About the restaurant
Sushi Rock is a combination of love, passion and perspective. It is the love to eat good food and drink well while doing so with great people. In providing the place for people to do this, Sushi Rock represents the perspective that both can be done in a fun and entertaining environment full of energy. Sushi Rock embodies the opportunity to be the local watering hole, the destination, the cozy meet-up place, the big group place or the special event place. Whatever the patrons needs, we believe Sushi Rock is the one place where everyone can feel comfortable in any size group sharing themselves, sharing a drink, and/or sharing good food.

Table service was very slow but the staff was very friendly. It was not very busy but they still seemed to be understaffed. It was clean and overall an enjoyable time but everything from our first drink orders to the check took 20-30 minutes longer than they should have from the time we requested them.
