The Answer to the 'Where Shall We Eat' Question



Are you looking for a new place to eat? Maybe you are looking for a somewhere to eat that isn’t too expensive but has good fresh food?  Or are you looking for a place where you don’t have to dress up but you also don’t have to yell to make yourself heard?  Well, I have just such a place to tell you about today as I’d like to talk about one of my very favorite local restaurants. 

My husband and I don’t eat out much.  Between his schedule and mine, it’s difficult to find time to go out. When we do decide to eat out, we usually have trouble agreeing where to eat.  He’ll want to eat Italian and I’ll want steak. You know how it goes. There is one restaurant, however, that we both agree on and that is usually where we go. 

The restaurant is Sushi King located at 5953 S. Zang Street.  Situated in a little strip mall at Zang and Bowles, it isn’t a fancy place.  Seating is a combination of tables and booths and, of course, the sushi bar. Music plays softly in the background and I’ve never been in there when the noise level was too loud.  The décor is casually accented with some Japanese artwork.

Two things make this place stand out from the average Japanese restaurant.
-First is the staff.  The owners, Ring and Doug, are always pleasant even though it seems like they are always working.  The wait staff is young, friendly and polite which seems to be a rarity these days.
-Second is the food. Prices are average and the menu has quite a bit of variety such as sweet and sour chicken and cashew shrimp.  My husband and I usually get a Bento Box with sashimi and a rainbow roll from the Sushi Bar. The tempura vegetables are consistently good and not oily and the sushi always tastes fresh.  Beer and wine are available, if you're so inclined, as well as regular soft drinks.  Desserts are also available.  One of our favorites is the Green Tea Ice Cream.

If it’s been one of those days when you're too tired to cook or go out, Sushi King does have take-out available.  You can either order it for pick up or have it delivered.  Delivery is restricted to certain areas though so you might want to call the restaurant to see if you are within their delivery area.
