I sometimes miss the sushi dining options I had when I lived in Manhattan. I had my favorite sushi delivery place, my favorite 50% off for dining in sushi place, the place I lost my sushi virginity to, and oodles of other options. Now, Tacoma is no slouch when it comes to sushi (Twokoi, Sushitama, Fujiya, etc.), but less sushi shops equals more expensive sushi for all. This is all the more reason why I'm thrilled that Gari of Sushi has opened for business once more. It's not that Gari is less expensive than other local sushi joints. It's that their rolls are so spectacular you don't even bat an eye at the price!
We made our triumphant group return to Gari for a friend's birthday dinner. I don't miss the old McDonald's yellow-and-red paint job. The new dining area that replaced the tatty old bar is really lovely. The new menu is free of poor typos and full of mouthwatering pictures of special rolls. Do not miss the Geisha Roll or the Tokyo Rose roll! They are as heavenly to look at as they are to eat! I was able to fill up on as much plum wine as I wanted (and still be able to walk out unassisted).
If you love raw fish - or are an adventurous foodie - please visit Gari of Sushi. You won't be disappointed.
