Everything was very fresh even after it was delivered to our house and we had ti delay our dinner at home by an hour plus everything wad still fresh. Ask the roofs tasted good, the kani salad wasn't drenched in mayo like most are and that was a pleasant change since I'm trying to eat healthy.
We ordered ask special rolls the prices could be cheaper but it's quality sushi and good product do we didn't care.
I think this will be our sushi spot from now on.
I am a sushi lover, but I recently lost all hope in enjoying sushi when I went from being a pescatarian, to a complete vegetarian. Today, the hubs and I decided to give this place a shot, as they appeared to have a very significant vegetarian section. We couldn't have been happier! The service was outstanding–including the comfort and reliability they gave us in assuring us that our meals were "seafood" free (seafood allergy). I know it's a bit ridiculous to ask at a sushi restaurant, but they didn't for a second make it seem like an issue, and even went through the menu to explain which ingredients were cross-contaminated. The allergy was even typed on the bill!
Aside from that, the vibe of the place was very relaxing; the waitresses were very friendly, and gave top notch service; and all of the food was delicious. It completely changed our worlds, and we'll definitely be returning to enjoy some vegetarian sushi! Excellent excellent excellent!!!!
I decided to try Xaga on Friday night before meeting my friend for coffee at the Bellmore Bean. I already ate a lot that day because my job had a bake sale and I ate a good share of sweets from the bake sale, but a girl's gotta eat regular dinner too right?
When I looked them up I realized you could place an online order! Right away I knew I would probably love them as long as the food was decent. I needed to grab my dinner really quick after work before I got on my train. I have the kind of job where sometimes it's not appropriate for me to be on the phone unless the call has to do with work or if I'm taking a break and making a call. So ordering online was a plus I didn't have to worry about stepping away for a phone call dinner order.
I had the avocado salad, the avocado and peanut sushi roll and Vegetable tempura. The vegetable tempura was fried to perfection, the avocado salad was a nice size portion with fresh veggies and a good sized avocado. The peanut sushi roll was deliciously crunchy and wonderful.
This is one of the better places to eat if you are in the five towns for sure!
First time here at Xaga tonight. Easy to miss, but really a gem in the area. The menu was pretty impressive so there's easily plenty to choose from. The host promptly seated my group of three and the decor was better than I expected. I can't speak on many of the drinks but we did order a Scorpion Bowl and the presentation was enough to make me come back. The food was prompt and delicious. Overall good experience.
My only con though:
The waitress completely disregarded one person's drink order the first time around. She seemed to be rushing us and then even handed us the bill barely halfway through the meal. I get the business is closing soon for the night, but as a server (or even a business), ending on a good note is crucial with your guests. We didn't plan on sticking around all night, but we wanted to at least enjoy the rest of our food without feeling like we have no option but to box up the rest or stuff it down our throats. Would have been 4 stars if not for that.
Also, the music didn't seem to fit the atmosphere. Not a deal-breaker… But it just threw me off a bit.
We sampled four different sushi rolls, various sushi pieces, and two hot appetizers – the duck roll and the chicken lettuce cups.
All the sushi was very good and fresh tasting, the best of them being the salmon belly, which was melt-in-your-mouth tender.
The chicken lettuce cups were not particularly interesting flavorwise, but were at least easy to eat – the lettuce was nice and firm, and the chicken was not too wet.
I thought the duck rolls – which were similar to egg rolls in style – were the best. These were served super hot, crispy, and had a great balance between the duck and the other ingredients in the filling.
All in all a good meal, but short of what I could rate as a four star.
