| - Nothing irks me more than misrepresented menu items. WHY do sushi restaurants note "crab" as an ingredient in the roll when no crab whatsoever is in the roll? While this may not be unique to Bocho, the charge for "real" crab may be. At first the less-than-knowledgeable waitress stated that the "upcharge" would be $5 per piece, she then returned with an updated amount...$40 for the roll. Holy Crab, Batman! So, a roll that supposedly has "crab" in it is $12 on the menu but when you ask for "real" crab (instead of the ocean's version of a hot dog, aka, imitation crab meat or surimi), it jumps to $52? That better be some DAMN GOOD CRAB MEAT!!!!
We had the Pink Lady roll and that was fine, nothing too special. We also had the Tempura Shrimp...same thing, it was fine...same as you can get anywhere. We ordered a roll that had crispy garlic pieces on top (not noted on the menu, BTW) and it was absolutely disgusting! Of course, we sent it right back and then at the end of the meal, the waitress informed us that it was "taken off the bill." Gee, thanks...um, we sent it back, so I would not have expected to have to pay for it.
Almost forgot to mention, we were mildly pressured to eat at the sushi bar downstairs and had to reiterate twice to the hostess that we preferred to sit upstairs. Kind of strange. Choosing this place for a special occasion was a mistake...live and learn, right?
If anyone knows of a Sushi restaurant in the Las Vegas area that DOES NOT include "surimi" in their rolls...please let me know! Thanks.
