I tried this brand new (one week) Thai Sushi Bar today at lunch. It is just past Publix (on the opposite side) moving west of I4. I tried the lunch special (one of seven) of chicken in red curry with jasmine rice for $12. Small. Not alot of chicken. Broccoli, snow peas, button mushrooms, onions and green peppers. Four out of five heat. The rice was dry. Curry was ok. Typical menu. Prices can reach the thirties for lamb and duck. I never get the combination of these two cuisines. They don't seem symbiotic. Sushi starts at $5. Tuna and salmon looked ok. Ambitious desserts. They have three locations in Jacksonville and one in St Augustine. The best thing about it is it. The room looks posh. Black and gray with gold flourishes. Faux marble. Different table sizes. Booths mostly. In groups of four in the middle. In threes by the windows. A long line on the far wall. Sushi bar with about ten seats on the far left wall. Bar with ten seats on the left of the entry way. Hostess table at the entry. Staff in unis. About a tenth full. Closed Tuesday. Lunch an dinner. Not covering much new ground. A bit above a franchise level experience.
