Ahi Sushi in Eagle

If you haven’t seen or heard it’s there you should check it out. The wife and I went last weekend with a couple of good friends that we love to dine with and all enjoyed ourselves………pretty well.

It just wouldn’t be me if I didn’t have something to complain about. Why else would the wife dub me “the food snob”. First let’s start with the positives. I was impressed with the cleanliness although they just opened and that would be expected of every establishment serving food to the public. I was also impressed with the quality of the food. The rolls were very good (Skipper/Dragon) (Volcano Roll not so good) and the fish was very fresh, firm and cold. The price point was comparable to most and less expensive than top Sushi places in the valley. $140 for the four of us included the beer and enough Sushi to fill us all.
Now for the negatives. They had just an average wine selection and a way below average beer selection. Only two beers to choose from but the do have the large bottles as an option. Pricing on the drinks was average except for the wine that I felt was way over priced. Service was slow (typical of a new place), one brand of Sake and the music selection was weird to say the least. I can honestly say this is the only time I have heard Cyndi Lauper in a Sushi restaurant.

Next time you’re in Eagle check it out and judge for yourself. I’ll go back again. At least the next time I’ll know what to expect. Girl’s just wana have fu un……oh girls just wana have……..
