They serve "Sustainable sushi" here.....what is it you ask? It's seafood that is caught or farmed that can exist long-term without harming their ecosystem... so I guess it's just fish that aren't over-harvested right?
I went on a Tuesday evening at 8pm expecting to wait for a table.... to my surprise, it was only half full. I'm not a big shellfish fan but the "baked mussels" sounds too good to pass... and it was an excellent choice.. it just melts in your mouth... spicy, sweet, goodness! We also got the sweet potato roll which had pieces of fried potato in the center which wasn't bad... pretty crunchy though. Spicy tempura roll was okay, wasn't spicy unless you dip the sauce on the side. Mix it up roll was really good, bits of crab meat on top with a slightly spicy sauce on top. Tataki roll was a bit too much for me... some of the fish were fishy. I'll probably get the Double Double roll(tempura and spicy tuna sprinkled with a few secrets) next time...didn't see it until I was done eating.
The service there was prompt and we didn't feel rushed at all. The dishes came out almost one at time....the cheesecake is good but not sure if I'll get the red bean pearl next time.
I like the idea of sustainable sushi but there are some fishes that I like to order when I eat at japanese restaurants. Also I'm a bit picky about my seafood because I can't eat all types of fish.... so I felt a bit restricted on what I could order on the menu. I'll definitely come again!!!
