We stopped into Matsu recently to pick up a few appetizers to pair with a leftover dinner that we…read morehad waiting for us back at home. The restaurant was casual and comfortable, and the staff seemed very much on top of what appeared to be a very robust takeout order business. While we made our selections live at the cash register, we saw a continuing rotation of patrons coming to grab their meals. The staff had the process down, though, as they maintained their patience, quickly prepared the food, and got everything organized and packed without flaw. One of the items we tried was the Clear Soup, which could have used more mushrooms, but had a flavorful broth infused with fried onions. We also had the Steamed Shrimp Gyoza and Steamed Shrimp Shumai, which had surprisingly different flavors. Both were fresh and delicate, with the Shumai having a bit more of a seafood-forward kick. While we enjoyed the few bites that we sampled from Matsu, we will need to go back to try some sushi from their vast menu that included loads of raw rolls, cooked varieties, and interesting custom creations. If that was not enough of a reason on its own, clearly the continuous flow of takeout diners and slew of local awards on the walls were signs that we needed to return. Plus, that way I would be able to write a more thorough review.

The bulgogi bento box also had excellent beef, alongside rice, dumplings and edamame. I was impressed by their food and look forward to ordering more lunch meals from the restaurant.

Blu Sushi is officially our new favorite sushi spot…read more This small, intimate BYOB restaurant is a hidden gem with incredibly fresh seafood and friendly, attentive staff who never rush you. Reservations are by phone only, which adds to its charm. We started with the miso soup, kani salad, and shrimp tempura--all delicious. The miso soup was flavorful, the kani salad was fresh, and the tempura had a perfectly light, crisp batter. For rolls, the Surf & Turf and Iso Maki are absolute must-orders. The Sushi & Sashimi Boat for Two is generous enough for 3-4 people if you add appetizers or rolls. The first thing you'll notice is the freshness, especially the fatty tuna (toro), it truly melts in your mouth. As big sushi fans who've been to Japan, we can confidently say Blu Sushi delivers exceptional quality. If you appreciate pristine seafood, thoughtful preparation, and a warm, intimate setting, Blu Sushi is a true gem and an absolute must-visit.

THE SERVICE ------------------- = Service was a bit on the slow slide with the 2 waitresses. ---- Food took a longggggg to come out.

RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Was relatively busy on a June Friday evening at 6 PM.

Asahi Sushi in Norwood is a reliably consistent option for freshly-prepared Japanese cuisine in a…read morecasual, no-frills atmosphere. Encouraged by several posts on local Facebook groups raving about Asahi Sushi's 'all-you-can-eat' option, I recently visited with a large group (four adults and two children). The service was exceptional -- we were seated right away at one of the large group tables, the staff was very responsive, and a massive amount of food which barely fit on the table arrived surprisingly quickly. Diners can order sushi rolls and sashimi as well as a variety of freshly-made traditional Japanese dishes (teriyaki, tempura, etc.) either à la carte (paying for each item ordered) or on an 'all-you-can-eat' (AYCE) basis ($28 for lunch or dinner on Monday through Thursday; $30 for lunch or dinner on Friday through Sunday and holidays). AYCE includes soup, salad, hot and cold appetizers, sushi, sashimi, tempura, teriyaki, and even ice cream or tempura bananas and oreos (if you have room for it after your meal). Even if you're not in the mood for a heavy meal, I still recommend the AYCE option if you're going to order more than two of the premium sushi rolls (which range from $14 to $15 apiece). There's no limit to the number of orders you can place, but it's best to pace yourself by ordering a few items at a time. We ordered a LOT of food for our group, including several hot and cold appetizers, katsu chicken, sashimi, and special rolls. While the quality and freshness of the ingredients was obvious, the overall experience definitely put an emphasis on quantity over quality. I tried the Kiss of Fire roll (made with tuna, salmon, and yellowtail topped with avocado and spicy mayo) and the Outstanding Roll (made with spicy tuna and avocado topped with pepper tuna). Both were perfectly acceptable, but they felt uninspired and lacked the distinct flavor or 'wow factor' that makes a sushi place a true destination. My meal definitely wasn't bad -- the service was great, our large order was served very quickly, and no one got sick. I'd give it 2.5 stars, rounded up to 3 stars. It's a solid, consistent option if you are in the Norwood area, especially for families or large groups. However, it didn't quite live up to the 'must-visit' hype for me. I'd return for the convenience and value, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. PRO TIP: Bring a bottle of wine or beer from home or stop at 86 & Vine right across Livingston Street to enjoy with your meal. Asahi is a BYOB establishment and does not serve alcohol.
