| - Naked Fish's, you are still my favorite sushi place. While I'm a bit disappointed that you have remained closed for lunch, I still have yet to be disappointed by your food or service. This is an update, so make sure to read my original review for the recommendations, which I stand by to this day.
The live ama ebi (sweet shrimp) is quite an experience if you haven't tried it. They bring the little guy out and introduce you to him so he can wave good bye, then they bring him out with the tail raw and nigiri style, and the head deep fried. Sometimes people don't know how to handle that-- you just eat the whole thing. Trust me. It's been fried, so it'll be crunchy goodness all the way through.
Their specials rotate, so just check for what's on the chalk board, or ask your waiter. They're always more than happy to let you know.
I'm not a big fan of uni, but after taking a friend there, he had apparently been searching for a sushi restaurant that served uni, unsuccessfully, for like the last three years. NF not only has uni, but you get your choice of regular uni, or special uni which has been cleaned and shipped from Japan in salt water to preserve its freshness. Wanda recommended not to add anymore soy sauce as it would already be salty because of that. Buddy looked like he had died and gone to heaven.
