There are three types of rices to choose from: regular white rice, brown rice and black rice. I've ordered the Broadway Bento box and it was a lot of food. It comes with soup and salad first and then the big Bento box. The California roll was alright, I liked the shumai more. The tempura shrimp and vegetables are freshly made. The teriyaki chicken was really flavorful, but it is just a bit dry. It also comes with tempura fish, which was drizzled with spicy mayo sauce to give it a little kick to it. Overall, the service and food was pretty good.
I stopped by for a quick snack and to see what black sushi was all about-the cashier told me it was organic and healthier for you. Black sushi is a smaller area of a larger restaurant Kodama sushi. It is their take-out area. If you choose to sit down, they will direct you into the restaurant. The express area is very small with refrigerated cases on one side containing sushi and beverages. The counter area has the sushi preparers and cashier. There is a small counter sitting area opposite this. The sushi i got was freshly prepared and delicious. The cashier was accommodating and answered all my questions. The black sushi rice is somewhat of a purple color. It is reasonably priced and i would recommend and return.
This will not be my final review and I will have to be update this at a later time. After spotting this place I had my mind set on trying it out after seeing the beautiful pictures of the food on Yelp and there website.
There main feature of the Sushi place was the Black Rice (forbidden rice). I walk in the place and it is clean with nice Japanese decorations all over the place. They also have plenty of seating in the back. The inside was like I was transported to another place from the dumpy 8th avenue corner next to a Chicken Ranch place the shop is located at.
I'm not a big Sushi fan, yet, but I wanted to try the that black rice and asked for' Black Rice Salmon teriyaki' bento box. But was told that, that they had no salmon ready other than the rolls and cut piece that are prepackage that they pointed to and have for sale also. I then ask for the Shrimp tempura, but they said no shrimp.
One of the Sushi chef pointing to the back and was trying to tell to sit in the back dining room and have lunch there. I guess he was trying to make up for my disappointment by preparing something extra that I would like, but I felt let down already and was also bothered that I was the only customer in the place at 1;00 PM. I don't know what was going on, maybe they had trouble today in getting their fresh fish deliveries, I don't know but I try again sometime in the future and to have that black rice.
