I would have given this place one star had it not been for the great tasting Miso soup and, the ok…read morespring rolls. The last time we tried to find this place we were unable to, as I thought it had closed down. After checking their website I realised that, it is actually off the side street and, not on Leopoldstr. So we decided to check it out today.
The name of the place is running sushi, however, the sign inside says Japanese and Thai food. We were a little bit early and the conveyor was pretty empty and, I did not see the point of having the "all you can eat" offer which, on Sundays is €18.90 plus drinks. I chose to oder from the a la carte menu.
I ordered a sushi plate which had two rolls (salmon and tuna) and 6 nigiri (tuna, salmon, scallop, prawn, cuttle fish and kingfish). The miso soup was great and packed with flavour. The sushi arrived and looked well presented. However the very first one I had smelled a tiny bit and thought it was odd. I then proceeded to eat the rest and a few others also smelt a bit. The sushi was rolled poorly and packed with way too much rice that was far too sticky. It became immediately obvious that the chefs were better at thai than sushi.
Needless to say I was quite disappointed. I would not come back here again for sushi. I have not been served raw fish that smells ever, and considering I ordered off the menu rather than the buffet, imagine what the running sushi is like ;-)
