Came here for a late dinner. Made sure to check in, but when I presented it (free small hot sake with $30 purchase), I was told that they no longer honor that. Their special is now BOGO small hot sake. That's disappointing.
Anyway, ordered a bunch of stuff. The Screaming O was great! Thick cuts and a bit of spice to it. The salmon sashimi was also thick, fresh, and very good. Next up was the soft shell crab tempura. All very tasty and fresh. I will admit I'm not a fan of the friend shrimp heads. Little sucker stuck me in the mouth! One last bit of revenge, I guess! ;-)
The short ribs were a little charred. The sizzling plate was good, but could have used some mushrooms and less onion.
Also order the crab, calamari, and vegetable tempura. I do not suggest it. The calamari was tough. I'm not sure if the snow crab was actual crab or krab. The vegetables were ...
One pleasant find was the Johnny Roll, crab meat and shrimp tempura wrapped on cucumber with spicy yum sauce. It was light, crisp, and delightful. The spicy yum sauce with the cool cucumber was a great combination. I would highly recommend it.
A few side notes... check the menu carefully because anything with a red hashtag is 1 per person only. Most of the really good stuff is is tagged. Also, we were a little surprised at serving our hot green tea with a regular coffee cup. This is one of the few sushi places I k ow of that has a patio area for sitting outside when the weather is nice. That's cool!
As for the service... the host was very friendly, both on the phone when I called in for a table and when we got there. Our server warmed up after a bit.
Anyway, there are quite a few sushi places in town. Daisho is a good place to try. Check them out!o
