Everyone who knows me and my sushi needs knows that I'm loyal to one sushi place. So when some friends insisted we try En Sushi in the bourgeois hills of Anthem, my initial response was, "Pshh... why bother?"
This place is unassuming and could easily be missed. It's small and cozy with chic and modern decor. There is a lot on the menu but everything, and I mean everything we tried was delicious from the corn potato to Hamachi Kama.
I raised my eyebrow at some of the prices of rolls like the $18 Anthem Roll, but boy oh boy was it worth every penny! Every roll was huge and beautifully presented. The fish was fresh, the sauces were delectable, and there wasn't an overwhelming amount of rice.
The corn potato was a cute (for lack of a better word) and tasty appetizer. We also had the baked green mussels. The crab layer kind of masked the green mussel flavor but they were delicious nonetheless.
The waiter found out it was me and my husband's first visit there and they generously gave the whole party free strawberry ice cream! I had already planned on raving about this place on Yelp and this was icing on the cake.
My only complaint is that it's quite a drive from our side of town but its worth every mile. So, the moral of this review is don't be afraid to venture out of your sushi comfort zone. You may be pleasantly surprised!
