| - I don't understand why the average rating for Ra is 2 1/2 stars!
Ok, so, the food isn't "the best" (I've had sushi in San Francisco, Honolulu, Manhattan, Seattle, L.A., San Diego, Miami, Boston, basically anywhere where you expect great fresh sushi)
That being said, it's good for the value. Really "great" sushi is expensive! Anybody expecting that should not come to Ra, and/or give it a bad review because of that.
People come to Ra for the GREAT Happy Hour and the fun/young/hip atmosphere. I give all that 4 stars.
One of the BEST tofu apps I've EVER had.
(if you do try that app, make sure to ask for lots of the little crunchies on top, and extra eel sauce on the side, those are the best parts, and sometimes they put too little)
The tofu is cooked firm on the outside and creamy on the inside, so good!
The veg tempura is good too, and at about $3 appiece, you CAN'T beat it!
Still the BEST Vegas rolls I've had anywhere!
I wouldn't really come here off of Happy Hour, but that is because I am broke. However I would really like to try some of the menu items I've never had. (I've had regular menu items, and they were good too)
The patio is nice, especially with the great weather we have here, but I wish they had a smoking patio. One thing that I've read on other reviews that is absolutely true = you will want to sit on the patio, unless you don't want to hear your friends, since the music is WAY too loud inside. (but it's sometimes loud outside too!) That would be cool for a Fri/Sat late night, but they blast the music even on weekdays starting at the 3 o'clock Happy Hour!
I've read some knocks on the waitresses. I've never really had a bad experience with them. Ra does it right like every bar/restaurant should do and hires young attractive women. They've always been really nice and friendly too.
