| - Have you ever had a dining experience that was so satisfying that you want to run into the parking lot and scream, "Oh my Gawd! You have to try this place!" I did and I ... did.
After dining at Oya Sushi, not only did I send text pictures of my meal to three people and told two moms at the school pick up, before I left the parking lot, I gleefully approached an older woman going to get her hair cut. "You have to try Oya Sushi. You have to."
"I'm getting my haircut," she said. "I don't like sushi."
"A ha!" I blasted. "It's more than just sushi."
And it was.
A total culinary experience.
First let me say I am not one for going to those 'dart and go' international cuisine places, which I thought Oya sushi was. And I'm not one to 'dine in' at a place that is a take out joint.
While Oya is small and has only a few tables, there is table service. It's like ... going to your uncle's house for dinner. On my visit there were two employees, both men, both pleasant, and both not only the servers, but the chefs as well. They take pride in what they make and love what they do and that is evident in the taste of the food.
We were given a complimentary bowl of miso soup. If you think all miso is so-so, you need to try this, it was awesome.
My lunch buddy is not a sushi person, but she was excited to see something called a Kimchi Burger. Neither of us knew what it was, so she ordered it anyhow.
She said it melted in her mouth, cooked to perfection, topped with cheese and served with home cut fries. It's a burger with veggie inside.
Because I can live off Ramen, I ordered the Vege Ramen and an order of something I never heard of Kimchi Jeon.
Holy cow, Maruchen Noodles have lost their place in my heart. This ... was the real deal. The noodles weren't soggy or big and fat like Top Ramen, they were freaking perfect. The broth had just the right amount of heat and the egg on top ....okay, I have to stop. I may have to go again tomorrow.
The Kimchi Jeon is like a pancake with vegetables. It's tender and tasty and the dipping sauce so perfect I could drink it. I brought a few pieces home for my daughter and she said it tasted like a spring roll pancake.
Everything was aesthetically pleasing and the price was $23.00 for everything.
I know this review is long, but I can't say enough about Oya Sushi. My lunch buddy commented that not once did I reach for the salt shaker ... that never happens. Everything was fantastic.
I left happy. My curiosity about Oya was satisfied, my tummy was pleased and my debit card did a happy dance after the bill arrived.
