| - Location is nice if you live or go to school at ASU, otherwise it is a bit of a pain to get to with traffic.
Location itself is super sleek and clean. Big space with plenty of seating to chose from.
However, it goes down hill from there. I got the half greens and half brown rice. They set the greens off separately to mix, which is nice. I got 3 scoops with the large , which was nice, and all the normal options were there (salmon, tuna, spicy tuna, scallops, etc). Next was the sauce, and this is where things went down.
I asked the employee which one he recommended between the two spicy. He said mix both, so I went with it. He added the sauce and mixed them (albeit not well since the fish all ended up on the bottom).
Next were the toppings. I went with a good variety, but the first thing I noticed was how haphazard they threw it in my plate. One of the things I like the most about these bowls is how meticulous they are. Each is a work of art, slowly crafted to satiate. There was a lot behind me, but only a few people, and all I wanted was a few extra seconds to be sure my cucumbers were not strewn about.
I go to check out, and the price was comparable to most other places. They didn't offer me any of the macaroons when I checked out, and I didn't even notice they were there until after.
I sit down to eat, and the sauce was just overpowering everything. The sesame seeds tasted odd, the brown rice was a bit hard, and the overall presentation was not up to snuff. The leftover oil was just too much to bare looking at my empty plate.
The fish, when not drenched in sauce, was of good quality. And honestly that saved this review.
Knowing me, I'll head back again one day, ask for super easy sauce, only greens, and see if it is any better.
