Re: Gaijin Sushi Review Thread
OK, so Its probably tacky for me to post in my own thread, but I'm doing it anyway. I went to Gaijin tonight. They are open for dinner, and they were pretty crowded. They didn't do a soft opening and they did WAY more business than they expected. The big problem was the single waitress. It seemed the whole staff was getting pissed at her.
That said, the location is awesome. When you're in there, you get a great view of some pretty nice looking parts, with no eyesores. Its pretty trendy in there, and I think they have a ton of potential.
Lastly, for fish quality, average. I only eat nigiri, so I can't speak to the quality of the rolls. Unfortunately, average is about as good as I've had here in OKC (and I'm not one to knock OKC, its just probably hard to get great fish here). Its certainly better than the crap they serve at sushi neko, and probably on par with Fuji in Edmond. I haven't been to Tokyo on Western, though I've heard they blow everyone out of the water.
Overall, definitely a good experience. $30 a/i. Sushi ain't cheap, and you don't want it to be. It will definitely do much better the RAW, because the location is nice, the inside is inviting, and the service will improve.
CBD needs more restaurants to take a chance like this, and stay open past 5PM.
