Tokyo Sushi

First, let me admit that my rating is a little bit biased as a function of how I eat. You see, a few years ago, I decided to cut out any food that was not typical of foods that existed before the advent of agriculture. It's been good for me, but I'm a huge pain at restaurants these days. 

So yeah, half the food at most restaurants don't work for me - a fact that tends to often make wait staff confused. Today, I got the sashimi box. What a meal! It came with a salad, miso soup, a big pile of rice, California roll, some raw fish, deep-fried sweet potatoes, fried dumplings, and more! Of course, the problem is this: I don't eat half that stuff! What I did eat was fabulous! And I feel bad that the waitress thinks I didn't like the meal because half of it (e.g., the big pile of rice) was fully untouched. Hey, I'll admit, I'm a pain at restaurants these days!

This said, Tokyo Sushi on Main Street in New Paltz is one of these places where you cannot go wrong. With inside and outside seating, helpful and efficient wait staff, and great food at great prices, this restaurant is something of a go-to place for many people in our town. 

One thing I would change about this restaurant is this: They should bring back the hibachi dinners!!!

I have been a cautious sushi lover for most of my teenage years - I love a good California Roll (with no avocado...(embarrassing, I know..)) And then I discovered Tokyo Sushi's chicken teriyaki rolls. What a genius concept, if you ask me. For years after this enlightening discovery, I have looked for this roll at the multitude of sushi restaurants, and still have yet to come across this delicious roll anywhere else. 

I would genuinely not recommend getting sushi anywhere else, or any other kind of roll. If you like sushi and chicken teriyaki, please do yourself  a favor and get a roll at Tokyo, you will never want any other sushi again.
