| - I'll start off with the positive... I REALLY appreciated how Yummy (at least on paper) attempts to create creative, tasty rolls you may not find at other places,(their menu has rolls boasting lobster...scallops, hot sauced crab!.. with a playful spin on names..."that's what she say"..."tastes like exgirlfriend"..etc..
Unfortunately the talk didn't measure up to the walk. We started with the gyoza (oddly sold as "5"...a strange number for a couple wishing to share)..small and heavily fried, is suspect any flavor they once had would have survived better if treated with less oil. In fairness, the server DID give us an extra free of charge when they sensed the irony...As an attempt to try the breadth of experience at this new place for us, we ordered 4 distinctly different rolls. Reading the menu, one has visions of overflowing crab, succulent lobster, crunchy tempura, fresh avocado, etc....yet once the rolls hit the table, we noticed a trend...ALL the rolls had the same fast food "krab salad"...when we asked the server where the scallops were on one roll for example, the chef replied "it's in there!'...soon their mantra to ALL the rolls...tempura shrimp?.."it's in there!!"....spicy lump crab?.."it's in there!!"....lobster?..."it's in there!!"....ok, I get it! At least they are efficient! If you like the wool pulled over your eyes and the same old thing roll after roll, there is plenty of parking in the strip mall....if you want creative sushi, there are other places in town.
