  • On my way to work this morning I drove past Biggu Sushi and their logo/sign immediately caught my eye. That was it, tonight I was going to pick-up sushi on my way back. First impression, the parking situation isn't very convenient. There's a very small lot behind the strip plaza (maybe five parking spots) and street parking along Florence Avenue which is usually pay-to-park however it is free in the evenings. When I reached the restaurant I was surprised to see not a single person in the small dining room. For a Friday night at 7pm this was not a good sign. I had a look at the take-out options while the hostess stood over me. Upon enquiring, I learned their sushi combos do not include salad/miso soup as usual with sushi take-outs I've been to in the past. Only their bento boxes included it. The hostess suggested the sushi burrito (available with spicy salmon, spicy tuna, or the Biggu special which includes various fillings). The thought of a sushi burrito (a pretty simple concept I've never seen elsewhere) was enticing and I settled on the half-size spicy salmon for $7.50 plus tax. Thinking back, I should have taken the full-sized one as I'm feeling hungry as I write this about 2.5 hours later. For those who can't picture it, just imagine a burrito using sushi ingredients and nori (seaweed) instead of a tortilla. Upon sitting down to my burrito I was surprised to see the spicy salmon is not the standard pre-made chopped salmon with spicy mayo but rather actual pieces of sashimi salmon. Very good so far! Also in the burrito were crab salad (thin pieces in a creamy sauce), cucumber, avocado, crispy tempura flakes, tobiko caviar, and lettuce (?!). While the execution was good, the lettuce was brownish and lettuce shouldn't have been part of any type of sushi in my opinion. Tasty-wise, it was average. While the spicy salmon was there, I much prefer the chopped version mixed with the spicy mayo. Overall, for the money I paid I feel I got what I was expecting however in future I think I'll stick to traditional sushi options. My only suggestion is that the sushi combos come with salad and miso soup. Even if they raise the price another $1 it'll be worth it as it's something most people expect when they order sushi.
