Out in the middle of nowhere sits the Jamul Casino. Believe me, you can't miss it. And in that casino sits Loft 94. The Mrs. and I had dinner there on Wednesday night.
We arrived at the casino shortly after 6 and made our way to Loft 94. Loft 94 sits at the far end of the Jamul Casino and overlooks the countryside. We were seated at a table right on the edge of the patio and had an unobstructed view of the surrounding countryside. Honestly, it was a beautiful view. James arrived to take our order. He seemed to rush us at first, but slowed down after a while.
Loft 94's menu offers Asian in nature, which doesn't seem to jive with the name of the restaurant. The menu offers everything from Ramen to Yakitori, to bento, and yes, Sushi. I'm always amazed when I find good Sushi, or even good seafood in general, out in the middle of nowhere. We decided to stick with Sushi.
We started off with the Red Dragon Roll. Which was put together with shrimp tempura, cucumber, spicy tuna, Tobiko(flying fish roe), green onions, and spicy mayo. Then we moved on to the Sensei Roll. It was beautifully put together with Blue Crab, avocado, cucumber, seared Albacore tuna, ginger ponzu, and green onion. We wrapped things up(pun intended) with the Crunchy Roll. It consisted of shrimp tempura, Krab(imitation crab meat), cucumber, avocado, crunchy tempura flakes, and topped with eel sauce.
The only thing that bugged me was that the Sushi was unevenly sliced. Some pieces were bigger than others, which can make it difficult to eat, however; we really enjoyed.
The staff we interacted with were very friendly. My experience with casino hospitality workers is they tend to want to push you out and get the table turned as soon as possible.
