| - Meh is right, somehow dissapointed even though I was only expecting a cheap/quick sushi place. Was hoping this would be a convenient sushi spot on workdays, but I think I'll pass for the other options in the neighborhood. The concept is a bit weak as well, once I realized that pretty much ANY sushi spot will make your own roll if you want, they just usually provide better options they know taste good together...
Looks like they hired kids from the bagel sandwhich shop and McDonald's next door in the Overstreet Mall. Trying to have someone who knows nothing about sushi guide folks through making some of their first self-made rolls didn't seem to be turning out so great. I saw many others, including myself get a little confused on the process.
The rolls end up being about 85% rice, which really masks any flavor that might try to come through. I couldn't tell much different between my two rolls even though they were completely different ingredients.
Price was more than I would have thought, and not very competitive for cheapo sushi ($15 for two rolls / edamame).
!! Reason for one not two stars!! I ordered a side of edamame, which they have right by the register and was already in a basket above hot water. I didn't think much of it untill I saw that they were basically heating, and reheating, the same bunch of edamame over and over. The lady behind me got my heated/re-heated edamame, and who knows who else had my batch heated and how long ago it was before I arrived. They tasted about how anything does when it goes in and out of hot water for long periods of time....
Definietely other better spots within a block or so of here..
