PAY TO PLAY?
Summer 08 I spent a weekend at the resort to hang out at their pool and walk around downtown sampling the new businesses. I am not into sushi so I have nothing to compare this place to. I will say this, they excel at turning a $50 tab into a $150 tab. Those little plates stack up fast!!!
Your hunger never seems to feel satisfied and the owner is quick to suggest items from the conveyor belt. So you just kind of keep sampling the things passing right in front of you without considering the consequences. I honestly went back the very next night to eat here just to analyse what happened the previous night. Why my tab was $150 for so little sustenance.
Same thing almost happened. Super friendly greeting, remembered my name. I had exhausted the import beer selection the night before so I started on their exotic drink menu. A couple of blue Hawaiians later and we began plucking plates off the conveyor like they were giving them away!!!
I saw where this was heading and decided cash out to the tune of $70 for a couple of fu-fu drinks and some snack size portions of white rice and fish. Sushi Eye is a fun place to eat but if you are new to the "sushi on a conveyor belt" game you are more likely to lose your appetite by paying the bill than by eating the food.
