After a busy Saturday, my wife and I decided to have a Sushi night at a place we have never visited before. Tsugoi is close to where we live so we decided to give it a try. First off, they actually have some parking, which was one of our deciding factors in checking out a place. They were well staffed, so we were able to get service right away once we were seated. Liked the ambiance....music was at a good level to support conversation without having to speak loudly - tables are a comfortable size to accommodate 2 adults, a child and associated "stuff" with no issues. We had the crab fingers appetizer - good taste, not heavy as some can be - I had the Tiger roll (tempura roll) and Maguro Especial (with a Pineapple chutney topping) and my wife had the Samurai. The verdict - all were very good - tasted fresh, each roll was good portions with good flavor. I liked that their sauces were not overpowering and the rice was cooked to the correct consistency. The tempura was light and tasty, not over done. Overall, this has proved to be a nice alternative for good sushi that is not over the top expensive. A quality product that represents a good value for someone looking for a nice sushi dining experience.
