| - Sushi + karaoke + underwater decor = what's not to love?!
In addition to private karaoke studios, raised booths, light-up tables, and the sushi bar are all available, and there's also a beer pong area if you're into that sort of thing. Menu has a variety of raw items, cooked items, and a $45 omakase option.
ICE CREAM BEER: No, it's not a beer float, more like a Sapporo beer slushie. The beer foam is frozen on top of a large glass. Fun and refreshing, even if you're not usually a beer fan.
GARLIC POTATOES: A little underwhelmed, but well-executed. Seemed to be missing the garlic sauce, just topped with some chopped herbs. Simple, crispy.
CRAB JALAPENO POPPERS: Tasty! It's a slightly-healthier version of your favorite bar snack. Not spicy, for all you wimps out there.
SASHIMI PLATTER: $18 plate of 8 types of sashimi, with marinated beef and chopped fish, served with miso soup and rice. Filling portion for one or easily shared and split with a roll, like we did. Fresh, flavorful, and good variety. I especially liked the salmon belly, black pepper seared tuna, and the hamachi wrapped with red onion.
BEND IT LIKE BECKHAM ROLL: I gotta love a place with fun names for their rolls! 5 types of fish with eel and ponzu sauce. Despite the abundance of ingredients, flavor seemed to be missing something. Would try more rolls here, though.
SUZUYA GREEN TEA CAKE: All desserts are fresh daily from Suzuya, and the green tea cake is definitely one of their best offerings. Got ours comped to go, which was a nice treat!
In addition to the fresh fish and flavors, I really dig the ambiance and service: management, bar staff, and servers all made a point of interacting with us and being on top of dish recommendations. All dishes are plated beautifully, too. Glad we live close by, would love to see them add more special rolls to the menu.
