My partner and I always pass by Summer Fish and Rice whenever we go on our walks. We decided to try it out on Aug. 3, 2023, and it turned out to be an exceptional dining experience. We visited during their lunch hours (11:30 am - 2:30 pm), and we were immediately sat at the sushi bar, in front of the chefs.
I went for their lunch combo set, which was priced at $29 (available for dine-in customers only). I went with the Crispy rice and a chirashi bowl.
My partner ordered a "Lunch Early Catch", a part of their lunch specials. He went with Origami Sashimi, since he has a gluten intolerance. As soon as he got his dish, he noticed that there was some sauce on it. Before we could ask what it was, the sushi chef asked if everything was okay. My partner asked what the sauce was, and he was avoiding gluten due to his intolerance. The chef, without a question, graciously took back the plate. They immediately remade his dish to accommodate his dietary needs.
What impressed us the most, apart from the delicious and fresh food, was the level of service we received. The staff was attentive, friendly, and the sushi chefs were VERY understanding. It's not every day that you come across such exceptional service, and it left a lasting impression on us.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at "Summer Fish and Rice" and will undoubtedly be returning for more delightful meals. Highly recommended!
