Sushi California

My husband and I have been here twice and luckily we haven’t been disappointed. I always get the sashimi and sushi combo. Service is slow, not sure why since there’s only a handful of customers in the restaurant.

This new Korean owned sushi restaurant recently opened up in Enorae Bistro’s old location. I recently visited Sushi California for some take out.
The «tuna tataki» was lightly seared and served with ponzu sauce — simple yet delicious. The atlantic salmon sashimi was rich and flavourful. «Maguro goma ae» — tuna and avocado in a light sesame sauce; I liked that this dish wasn’t drenched in the sauce, great balance of flavours. «Tako kimchee» is a nice light appetizer which includes tender cooked octopus served with kimchee sauce and cucumbers.
Crazy Spicy Tuna Roll — it has spicy tuna, garlic, green onion and cucumber inside with smoked salmon slices on top of the roll. Interesting flavours — I thought the smoked salmon would overpower everything but luckily it didn’t. It was the right amount of spice and I have to say that I liked the addition of garlic.
Paradise Roll — sockeye salmon, crab meat, mango, avocado and cucumber. The mangoes added a nice balance of sweetness to this roll.
Butterfly Roll — salmon, tuna, surf clam, flying fish roe, mayo, chili sauce, green leaf lettuce and tempura crumbs. This was a good spicy roll
Most of the common rolls like California, Bakudan, Philidelphia, BC Roll, Chopped Scallop etc are about $ 3.95−5.95. The more elaborate rolls like the ones I had are closer to $ 10.95. And nigiri is about $ 3.95 for two pieces.
I like to try a place more than once before giving a review, so hopefully my future visits live up to to the beautiful presentation and flavourful dishes I had. Service was really friendly too.
