    Giants game.
    David M.

    The Kru proper is a full five star option. James Beard award winner and deserving of a Michelin star. Bumped across this location by Kru and figured it to be a great option for Kru light. ....not so fast! Not at all deterred by the smoke, the drone of slot machines and a place where smiles were all but absent. Big times at the casino on a Friday night. I was on a quest for sushi that resembled the famed Kru I'm accustomed to. It was a big tucked in the rear where there's a food court. The menu was simple enough and a decidedly light version of the mothership which was absolutely expected. Again the smiles were absent as we ordered. Service with a smile has died here. None the less onward we went. Ordering an array of nigiri and a couple rolls we were familiar with. The Giants were on the television so that was cool. The soy sauce came in packets, the wasabi was very congealed and diners were expected to mix this all in an absurdly small condiment cup. Still my optimism persisted as the Kru proper was so fresh and delicious a dipping sauce is unnecessary. They hollered out my name and we went to gather our treasure with enthusiasm. Visually it all looked familiar save for one piece of the nigiri sampler that was so disfigured it was a pass. Some of the nigiri was repetitive. This never happens at Kru. If you don't have the requisite 7 change it up to 5. I opted to dive in for the Hamachi sans sauce and ...womp womp it was a swing and a miss. The fish lacked the freshness I've come to expect. Oh well time to see what a little soy sauce and wasabi could do. Sadly it wasn't enough to square things up. In addition to the poor excuse for hamachi, there was a mystery piece that was unidentifiable. It was such a ragged and sad piece neither of us were willing to give it the benefit of well placed doubt. The track record was already suffering badly. While the salmon looked fresh it wasn't and was too stringy to eat. It was unceremoniously spit into a napkin. The hamachi scallion and spicy Liz rolls masked the substandard quality of the fish to some degree. Sadly it just wasn't enough. This place is a hard pass for us. I don't understand how Kru can allow this to happen. The "newness" is no longer an excuse, if it ever was. Please do better, I'm a lost customer. For the sake of those dining here in the future you're just too good for this. Yes I understand it's not the mother ship, but it doesn't need to be where the mothership crash landed with no survivors. A generous two stars.

    This place is part of the food court at the Sky River Casino. My sister and I prefer vegetarian or vegan foods, but when it comes to fish or seafood we can make an exception. (But for me, it must be cooked)! Fukuro by Kru was kind of a last resort restaurant for us because we couldn't find any place that served vegetarian or gluten free meals. The menu is quite limited here but understandable, because we are located in a casino where patronage can be a more difficult customer attraction. The order taker at the counter was very nice and patient with our decision making. She tried to answer my sister's questions on what ingredients were in their dishes. (She is allergic to gluten and wheat). But she really wasn't knowledgeable enough to help. My sister ordered 2 items: the Shiro Maguro Roll and Eel-avocado. I got the Shrimp Tempura Roll because at least it wasn't raw. Our food was satisfactory, but unfortunately, my sister had a bad feeling and became concerned about what she was eating, and decided to ask the sushi maker directly. That's when he informed her that there is wheat in some of the ingredients used to make the rolls. She had to stop eating her food and continued to be hungry for the rest of the afternoon, until she could get home to eat something that was compatible with her digestive issues. We probably won't be visiting the food court in general any time soon.

    Caterpillar Roll and Spicy Liz

    Highlight to my visit to a bad casino. Fukuoka by Kru is inside Sky River in Elk Grove, and I've been wanting to try it for a while. Finally, I bit the bullet and went for it. The rolls are large, and the presentation is great per the attached photo. I opted for the Spicy Liz, which seems to be a take on the Spicy Tuna roll and the Catepiller roll. The caterpillar roll was great, with lots of flavor, and the sheer size of it was unexpected. The Spicy Liz was equally well done with a sprinkling of thinly sliced onion on top. I like to mix my soy sauce with Wasabi and dip that way. The Wasabi is tasty. Good balance between that Wasabi kick and flavor. They are tucked behind a pizza joint and next to Ocean in the food court. Staff is super friendly and was happy to chat with me about the rolls and sashimi plate they were working on for someone else. I missed the opportunity to grab a photo of it. Maybe if I'm back but again... It is at sky river, so chances of us coming back anytime soon are slim. If you have a little money to spend and want some large portion rolls, I'd say go for it.

    I love Kru and was so excited to see Fukuro by Kru in the food court inside of Sky Casino. The menu is limited to rolls, nigiri and few sides. We weren't hungry but curious to try the rolls. We went with "Spicy B", which had shrimp tempura, spicy tuna, cucumbers, avo, seared tuna and microgreens. It had way too much sauce and covered the freshness of the fish and other ingredients. It was also very spicy. If you can't tolerate spicy food, this roll is not for you.

    This market place restaurant has not let me down yet. I have tried almost all the rolls on menu then they add more items. I love eating just one roll and then going to the desserts restaurant for a banana split. I will be back to try more.

    My hubby and I tried 2 of their rolls, rainbow and spicy liz, plus an order of salmon nigiri. The ingredients were fresh and portioned similarly to a sit-down restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised! The chef and lady who took our order was really nice. We'd definitely come back again for sushi.

    Super tiny selection of nigiri. None of the key items that separates legit sushi from pretenders were available, like Uni, Unagi, toro, etc.

I love my tart, vinegar, lemon, capers, and pickled stuff....hubby....eh..not so much. So I ordered German Meatballs and my lovely pretzel with beer cheese. The meatballs are meaty, potatoes are the real deal, mashed and with gravy poured on top! Hubby ordered the beef brisket with spatzle. The brisket was tender and the spatzle was quite mac n cheesy, using gouda as the cheese of choice. So I am loving my lovely pretzel and mustard, loving his brisket and spatzle, and loving my german meatballs. Good heavens this place was made for me! Hubby on the other hand is not a fan of tart or cheesy. So he is less than satisfied. In order to rectify this problem I order the Haus Plate with the sweinschnitzel and mashed potatoes and gravy. It comes with sauerkraut, rotkohl, and seasonal veggies (sauerkraut and rotkohl on the side). The beer of choice is hefeweizen, it goes well with the tang of the dijon mustard. Hubby wasn't a fan of the orange notes. Hubby did appreciate the sweinschnitzel and seasonal veggies though. Hooray! I love coming here and will continue my patronage!! Also a fun little trivia night took place at the end of our meal. We participated and got quite a few answers right. Cool beans!

The atmosphere is perfect to watch games at, decompress after work with coworkers/friends, or a nice casual dinner night with the fam. There is a variety of seating throughout the restaurant. You've got the bar top, high top tables, 4 top tables, and bench tables for large groups. Our server, forgot his name, frequently checked in on us. Yet, women being women catching up we had to keep saying give us a few mins. Haha! We appreciated his diligence in trying to serve us and getting food into our bellies. I ordered the Haus Fries which the cheese oddly reminded me of In N Out's animal style fries sauce (HUGE FAN btw). Fries were meh and I had to ask for extra cheese. The taste I couldn't get over so next time I'd opt for something else, this is just me. I only want that taste from In N Out. My friend ordered the Haus Burger. Super juicy and my kind of meal. Highly recommend it!

You'll see people biking here (there's a bike parking area), bringing their dogs (the brewery provides dog treats and water bowls), and enjoying live music. There are several seating areas to choose from: * Outdoor covered seating near the food truck * Indoor seating with air conditioning * Outdoor covered seating by the live music * Additional outdoor seating close to the stage Restrooms: Two clean, well-maintained stalls with air conditioning. One of my favorite things is that you're welcome to bring your own picnic! They also offer a 15% discount for military members and first responders. Other nice touches include a phone charging station and plenty of outdoor games like cornhole, giant Connect Four, ping-pong, and bocce ball. I especially loved the cozy fire pits. For drinks, they have 24 taps plus wine, kombucha, cider, and hop water, so there's something for everyone. I really enjoyed the atmosphere: it's a great place where people gather to listen to live music, sip a beer, grab something from the food truck, or simply enjoy a picnic with friends and family. If you're looking for a fun, welcoming beer garden, I highly recommend this place!

The menu had different ramens, sides, wings, and garlic noodles. Things are little pricier, but comparable to other ramen places lately. We got the Tori Paitan with extra noodles, and the Tantanmen. Our ramen came out pretty fast. The chasu pieces were pretty big, and we loved it include a whole marinated egg. The broth on the paitan was deep and rich. The noodles were nice, and there was good amount given in the extra noodles. Both ramens were pretty filling that we needed to bring leftovers home. The staff were helpful and quick to refill out waters. They are connected to a boba place which we found cool. We also loved the cool wall mural, reminding us of the alleyways in Japan.

Usually I would opt to order a ramen shop's specialty, such as the Maru Ramen, which I believe I had previously, and I remembered it being pretty good. The vegan tantanmen had a vegan broth, mushrooms, fried burdock, grilled eggplant, and other toppings. The mushrooms and fried burdock made the ramen really good. I wished I had more grilled eggplant! I did not miss the meat at all with this dish. The vegan broth was surprisingly rich for being vegan. Service was very nice. The restaurant is connected to MooMoo, so you can walk right through there. There is also plenty of seating. Outside there is also plenty of parking. Overall, I would highly recommend Maru!

The fries were actually pretty good, an above average standard French fry with salt. The burger however was phenomenal. There was an amazing crust on the outside reminiscent of a backyard bbq. There was ample bacon, lettuce, cheese and sauce to make it a balanced bite. The bun was high end brioche style, they really went all out on quality of ingredients. A standard burger build but done perfectly! Beer was cold, food was great and the ambiance is a perfect local bar. Great spot to go if you don't mind hunting for a parking space.
