Sushi Raku

Ok, back to normal food!

One of the restaurants that has been showing up on Groupon, LivingSocial, Grouby, MyDailyDeals is sushi raku. It's so easy to take advantage of their deals for good food places. I'd do it again and again.

The thing about Sushi Raku is that you felt like you're eating the decor. Of course, not phyiscally, but it's more like their reason to charge you more because of their decoration instead of their food.

What we found was funny is that every time we get there, inevitably, the hostess will ask if we have a reservation. We take one quick survey, there are plenty empty seats to be had. So, that made her statement with little to no power at all. Although, side bar here: if you are a member of Open Table, it is a good way to rack up some points.


I had the Dragon tea (above) and it's definitely much like a fruit punch but with alot of kick. It's definitely a grown up drink. The beauty of it is that they're consistent every time they make the drink, it's only after drink # 2 that you realize you're drunk. Haha.

I had the dragon roll, and it was pretty good. I think some of it was spicy, and that can be lessened, but I do encourage all date or non-date people to sit at the bar. Our service was excellent sitting right in front of the sushi chef, and they made sure we got what we need even waved down someone to help. So, for that I'll definitely go back.
