WENDY AND TOM DINE OUT

We wandered into this restaurant without having any idea how good it would prove to be. The first thing that struck us was the cleanliness of the entire place. The "techno industrial girdered ceiling" (Tom's comment) gave a feeling of height to the room. The rest of the area was created in tones of red, yellow, and green. These colors were reflected in the linoleum tiles on the floors to the brightly painted walls. In spite of the abundance of bright colors, the room is somewhat dimly lit with direct lighting over the tables. The restaurant has a combination of banquettes and tables but also has bar seating and seating for 6 at the sushi bar. The menu consists of a mixture of appetizers, soups, salads, fried seafood, meats, many specialty drinks and more. There is also a "minnow" menu for the children. Fresh Catch has some of the most unusual pairings for sushi and they all sounded intriguing. There were 24 nigiri sushi listed and 49 makimono. There were also sushi combination specials for both lunch and dinner. Our meal was excellent and we will certainly go out of our way to return here again.

ENTREE:

#43 Italian Maki ($10.99) The best! An unusual combination of asparagus, avocado, scallop with melted cheese on top. Very large portion.

OVERALL:

A

There is no doubt that this restaurant gets an "A". We had a great meal here and will definitely return. The sushi was definitely some of the best that we have eaten and the selection is huge. We would like to purchase some of the appetizing foods from the seafood market next time. Today we were not going to be home for hours and we didn't want food spoiling in the heat of the car interior.
