| - I'm always downtown and for quite some time, a good majority of regular patrons have been wanting a sushi spot to finally venture. Sad to say, Bocho did not leave a good impression.
I had been looking forward to trying this ever since rumors began to surface of a sushi restaurant opening downtown. I've heard of mixed reviews from friends since it's opening so rather than take others words for it, finally decided to check it out.
The sushi bar downstairs if basic and reminds me of something you may find in Los Angeles or New York where space is at premium. It is very well lit as you walk in and are greated by the chefs. There is also an upstairs dining area that is a bit more spacious and can accommodate larger groups and there is also a private room available, the cocktail bar is also located upstairs.
As we sat down, our server greeted us quickly and asked if we'd like drinks. Water and a beer were ordered and brought to the table promptly followed by complimentary edamame. Quite a few things were ordered off the menu and I can say that the fish was very fresh, the flavors of the sauces and condiments used for rolls were very tasty, no complaints there. The one major thing I had an issue with and anyone who loves sushi should have an issue with is hard, dense, undercooked rice. I mean, you're a sushi restaurant and you use rice all day long. How could your one major ingredient be under par, especially since it is the base for all of your dishes. Again, the fish was fresh and delicious but you can't have a good sushi restaurant if you can't produce good rice!
Our bill was split in 3 which our server did not mind doing so but she was not very attentive when it came to keeping my water glass full and checking to make sure things were going okay. 3 people ordered separate orders and some of them were mixed together (sushi). When we asked our server to clarify what was what, she got very flustered and said she did not know how to differentiate the rolls. Also, the table next to us had a big group and they asked our server to take a picture of them which of course would've not bothered me if she had not practically climbed on our table to take a picture of them, not even excusing herself as we were still finishing up our meal, very unprofessional.
So overall, will I go back??? Maybe, possibly. If they can cook their rice properly.
