We had a successful apartment-hunting day so we set out for a late lunch celebration. We strolled by Red Sushi and figured, why not? Overall, we enjoyed our time. Service was great and I liked the feel of the place. The weird thing was that all of the staff/chefs hung around one area, chatting, but I think they were just getting ready for the dinner rush.
The edamame wasn't cooked enough, I think -- it was very hard to open the pods!
I got the sundried tomato & asparagus roll and the mushroom tempura roll. I loved the IDEA of the sundried tomato roll, but it was incredibly dry. It could use a sauce or maybe cream cheese ? The mushroom roll was good, though. Derek enjoyed both of his rolls: peking & the salmon skin. He said the mango on the peking paired quite well with the other flavors.
Then we decided to get lemon cheesecake. Erm, not good. I could barely taste the lemon! The cheesecake itself had a good texture and taste overall, but then was ruined when my mouth got to the crust. It was very dry and tasteless. Meh. Maybe a bad day.
I'd love to go back and try again, but I do hope they change up that sundried tomato roll.
