Tuna Roll this Exit

Off the Old Hickory I-40 East exit in none other than the Dirty Herm an unsuspecting joint is rolling up something you don't smoke.  In a non-descript shopping strip where you still hear the hum of traffic is Taki Sushi.  This small restaurant does a great job disguising the environment beyond (all windows are discretely covered.)  The staff is friendly and the food is prepared quickly, but to-order (in typical Japanese fashion).


I can be a little boring when it comes to the raw stuff.  However, the Spicy Tuna, Be My Guest (fresh salmon, cuke, avocado, tobiko and spicy mayo mix) and Dragon rolls were all fresh, rolled tight and made me forget the humble surroundings of Taki.


Lunch is a steal:  $5-6 rolls and combos at $7-8.  Take out acceptable. Their miso soup, Ebi Tempura Roll and seaweed salad are adequate.  I want to try the Pepper Tuna next.  So when in Hermitage (Taki's open 7 days a week!), stop for sushi, but most importantly...


KEEP EATING OUT, NASHVILLE!
