Catch Roll

The third appetizer to arrive was the Catch roll, consisting of crab, salmon and miso-honey (and also some jalapenos on top):

M's take: The roll was pretty good and nicely flavored, but didn't seem like anything out of the ordinary to me. I liked the clean flavors and the high quality of the ingredients, but it seemed like something you could also get at other good sushi places.

A's take: This was an okay roll. As far as sushi rolls go, though, it was something that we probably could have gotten at any other sushi place we frequent. The fish was nice and fresh, and the jalapeno pepper provided a nice heat and some nice flavor. Everything was high quality, but it was still nothing overly special.

We thought this roll would be the last appetizer in our "first set" and that the others would trickle in slowly afterwards, but we were incorrect. Shortly after the roll arrived, the last 2 appetizers came, leading to the issue we described in our first post. Here's the roll just after nearly being crushed by the calamari bowl:


It doesn't look too bad until you realize that was, for the most part, our entire table. Considering that they recommend ordering several appetizers, it seems like inconsistent planning to then have such narrow tables.

Generally, the Catch roll was pretty good. But it just didn't land as high on our rankings as some of the other more "special" offerings.
