Sushi

[dioscorides]

my wife and i like yokozuna.  if we aren't wanting to spend as much money, we go to sushi train.  the sushi place (downtown) and asahi (71st/memorial) are good and reasonably priced, as well.

Yokozonnnnnnno - 3.0 out of 5.0
Ashahi - 3.5 out of 5.0
Sushi Train 2.0 out of 5.0 for quality
Fuji - 3.5 out of 5.0
Memories of Japan (BA) 4.0 out of 5.0
Flying Fish - 4.5 out of 5.0

Seriously, as far as consistently good (for Tulsa or OKC)?  ITR. 

Ironically, that's the only sushi place in town I've ever gotten sushi I didn't like. At least the service is better than what I've gotten at Fuji. Four times I've been there (don't ask), and four times the service has been awful. It's been a while since I've been to Tei Kei's, but they've usually been pretty good to me. Sushi Train is a better value, though.

For value and quality, Sushi place downtown.  I'm glad that there is an not upscale sushi rest.  Check out their facebook page as they have really good day of the week specials.

Tei keis is pretty good or it was a year ago. Will have to try the place downtown.

I like "the sushi place" downtown. Priced better than Yokizuno, quick and friendly service and it has an urban feel to it. The sashimi cuts are a nice size too.

What I mean to say is that only rubes think that sushi is something new and special and has to be upscale.  It's just food.  I'm glad to see a place that doesn't feel like it needs to play house music and have trendy lighting (or pretend like it is in Japan) to serve sushi.  That and it's cheap (relatively) and the people who run the place are nice.

Bill and Ruth's at 31st and Yale is the best sushi value in town - however, the hours are not reliable in the evening.  Sushi train is not great, but good and they deliver for a reasonable price.  Been a while since I've been to ITR, but it was always good.  Yokozuna is the goods - some very different rolls that are tasty.  I don't BA often, but when I do, I have Memories of Japan.   I hear good things about The Sushi Place, may try it this weekend.

Sorry, Yale:)

Okay, curiosity is piqued.  Must try.  What do you recommend off the menu?

Oh, and for what it's worth, for really great eating at home, FMC and I will split a raw tuna steak on a bed of rice lightly drizzled with a sauce she makes with sesame oil, soy sauce, lime, and agave nectar.

They have most standard issue rolls and some revolving house rolls - no big surprises.  I rarely get Sashimi anywhere. Menu has descriptions. There is a little sushi station inside with like 4 stools to watch as it is prepared.  Really nice family that runs the place.  I like rolls with the spicy crab and eel sauce. If you get at least 3, there is a lower per role rate.  Do get the Dragon Balls appetizer(fried rice balls with spicy crab on top).
