The beef and freshwater eel had a subtle grilled aroma that paired really well with the sauce, and they were delicious. 😃 The rice portion was a little more generous than at a typical sushi place, and the grains had a chewy, sticky texture. When picked up with chopsticks, the rice didn't fall apart easily, and the more I chewed, the more I noticed a subtle sweetness. Overall, it made for a filling meal. ## Is Sushi Naru worth it for eating alone? Sushi Naru's special sushi platter let me try a wide variety of sushi in one sitting, and with the mini udon on the side, it made for a satisfying meal. With counter seating available, it was a fine spot for solo dining, and with rice bowls, katsu, sashimi, and more beyond just sushi, there's enough variety to keep coming back and trying something different.
