - I am alright with Sakana Grill. If it is late, and we are in Chinatown, or looking for a place to eat before hitting up a movie or something at Eau Claire, I am definitely willing to eat here, although it is by no means a mindblowing experience.
Service is generally pretty friendly and awesome here, although I have experienced a server who reminds me of Mel from Flight of the Conchords here which freaks me out a little bit. But I digress.
Something I do like about Sakana, is that they don't have just your typical cucumber maki or avocado rolls here as options for vegetarians. They also have a delightful asparagus and avocado roll here that I really enjoy, as well as a sundried tomato roll. None of my friends really enjoy this roll for some reason, so I rarely order it if I'm sharing, but I think it's pretty cool that they have this as an option.
Additionally, they usually have specials on Japanese beers, which I don't particularily enjoy myself but my friends love. I usually just fill up on the cheap genmaicha.
I see here that someone commented on the entertainment/magicians. Yes, they are still there, but this is actually something that really makes me uncomfortable about dining in at Sakana. It is quite awkward when you are trying to have a conversation, and you don't want to turn away the endearing magician lady, but also don't really want to pretend to be entertained. Also, the first time this happened to us my friends and I just stared across the table at each other, and didn't know if this lady was expecting to be tipped, or what have you. Uncomfortable.
But decent food if you are in the area and nothing else is open.
