Prices: Ok

After hearing the young university students rave about this place, we finally tried it as a family…read moreevening early dinner spot. While they seem to have some great happy hours and specials during the week - They do not on Saturdays. The crab meat Rangoon appetizer at six dollars was excellent. The chicken teriyaki that we shared was also excellent with the sauce being the perfect amount of salt, and not too sweet as sometimes they are. My spicy tuna roll for six dollars was very good and they were nice enough to put the mayo sauce on I love that usually comes on scallop rolls. Beautiful Japanese ambience that also gives you TVs and seems like a little bit of a bar scene to cater to everyone. Overall, with the great service, it was a five star experience and the dinner for three people came out to $60 before tip.

We tried their snow-aged sake this time (yes, aged in snow for three years!) and it was incredible--smooth, clean, and unlike anything else you'll find around here. As always, the sashimi was fresh, beautifully plated, and melt-in-your-mouth good. We mentioned we were celebrating a special event, and they surprised us with the cutest orange "bear" fruit carving. It's that kind of thoughtful, personal touch that makes this place unforgettable. I can never resist their Taiwanese popcorn chicken--crispy, tender, and packed with flavor--and the Three Cup Chicken tasted incredibly authentic. You can really tell this place is run by owners who care about getting it right, both in taste and presentation. Warm ambiance, kind service, and dishes that actually taste like home--Sushiya is a rare gem in the Midwest.

Spicy Tuna Roll - this was a good roll and pretty mild on the spice. Not a huge fan of the crunch inside, it kind of dried out the roll a little for me, but it was still good! Crazy Boy Roll - this was a really good fried roll, lots of flavor and would order it again! Overall great experience. I came in between the lunch and dinner rush so it was pretty empty and the food came out quickly. The server was friendly and helpful.

We started off with a mango lemonade and blackberry lemonade. Big glasses. Nice colors. Not sure where the lemon or fruit was in the drink. Out came the gyoza and fried calamari rings and the Salmon Lover Roll. The gyoza was the best part of the lunch. The calamari was chewy. I expected savory sauce for dipping but they went with sweet. That's ok. The salmon roll was "ok". But not on the list to reorder if or when we return. I read another review that suggested folks stick to the ramen side of the menu... unfortunately I read that review after we had eaten. Maybe next time...

I ordered a jalapeño cream cheese roll that unfortunately was completely overpowered by onions -- it drowned out the other flavors. I also tried a roll with a wasabi honey sauce that just didn't work for me at all; the sweetness and wasabi combination tasted off and kind of unpleasant. The other rolls weren't bad, but they felt like they were missing some texture -- a bit of crunch would have made a big difference. That said, the ingredients seemed fresh and the presentation was nice. I'd consider giving it another try and ordering differently next time.

Formosa continues to be a family fav for us…read more Is it the best sushi you'll ever have? No. Is the service always spot on? No. Is the menu limited? Kind of. -- They have sushi galore. But the entrees are indeed limited. Is parking readily available? No. -- You'll need to park at the Dubuque Street Ramp (first hour free.) Is the location convenient? Sure! -- If you're downtown, it is a great spot just off the ped mall. Does it deliver? Heck yes. -- Check out CHOMP and also see on Formosa's social if they have a promo code for x off. They typically do. We come here for cheap sushi that hits the spot and bomb.com crab rangoons. My family of four typically comes during a day they have specials, too. So you'll find maki rolls being extremely cheap, as well as specific apps and adult beverages. Pricing is pretty on point. Last night we ordered five maki rolls with two specialty maki rolls and two crab rangoon orders with delivery fee/tip for under $80. I feel like that was a net win. We all left the table happy campers. Formosa serves a purpose and it gets the job done if you walk in with the right expectations.
