Food was great, thick cuts of sashimi, fresh and with good flavor. The Tataki and soft shell crab were both great as well. Loved the combo of Thai and Japanese, I can't pass up a tom yum to mix it up over the standard miso. Will be back again.
This place is quite small, but definitely a spot you will want to try. Not only does the food look delightful to the eyes, it is as delicious as it looks! The service is wonderful. We were fortunate to have a dish provided by the chef, on the house.
(3.5/5)I've got mixed feelings about BaGu, I was worried that the fusion of what seems like southeast asian and more japanese cuisine would provide a mediocre representation, and, I was sorta right. I thought the food appetizers and entrees tasted better than the sushi.The Sunset and Crunchy Spicy Tuna (CST) rolls tasted generic, like if I went to a sushi buffet, this is what I would expect. Know what I mean? The Sunset one was very mellow and sweet, but didn't have a "wow" factor. The CST one was more interesting because of the play on textures, crunchy, sweet, fresh, creamy, salty but I was left unimpressed as both were nearly $20 a roll.Karage - this seemed to have SE Asian flare on it as the the most dominant flavors were ginger and salt. I would use a tad bit less salt, but the choice to use dark meat was smart and kept the chicken moist and add richness. One thing to note is that the dish came out in a large clump and needed to be manually separated into sharable pieces.Gyoza - nice hard pan sear and meat had sweet notes. Would use more green onions + white and black pepper. Accompanying soy sauce had some variation of vinegar mixed in and it contrasted well against the saltiness.*Public Service Announcement*Spice levels are on the Asian Richter scale, so if spice isn't your forte, order one level, or two, down from what you usually do.Drunken Noodles - order with wide noodles, it makes a difference. The dish was SPICY (learn from me, I didn't ask which heat scale it was) but very, very flavorful. Savory all around with notes of holy basil and sweet seared crab. Chewy and crunchy textures.Pad Thai - okay, this is like a stereotypical dish, but nonetheless, always a viable option. The dish was nutty and sweet, almost caramel like, and balanced the spice.Overall, BaGu is pretty expensive and I'd go back for the food, but not sushi. I still think the sushi buffets are a better bang-for-your-buck type of place.
Our favorite Thai place in town! The curry gets you two servings (love having amazing leftovers for lunch the next day!) highly recommend the green curry.
The Steak and sushi were amazing. If it's nice out ask to sit on the patio it was perfect.
Amazing to sit out back on a summer day and enjoy some delicious food. I always go for the sashimi, and they did not disappoint, nice portion size as well.
Neighborhood sushi at its best.
Amazing food! Great back patio
Fun grad dinner for the family, wonderful as always. Truly great local experience.
There is a 3.5% surcharge per card transaction! Came here yesterday with my partner for dinner and it was pretty good. Initial impression is that the restaurant is EXTREMELY small. It can sit about 10-15 people total. The waitress was extremely friendly and helpful. It did kind of suck that half the drinks on the menu they did not have available. The food came out pretty promptly. We ordered the fried dumplings, the California roll, the number 9 and another set of sushi. It’s weird how different types have a set amount. There’s a list of ones that come with 5,6,8 sushi rolls, it would be nice to be able to decided which type of sushi roll you want and how many from the options listed. Food was delicious and well prepared. Pricing was pretty affordable as well. As stated in other reviews there is a 3.5% surcharge for using a card which is not disclosed anywhere on the menu or by the staff. If you come, I would suggest using cash. Overall the food was good. I would definitely return!
