| - To be blunt: as far as my knowledge of sushi goes, I know about as much as Jon Snow. I have had it on several occasions but can never remember what I ordered or differentiate between items. Lucky for me, Chad 'The Sushi Guru' S. accompanied me on my first visit to Sushi Koma.
SK is nestled in a shopping plaza right next to Cafe Darak and some hookah joint. After entering we were immediately greeted by several of the sushi chefs and waitresses. It was this very moment when I realized how small the restaurant was. We took two seats at the sushi bar and had our drink order taken and brought to us promptly along with a side of wasabi and ginger.
Chad recommended we both go for the All You Can Eat special and that's just what we did. It was hard to keep track of all the different things he was ordering, so I gave the menu a quick glance over and went for some items that had ingredients I could recognize such as beef, teriyaki, or spicy tuna.
All in all, together we ordered the Tuna Tostada appetizer, spicy tuna sushi, teriyaki beef roll, 3-10 Roll, D-A Roll, sashimi roll, dynamite appetizer, the deep fried oyster, and green tea mochi. There may have been one or two other items I neglected to note that Chad ordered, but you'll have to excuse my memory as it was foggied by the sushi koma I experienced after dinner.
The highlights for me were the D-A Roll and the 3-10 roll. I've learned that any kind of baked sushi topped with yum yum or eel sauce is right up my alley. I was also pleased to note that they do not skimp on the proteins in terms of the content of each piece of sushi. I have been to places where the sushi mostly just consists of rice and a little smidgen of crab, shrimp, or what have you.
For $26 Sushi Koma is as good a place as any to gloriously stuff your face with premium sushi.
