Now I live in the valley and I don't get to go there as often as before. However, it hasn't really changed too much. The price is reasonable and the quality of the fish is usually good. Noshi himself is still hands on and can be seen scurrying around in the kitchen taking care of business behind the scenes.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17358275006502659991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17425347.post-83731837119308790942006-12-16T03:22:00.000-08:002006-12-16T03:22:00.000-08:00Bernard said...

Thanks to Jess/Sa I have eaten there at least 10 times over the past 3 or 4 years. One hot tip: get there before closing and they seem to serve extras like soup without charging. In other words, they seem to be unloading the food on you. Regardless --- great food. <br /><br />miso soup and green tea are always on the house. the tea is of high quality and is imported from japan. old man Noshi knows how to treat his customers right. He's also very dedicated to the restaraunt. he gets up at the crack of dawn everyday to get choice fish from the fish market and he gets less than 5 hours of sleep because he's working at the restaraunt til closing. he holds his sushi at the highest standards. <br />i always compare other sushi places to noshi because i have no higher standards and i've been to a lot of sushi places. yes, you won't find those cute looking dishes you find at fusion sushi places like a catapillar role but their sushi is always top notch and prepared properly. for traditional sushi, noshi is the best hands down not to mention the competitive price he offers. yes, the ambience and look of the restaurant could use some work but screw ambiance when your stomach and wallet are happy.<br /><br />and yes, the guard outside is korean and he's been out there for years and years. he's a nice guy. i always greet him everytime i go to noshi.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17425347.post-1157855464517130812006-09-09T19:31:00.000-07:002006-09-09T19:31:00.000-07:00Hah, you know, I had ALMOST forgotten about this g...Hah, you know, I had ALMOST forgotten about this gem - blessings for the reminder.

It's a delicious thing, but it didn't fit in with the "cool food" theme of my post so I didn't mention it.<BR/><BR/>It's a mixture of chopped clams, chopped mushrooms, flying fish roe and mayonnaise, baked casserole-style in a large seashell to a crunchy crisp on top but still creamy inside, and served with a squeeze of lemon. Sounds weird, I know, but it's really yummy.<BR/><BR/>The waitresses can be a little hard to flag down, it's true. Used to be the same three waitresses there every night, and they knew us and our preferences. There's been some turnover lately, though.<BR/><BR/>Mmm.
