This is the best sushi I've had in a while. Granted, it's not an area I have a lot of experience in, but I will definitely go back to this place. It's reasonably priced and the ambiance is nice...good for a date or a casual meal. You be the judge, but Kanoyama has my vote.
I went back and I have to say I was kind of disappointed. It's a pretty expensive place, so I expected more consistency. The tuna in my role tasted more metallic than I would like and the avocado wasn't quite ripe. The rice wasn't adding anything either, which was a huge surprise since last time it was unusually enjoyable.
The selection of fish is huge though (say hello to Japanese mackerel)and still very fresh.
I had high hopes for Kanoyama, based on their menu offerings and price point. However, the sushi didn't live up to my expectations. The fish was fresh, but not melt-in-your-mouth delicious. And the rolls that came with my sushi deluxe, had too much rice! I think I just prefer less rice with all my rolls, but here there was so much, I could hardly taste the fish.
I recently got a haircut from a Japanese woman who swore by this place, but only at the sushi bar. She said the chefs are very good and will make the best selections for you, although it may get pricey. It's definitely worth a second try and I'm thinking, I'll sit at the bar.
