The atmosphere was quiet and pleasant,<br \/>\nthe service swift and deft. Although the television over the bar could be<br \/>\nclearly seen, the staff had turned the sound OFF &#8211; bless them forever!  I<br \/>\nfound the chicken teriyaki satisfactory &#8211; I enjoyed the smoky grilled<br \/>\nflavor &#8211; but my tonkatsu was dry, though pretty to look at. Tonight I<br \/>\ndiscovered that I don&#8217;t like tonkatsu sauce. I brought home a *huge* order<br \/>\nof tempura for my daughter, who gave me a slice of the eggplant; good flavor<br \/>\nbut somewhat over-greasy. The miso soup was light and savory, not oversalted.<br \/>\nI will definitely go back for a sushi dinner.  On an impulse, I ordered a<br \/>\npair of yellowtail sushi &#8211; at $3.50, why not?  It was delicious.  I&#8217;m not a<br \/>\nconnoisseur of sushi, but this was sufficiently well-made to arouse my<br \/>\ninterest in trying again. The fish was beautiful, tender, and the entire<br \/>\ndish had a wonderfully clean, fresh flavor. The pickled ginger was a nice<br \/>\ntouch; I wish they had served some more with the tonkatsu.<br \/>\nUnlike you, I *am* a fan of vegetables and sorely missed their presence at<br \/>\nTsuri Sushi; three baby carrots and a broccoli sprig just aren&#8217;t enough for<br \/>\nme. Next time we&#8217;ll just add a vegetable dish to our order.<br \/>\nMichaele Maurer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reader Michaele Maurer wrote me about her own experience at Tsuru Sushi, a small Japanese restaurant in downtown restaurant that I wasn&#8217;t particularly thrilled with.
