| - This place is odd. Business-wise, they need to do some major overhauling- location is poor, setup is odd, service is lackluster, and that damn sign outside is tacky as hell. (EDIT: they have since removed it, hallelujah!)
Which is a shame, because this place is great: menu is extensive, sushi is fresh and tasty, and even without the sake special it's well-priced and good value.
Now for the food:
CRAZY EEL ROLL- phenomenal. Giant portion, eel is perfectly cooked, ingredients all work well together. $11, good price for what you receive. Favorite of the night.
PINK ROLL- also good, tons of fresh tuna and salmon, both of which are super fresh and cut thick. Also well priced, think it was a $8-9 roll.
SPIDER ROLL- good presentation, artfully arranged on plate. The crab tasted the slightest bit off, though I blame the batter not the freshness of the fish itself. BF really enjoyed this one.
ALASKA ROLL- This is sushi comfort food to me, salmon and cream cheese are perfect together. Sad they didn't have green onions to add. Surprised they don't keep it in the kitchen for other dishes, and confused because the picture shows the roll topped with shredded onion.
LASAGNA ROLL- not for us, at all. I'm not a fan of baked rolls, but have heard others rave about this one and never tried it. Warm cream cheese is just not my thing, wish we would have just sent this back and had it taken off our check. Did not like at all.
Service was decent and prices are good value- fresh and tasty sushi with great prices. There are only 2 rolls over $11. BF and I spent $60 on the above, plus miso soups for both of us and one free carafe of sake, and had plenty of leftovers.
