Q: My friends from North and South Carolina were craving for sushi so the seven of us decided to stop by Sushi Kim on our way to a business reception. This restaurant is Korean operated with a wide range of Korean and Japanese dishes to choose from. Although the location seemed desolate by the time we got there, the interior was spacious and festive with mini barbecue grills and bento boxes highly visible at every table. I was skeptical about the quality of either cuisine but in support of my friends I eventually chimed in with a 10-piece mixed nigiri with miso soup and mango sorbet for dessert ($41 w/tax and tip).

Among the nigiri sets, I thought the sake, ikura, and uni were decent but not fantastic or super fresh. The miso was too salty and the double scoops mango sorbet was generous but did not create a spark. With a versatile menu and spacious seating arrangements, this could be a decent place for large group gatherings. However, as someone who is spoiled rotten with fantastic Asian food from California, I thought the quality of sushi was rather bland for the price they were charging.

In short, this is how they measured up on a scale of 1-5 stars:

1.) Quality and freshness: 3 stars, everything was decent but the wow factor was missing.
2.) Creativity and presentation: 3 stars, the cuts of the fish were generous and nicely presented.
3.) Quantity and substance: 2.5 stars, the flavors were weak, unimpressive but passable.
4.) Accessibility and affordability: 2 stars, the price was very steep for the little amount of sushi I got.
5.) Service and ambiance: 4 stars, our server was unresponsive at times but the ambiance was clean and festive.

With some reluctance, 3 stars for the overall experience. I won't be coming back.
A:
3 stars
