| - I first learned about Xtreme Sushi from a Groupon offering and bought 2 coupons.
The first time we went, we sat outside. Several of us ordered the "All You Can Eat Sushi". It should be called "All You Can Eat Rice" since the fish was barley visible. The fish was sliced so thin that you could see right through it, and the chunks of rice where big and tasteless.
The service was adequate, but I had the feeling that the server did not want to be there. To top it off, we couldn't use the Groupon for the "All You Can Eat".
There were two reasons for going a second time. First, I had a Groupon to use and second, I figured if I ordered a la carte, the food was bound to better. This time we sat at the sushi bar and ordered a salad and a cut roll. The food was OK and since it was NOT All You Can Eat, there was actually fish included!
The Sushi Chef was cooking something in a toaster oven and the smell was so bad I had to change my seat, trying to get away from it. The Hip Hop music was loud and annoying. The green tea tasted more like dirty water. We had to ask for the wasabi and ginger and our server brought one very tiny serving for the 2 of us. Really?
Oh, and I did I mention the menus, OMG they were so dirty and sticky that the pages stuck together. I'm sure they have not been wiped off, EVER.
I developed a terrible headache from the horribly loud music and obnoxious smells coming from behind the sushi bar and couldn't wait to get out of there.
I learned two very important lessons from my experience at Xtreme Sushi & Sterling Steakhouse. First, never buy a Groupon before checking reviews on Yelp. Second, even if they were giving it away, it was not worth a second trip just to use a coupon.
