Shiki Sushi

Heading home on a Sunday night, looking for the first Japanese restaurant we find along Ventura Blvd. Kevin pointed out Shiki Sushi. As we entered the parking complex, and seeing the small lights every homeowner brings out during Christmas, and the busy restaurant, I had the gut feeling to back up and pick another one.

We pushed through and the waitress sat us in a corner table by the window, which would have been the best seat hadn't it been for the drum music playing in the background. Soon enough I can hear the noisy chatter at this bigger than usual sushi joint, and my head started to throb.

Combination plate - Calamari and Chicken Terriyaki at $12.95 comes with spicy tuna, salad and bowl of rice.
Salmon skin cut roll - $4.00
Eel and cucumber cut roll - $4.00
Dynamite - $9.95

Prices are expensive due to the portions. Dynamite was a whole plate full, the salmon skin roll crumbling into pieces and calamari seemed to come from a giant squid. Maybe I had a headache, but I felt that I was eating in an American restaurant serving Japanese style food. One good thing about western restaurants, every one seemed to go home with to go boxes.

Total bill including tip - $45.00
