We went out with our friends Emily and Seth (and Kailey) to Banbu Sushi, a fairly new place on Fletcher Parkway (http://www.banbusushibarandgrill.com/). Our evening did not start off well.
You see, Em had called and made reservations, but when we got there they told us that they do not accept reservations, so we would have to wait about 30 minutes. OK, we were all pretty pissed, but we found some seats at the bar (yes, with Kailey) and ordered some sake and eda mame.
But the night started getting better, as they realized someone they blew it, so they got us seated quickly, and brought our eda mame and sake to us. And from then on, everything was great. We had a very nice server, who was so sweet, and the food was quite good. We had rolls and maguro and unagi. We had too much sake, but it was good too.
The place is very busy, but has a happening atmosphere, good for people watching. Nice decor, with a beautiful outdoor courtyard.
They accepted Emily's 40% off coupon (on food AND drink) and at the end, the manager came over and apologized for the beginning of the evening, and they gave each couple a 10% off card for our next visit. So they really tried to make up for the poor start. I like to think it is because they heard me say I would mention this in my blog, but that is just me-HA!
We would definitely go back to Banbu Sushi Bar and Grill.
