Tanaka Sushi

+ Sushi? A+++++++  Delicious!

+ No muss, no fuss.  This is a "cafeteria style" restaurant.  You come in, you order right away, you pay, you sit down and wait for your food.  Your food is called out, you pick it up from the counter, you eat.  When you're done, you put all your utensils/bowls on the tray and bring it back to the counter.  Then, you leave.

+ Chef Tanaka was behind the sushi counter when we came in and gave a warm greeting.  His sushi creations are delcious!  

- Cashier could be friendlier

No foo foo, high fallutin' stuff here.  The place is small. (Probably holds 20 customers max.)  Just straight up good food.  No mood lighting, no warm ambiance here.  (The place was freezing that we were wearing our coats while eating.)

Not suggested for date night/romantic night.  More for "I'm hungry and I just want to grab a quick bite before going back to the office/ back home/ back to the college campus.

That's all, folks!

While this was NOT the best sushi I have ever had, Tanaka Sushi is still pretty damn good.

I have a love hate relationship with sushi: I love the taste, but I can only have a little because after a while the textures get to me. (I have the same problem with shrimp, lobster, and mushrooms. S'weird, whatever.) So knowing myself, I ordered a spicy California roll, and a spicy shrimp tempura roll to try initially. I figured I could switch textures back and forth and be fine with my food-weirdy-ness.

I can tell you, I woofed those two rolls down in about four minutes flat. Super delish. It was way better than I was expecting and both rolls I ordered were sprinkled with panko crumbs for a little healthy crunch that I really enjoyed. Looking over their menu, they have a lot of interesting rolls to choose from and I can't wait to try some more!

So far I've only ordered take-out, but I like how clean and uncluttered the interior is as well. It's a quick stop shop kind of place for a great work lunch, but maybe not so much for a sit-down-meal.

This guy is the man and this is the place to eat. Hands down
