My first time at Sushi Eye was for a book club meeting for Happy Hour back in July. I mostly ordered cocktails and a couple of appie specials, which were okay but I wanted to go back and eat a full meal before I reviewed the place.
I stopped in for lunch on a Friday recently and was very surprised to see that between 12 and 1pm, there was NO ONE ELSE at the sushi bar and only two tables taken. Never a good sign.
The service was friendly and attentive, but what else did she have to do?
Since a lunch sashimi combo would've cost me $18 ($3-6 higher than most other sushi places for lunch), I opted for an Atkins roll ($9; pretty good; never had a roll sans rice before) and a $10 lunch combo with yellowtail sashimi (fine) and some Japanese dumplings (which came fried, yuck...would've liked to have a steamed option...and the sauce was tasteless). The miso soup and small salad was included and they were pretty much like all the other places.
Overall, I left wishing I had stopped at RA or Sushi Ken for a less expensive, more satisfying lunch special.
