This is more of a teppanyaki-style restaurant than a sushi restaurant, in my opinion, but the name is what it is. Maybe that's the impression I got because of where I sat. When you walk into the restaurant, the grill tables are really the first thing you see. There are 4 tables seated around the grills. When I got there, my family was already seated, so I didn't have to wait to be seated. It was a Friday night, and the place was pretty packed, though there didn't appear to be a wait.
A few of the people in my party wanted teppanyaki-style dinner, while my brother and I wanted sushi. So we got the show and some of the grill items while still eating the sushi. First, I'll comment on the show.
The show was pretty good. Every teppanyaki place entertains a bit while cooking, and Got Sushi is no exception. Our cook was a lot of fun and broke out a few different items to assist with the entertainment. I particularly enjoyed the whistle he used while steam came out of the onion "volcano" to bring to mind a train. The cook was quite personable and kept us all entertained while cooking.
As a starter, we got little bowls of broth and a small iceberg lettuce-based salad. I'd recommend going dry with the salad and adding the ginger sauce they bring out instead of the standard salad dressing. They said the ginger sauce is good for fish, but it also goes great with the salad.
We all got to share in the rice, vegetables, and other non-meat items that he made. We had fried rice, but without the eggs because of sensitivities for a few of us. It wasn't quite as tasty as legit fried rice, but it was stll good (though the vegetables were clearly of the frozen variety). The actual vegetable dish was pretty solid--fresh vegetables fried up on the grill in front of us with some sesame seeds thrown on top as a finisher. And then there were some noodles cooked with bean sprouts. Our chef was quite liberal with the "Japanese ketchup" (i.e., soy sauce). Oh, and we all got a piece of shrimp out of it, but only after our chef entertained us a bit with the then-still connected to their tails shrimp.
My fellow diners had steak, salmon, and chicken as their main dishes. All of them were quite good and had large portions. The salmon especially seemed to be huge. You get your money's worth out of these dishes, for sure.
My brother and I shared 3 different rolls and 3 orders of nigiri. The Red Dragon roll and the Got 2 were equally delicious. The Red Dragon roll was not quite as spicy as we'd have liked, but the flavoring was excellent. The Got 2 has thinly-sliced lemon on top of it, and the bitterness adds just the right extra flavor to the roll to really make it work. We also had the Rainbow roll, and it was a solid choice. The salmon and tuna nigiri were both fresh and delicious. Both seemed to have rather large cuts of fish, so that made me happy.
I especially appreciated the accommodating nature of the service. We all have various food allergies with which to contend, and they did their best to accommodate all of them. They were attentive and made sure to assist with avoiding those items we needed to avoid.
While I really appreciated the service and enjoyed the food, this just didn't seem to go beyond 3 stars for me. I am happy to come back at some point in the future, but it wasn't something fantastic to me.
