Over the last 3-4 years, I've had 3 blind dates at Raku. The dates did not go too well, and I've formed a negative association with this restaurant. Then Anna S. and Wendy took me there for dinner for my last birthday, and a few months ago I went there for dinner with Lisa. Both experiences gave me new and happier memories of this place.
For President's day I met with Radha, Theresa and Adrienne for sushi and jewelry making. The service at Raku was attentive, the atmosphere casual and fun. All of us ordered sushi. I had salmon & avocado roll and a crunchy spicy tuna roll (something my friend Jenn introduced me to a while back). The sushi was good!
Radha was nice enough to let me take a photograph of her shrimp tempura roll: what awesome presentation!

Amazing pictures! I've never eaten these but I start to crave for them right now.
Yum, that all looks delicious!
I must admit, I've only recently decided I like sushi ... but now I want to try more!
Hope you have a great night : )
Raku is one of my favorite restaurants. The shrimp tempura roll rocks....
How come you haven't taken me to Raku? Seriously! My favorite roll is volcano roll from a Dallas restaurant - no other place can match it. It's a california roll topped with scallops and spicy mayonnaise and broiled. A friend described it as an orgasm in the mouth. Enough said.
You have to come to Fairfax to our favorite sushi place - they have the most amazing Golden bridge rolls!
Great pictures!
I love sushis and I've learned to make them. After a few tries they are now pretty good... My favourites among all: salmon sushis and cream cheese rolls!
Great pics - We pretty much eat it all - Love all the fun combo rolls!!
that shrimp sushi looks amazing!
Eating sushi has become a fascination in America, so if people make a fuss over immigrants like Chinese people so why everyone likes to eat sushi and it's one of the most exuberant and eccentric food?
