"I was in the mood for sushi and wanted something nearby we can to-go since it was raining hard. My date recommended this place and since I was actually craving basic rolls we opted for Yanagi. The menu had a lot to choose from, and although I rarely crave california or spicy tuna rolls, this seemed like the perfect time, especially since It was going to be to-go. _Tuna Sushi Special $21) 5 pcs tuna sushi and 8 pcs spicy tuna roll. I generally don't care for tuna sushi, so for me this was okay. The spicy tuna itself was nothing to rave about. _Salmon Sushi Special $18.50) 5 pcs salmon sushi and 8 pcs of salmon avocado roll. The salmon sushi was good and fresh. I actually was more into the salmon and avocado roll. A bit heavy on rice than what I prefer but still good._Caterpillar Roll $14) Eel, cucumber, topped with avocado. Served with eel sauce. This was actually a mistake on my part. I meant to get a Dragon roll, but miscommunication and got Caterpillar instead. The eel was good, and I was happy to see how generous they were with the avocado. The eel sauce was on the side which was great since I always find the sauces too heavy when dining in. _Baked Blue Crab Roll $13.50) Baked blue crab, spicy mayo, scallion wrapped in soy paper. Cut to 5 pcs. This was good, and probably my fave out of everything. Fair amount of blue crab and the flavor was light. I would order this again. _California Roll $6) Crab, avocado, and cucumber. The california roll hit the spot. Good ratio of crab, avocado and rice. I could have used a little more cucumber, but still a solid roll. Sometimes you need to go back to basics and this was that for me. Overall solid place for something quick and basic. I was worried that doing to-go would have made the rice soft, or the rolls not as fresh, but everything was pretty well kept."
