| - Gal's Sushi is located at the right beside the hilton suites clocktower. The area has really developed as I never really went behind the plaza. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw a abundance of blooming restaurants. I was referred to Gal's Sushi from a friend's glowing review and decided to try it.
Upon entering the restaurant, you'll notice that it is usually packed. Don't come at a good hour and expect to wait.
Gal's Sushi is a Japanese/Korean restaurant so expect two sides to the menu, one Japanese and one Korean. In my opinion there wasn't that big of a difference. Really... this is a korean restaurant. If you look at the menu you'll notice duplicates in the japanese section from the korean section.
I order the sushi/sashimi everytime I come here. The fish selection is excellent. I usually get the "choice" box's because they come with better fish, unlike their other salmon filled boxes. The choice sets come with Uni (sea urchin), tuna, hamachi (yellowtail), ahi hamachi, white tuna, mackerel, snapper, and sweet shrimp. OMG the ahi hamachi is AMAZING!
The rolls however, are below par. I compare them to food court quality. They are usually filled loosely and often with ingredients that have been made well before ordering it (ie. don't expect your dynamite roll to be crunchy... the tempura was made hours before). The rice is also not flavoured properly. It's pretty much korean/japanese rice, but you can't really taste the sugar/rice vinegar mixture that you're supposed to have with it.
I also had the gyoza, and was very disappointing. The dough for the dumpling was really really thick (think bun, not dumpling) and didn't really compliment the texture of the dumpling. It was like eating a tiny thin breaded bun.
The main courses were hit and miss. One of the times I've had the spicy seafood soup on the japanese side. When it actually came out, I noticed that there was only one mussel, a tiny piece of cuttlefish, and one shrimp. Really... RIP OFF.
The korean side white fish spicy soup is much better. Lots of stuff in it. However, I noticed that the soup base was pretty much the same thing. They probably just scoop in some ingredients, add some broth and then boil it up quickly.
The bim bim bop was actually pretty good as well. Not the best I've ever had, but again, kinda like what you would expect at a food court.
All in all, if I were to recommend this place to someone I would say to go only for the sushi and sashimi. For the price that they're offering it you can't really go wrong. Perfect for lunch! Get some sake too!
