| - I can comment only on the sushi, because that's what I get (almost) every Tuesday. Why Tuesday? Glad you asked. On Tuesdays, all nigiri sushi and sashimi are $1 a piece. That's a nice discount when some nigiri pieces are regularly priced at $2 and $2.50.
Of course, cheap sushi isn't a good deal unless it's good sushi - and, as other reviewers have testified, this IS good stuff. The chef and co-owner, Tony (a friendly guy, originally from Malaysia), knows what he's doing. He used to work in (and own?) a NYC Japanese restaurant. He cuts generous slices, and (as any pro should do) makes sure that what you're consuming is clean, fresh-smelling, appealing, and of excellent quality. The rice (not too firm; not too loose), soy sauce, and pickled ginger (white; no artificial coloring) is all prepared in-house.
I've been eating sushi since the early '80s (I started in L.A.), and this is comparable to, or better than, what I've had elsewhere. The selection is reasonably broad for an eatery of this size and for the traffic it has. All of the most popular sushi/sashimi is on the menu - and there is an extensive list of rolls.
If you're not far from the location, and crave some rockin' sushi, get on over there.
