Sushi Party Place

Ai Sushi

Dad and I dropped in to Ai Sushi on Geary in San Francisco one evening, and enjoyed some dinner. We noticed immediately that it was geared more to sake & sushi parties than diners. From the photos on the wall, it looked like there is quite a party crowd enjoying the bright ambiance here.

Salad

My dinner started with a nothing special but OK salad.

Miso

And Dad's started with a warm miso soup, which he liked.

Sunset Roll

The Sunset Roll was really good -- it was essentially a California Roll topped with eel and avocado. This was the most impressive thing we had.

Chicken Teriyaki Bento

Dad enjoyed the Chicken Teriyaki and Tempura Bento box.

Tempura

I had Tempura Zaru Soba. The tempura was served first.

Zaru Soba

Closely followed by the Zaru Soba part of the equation. The Tempura and Soba were fine, but not remarkable. The dipping sauce for the noodles was quite snazzy and inventive as well.
