Decided to order take-out sushi from Jpan on Saturday afternoon. Too pricey for pretty standard sushi dishes.
Quality: After a long night out, wanted to order some sushi to replenish the system. Jpan is the closest spot to my apartment, so decided to check it out. The food was okay, but for the higher prices I don't think it was worth it. I started with the Tuna And Salmon Lunch Platter, which comes with two pieces of tuna sushi, two pieces of salmon sushi and a tuna salmon cucumber roll, along with soup and salad. The lunch special is a decent deal, but I did not like the combo roll and felt the tuna was not very fresh. I also ordered the Crazy Spicy Roll, which was salmon tempura and avocado topped with jalapeno and scallion. It was not something I would order again. The Fire Island Roll, shrimp tempura and avocado topped with spicy tuna, was a good mix of flavor though pricey.
Quantity: The lunch special is a good sized meal. The house specialty rolls are quite large, one and a standard roll would be quite filling.
Value: $14 for the Tuna And Salmon Lunch Platter. $12.50 for the Crazy Spicy Roll. $14 for the Fire Island Roll.
Ambiance: Jpan is located along 5th Avenue in the Park Slope area. It is a relatively small sushi spot with about six tables up front, and a little sushi bar area in the back. I believe they may have an outdoor patio open during warmer months, but since I was just grabbing take-out I stuck near the front. The front area was decorated simple with some bamboo sticks to separate tables and dim red-tinted lighting. There was no music playing while I waited, which I found weird.
Crowd: There were two families dining inside and two individuals waiting for take-out orders. It is a fairly casual spot, but definitely set up more for take-out.
Service: My take-out order took about fifteen minutes longer than the estimated time. I put in the order close to when they opened, but they need to update their system to be more accurate.
Parking: Limited street parking across the residential area.
