| - First in Flight used to be a bunch of tables and a bar, but as of a couple months ago, it expanded into a sushi-piano bar serving sashimi, special rolls, and a variety of beers/cocktails. Rolls run between $8-$12. Apps include Edamame, Seaweed and Squid Salad, Tuna Poke and Sashimi plates ($5-$8).
Our waitress, Amber, is a little on the slow side with the turnaround for food/drinks, but she is one of the nicest waitresses I have ever met! The sushi is probably a 2 star, but if you're craving it you may as well come here since Charlotte sushi options are dismal. You also won't find anything even close to sushi in this airport unless you want to get some broccoli beef at Mandarin Express. Yeah.... not the same.
I would recommend the Sky Captain because the yellow tail in ponzu sauce is quite fresh. The seaweed salad is what you would expect and served in a decently sized portion for airport standards for $5. The Orville is pretty good but has alot of sweet sauce on top. The Queen Charlotte is not bad, but kind of bland because it's composed of a bland soggy tempura shrimp. And the International Roll would probably be my favorite because I love eel and it's hard to mess up eel.
If I have any recommendations for the business, I would improve the quality of the sushi rice.
