Another sushi joint! Jus over that next hill.: Why is everyone having the same problem with Sushi Island?I invite all the Bold and Adventurous to try Sushi D. it's automatically on my good list because they have "fancy schmancy" rolls on their all-you-can-eat menu. Usually all-you-can-eat Japanese is filled with the fairly boring typically standard Japanese food items. At Sushi D, pretty much everything on their ala carte menu is available for all-you-can-eat. SCORE!You must try the spicy scallop roll especially on a hot humid day. It somehow has a refreshing cool taste. You're probably thinking I'm speaking crazy, but you'll know exactly what I mean when you have this roll.One of the other items I thoroughly enjoyed was the rock shrimp. It was deep fried to a perfect crispy and tossed in some kind of garlic sauce. Deep fried and garlic are also known as my lovers. Hence why, I devoured the shrimps without taking a breath of air.The staff was friendly and helpful - they made suggestions when we were in a stump. The decor is cute, but classy. The restaurant is intimate. And the food is creatively tasty.A must to try menu:- Treasure island 3 orders - Tuna Tatataki (beautiful presentation) - Rock Shrimps 3 orders - Teriyaki beef stuffed with Japanese mushrooms. -Tempura Ice Cream with Kahlua coffee liquor.I guess this place is for people that don't understand Sushi Island on College (like me)Great competitor for Sushi Island. Sushi D is definitely a joint I'll be checking out again!

Sushi D

Best AYCE sushi joint on the College strip: Sushi D is automatically on my good list because they have "fancy schmancy" rolls on their all-you-can-eat menu. Usually all-you-can-eat Japanese is filled with the fairly boring typically standard Japanese food items. At Sushi D, pretty much everything on their ala carte menu is available for all-you-can-eat. SCORE!You must try the spicy scallop roll especially on a hot humid day. It somehow has a refreshing cool taste. You're probably thinking I'm speaking crazy, but you'll know exactly what I mean when you have this roll.We also tried an "interesting" roll - it consisted of mango, cream cheese, cucumber and salmon. And this invention would have be great, if the cream cheese chunk was smaller in proportion.One of the other items I thoroughly enjoyed, but don't think my friends shared the same sentiment was the rock shrimp. It was deep fried to a perfect crispy and tossed in some kind of garlic sauce. Deep fried and garlic are also known as my lovers. Hence why, I devoured the shrimps without taking a breath of air.The staff was friendly and helpful - they made suggestions when we were in a stump. The decor is cute, but classy. The restaurant is intimate. And the food is creatively tasty.A must to try menu:- Treasure island 3 orders - Spicy salmon maki 24pc - Rock Shrimps - Teriyaki beef stuffed with Japanese mushrooms. -Tempura Ice Cream with Kahlua coffee liquor.I guess this place is for people that don't understand Sushi Island on College (like me)Great competitor for Sushi Island. Sushi D is definitely a joint I'll be checking out again!
