Came in w/ Mom and a coworker, and we sat at the counter. We've heard that select sushi rolls were 1/2 off during happy hour (3p-7p) Mondays through Fridays, but we saw nothing on the short menu that we wanted to try. I decided to order the BBQ bacon burger and a seaweed salad, while Mom and coworker ordered seaweed salads and a rainbow roll to share.
Have you ever tried a seaweed salad before? We have, and we've had them from many Japanese/sushi restaurants, but never have we seen them served w/ carrots and cucumbers before. Until now. We've also never seen them WITHOUT sesame seeds. Let's hope that this was a fluke, or else I'd question the quality of sushi that this kitchen produces. Needless to say, the seaweed salads weren't good- I took one bite and decided to pass on the salad and waited for my burger to arrive. The other two removed the non-authentic items and ate the seaweed, even though they also didn't particularly care for them. The rainbow sushi that came after looked very dry, so I didn't even sample it. Mom and coworker both remarked that it was tasteless and dry.
Thank goodness that the burger entree was delicious! I ordered it with BBQ sauce on the side, and to be honest, I didn't miss it. The patty was thick and juicy, and I appreciated the crispy thick-sliced applewood-smoked bacon. I don't know which I liked better, the burger or the seasoned wedge fries. These reminded me sour cream & onion potato chips- yum!
I may go back and give happy hour sushi another try, but I wouldn't mind having more of those fries!
