Came in early evening on a Saturday in December. Early enough that it was still reasonably quiet. Seated and served very quickly. We ordered tempura, nigiri and rolls. The entrees came with miso and salad. The miso had little flavor but had a healthy portion of seaweed. The salad had been premade and left in the refrigerator until needed the dressing had settled and water was pooling in the bottom of the bowl.The tempura was delivered hot and fresh (always critical as for me tempura is like french fries and must be eaten hot). Unfortunately, the batter was again bland and too heavy with a very light dipping sauce. The rolls were good portion size, but the quality of the spicy tuna was low - not much spice, too much breading and an erratic coating of rice on the outside of the roll. The salmon roll was also not well put together, but the salmon itself felt clean and fresh.The same was true for the nigiri - nearly every piece of fish had nice flavor and felt clean and fresh. Perhaps because of this, there was no wasabi added to any of the nigiri. The rice was again rather bland, but was put together well enable the nigiri to be eaten with either fingers or chopsticks.Wasabi and pickled ginger were again not the right flavor - the ginger was actually a little sweet - almost candied instead of pickled.Service was good and attentive throughout the meal.Based on other reviews, perhaps I just visited on a bad night. Also, I do have to remind myself, I am talking about sushi in a small town in Maryland not near the coast.In any case, I do not expect to return to find out.

When we pulled up to this restaurant, I was very underwhelmed. I was told that it used to be a "biker bar." (I'm not sure if that is true). It's not elegant, to say the least. It was Christmas eve and the restaurant was busy and very lively with families and couples. The adjoining bar looked busy, too. The menu is eclectic, to say the least. There are several pages of diner type entrees and one page of Thai dishes. We started with 2 dozen raw oysters; awesome. Then, we had some Thai appetizers and each of us had a different main dish. Everyone loved their food. Service was very accommodating and friendly. I can't wait to visit my sister again for a return to this hot spot.

Excellent food and service - usual Chinese offerings but very well prepared....They do not serve wine or liquor - but you can bring your own.. Their vegetable fried rice is outstanding..
