| - I didn't know what to expect coming to Pumi's in Henderson. One thing I was told was that Asian food is best on the West side of the strip near Spring Mountain, and boy does that rule still apply!
One thing that I disliked about Pumi was that for the All You Can Eat Sushi, you are NOT allowed to order "Half-Orders." I was a little sad hearing that because I love trying many different dishes to write a thorough review without spending a fortune!
With 20+ people in a party, it is very understandable for the food to arrive longer than expected. However, I don't think it is acceptable to make a customer wait over an hour for a simple salmon skin salad, which I still never got!
I didn't have a good experience here and honestly, not being biased due to the long wait, the sushi quality was not the greatest either. One of the MOST IMPORTANT aspects of sushi is the rice! The rice cannot be overcooked or undercooked. It is the rice that makes the sushi roll stay intact and holds all the marvelous ingredients together. Each piece of my roll fell apart.
Tiger Roll: Shrimp Tempura roll topped with spicy tuna and drizzled with unagi (eel) sauce. My opinion on this roll (meh i've had better) Spicy tuna was good, flavorful with a kick of spice. Shrimp tempura however, you can definitely tell it was not a fresh piece of fried goodness, instead it was cold and the tempura crust was a bit stale and not crunchy. That bite just ruined it for me.
I also got to try the dynamite roll which a friend ordered. That was was surprisingly good! A california roll topped with a seafood mix and baked.
My suggestion here is if you are planning on ordering two or more rolls of sushi, it is much more cost effective to get the "All You Can Eat" instead of paying $15 per roll.
Enjoy! =)
