| - I would have given Cowfish 5 stars, but the wait was almost unbearable! A friend of mine had asked to go to Cowfish for her birthday. We tried going once before, but the wait was so long we ended up turning in our buzzer and eating else where. This was a Tuesday evening and yet it was still packed! I didn't make reservations because I thought with it being a week day the wait would not be as long......epic fail! We were told the wait would be any where between an hour and an hour and a half! We actually ended up waiting and hour......so my suggestion is to MAKE reservations!
Once we got in, the electric atmosphere quickly helps you forget about the long wait. If it's just you and a date, you can always ask to be let in and sit at the bar, but for that extra special feeling, I would suggest getting a table. My date and I were seated at a small cramped table in the corner. Our waiter Mike was very pleasant and efficient. I ordered the Bagel roll, and an appetizer of Chicken Satay. The bagel roll is great fro those who can only take so much sushi. It's lightly cooked salmon, rice, cucumber rolled in rice and covered in sesame seeds. The Chicken satay is great....the best thing about it is the celery salad/garnish that it comes with. The celery is cut into fine slices and there is a vinaigrette spread over it....delicious!
The service was so fast....we got our sushi rolls, prior to our appetizers, but no complaints here! All in all, the Cowfish is an interesting spot, definitely a date destination. From the cool decor, tasty food, to the weirs Rosetta Stone language lesson that plays in the bathroom......the Cowfish is one of a kind!
