| - This is my neighborhood go-to Sushi place. Having lived in Japan, I love good sushi and yet I can't always afford it in town. I can afford to go here on occasion, and I believe you get slightly better than what you pay for. This isn't the place for that special once a year sushi night out. This is the place to go if you can't afford the upscale sushi that you would prefer, but have high enough standards that you won't stoop so low as to eat the supermarket sushi at Fry's. This is also a fantastic place to take kids, whether it's just to introduce them to sushi or if they are savvy enough to choose sushi over Chick-Fil-A
One thing I really like about the place is their "Happy Hour" pricing all day long. These particular specials allow you to order two variety or rolls in one, for example my kids love the California roll/Spicy Tuna Roll combo. The get 4 of each, which is plenty for my kids and it then allows me to select my own specialty roll, or some other roll that I want them to try. This is is great place to experiment for the uninitiated.
You get miso soup, salad and a cool free dessert of whipped cream, oranges and Pocky sticks (also a hit with the kids).
You're not going to get the authentic Japanese experience complete with the shouts of "Irashaimasen!" when you walk in, but it's authentic enough for what they charge.
Side note: I once accidentally left my ID here while eating alone. Must have fallen out of my wallet when I paid. Couldn't find it anywhere. Weeks later, I went back in and the waitress recognized me and brought it to me. THAT. WAS. AWESOME!
(But I also wondered why no one took the initiative to mail it to me. What if I never went back?)
