Sushi Uokura

Cuisine: Asian, Japanese, Sushi

Price Range: $$

10Best Says

Juxtaposing homespun charm and modern pizzazz, Sushi Uokura breaks out of the mold of typical sushi places. The restaurant is housed in a refurbished cottage and provides a comforting, if somewhat odd, backdrop to stellar sushi. Accept that it's not a fancy Japanese restaurant but revel in the reasonable pricing and laidback setting. Accept that they don't service alcohol. Instead focus on festing on their noodle dishes, sukiyaki, and even steak, but don't forget the sushi. Yellowfin tuna, red snapper, salmon, and Spanish mackerel are cut precisely and crafted into superb rolls that you'll come to crave again and again. Sushi Uokura has something for everyone, but the Golden and the Vegas Roll will keep you coming back.
