Another review of an older visit...this one to a fantastic little sushi place in Camillus. It is attached to an ice cream stand (sort of. They share a building, but are not connected inside.) which is unusual, but adds to the interestingness and since they are near the BEST miniature golf course a great local destination for a fun night out.
This is a smallish restaurant, but very clean and brightly lit. The waitstaff was attentive and friendly, without being overbearing. The menu was decently sized - sushi, sashimi, bento boxes...and a variety of Asian beers. One of these days, I am going to have to go when I'm not working so I can actually imbibe. My meal started with a bowl of miso soup. It was mild with small pieces of tofu. I am normally not a fan, but this was a nice, sweet soup and just about right for a starter.
Back to the menu for a moment...it includes "make-your-own" katsu (fried) and tempura (battered and fried) as well as kids options. That makes it a nice way to ease people in to eating/enjoying sushi without throwing them in the deep end right away.
I had a basic stand-by - tuna roll with salmon and tuna sashimi, The rice was well-seasoned and the fish was mild with almost no fishy taste. The portions were a good size for the price and the roll and pieces came out very quickly.
While the food is all made fresh and to order, this means that there is no conveyor belt. While that is one of the joys of going for sushi (being able to grab what looks good as it passes by), not having it also allows for a quieter dining experience. Honestly, it's kind of a toss up as to which is the way to go...let's just say that for all you can eat/choosing what you want when it looks good go to a place with a conveyor belt. When you want to have a nice sit down dinner and know what you want? Come here (or a similar place) for a relaxing dinner.
