Tokyo Fro’s sushi bar

Barb introduced me to Tokyo Fro’s sushi bar several months ago. It was pretty good, but I just haven’t had a chance to go back there. A few days ago Andy suggested sushi for lunch, and Tokyo Fro’s is conveniently close to Sac State, so off we went.

We arrived about 10 minutes before noon. The place was busy, but not packed. The service was pretty slow, which the waitress said was due to our arrival during the middle of the lunch rush. (The place opens at 11:30, so you’d think they’d be expecting people to drop in for lunch, right?) We ordered cucumber salads, which were excellent but took inordinately long to get to the table. We also ordered three sushi rolls:

  • “Godzilla”, outstanding!
  • “Coach T”, pretty tasty, nice complement to the Godzilla roll.
  • “S.O.S.”, which I remembered was very good when my wife and I ate here. Unfortunately, we were served the “G-spot” roll, which was disappointing. (We didn’t find out it was the wrong roll until it was almost gone.)

After visting Tokyo Fro’s with my wife I was pretty happy with them, but if this had been my first experience I wouldn’t come back. I’ll give them one more chance to see if they had an “off” day.

    Yeah, I gotta’ agree the service sucked that day and to be honest the quality wasn’t good enough to merit a revisit from me.

    Barb and I tried Tokyo Fro’s again last night for dinner, and it was pretty good. I don’t know if it was because of time of day, or our waitress, or maybe because Andy wasn’t with me. ;)

    Anyway, we started out with the sunomono (sp?), marinated cucumber salad, which Andy and I also tried. Very good, again. One order was just about right for the two of us to split. We also had the following rolls:

    • S.O.S. (which Andy and I ordered last time, but didn’t get) — very good.
    • Hawaiian, sort of like a California, but rolled in tobiko — excellent!
    • tekka roll, nothing special. :(
