This place came highly-recommended by our friends as a decent combination of high-quality sushi, cleanliness and affordability. We agree.
For a neighborhood go-to sushi place this one is a keeper. The service was cheerful and efficient, considering we came with a relatively large group. We enjoyed the hot saki, tempura, sushi, sashimi, and a lettuce salad with savory ginger dressing. One item that seems set Endo Sushi apart from the others - is our friends’ favorite - the Rainbow Roll. The Rainbow Roll resembles a California Roll and gets its name from the alternating colors of wrapped fish. The roll is laid out on a long rectangular plate with a mayonnaise-based accent sauce, which seems to be the house specialty.
As this was our first visit to this restaurant, Elena ordered the plentiful Bento Box to taste the variety that Endo Sushi had to offer. Definitely worth the $27.95. It came with a miso soup, salad, a sashimi appetizer, a nice selection of tempura shrimp and vegetable, sushi, chicken teriyaki, and tofu. An interestingly tasty rice-wrapped ice cream (available in vanilla, green tea, red bean, and strawberry) followed the box for dessert. Bill ordered sushi a la carte and our friends also selected a variety of tempura and sushi. Everyone loved the green tea.
We have been looking for a neighborhood sushi joint that doesn’t disappoint, but doesn’t break the bank, either. This place certainly fits the bill.
One drawback is that this place doesn't have a website, so if you want to check out the menu beforehand (especially useful if you're bringing someone who doesn't eat sushi and wants to consider available alternatives, such as teriyaki or tempura), it can't be done unless you call the restaurant. On the one hand, who doesn't have a website in 2011? On the other hand, a Japanese menu is relatively standard, so a website may not be imperative.
