Sushi & then some.
p.s Patio is now open here.
Don't come here for the service. Come here for the fresh FRESH FRESH maki.
The California roll has fish eggs rolled inside (when did fish eggs become a standard garnish option...what happened to good ol' parsley?)
the avocado roll is so fresh. ( I can't stop stressing how fresh everything is)
The spicy salmon is amazing. I'm very picky with raw meat and this just made me run to the alter..agreeingly.
Confessional fun fact: I've always called myself a fake sushi eater. Which is true. I'm very much into the western concoction of "sushi". I'm fine with this. I understand how annoying it is for real sushi eaters. I do. I get scolded on it way more than I'd like. -_- just remember, we need love too.
So, my sushi reviews are strictly for my fellow fake sushi lovers. Unite! Fret not real sushi lovers. I still got's love for Yewwww!
*I assure you, I do NOT pretend to know sushi*
Anywhoo, (pardon that tangent)
The bill comes up a bit higher than average, but still pretty decent. A maki roll is $5.99
if you like things on the side, be prepared to repeat it a few times. Whatever, you get good food.
order:
California maki roll x2 - amazing. I can eat this all day long. Fresh! Fresh! Fresh!
spicy salmon maki roll - really superb. The sauce doesn't go all over the place. The concentration of the salmon is so little. Which is probs why I didn't oppose the raw idea.
sweet potato tempura maki roll - wow. This was gonzo. In minutes.
Gyoza - This was different from other places. It's fried a ton more and had a crispy brown outside. Normally it's quite light. I'm going to guess and say normally it's boiled and this time it was fried. (I repeat, guess) - here's a random question... is Gyoza by default pork or beef? I know you can have the option of both but I'd like to know how it comes standard.
4 maki rolls with gyoza came up to $27.00.
I'm upset there was no extra side stuff and the staff didn't speak much English. Also, forgot my side sauce. Boo urns.
Come here if you want good sushi & need little to no assistance from staff.
