Midori


Website: midorisushiaustin.com/
Located in Northwest Austin (on 183 and Anderson Mill).

It's been 3 months and some change since our
last sushi entry.
Basically, we blog our sushi experience everytime
we go to a place we 've never been before.
Since we're on a low budget, one of our main focus is,
to find decent sushi at an affordable price.
So, let's review Midori Sushi.



This place was a little too fancy for us.
But, they gave us a very good presentation.


We sat in the sushi bar and within minutes of ordering,
the sushi chefs got to work on it quickly.
The main chef used a very sharp knife to slice an apple
for the sushi presentation.

Two Favorites:

Midori Boca Raton Roll
(Deep fried roll with smoked salmon,
cream cheese, crab, and special sauce)

Spicy Thai Roll
(Shrimp, jalapeño, cucumber w/ spicy Thai peanut sauce)

The other rolls we tried:

Spicy Tuna Roll


Mango Fandango Roll


Phoenix Roll
Price: $3.50 - $12.00
They have very good specials Mon-Sat from 11am-2:30pm

Comments on sushi:
This was a little expensive.
But, you get what you pay for.
The rolls we tried were awesome except
for the Phoenix Roll.
The Phoenix Roll was a little too fishy.
It was okay, but for the price, should of been a lot better.
Spicy Thai Roll had a nice crunch and kick to it.

Wasabi: Not lethal.

Free Appetizers: You get a nice little bowl of Miso soup.

There's 3 different seating arrangements:
You can sit at the bar, sit in a regular booth or table,
or in an enclosed table booth where you sit lower.

More Comments:
Well, if you're looking for sushi for a special ocassion,
then this could be a decent option.
The staff was nice (just like other sushi places).
The atmosphere was a little cozy, but the music
sucks. We haven't found a sushi place yet where
they play Asian music.
It's out there somewhere.
As for low budget sushi, this wouldn't be a good place
to get sushi.
