Went to the rock last weekend on Sat with kids and wife. My entire family is into food and all my kids eat sushi. 15,14 and 11. The kids all know thier way around a sushi menu.
We had an event at the Q early and had a 5pm reservation which was not a problem since we were the first there.
I could tell the waitress was "put out" when she saw the kids and it was reflected in her demeanor. She was not mean or inattentive just kind of stand off ish. We like to talk about the menu and the food and always ask what the staff likes. She wanted none of that chit chat and even failed to mention the special rolls they had until after it became quite apparent that this was probably going to be her biggest tab of the night.
She opened up a bit when I ordered a bottle of wine and three aps.
We had the Tuna Poke, Jalapeno yellowtail and White tuna sashimi.
The poke was great tasting but drowned just a bit too much in the sauce. It is so good there is no need to have that much sauce in the martini glass it was served in.
The jal tuna was supposed to be a signture bt was little more than thinly sliced tuna with thin sliced jals on it. The tuna was fresh and awsome with the nice spice of fresh jals on it but lacked in presentation.
The sashimi was gobbled by my 11 year old but I did pry a piece from him. Kinda small portion but very good fish.
For the meal we had the Geisha and cobra rolls with 1 20 oz ribeye and 8 oz filet.
The rolls were the highlight. The cobra was something new for me and is now my favorite. Plenty of flavor here without lots of over the top seaweed tastes. Not sure what other reviewers ordered but these were very large rolls artfully done with fresh ingredients. The rolls would fill us so that most of the rest of the meal we brought home.
Steaks were just slightly above average and way overpriced. Both could have benefited from seasoning. I blame myself for not sticking to fish in a sushi place DUH.
Had the waitress not judged us and the steaks been a tad better this could have gone to a four star. Oh and the waitress could have gotten a double tip. (she still got taken care of though).
