    Sushi
    Jeffery B.

    Sushi is good, music is loud and annoying, hard to talk & hear conversation over the loud music

    Espresso Martini 10/10 Hannah aced it. Made it exactly how I love it.

    Food 10/10 Service 100/10 Ambiance 10/10 I had just stopped here to grab a drink before meeting up with my cousins and got a small appetizer and definitely will be back here probably tomorrow or whenever Hannah is working because her customer service skills are phenomenal. So welcoming so kind so attentive makes you want to automatically come back. My drink was really good and shishito pepper was made exactly how I asked well done with a side of spicy mayo, excited to come back and have the whole dining experience. This place is a vibe.

    Fun ambiance and friendly staff. Started with the tempura green beans and they were fantastic ! Just lightly battered and crisp, I hated the sauce it came with almost a bitter tart flavor so I just used soy sauce. Okay this is an odd thing or perhaps I missed something......the sushi paper menu arrived with no pencil and just listed names of items not what happened to he in those said items. Figured the menu would surely breakdown the different rolls but IIT DIDN"T. So I had to ask our server what was in several things, she was pretty knowledgeable but did have to check with the chefs once to confirm. We ended up having the soft shell crab roll which didn't have a lot of crab in it, spicy tuna that was fantastic and another roll I forgot what she told me was in it but it was doused in eel sauce and ungodly sweet. Everything tasted good aside from the one roll but I probably won't be back until I can read what a roll consists of instead of going in blind or having to have the server explain each one.....annoying.

    Whether it's a date night, out with a group of friends or just a night alone- I have not had a bad experience here. Staff is always friendly. Food is always great. Atmosphere is perfect. I like to grab a corner and occasionally treat myself to a nice meal while I read and this location never disappoints! Love their crab puffs!

    Helpful and quick service, live music outdoors for a fun vibe, and great tasting sushi! Pokémon roll was great!

    Rice pudding brûlée

    Service 10/10 Ambiance 10/10 Food 2/10 The ambiance is really nice. It's a very clean restaurant. We went at 2:30pm on a Sunday and it was less than half full. Their menu is laid out well and it appears they like things a little spicy here. We started with the crab rangoons, which were stuffed well, but for us the sauce doesn't pair very well with them (Asian chili sauce). The rangoons unfortunately tasted really fake (imitation crab, as some sushi restaurants do) but these tasted more so. I asked our server and they actually don't serve any real crab here. I wish their menu would state that, as many of our fishes had krab but again tasted off. We finished with the rice pudding brûlée and I have to say this was an interesting take on the popular dessert. The fruit was very macerated which I wish their menu dish had more of, as it is a very sweet dessert with the sugar top. Initial impression was that we wouldn't come back but if we did we'd try all new stuff. Although it looks great inside and the servers are working for the money, the food is what it's all about. Prices without alcohol came out to about $50 a person.

    Banana Gun

    Came in on a Monday night around 6:30. It was busy but nit crowded. Bar seating and table seating both available. The server was friendly and the food was good. Ordered the Banana Gun drink, wasn't what I expected, it was mire like an iced espresso, couldn't really taste the alcohol but it was good. Ordered poppers to start, They were a delicious starter, the Cougar roll was delicious as well and the Thai Chicken fried rice finished it off. To full for dessert, maybe next time.

    We stopped into Squid Ink on a Saturday night and luckily snagged a table in the bar--just a heads-up, they don't take reservations, so timing is everything! The place has a cool, laid-back vibe with a great patio outside (bonus points for the misters). The bartender was super friendly and really helpful with suggestions. We started with the Korean Sticky ribs as an appetizer--so flavorful and tender. For dinner, we had the chef special: chicken curry ramen with a fried egg on top. That dish totally stole the show. So comforting, perfectly seasoned, and the egg on top was a great touch. I had the spicy yellowtail poke bowl with half rice, half greens. It was fresh and had great texture, but I think it needed a little dressing to tie it all together. As for drinks--we tried the tequila old-fashioned, which was smooth and well-balanced, garnished with a Luxardo cherry and orange slice (yes, please). I went with the Fancy AF cocktail, and it was just that--super refreshing and light. Overall, the atmosphere was great, service was solid, and we'll definitely be coming back to explore more of the menu.

    Great food, service and music. We come here often and they're good every time. It can get a bit busy but it's worth the wait. We came today on a Friday evening around 6:15p, we just missed the HH. HH is Mon-Fri 3p-6p.

    I don't remember the name of this cut roll. It was good.

    We decided to finally try out this restaurant for some sushi & left saying how amazing everything…read morewas! This restaurant is located in a strip mall attached to some other great spots! The restaurant itself is definitely on the smaller side but they also have outdoor dining as an option. This is what one would call a hidden gem because we were definitely not disappointed as we were walking away. Once you sit down you'll realize that this is a restaurant where you're having several random servers taking care of you. So once we finally decided on our choices everything came out fairly quickly even with there being a half full restaurant. We started with some pork gyozas which is one of my husband's favorites & he was happily pleased... they were very fresh. We also had some of the tempura shrimp & onion which were both perfectly cooked without being greasy. As for the sushi we went with the shrimp tempura roll which was some of the best, the rice was cooked perfect plus everything was balanced just right. Then we also had the spider roll which I just loved because I love soft shell crab... OMG with the avocado & cream cheese, there were zero complaints on my end! Overall everything that we chose was so delicious that we've since been back to grab take away from here when we're craving some fresh sushi!

When we entered the establishment it smelt like funnel cake as well so not sure lol. Everyone else enjoyed their rolls and they have been before. May stop in the future to give it another shot and try something different. Waiter was nice and quick though :)

The Mackerel was well marinated and not too sour but also a nice fatty flavor. The white tuna, has an extremely subtle flavor but all the Sashimi did not have a fish taste, which is all that I ask for. The grilled shrimp was well seasoned. The oyster is hard to determine. Overall, A great experience, value, and worth the drive if you're craving Sashimi.

    Friday Night Dinner with the Fam to KickOff Our Spring Break Adventures!!!…read more This was a good choice. There are many items to choose from on the all-you-can -eat menu. Everything was fresh and tasty. The presentation was excellent, as well. My fav is the Carpaccio and The baked mussels. Yum! After I tapped out, they brought a beautiful tray of oysters for another table that looked amazing. I would try that next time. We also had the Spicy Garlic Edamame, Miso soup, Seaweed Salad, and the Gyoza. Our server was super sweet and very attentive. All the staff work as a team to make sure everyone is happy and getting everything they need. They all help to clear plates and bring new dishes to the table. They have a decent array of drinks and Sakis. The seating has a good size area with booths and tables. They have room to move tables to accommodate for larger parties, which is a bonus. There are tv screens up on the walls with different shows and videos playing. They also have music playing which was nice. It's a fun & casual vibe. They just recently changed ownership and names so that's probably why we got in so quickly on a Friday night. They are making changes to the menu and so there will be more updates coming soon. The parking is right outside and it's a big shared lot so it was easy. The building and windows are dark but at night they have a new neon sign that says" Brave Sushi-all you can eat. " There are two cost options you can pick $35 for all you can eat, except the Nigiri, or $40 to include the Nigiri. They both include ice cream for dessert. When you are in Peoria, Arizona, check it out!
