| - Really Sakana? I haven't written a review about you yet? How could I not?
Well, no time like the present.
My family has been frequenting this find establishment for some time now. Back when it use to be half its current size and we dreamed of the day when the blockbuster next door would follow suit and shut its doors.
Well, they did, and Sakanas expanded.
There is ALWAYS a line at the front door right before opening. But don't be turned off, this is no two hour wait, they ALWAYS open on time, and there is ALWAYS room.
You will be promptly greeted, sushi bar or table?, and then quickly sat. Your server will be friendly and prompt. My husband loves the iced green tea, my parents always get some Kirin and sake. Now you get a discounted appetizer with those beers, may I suggest the jalapeno boats with a sweet dipping sauce, so yum.
Your regular menu will have some entrees, some sushi, some salads.... Haven't had any of the entrees, but the miso soup and their house salad are both excellent.
Now lets get on to what we are here for. Sushi.
As you walk in next to the hostess stand there will be three of their specials out on display. They all look good, and guess what, they all are. Get them, get them all.
You will also notice the white board behind the sushi bar.
The sushi bar filled with lively talented sushi chefs. Making delicious rolls, cracking jokes, and maybe taking a shot from time to time. One most likely purchased by one of the guests at the bar, they share a round, a toast, hey we are all friends here!
Back to that board. There's a list of sashimi, as well as some rolls. Your biggest challenge of the night will be narrowing down what to order. Again, they all sound great, and they all are.
They do a great job with the simple and an equally great job with the more complex. They aren't all pop and sparkle like some of those other sushi places, where you can order that super duper tri color are those pop rocks, is that deep fried, holy cream cheese rolls. I mean, you can get that, and it will be good, a flavor explosion if you will. However you can also get a nice sliced piece of fresh delicous fish, with some fresh wasabi root. And you know what, the price is fair.
Your get quality here.
And say hi to Yoshi. She's the manager, the one with the big smile. She will stop by, and she will be warm, and funny. All the staff is.
