51. Soho Eatery

when you walk by this cozy little sushi place, you may not at first realize that it even IS a sushi restaurant. but i walked in, and i was immediately surprised at how well decorated this hole in the wall was. there are a few tables and a little sushi bar. the chef and his wife (it's family owned) immediately greeted me. they were really friendly. when you walk in, make sure you strike up a good conversation with the chef. they'll give you a three menus: ONE WITH NON-SUSHI FOOD. (which I ordered a spicy tofu soup from and was pleased with). my girlfriend got the teriyaki and loved it. she said it was the best she's ever had.; ONE WITH STANDARD SUSHI (skipped) ; and ONE WITH THEIR SPECIAL ROLLS (everything off this menu seemed ordinary sushi restaurant type rolls...but boy was i surprised) I told the chef what kind of sushi i liked. (You should do this too) You should tell him what you tried before, and what you liked, what you didn't like. Then you tell him what you want from the menu...and he will make his versions of them. i guarantee you will love it. Don't bother with the standard sushi menu they have. Don't order a sushi boat like a NEWBIE! And in the end, make sure you try their mango smoothie. It's almost worth going there just for their smoothie!
