Yes, I am picky; usually hesitant to give a place full star decorations, but this place was a surprising wonder. I love sashimi: tuna, albacore, hamachi, sake- you name it! Gimme those Omega-3 essential fatty acids.
My gf and I waltzed in in grungy workout clothes, 30 minutes before they were to close- and btw, they close at midnight on weekdays and 2am on weekends. They were attentive, extremely polite and even funny. The head chef also made fresh fish recommendations. The chefs began working on our order and the dishes were served up onto the bar, pronto, one by one.
The albacore sashimi was the primer- served up with visual pizazz. The Spicy Lambada Roll had great texture and a spicy kick and the portion was very generous. Polk St. Roll (pictured above...and to the right) had an affirming eel essence and was easy on the eyes.
The H.O.T. Roll blew my mind- it's a signature dish of theirs, which comes warm, crispy and spicy.
The tab for 1 sashimi and 3 specialty rolls (enough for 3 people) was a BARGAIN- $35!
All I can say, is that I can't wait for the next time it's sushi time, *mmm*!!
