After my first sushi experience in Charlotte (it didn't even deserve the one star), I was completely deflated. So a friend took me to Nikko, one of her favorite places.\n\nFor a $30 bento box, I expected quality. Service was great, and Nikko was entertainingly wild. Everything in my box tasted to par. My Charlotte sushi experience was looking on the up!\n\nSo why 2 stars? \n\nWell, I didn't think much of it when I was eating my nigiri, but the slices of fish were warmer than preferred. I attributed the rise in temperature to the other things that were cooked in my box since the fish had great texture and I could tell that it was fresh...\n\nI would say that I digest faster than the average person. By the time I was about to pay my bill, everything I ate that night exited my body. Not pleasant at all. The causation? Either something dirty, or I speculate, that warm fish - I guess it was sitting out longer than necessary. Regardless of the cause, something was not right about that dinner.\n\nI give it one more star than my last experience because of the nice atmosphere and service, but at least the sushi from that experience stayed in my tummy.
