We…read moresampled some incredible appetizers like Argentinian shrimp & Ahi Tuna nigiri, HOMEMADE brioche toast with brown buttered Shitake mushrooms, Crab cakes & mussels steamed in a Vietnamese curry (sublime!). For main courses we opted for the braised beef cheeks & the Berkshire pork chop. Both wonderful, served with an array of farm fresh vegetables. Not sure what more you need except a nice wine & some fabulous house-made desserts: Raspberry Yuzu cheesecake & Molten Lava cake. WOW!!!

We had been wanting to check out Rustica since we walked by them a few months ago and we decided to…read morefinally come check them out for our anniversary. We made an early reservation since we saw they do Happy Hour 4PM to 5:00PM everyday so we had to get in on that. We walked and and were seated at our table. They made sure to let us know you can sit anywhere during Happy Hour and still get the specials where many restaurants limit it to a bar area. Rustica does a great job of Happy Hour. They have appetizers, cocktails, beer, Sake, wine, and even main course happy hour entrees too. I started off with a cocktail going for the Liliko Martini which I really enjoyed. I have really been into my Passion Fruit drinks lately. We of course had to get some of the Happy Hour appetizers too and we might have gone a little overboard but for sure worth it. We got: The Naan Bread Yellow Beet Salad Crispy Tofu Roasted Pork Belly Bao Crispy Pork and Shrimp Lumpia Japanese Style Fried Chicken These were a great way to start off dinner and not one of them were $8 or less. If I had to pick favorites the best was for sure the Roasted Pork Belly Bao. I think it might have been the best Pork Belly Bao I had ever had. I was a large thick piece of Pork Belly but it just melted you your mouth and had so much flavor. We also very much enjoyed the Crispy Pork and Shrimp Lumpia which were much bigger then expected. The Japanese Style Fried Chicken was great too and the BBQ Ranch took it to the next level. For my entree I went with the Basil Crusted Roasted Monkfish which came with Vietnamese Yellow Curry, Crispy Shrimp and veggies. The Monkfish was cooked perfectly. I had a great sear on it too which gave it a bit of a crunch. I know Monkfish can sometimes be intimidated people because it was pretty ugly looking but let me tell you if it's prepared like this you're going to love it. Some of the best fish I have had. The Vietnamese Yellow Curry paired very well with it too. Wasn't too heavy and didn't over power the fish but just added an extra boost of flavor. I know what you're thinking who could was possibly be hungry for dessert but it sounded good so we ordered the Thai Milk Tea Creme Brulee and the Yuzu Cheesecake. Both were light enough that we could still really enjoy them after all we had eaten. We really like that the Thai Milk Tea Creme Brulee also had bubble boba in it which we didn't expect. We had an amazing meal and for sure be coming back sooner rather then later.

Over the weekend we made another stop at Nori, and this time we decided to start with one of our…read morefamily's all-time favorite appetizers, Crab Rangoon. To be completely honest, it was the best we have had in a very long time. Our family takes Crab Rangoon seriously. Over the years we have probably ordered it in more than a thousand restaurants, and according to my mother, I have been eating it since the moment I could chew. One thing that immediately stood out at Nori was that they do not cut corners on the ingredients. The balance between the cream cheese and the crab was absolutely perfect, which is surprisingly rare. Too often restaurants overload the cream cheese and you can barely taste the crab. At Nori, the crab flavor actually shines through, which is exactly how it should be. The texture was just as impressive. Each piece was perfectly fried, light, crispy, and golden without being greasy. You could tell right away that the kitchen takes real pride in how they prepare their food. For anyone who loves Crab Rangoon the way our family does, this appetizer alone is worth the visit. The Culinary Duo officially gives it two very enthusiastic thumbs up. If you stop by Nori, make sure this is the first thing you order.

Hubs & son love wings. I do not. They're messy, and I don't usually like to eat chicken skin…read more Bonchon may have changed my mind. Visiting my son & DIL this past weekend, both of my son's dining suggestions were wing-focused. But my vegetarian DIL (she eats some seafood) seemed to be more interested in Bonchon than the other potential spot, so I took her side to make our choice. I can usually find something to eat on any menu, in spite of my immature palette, and Bonchon was no exception. In fact, there are several other things I want to try now! We started with the Korean Cucumber Salad & Bao Buns with Pork Belly. No one that knows me will be surprised that the cucumber salad was much too hot for me. But here is something unexpected... I loved the cole slaw on the Bao Bun, and the sauces were complementary enough that the spice level was fine for me. I would definitely order the Bao Buns again, and try the other meats. For my meal, I ordered the Bibimbap with Bulgogi, and really enjoyed it. Their marinated beef was very tasty, and of course I love an egg on just about anything. Another (non)shock, I did not care for the Bibimbap Sauce because it was rather hot; I appreciated that it was served on the side. Hubs said the mushrooms & caramelized onions were very good, but I didn't eat either. Then I tried a Classic Crunch drumstick, and fell in love! Yes, I bit into it like y'all do, and ate the skin, too. What a delicious piece of chicken! I didn't even need a dipping sauce (& I can't remember what the boys chose anyway). My son insisted that I'd enjoy a Korean BBQ wing also, and I'm sure I would, but I was already getting full. Next time! Also for my next visit, my DIL got a Mopo Corndog as her appetizer (though she also ate a lot of the cucumber salad), and it looked amazing! The name was confusing (to me), but there is no hot dog inside, so I want to try one. Fried mozzarella & potato cubes! They have two versions, so of course I want to try both; although I'm rather skeptical about the sugar-cinnamon coating, I'm anticipating an unexpectedly delicious bite. Service was fantastic, although they weren't very busy yet on this Saturday evening. Our server was very attentive & friendly, and none of us waited for a new drink or refill. My son & DIL evidently visit often, so I'm sure we'll return. I wish we had a Bonchon location closer to us!

We started with the sampler appetizer, which is a great way to experience multiple flavors at once. The crab rangoon and coconut shrimp were standouts, both perfectly prepared. Susan ordered her favorite Tom Kha soup, which has a noticeable spice level and a depth of flavor that keeps us ordering it every time. As sushi lovers, we were especially excited for the rolls. The Tiger Roll completely exceeded expectations and earned our Best of the Best designation. That is something we reserve for truly exceptional dishes. The Tropical Roll was also impressive, with a unique combination of spicy scallops, mango, and white tuna. Service is friendly and engaging, and while the robot server adds a fun touch, it can be a bit distracting during quieter moments. If you enjoy high quality sushi and a polished atmosphere, this is a place you will appreciate.

Granted they do serve…read moremore than the regular AYCE menu for the other days such as more sushi rolls, sashimi and other items. The decor was nice and clean and the service was okay having multiple servers which can be quite excessive. I ordered the following: Sashimi - Tuna, Surf Clam, Ebi (Shrimp), Smoked Salmon, Yellowtail, Salmon, White Tuna, Octopus and Scallop. All tasted fresh and good. Shrimp Tempura Hand Roll (the cone sushi) - fresh, tasty and good to eat. Tokyo Roll - California roll w/spicy krab, crunchy, eel sauce on top. Fresh and good. Damon Special Roll - shrimp tempura, snow krab wrapped w/ soy paper and eel sauce. Good, however quite a lot of rice. Red Dragon - shrimp tempura, cucumbers, spicy tuna, spicy mayo and eel sauce. Fresh and delicious. Krab Rangoon - cream cheese, krab, green onions. Very flavorful and good, but a bit too sweet for me. Overall, it was good, however it seemed as if there was no flavor in the sushi rice which is imperative in sushi. Normally, you'll taste a bit of rice vinegar and slight sweetness, but it was quite unflavored. Other than that, everything else was good.

The restaurant is clean with decent amount of tables & seats, they also offer high chairs for toddlers. Kids 2-8 eat for free. 3 toddlers came with us so we were asked to pay for 1 one of which I think is reasonable. Gratuity is automatically added for a group with over 6 people. Food is as good as any other sushi/hibachi place. Sashimi is unfortunately only available during dinner service. No dessert on lunch menu. Cute hand roll presentation. Getting the steak bites (beef noodles) or steak side is probably the best part of my meal. As a starting restaurant, Tsunami definitely has a lot of room for improvement. When we walked in nobody's waiting at the entrance counter, just a sign please wait to be seated. We came in at lunch time, we waited about 5 minutes before someone took drinks order and then maybe 10 more mins for our entrees. The usual AYCE strategy. So make sure not to visit when you're in a hurry or dying to start eating cause even soup appetizers take time. Overall, $16.99 for a variety of food is not that bad.
