Over the years I've gone from never having sushi to being a sushi
fanatic. Happy hours have always been a great time for me to get my
"fix" but no place has wowed me like the Sake Social at Uchiko. From 5-6:30pm each day you can try a variety of Uchiko's signature
flavors for under $6. Two of the hand rolls tried were HUGE and came
with a sauce pairing that was simply amazing. The "crunchy spicy tuna
hand roll" was full of flavor and texture, not to mention a little
heat, and had an amazing chili sauce. The "p-38" was just as
delicious. Not going to describe the flavor as you have to try it to
understand it. Some of the smaller snack items were equally delicious. Take the
"kakiage" which is a tempura fried sweet potato fritter served with
chili sauce. Worth getting your fingers a bit greasy grabbing a taste
of these. So much for only $3. The item that took me my surprise was the "gyutan nigiri", lightly
grilled beef tongue with yuzu kosho on white rice, with so much flavor
and so tender! For two big pieces it was $3. So good I had it twice! The staff here is amazing gracious and attentive. Try the Tamara
nigori sake also for $3 for what they call a "samurai" pour. Big and
in a box. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. See you at the bar!
