Decided to try Hiro Sushi because of the reviews as it is very difficult to find a good sushi restaurant in the valley. With my husband being half Japanese, lived in Japan & just having visited Tokyo last May for 2 weeks - it takes a lot to win over our palates.
First, this not your typical modern sushi restaurant which translates to social meeting place/lounge for people that want mega rolls with different condiments splattered all over them. They have some, but if that is what you think sushi is - head to Sapporo or RA.
Second, nothing against non-Japanese sushi chefs as they can be quite talented - but something about having Japanese sushi chefs creating your food that brings some authenticity to the whole experience.
Third, the fish was fresh and was served in good portions. Its not about bigger is better - quality is what you pay for when it comes to sashimi or nigiri.
Looked over the entree menu - typical mix of tempura, teriyaki & katsu dishes - nothing real special.
Will definitely go back.
