| - Tokyo Sushi House is a decent, solid all-you-can-eat sushi place. It stands out for its creative, interesting rolls and competitive pricing - at $15 for lunch - so if you're more into modern-style sushi and/or a bargain sushi session, this is the place to go. The appetizer entrees are pretty good too. Everything else about the place is just about standard (or a bit less), but put it in perspective of the great AYCE value.
Highlights were the unagi nigiri, and the Dragon and Volcano rolls. The rolls are creative and well-made, without excesses of sauce and seasoning; you can order half-rolls too, which let us try a lot of the menu! Definitely a good place for rolls.
The unagi is particularly good if you prefer the sauce a little less sweet. Besides the unagi and hamachi, the rest of the nigiri was disappointing; the fish was so-so, and the rice was cloyingly dense. I prefer nigiri over rolls so that was unfortunate; if you require a variety of good nigiri, you may be disappointed, but it's also a matter of preference here, or maybe a bad day/selection.
The service was a bit lackluster, though sufficient. The waitress was spotty considering we were the only party for majority of our stay, and kept making awkward placements with the dishes. The chefs were better - attentive, and skilled, though difficult to engage with any depth. As a whole, staff interactions were pretty awkward, and I'm hesitant to visit on the same shift to have to go through that again.
I will be back, though, to give the place a second chance on the misses, and to try more of the great, unique rolls on such a good bargain.
