Numa Sushi, itadakimasu
Eating Japanese food is usually an expensive endeavor. Whether you get yours from a supermarket refrigerator or sit down at a restaurant these little pieces of raw fish encased in rice can put you into the poor house if you're not careful(exponentially more with the latter). Numa on 18th St is no exception to this but even with the premium that comes with the sit down option we think it's worth it here.
So all things considered these bento boxes are a pretty good deal. The tempura portion comes with 2 pieces of shrimp, broccoli, mushroom, and sweet potatoes. I wished there were a few more non veggie pieces but everything tasted great. The ginger salad dressing was very good, sometimes you can run into a watery problem with this dressing but no problems here. The 3 cali roll sushi pieces were good as well but the fried gyoza lacked filling. [7/10]
Well made rolls with good quality fish. I didn't think the plating was all that attractive but you can judge for yourself [7/10]
Japanese beer + sushi = heaven.
Overall LTE score [7.5/10] One of our favorite sit down sushi places that doesn't completely break the bank but also serves quality product within a modern, clean space. Doesn't hurt that a portion of their profits go to help a kenyan orphanage which the owner helps support.
