Maki Rolls from Baba Sushi on Park Avenue in Worcester, MA

As you enter Baba Sushi, you immediately see a small space. The sushi bar in the front room dominates the area. A few small tables surround it, but it is quite a tight space.

Going to the back room, you drop down a few steps and enter a very different atmosphere. Predominately natural wood, skylights, and windows are everywhere. You feel like you are dining outside even though four walls surround you. Personally I would request the back room when being seated.

We ordered the deep fried gyoza to start our meal. This delicious appetizer was nicely fried with a crispy exterior texture and creamy minced pork filling.

Then, I ordered three Maki rolls.

The Rock’n’roll Maki—spicy tuna and eel sauce covered the shrimp tempura and cucumber in a nori wrap—was fantastic. I would order this roll again.

The Alaskan—smoked salmon, cucumber, and avocado—was a very enjoyable maki roll too. My final roll was a tuna and avocado roll. All my sushi was excellent. The presentation detail was beautiful too.

Our server, Brad, was excellent. He was attentive, courteous and knowledgeable.

I would recommend Baba Sushi to my friends and family. I look forward to sampling more of their offerings in the future.

Ultimate Herb Roll

What a nice new Sushi restaurant Hirosaki Prime is!  The atmosphere was super and with a modern interior – perfect for a date night.

I am new to Sushi and went cautiously with my choice of food selection.  Therefore, I chose the Ultimate Herb Roll.  This vegetarian roll was soo good tasting and with a little ginger dipping sauce even better. The presentation was picture perfect.  The Inari was a fun side dish, – a fried tofu over rice.  It was great tasting as well.  The cooks were amazing to watch, as they prepared all the other meat dishes at the counters in front of us and funny food jokes were a part of the show as well.  Quite entertaining.

I asked the waiter about specials for kids and the restaurant offer every Tuesday nights – 1 child eats for free per paid entre.  I am going to invited my little ones to try Japanese food in the new year.  I am looking forward to this special treat for my family.

Happy New Year to all you Foodies out there. -CD
