| - I was craving sushi and had some time to kill between work and a concert at the performing arts center, so I popped in. Despite it being a Friday evening in Scottsdale, and me being dressed in my nurse scrubs, I didn't feel any snooty vibes, which is what I stereotypically expected.
The dining room is calming and zen. And like I said, being in scrubs (and alone!), I was treated kindly and seated in the middle of the dining room (after being asked if I wanted to sit at the sushi bar).
Happy hour is from 3-7pm, with half price cocktail and an assortment of half price apps, sushi etc. I had the seaweed salad (a little vinegar-y for my taste, but a good-sized portion), a "special roll" whose name I forgot, it had salmon, tuna, yellowtail and avocado wrapped in cucumber, served with ponzu sauce (only five pieces tho, for $13), a spicy salmon roll (good), and since I was still hungry (nurses don't have time for lunch!), I had two pcs of tuna nigiri and two of tamago, for something sweet.
I washed it all down with a "Kiwi Collins" from the cocktail menu, and it was great. However, when the server came by to ask if I wanted a second one, and I declined, she took my glass away before I noticed!
Overall, a nice, not too pricy ($37 at happy hour) dinner. I wasn't rushed, the food was good. I'd go back.
