Sushiyama

First off, the place did not smell of fish. A good sign that the food is fresh. Sushi was good and fresh but the fish was very thin and the rice was a bit much. I was shocked that I was charged $4.98 for a pot of tea! One pot two cups. I've never been charged for tea at a sushi place before. I'll stick to my regular place for now.

I went for lunch just after noon.  I was the only one at the restaurant.   I liked the decor with a little hut covering the sushi bar.  The miso soup broth was good but there was nothing in it.  Very disappointing.  I ordered the sushiyama combo lunch special.  I wanted to order the udon but refuse to pay $10 for a bowl of noddles.  The salad was very fresh and tasty. The roll was good also.  When I got the bill, I could not believe they charged $2.49 for hot tea.  Most places don't even charge for it.  I they do it is very cheap.  For this reason I will not be returning.

Although I wasn't as enamored with the ambiance as my wife was (I thought it was too dark, and the big screen TV was distracting), the sushi and service were excellent. Moderately priced, neither cheap nor expensive, the sushi was near the top of what I've had in the Indianapolis area. For about $50, two of us stuffed ourselves with sushi and each had a beer.

There aren't a lot of sushi places this far north, but I'm glad that Sushiyama is around. I just wish they would lighten it up a little bit.
