Really disappointing 3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

I went to Gui for the first time today. I like to feel out a sushi restaurant the first time I go by ordering the standard rolls - in this case, California, spicy tuna, Philadelphia, and shrimp tempura. I found that in Dallas, the quality of those rolls are indicative of the remainder of the menu. The first 3 were average and the shrimp tempura roll was way below average. The service - the waiter and waitress that I had were less than enthusiastic. A couple of guys working at the sushi bar seemed pretty cool though. There is no reason to go to Gui in a city that has Sushi Sake, Tei Tei, Fuse, Blue Fish and even Fish and Sushi Zushi all of which are much better than this restaurant . I wouldn't recommend Gui at all.

Pros: $20 all you can eat and drink rolls and sake on Tuesday
Cons: The food, the music is pretty lame, the waitstaff was subpar the time I went

Gui <3 5 Star Rating - World class

I have only been to Gui four times, but it is amazing <3! The price is right for the kind of taste and display for the food. The sushi is presented as an art piece, making me sad when I have to eat it since it looked really pretty. Out of all the sushi restraunts I have been to, this one has to have the most fresh fish. The service at Gui though is probably the best part. Everyone is friendly and I am surprised by how well the staff remember me, even if it has been a month or two. Kevin, the owner, is always nice and treats me very well with my family and friends. About the parking issue though, it may seem small in the front but there is a sign that says parking in the back, which is a pretty big size so I don't see why people are complaining about that issue. This restraunt though is probably my favorite restraunt of all time and I plan to go back very soon <3!
Fighting~!

Great Sushi 5 Star Rating - World class

I went to Gui on Friday night and the sushi was outstanding. They have signature rolls they make that are really unique, but watch out for the "house sauce" if you don't like anything hot & spicy. They also have a great selection of sake and offer happy hour specials after 10:00p.m.

A new favorite in Uptown 5 Star Rating - World class

The food was impeccable!! My husband and I would visit Gui over and over again. The atmosphere was entrancing and the service was faultless. The pomagranite martini was a perfect quench for thirst after the spicy fare. I would recommend Gui over any other for sushi seekers and the adventurous at heart.
