Sushi-Ten must be doing something right to be voted "Best Sushi" for six years in a row. Belly up to the sushi bar and get an artfully decorated plate of sashimi, or generously thick, melt-in-your-mouth pieces of nigiri, or the ever-popular deep-fried Vegas roll. The fish is fresh and tasty, and for dessert, you can nosh on a bowl of green-tea ice cream. Sushi-Ten also has teriyaki, tempura-fried goodies and other cooked items for those of you who are still a little squeamish about the whole raw-fish thing. Friendly, attentive service makes this crowded sushi joint the best of the bunch.
