If you are looking for a no-frills, inexpensive sit-down sushi experience, Bikkuri is definitely worth a try. Tucked away in the Maitland City Centre apartment complex, Boku sushi is hiding an amazing happy hour secret. Early birds rejoice because their happy hour only runs from pm Monday to Saturday.

The casual, cool, upmarket vibe invites any type of restaurant-goer to come for happy hour, but stay for the chill neighborhood feels. Looking to discover a new sushi joint? This is the place. Another great neighborhood option, located in Winter Park Village, is Sakari Sushi.

And for an added bonus? Their happy hour is every day from 3 to 6pm. Head to downtown Orlando for some great happy hour. Pair it with one of our downtown Orlando date ideas.

Shakai is quite the amalgam of sushi bar vibes. By day it offers a moody interior, and lively spot for families, after-work crowds and bachelorette parties fueling up for the night downtown. At night, it completely flips on its head and becomes a nightclub scene.

How does a bar with such a huge pendulum of characteristics appeal to all audiences? Happy hour. Bring your mom, your best friend or your grandma and all will be welcome.

Kind servers run a well-oiled machine, dishing out bento box dinners and unreal happy hour priced small plates night after night. Enjoy the ornate wood chandeliers and decor around the restaurant.

The scenery is beautiful, the food is delicious, and the prices are fantastic. So what are you waiting for? Technically bordering Lake Ivanhoe and the Ivanhoe Row area, it could also appropriately be considered downtown, as its proximity to many of the downtown apartment complexes is just steps away.

Popular for good reason with the after work crowd, Shin Japanese offers up a select menu of delicious small plates to enjoy before diving into their impressive sushi menu. Located in Thornton park, Ootoya is well located for the downtown crowd. Just steps from Lake Eola, a perfect date night can start at Ootoya and end with a stroll around the lake.

With a seriously impressive list of hot and raw dishes on their happy hour menu, Ootoya knows how to cater to an early bird. From tempura, gyoza, tataki and kobachi, the menu has enough to satisfy any diner without even touching the primary menu.

With a fun outdoor patio and swanky interior vibes, this one is a no brainer for happy hour. Globetrotting since , Maria is a daughter, girl-mom and wife to a Spaniard. She is a karaoke wunderkind, natural born storyteller and creative writer.

One way they can do it is by offering more common seafood such as wild albacore and farm-raised salmon that are, as a bonus, often more sustainable than more expensive species.

This extends to their sushi, which is made during the day on a continuous basis, packaged in protective trays, and deposited in a reach-in case. Sugarfish is a year-old Los Angeles chain that emphasizes high-quality fish.

It arrived here in and now has four branches in Manhattan. Just to the left of the lobby desk in the Hotel Henn-na, as you hurry past the animatronic Tyrannosaurus, find combination sushi bar and tempura parlor Gosuke. This compact, well-lit restaurant offers good quality fish, including some unusual varieties in a more expensive omakase that often make their way into the inexpensive assortments.

This counter at the Olly Olly Market in far west Chelsea specializes in a Korean sushi variant dubbed yubu tarts: lozenges of sushi-grade fish placed atop envelops of tofu skin filled with sushi rice, something like Japanese inari sushi. Mikado was a high volume, no-frills, mainly carryout sushi bar on 6th Avenue in Greenwich Village that moved around the corner onto 14th Street in Chelsea, adding a nicely designed series of dining rooms.

Even on such inexpensive set meals, some very refined pieces of sushi sometimes appear. This modest carryout spot with some comfy seating concentrates on sushi at bargain prices, with few kitchen dishes offered great appetizer fried chicken is an exception.

Unusual for this price point, many of the sushi pieces are pre-seasoned with a marinade, a sear, or a dab of flavored mayo.

Lunch specials of two or three rolls are another highlight. Sushi offers several menu items that deliver value. On a recent visit medium fatty tuna was included, some maki rolls using the same tuna in a spicy mash-up, and a marinated scallop that stole the show.

Off the beaten track near the BQE, this atmospheric sushi bar is a great date spot, and the prices are less than one might expect for very high-quality sushi. The higher priced option contains higher end fish than one might expect.

It is also a full-menu Japanese restaurant with plenty of kitchen options including a splendid broiled yellowtail collar and a very wild list of specialty rolls if you are a maki fan. The Bushniwa, for example, features spicy scallop crunch, smoked yellowtail, and jalapeno sauce.

Located on the edge of the Pratt campus in a gleaming condominium, U-gu partakes of that real estate glamor.

The menu emphasizes a pair of specialties: noodles and elaborate sushi rolls, of which there are over 60 choices, some vegetarian, others wrapped with cucumber.

Stay in the loop with this neighborhood Japanese eatery serving up the usual rolls, tempura and one of our favorites: bento boxes. They even have a Chicken Teriyaki lunch box with chicken, rice, 6 pieces of sushi, miso soup, salad and two orange slices for on the go. The spicy scallop and blue crab rolls here are our favorites.

The tempura in the Fried Shrimp wasn't mushy and the sauce was tangy, nicely complementing the simple flavors of fresh shrimp.

My heart will always go to any sushi roll that is spicy, and the Spicy Salmon does not disappoint. The roll was not too spicy with the spicy aioli carefully drizzled over the smooth salmon and crunchy cucumber.

But, there are times when the salmon-to-cucumber ratio was skewed so that one-piece was a mouthful of cucumber. The rolls were tight for the price, and I acknowledge this.

I'm probably more likely to end up being too lazy to leave campus and end up grabbing sushi from the Blue Room. The fish most of the time tastes fresh enough; I cannot really set high expectations for sushi I have to pick from a fridge. What I ordered: 2 pieces of Tuna nigiri, a California roll, a Slamming Salmon, and a Philadelphia roll.

Hidden right behind the sky-high Sci-Li on Waterman Street is an Asian marketplace called Haruki Express. Haruki is actually a Japanese chain of three locations in Rhode Island: Haruki Express, Haruki Cranston, and Haruki East.

Haruki Express not only offers quick sushi, but it is also a convenience store for Asian snacks and ramen. I did also try Haruki East as it wasn't that far of a walk from campus, but their sushi menus are very similar and so are the prices, which I'll talk about a little later.

The California roll, as one will see for many of these places, had way too much avocado. The crab was disappointing, and there actually wasn't any cucumber in the roll. The Tuna nigiri was good but the cuts were rather thick, and the wasabi that the chef had spread under the cut almost killed me.

I've never had so much wasabi in my mouth at once. And, I actually didn't mind the Philadelphia roll, but it felt mediocre. Although the salmon was dry, the lettuce was lowkey a revolutionary experience for me.

I may have appreciated the textures in this roll, but some of my friends didn't agree. Even though the secret sauce was a standout flavor, I am not sure if I personally would order this roll again due to its overwhelming vegetable texture.

I would probably want to try a roll that has more complexity. What I ordered: Lunch Special of Pick any 3 rolls California roll, spicy salmon roll, and tuna roll which included miso soup. We were pleasantly surprised by Yoo Sushi. This lunch special was a killer price and for that amount of money, I really feel that this place will be the best bang for your buck if you were to get a lunch special, even with a small delivery fee.

The California roll was among the top two that we tried: the avocado ratio was well portioned so that the crab flavor was actually noticeable. We did note that there was some browning with the avocado, but that did not affect the flavor.

Although the tuna roll was not rolled too tightly and the tuna itself was thick with a couple c's , it tasted really fresh.

But, my favorite out of the three would have to be the Spicy Salmon, with just enough spice and a satisfying texture that pair nicely with its breaded crunch.

The miso soup was sharp with flavor and good for a complimentary side dish to help settle the sushi. What we ordered: Maki Combo A California roll, Tekkamaki, and Sakamaki , Tuna Nigiri, Pork Gyoza, Spicy Scallop Roll, Spicy Tekka.

The restaurant version of Haruki Express was right down Wayland Avenue near Whole Foods. The restaurant was nicely snug on the corner surrounded by quaint storefronts at just a minute walk from campus. When my friends and I walked in, we all gave a soft sigh: Haruki East would be such a cute date spot.

With a similar menu as its Express counterpart, there were definitely more appetizer and entree options if you were in the mood for something other than sushi. We did note that there were more complex and specialty rolls offered at Haruki East than we remembered from Express.

The bill ended up being more expensive than the other places, but it was simply because we ordered a lot more food; the sushi itself was totally affordable especially considering we went for dinner. The salmon roll came with scallions which, although we didn't think was bad, added more so just an extra texture.

The same complaints came from the California roll as its Express counterpart. The Tuna roll was one of our favorites of the night due to the quality of its craftsmanship alongside the freshness of the tuna.

Tuna nigiri, just like at Express, was a thick cut, but there was no secret weapon wasabi hidden inside this time. The scallop and sauce combo were fresh, creamy, and smooth. My friend also ordered the Spicy Takki, and although she believed the overall roll had a good balance with the cucumber adding a nice crunch, she settled on the avocado ratio being slightly off.
