I'm love simple sandwiches, and this place has the best. And sandwiches for $3?! Yes please!! I tried the Grilled Cheese, the Fried Egg and the Fluff & Nutt, all monte cristo style ($1 extra). YUMMY!! My favorite was the grilled cheese and my son loved the fluff & nutt. I will definitely be coming back to this place whenever I'm here. Oh yea... They have curbside pick up too!!

The menus are battered and the new waiter, bless him, had to peer at where I was pointing on the menu to work out what I was asking for when I said "umeboshi" (although maybe that's my quiet voice and poor pronunciation at work) but my, my, that's some good sushi. I ordered the umeboshi (waaaaaa!!! PICKLY!), six salmon and cucumber maki, and two red pepper nigiri, which altogether came to 10.50. Because the maki come in sixes, I think the best way to do it is to go in a group and order a bunch of stuff between you rather than just get one type each. The umeboshi were super-pickled in that face-twistingly sour way - yum! The nigiri and maki were spot on - fresh-tasting, good cohesive rice, sweet and filling. I loved the weeny wasabi rolled into a little teensy blob-ball on the side of my nigiri. Too cute! That little green globe is going to be all I can think of when I hear the words "wasabi pea" from now on. Being technical, I really should give this place three stars, because it's A-OK and I had a fine time here - but it gets a fourth star mostly for the gorgeous manga on the wall. Also, the benches are comfy to sit on.

I waited longer for a table than I would have expected given that the place wasn't quite full. The food was very slow to arrive, as well. The Cajun Shrimp appetizer was decent -- a large portion, served hot, with a tasty dipping sauce. I believe the menu description is inaccurate in that the shrimp itself is not spiced at all. Not to say it's bad, just not what I was expecting. The veggie wrap -- admittedly, not what most patrons are going to order in the land of excess that is Las Vegas -- was awful. The filling was about 95% shredded lettuce, with a few other bits of stuff thrown in for color, and a dressing that was not so much bland as just yucky. I considered sending it back, but it was nearly the only thing on the menu that didn't used to have hooves. By which I mean, I didn't have a lot of vegetarian-ish choices. The service was slow throughout the meal, and the waitress had a habit of timing her drive-bys when I had a mouthful of food and couldn't say anything. As fast as she was moving, you'd think she'd make it back around more frequently, but no. Don't let your drink glasses get empty, as you'll be sitting there thirsty for a while. All that said, the setting is lively, especially later at night when there's a band on stage. I'm not a fan of country or western, but I'd watch just about any good band live. If you're just going for a quick meal, you're better off elsewhere (e.g. next door at Imperial Palace there's a decent homestyle mexican place).
