Was recently visiting friends in Annapolis and they suggested making the short 15 min drive across…read morethe Thomas Johnson Bridge (or what the locals refer to as the Solomons Bridge) into nearby Edgewater to have dinner at Nova. I usually approach suburban sushi joints with a bit of trepidation, but tbh, I had an excellent experience here. Located in a cookie-cutter strip mall, the place was PACKED on a Friday night. The interior could also be described as "any Asian restaurant in America" with tile flooring, dark hardwood furniture, a large sushi bar, and generic art pieces on the wall. We started with an appetizer of Edamame and small bottles of hot sake. The soybeans were steamed in their pods and lightly salted and had that addictive quality which paired well with the slightly sweet and acidic flavor profile of sake. Sushi plate arrived about 10 minutes later, and again for suburb sushi, I was pleasantly surprised. Standouts included: * spider roll - Deep fried soft shell crab is a standard bearer and is a reflection of the sushi chefs skills. Crab had a light batter and wasn't overly oily. * Spicy scallop - Anytime a place advertises a dish as being spicy, my default is it will be "American level spicy." The scallops tasted fresh and didn't have any slimy texture (unlike at some places). Cucumber and tempura bits added a nice crunch; spicy mayo was more sweet than adding any heat. * Wicked Tuna Roll - Actually, quite good. Inside the roll contained spicy tuna, cukes, onions; which was then topped with cuts of tuna and a jalpeno "salsa." All of the contrasting flavors complemented each other. Service was as expected. Wait staff arrived within 3 minutes of initial seating, kept water glasses filled, and frequently stopped by to check on us. If you're out in Edgewater or the Annapolis area and are seeking good sushi, bookmark Nova.

Shika was an amazing discovery in Annapolis. Probably the best sushi I've had in the area. They…read morehave lots of options to choose from. We decided to get the Godzilla, Santa Claus, Cherry Grove and Kiss of fire rolls. All of them were perfect. 10/10. Food was served very quickly. For drinks we tried their Thai Ice Tea which was also very good and sweet. At the end of our meal we got a free piece of cake and it was delicious. The ambience is very cozy and intimate which makes this place even better. I'm glad we went to Shika, I'm sure I'll be back soon.

But it took 15 minutes after being sat to get spoken to + my order taken. Our server apologized for the wait which is appreciated. I'm aware that I am not the only guest in the restaurant, but 15 minutes is wild. The spicy tuna, yellowtail, salmon, and tuna roll were all good. Yellowtail is the best. The miso soup lacks flavor. Everything is reasonably priced!

The table presentation with the round white plates, chopsticks, and packaged wet wipes, along with a large glass pitcher of ice water with the black and red cups elevated the dining experience. The bright Umami Ramen & Dumplings logo and restaurant signage caught our eye right away while in the shopping center. This Japanese restaurant is very clean and inviting. Our server, Linda was friendly and very helpful when we asked which of the Artisan Ramen bowls on the menu she'd recommend. She was right on her recommendation! The Tonkotsu Ramen with chashu (braised pork belly) was hot and delicious. My husband really enjoyed the flavors of the broth, the savory pork belly, and was pleasantly surprised by the corn in the dish. We also ordered the pork soup dumplings and edamame. Both were very good! And I'm a fan of both dishes. Delicious food in a pleasing environment is a win! So happy we found time to enjoy Umami!

This is an average clear broth PHO. It is very traditional and you will get what you expect. I…read moredon't think it is the best Pho in town, but I do have it most times I am in the area because I am a lover of Pho. When I first started coming here it seemed to be managed by Vietnamese but now it appears to be all Latino staffed. Perhaps it changed hands. The quality it still similar, I just appreciate when the ethnicity of the food matches the staff, when possible. But, the staff is friendly and the service is quick. Only thing I don't like is that they are open until 9:PM but it seems if you come after 8:30 they are cleaning up and don't really want to serve you. They should serve until closing time. This is not uncommon in restaurants, but you know... sometimes you really want that bowl of Pho! The search engines list them as OPEN, but they really aren't. I like it and will keep returning. I think we only have 4 Pho places in the Annapolis area (this, Eastport, Severna Park and Davidsonville) so we need to keep them all in business! :)
