I enjoyed a Sunday dinner at home with a delivery from Tsukimi. Since I ordered some fried items, I'd recommend that the restaurant change to some ecological paper boxes instead of the current plastic for at least those items that tend to "sweat" and get soggy. That would have made my experience nearly perfect!
Speaking of fried, I started with the California Egg Roll, which is basically a fried egg roll that has the ingredients of a California Roll sans rice and cucumber, but with the addition of cream cheese. It is served with a sweet and not-so-spicy Asian chili sauce, which is a good match. My mistake was not asking for the sauce on the side as to maintain its crispness. It had a good flavor, however, so it was a nice start. Next was a vegetable tempura with 5 pieces: a large, plump onion ring, a whole mushroom, then large pieces of sliced zucchini, green bell pepper, and sweet potato. The tempura batter was just right: it completely covered the pieces without being too thick. The same can be said of the shrimp tempura (4 long pieces), crunchy and tasty. The restaurant kindly met my special requests of, "no broccoli" and, "extra tempura sauce, please." Tsukimi also included a delicious seaweed salad at no cost to me. Not only was it light and flavorful, but it was the perfect foil to all of the fried food.
I ordered a raw, large, fresh sea scallop sushi, which was included in the box with my order of a Volcano Roll (crabmeat, avocado, and cucumber rolled in sushi rice), then topped with spicy mayo, baked bay scallops, eel sauce, Korean sauce and masago. They definitely don't skimp on the sauces and toppings, which I actually prefer, but keep that in mind when you order. They were also generous with the ginger and wasabi which was perfect for me.
Tsukimi has a large menu that not only includes fresh rolls, sushi and sashimi, but noodle dishes and entrees like katsu, teriyaki and bulgogi. I'm confident that anyone with a craving for Asian food will find something delicious here.
