super meh. fish: 3 stars
markedly better than grocery store sushi.
service: 2 stars
staffed exclusively by the most attractive college girls they can find. most of the time they don't give a damn... at all. they very frequently get my order wrong.
other menu items: 1 star
what other menu items? seriously though, while the other menu items aren't rancid, they aren't worth paying for either.
decor: 5 stars
there are lots of shiny things and blue lights in the establishment. it is staffed with lots of attractive women that don't care about your order at all. however, it would be wrong of me not to award them the 5 stars for what is seemingly the only thing they care about.
price: 2 stars/ 4 stars ( sitting at sushi bar)
they have been the only sushi game intownfor years and they know it. you pay for this too, but its a far cry from highway robbery. it is worth mentioning that you get a free kani salad, baked mussel app., and tempura oreo desert if you sit at the sushi bar. this is awesome. the only drawback is that you might actually have to literally fight someone to get a seat. it is also worth mentioning that your very nice,attractive, wildly inattentive waitress will be expecting a huge tip.
lasting impressions: oh were they ever lasting. after eating here at least ten times, i just can't bring myself to do it anymore. there are so many better places to eat sushi elsewhere and so many better options for cuisine in athens. i'll have to try utage at some point but i hear it is owned by the same people.
