Sushi Monster

If you like your sushi deep fried to perfection, this is the place for you! My wife got horribly ill soon after we went, with symptoms that match either food poisoning or the crab in her dish was actually imitation crab (which she is allergic to). Deep fried sushi amuses me, but based on my wife's experience, we won't be back.

Absolutely delicious Japanese food!

Really cool hideaway type location! I am vegetarian and I ordered the wrong type of veggie sushi. It was too seafood tasting to me but they noticed and helped me get a avocado and cucumber roll without seaweed which was delicious. They have soda, beer, tea, apple juice. Yummy! Vegetarian options: Just order without seaweed if you do not like a fish or seafood taste. Also no seaweed salad :)

Great specialty rolls

Solid rolls. A little pricey. Parking: Street parking is often full

We went here a little after lunchtime and this place was busy. Inside was simply decorated. Every time someone enters, the whole crew happily greets you. It is definitely a welcoming vibe. I placed an order to go, and the 2 ladies there were happy to help. I ordered: 1. Teriyaki steak (dinner portion) - The teriyaki steak came with salad and miso soup. They told me the order was a bigger portion, which was perfect for my husband. I'm glad I ordered an extra order of rice, even after they said that the rice was more than enough. Sorry, we are filipino and love our rice, lol. The steak was super tender and flavorful. 2. Combo B2 (bul-gogi, beef teriyaki, bbq beef short rib, 3 pcs CA roll, and 2 pcs shrimp tempura) - This was perfect for me. A sampler of all the meats. All the meats were so tender, but all stood out in their own way. They didn't taste like they were marinated all in the same sauce if that makes sense. Each one stood out on their own. I loved it. The shrimp tempura was not the standard one that we all know. This one was light and crunchy. It's not soggy and greasy likeli how the other shrimp tempuras get. I wish I had ordered more rice because the portions were on point. 3. Gyoza - This was crispy and crunchy. Almost felt like it was deep fried and not pan-fried like other places. It was also a 2 biter for me, not where you usually pop a whole one in your mouth. 4. Spicy tuna roll - To my surprise, it wasn't spicy, but it was flavorful. 5. Godzilla roll - I think this is the standard dragon roll. Their dragon roll didn't have shrimp tempura. This was delicious. I highly recommend this place and can't wait to go back. The only bummer was that their credit card machine wasn't working when I went. Had to pay Venmo. Good thing I had Venmo. This place was a little pricy but well worth it.

Sushi kuu was closed so we tried here. Disappointed, atmosphere undesirable, fish less fresh than what we're accustomed to. No need to return.
