You say I only write what I want to
You say I eat so all the time...so
And I thought what I ate was simple
And I thought that I should review
And now that I am finished
Now you hope that you did something right cause you fed me
Yeah, yeah, you fed me
And you say I only write what I want to
I Yelp lyricals
I Yelp with intentions of dictations that you're listening
or to any words, any place
You don't understand if I really care
But you only see positive: stars, stars, stars
At...Sushi....J
Had to cut the song short so I may review! Sorry Lisa Loeb fans but you all can finish it yourselves! Haha!
Sushi J is a little hot sushi spot located behind the scenes of Oldtown.
Sushi J provides a warm cozy welcome compared to the buzzing night scene. I came here with a a couple of good friends. Needless to say, I've known chef Jay for quite some times and it was good to see him again behind the sushi table.
We started with some edamame and sake bombers to wet our palates. As for the entree we ordered the Marylin MonRoll, Geisha Roll, and the Prince of Persia. The Marylin MonRoll came as a rice-less roll; wrapped with rice sheets and within Lobster mix, cucumbers, avocado, mango and cilantro. Overall, reminded me of a spring roll with lobster, but a solid start since if anything I'd rather eat a rice-less roll - low carb! The Geisha was a regular rice wrap and came with crab meat, cucumbers, shrimp tempura and topped with tuna and avocado; served with yuzu and Siracha sauce. I would say this was my favorite of the night because I always enjoy a crunchy and spicy roll. The Prince of Persia came with Ahi Tuna, avocado, green onion, tempura and served with ginger garlic sauce and Siracha. Again, a crunchy and spicy roll which I love, but this one had that extra garlic aroma and bite to it.
I came back a 2nd time with a foodie friend of mines and this time we shot for the Sushi Omakase tailored to our price point. Totally awesome! Our omakase came with Uni roll, a spicy tuna hand roll, and a plate of sashimi. I totally love the Uni Roll; creamy to the bite and a burst of the taste of the sea. Our sashimi came with Yellowtail, Yellowfin Tuna, fish liver paste, tuna belly and scallops. Overall, a solid dish and I can't say enough about each bite. Fresh as can be and and seared to perfection!
In the end, I really enjoyed my visit to Sushi J. I think it's one of the few better sushi joints around town and plus I live close by! The service is good and the amount of specialty sushi is plentiful. - Enjoy!
