Wow!
This place has a ton of potential, giving it 5 stars with the preface that it has places where it can improve.
Meal Time: Lunch ~1:30pm
Meals Tried:
Chicken Katsu Curry (a Japanese style curry with crunchy breaded and fried chicken)
BBQ Eel Nigiri
Salmon Nigiri
Tuna Nigiri
Tamago Nigiri (a Japanese style semi sweet folded omelet served on top of a bed of rice in Nigiri style)
Quality of ingredients:
Excellent, the fish was very tender, fresh, and flavorful. The eel was extremely tender and slightly crispy from cooking (best BBQ eel I have had). The Chicken was labeled as free range and I believe them, great quality and cooked very very well. The rice was flavorful and pleasing.
Quality of cooking:
Great, the curry was very well done and a generous portion without loosing to much quality. Personally a smaller portion would be fine but the locals may have a different taste. The sushi was very good, well served and made. The Tamago was super tasty, loved it. The mayonnaise was very airy and mild, may be made in house, not sure.
Critique:
The chefs could find room for improvement in their sushi rice. It was not warm when served and could have been packed looser, the rice itself has potential but I would have been blown away instead of just impressed if the sushi was served on a finger warm, looser bed of rice. Readers do not be swayed by this critique you will love the place, and I am certain they will only improve with love :)
Owners:
Looked to be family owned husband-wife-daughter combo but I could be very wrong, when I was there the two women were in the back cooking up their magic while the man served tables (all very friendly).
Experience: 9/10 super great would recommend, I am just traveling through so I am not sure I will ever be back but if I do find myself in the area again Miko sushi will be one of my first stops :)
Price: As these things go it was very affordable, plenty of belly filling options and if your a sushi lover you wont be disappointing either. (could spend $20 if sushi buff, $14 if you just want to eat a delicious meal)
Oh and its BYOB (beer spirits free ,2$ for wine, awesome!) read more
