Vacations mean good eating and happy times, hurray! I took a trip to Orlando, FL to attend the Star Wars Celebration convention. I had some free time on Friday night, because all my friends were attending a party that there were no more tickets too. I looked at my Hilton Honors dining options, nothing like earning extra points. There was this place called Izziban in Orlando, Fl. It was a $20 cab ride from the convention center.
Meh.
This place had a weird theme going on. Not sure what sort of decoration theme they were going for. The music was clubby and kind of annoying. They had a large assortment of sushi options. I really just wanted some nigiri and maybe a roll or two. I opted for the sushi deluxe, 9 pieces of nigiri, spicy tuna roll, and the yummy yummy roll.
The yummy yummy roll was delicious. Shrimp tempura with eel sauce and masago. Really good a good start to the evening. The sushi took a bit while longer to come out. It was okay. Really the quality wasn’t stellar, it wasn’t bad either. It was honestly average sushi. The sushi was a little warm too, which was a little odd. Spicy tuna roll was fine, but it had sirachi mixed with the tuna, and I’m not a huge fan of sirachi spicy rolls.
Sushi was expensive and for average sushi not worth it. Service was good.
