Naked Tchopstix

I'd like to start by saying that my rolls were pretty good. I went here for lunch with a colleague and didn't have the greatest service experience. Upon entering, we waited for a few minutes before anyone came over to seat us. This was odd since there were two or three servers talking off to the side who had to have seen us and the sushi chefs were there.....texting. Once we were seated, the service didn't get any better. Our server was SLOW! It took us over an hour to have lunch! I watched my roles sit on top of the sushi case for a good 10-15 minutes, which isn't the best environment for RAW FISH. My colleague ordered the chicken lunch box, which our server dropped on the way out of the kitchen. I understand that these things happen, but he didn't even come over and tell us it was going to be a minute and my sushi sat up there even longer. Once we finally got out meals the server disappeared for the rest of the meal. My water was never refilled, even after the server finally came back to take our plates. He finally asked if we were paying separately and returned about 10 minutes later with our checks. Although the food was good, I will probably not be returning to this location because I cannot tolerate poor service!

I must first say my date and I LOVE the Broad Ripple location. This establishment is nothing like the one in B-Rip. The menu was complicated (not your tradition sushi menu) What happened to giving me a pencil and me filling out my own list of what I want? It seemed as if they tried to "Americanize" this location. If I want "Americanized" food I would go get a burger. The food?? Terrible in comparison to the Broad Ripple location.The sauce on the Playboy roll was basicly BBQ sauce.. They don't have a standard "Philly Roll". They brought us a Philly roll with bacon on it! Bacon?? The server was terrible, Our Playboy roll was luke warm because the server spilled most of the cooking fuel on the floor when she brought it to us. Then she got agitated because we were unsatisfied with our experience. Long story short we didn't pay for the meal and the manager gave us a $20 gift card to use at the B-Rip location. So if you are big fans of the B-rip location and are on the North side thinking "hey lets just go to Naked on 96th street"... Don't do it..

The location was convenient. The interior of the place looks fine and we were seated immediately. There are so many menu options since its a combination of east asian food..Chinese, Japanese and Korean. The menu even offers you a tutorial on how to use chopsticks which i find funny. The one thing I'm complaining about this place is their food. We ordered the Maui roll and it was blah. The grade of the sushi rice was disgusting. As Anthony Bourdain would say... A good sushi starts with the rice. Then we ordered their famous playboy roll. The presentation was pretty fancy since it was served on fire on a sizzling plate. However, it tasted like charcoal. I don't understand why this is popular. We also ordered this appetizer where it's a mixture of pork, tuna and mango served on a bed of lettuce. It was beyond disgusting. We actually had the food returned to think I rarely as in rarely do that. The server was nice enough to remove the item from our bill. Order something else I guess besides the sushi.
