If you miss summer vacation like the rest of us, you’re probably dreaming of endless boardwalk fries and spending time with some friends until the early hours.  Now that you’re thinking about it, you also miss testing your taste buds with the limitless opportunities that Frederick has to offer. There may be much to try, but who actually feels the need to stray away from their comfort zone if they already know what they like? Well, you’d be surprised how good we’ve got it here in Frederick. But, stepping outside the comfort zone is never easy so we here at the Titan Times are going to help you to make an informed decision about where you should go for some tasty eats. Reviews of local restaurants will be featured weekly. This week we visited Sushi Densha.

Sushi Densha is a relatively new Japanese restaurant located on Buckeystown Pike, near CiCi’s Pizza.  Featuring a modern conveyer belt; sushi is sent around the bar area while many dine-in. Keep in mind, when using the belt the color of the plate dictates the price of the sushi. As for the service, both the hostess and waiters were welcoming. They also have an outdoor patio to accommodate more people. Regarding the ambiance, it was favorable.

It’s clear Sushi Densha makes an effort producing their Japanese cuisine. There was an appropriate wait, given the order at hand. It’s also easy to enjoy yourself since you won’t plan on breaking the bank. Once the food arrived, however, it was uninspiring. Although the taste was adequate, the loosely-packed sushi rolls fell apart upon handling. The menu did have a decent variety ranging from soups and salads to full dinner plates. But we were there for the sushi and as far as the sushi goes, it was a bit of a disappointment.

Based on our experience we are not likely to return. If you’re new to the sushi world or a seasoned veteran, you’d be better off seeking your sushi in any number of other restaurants in our area such as Matsutake Sushi & Steak and Lazy Fish. Now that we’ve gotten dinner out of the way, what’s for dessert? Our next review will feature a very scientific (not) comparison of different frozen yogurt eateries
