People spoke Japanese and catered to Japanese clientele... I guess I'm a bit picky, living in Japan for 6 years, but is there any place in/near Columbia that serves simple, straightforward sushi. Colorful rolls are nice, but are not what I call authentic, and all the non-fish ingredients just icolithichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08354614040850359148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6242128247197293599.post-4597637632490466462010-02-20T00:47:31.167-05:002010-02-20T00:47:31.167-05:00My newest favorite at sushi sono...The Scallop rol...My newest favorite at sushi sono...The Scallop roll...

The portions of fish are easily the largest that I have ever had at any sushi restaurant, and the freshest. The Ootoro (Fatty Tuna) is possibly the best thing I have ever eaten.

I 2nd all your comments about friednly service and the positive energy. The mananger/hostess is wonderful! And the food is so good! We like all of the rolls you mentioned and we usually end with tempura ice cream. It reminds me of funnel cake with an ice cream center. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6242128247197293599.post-45792621612563116642010-01-25T15:42:25.125-05:002010-01-25T15:42:25.125-05:00When Nichi Bei Kai changed hands, I tried many oth...When Nichi Bei Kai changed hands, I tried many other sushi bars (including Sono) and found them lacking. I recently decided to give NBK another try, and was happy to find that the new management had gotten back on track.<br /><br />Sono definitely has a better view, but parking is a hassle, and IMHO the sushi selection has too much trendy stuff. NBK is more authentic and the prices are better.ho.co.pohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08015145141657999016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6242128247197293599.post-74496529095918460362010-01-25T15:24:21.178-05:002010-01-25T15:24:21.178-05:00I love sushi, wish I had the money.

I'm one of those strange people that loves sushi, but don't like fish at all. Which means I'm usually stuck with veggie, california, or shrimp tempura rolls. I'd love to find a place that offers something more interesting for those of us non-fish eaters :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6242128247197293599.post-18715245736912599002010-01-25T12:13:28.665-05:002010-01-25T12:13:28.665-05:00I hate waiting so I tend to hoof it over there rig...I hate waiting so I tend to hoof it over there right at open.<br /><br />Only bad experience was I came in once and ate by myself and was seated at a table directly at the front where several people were waiting and just stared at me endlessly while I ate/ordered/ate/ordered.
