Casual, counter-serve kitchen that serves sushi rolls and ramen.
Stumbled upon this place while strolling around Fenway. During a busy Saturday lunch hour, the dining room was completely empty, so I initially didn’t have high expectations. Along with some shumai, I got two of their specialty rolls. The shumai tasted like it came straight out of a microwave from a frozen packet, but it was still decent. Thankfully, the specialty sushi rolls were satisfying. Between the Blizzard and the Crazy Maki, my favorite was the Crazy Maki, which came with a surprisingly thick layer of sesame tuna tartare on top. Similarly, the Blizzard rolls came with a generous layer of crab stick, and a light drizzle of sriracha sauce added a nice flavor boost.
Since they’re also on Fooda, I got to try their poke for lunch as well. Despite its relatively high price, the Poke bowl was somewhat of a letdown in terms of both size and quality. With just seaweed salad, avocado, and tobiko, it lacked complexity and refinement, and it was one of the most basic poke I had in a while.
Overall, a solid budget option for sushi rolls. While some of their offerings may be a miss, the quality and value of their specialty rolls make it a worthy contender.
