Sushi fans unite! (sushi, sashimi, udon)

[mobilezen]

So sushi fans...where are you...come forth! My favorite foods are Japanese and Italian but Japanese cuisine takes front and center stage. Anyone else like sushi?

Count me in. I was stationed in Japan for 4 years and got married over there. My wife is Japanese, so naturally, she loves sushi. We try to go to Sushi Sake at least once a month, but since we spend about $150 each time, sometimes the budget won't allow it.

I use sushi to catch other fish. Works great...but expensive bait. hehe

Love the stuff. The local HEB(YES THE HEB!!!!) makes decent sushi.

Didn't Sushi Sake move to somewhere else? In Richardson, I usually go to Genroku off of Greenvile in between arapaho and main (beltline). There are some decent places around town surprisingly. If I want to get up and go, Whole Foods is a good spot...their Salmon Avocado rolls are huge! Maybe we should do a TPF sushi night?

Love sushi, but tend to shy away from eating it when I'm hundreds of miles from the nearest ocean

The wife and I frequent the Blue Fish in Plano on the Toll Road. Good, but not quite up to what I had back in San Jose/San Francisco.

Anyone know good spots in the North Dallas/Plano area?

I love sushi but for some reason can't stomach sashimi. I can eat raw stuff but it has to be seasoned and/or rolled up. Weird.

Been eating sushi and sashimi since I was like 9 years old. Man that was like over 20 years ago....

Blue Fish is the premier spot for horrible sushi! I have to say that any roll that has veggies in it taste horrible and their sashimi isn't even great.

So many places in Dallas/Plano... Nakamoto (75/Park), Osaka (Preston/Park...It's buffet), umm there's that place off of the tollway and park...forgot its name but its more of a fusion place, Kampai's in Addison circle has great sushi and udon and good Monday happy hour specials.. There are a lot of mom and pop shops in between.

So anyone up for a DFW TPF sushi dinner or something?

Cowtown Sushi in Southlake is a good place. Its relatively cheap and has really good food. Granted it is not the best but for a close place that has good food it wins on my list.

I'm not a sushi eater, but the Tokyo One $15 lunch buffet seems to always draw a pretty big crowd on Belt Line close to Midway. I like the non-sushi stuff, but the majority of people are there for the sushi bar.

Tokyo One and Osaka are the same owners but they use different vegetable companies. If you can make the extra 10 minute trip north to plano, I would recommend it...your stomach will appreciate it.

Sashimi for me.

I LOVE Sushi, Sashimi, etc! I wish I'd tried it earlier in life. Our favorite sushi places are Piranha - Killer Sushi in Arlington (NE corner of NE Green Oaks and N. Collins), Sushi Sam in Southlake, and Reikyu Sushi & Bar (Mockingbird Station - Dallas). If you really want to indulge, get the chef's special boats (for two, three, etc.) at Piranha's.
