Which is why Billy Sushi is more than just a restaurant, it is an experience for anyone who allows themselves to take part. A three-ring performance of sorts - sushi bar, sake bar and dining room - brought to life by the performances of sushi chefs, bartenders and servers. And the Ring Master and your host, Billy.

Delicious food and cocktails. Had the Roasted Brussels Sprouts and the Bison Steak Frites.The Brussels were very roasted and still moist and delicious. The Bison Steak was perfectly done and the accompanying fries tasty all alone or with the optional dill aioli. Only not was the food took a bit to arrive, but was well worth the wait.

The food was good with the exception of the salmon that was grilled and burnt and overdone. The burnt provided a bitter taste. The staff took it off the bill and brought us dessert. I appreciated the kindness concerning the upset. The restaurant was loud with the live music. They could have brought the sound down a notch. The ambiance was lovely. The server and manager was attentive and lovely.
