text: I'm not a sushi snob - in fact, being a pretty strict vegetarian for the past four years, I'd never tried sushi except for the California and avocado rolls.  Real sushi is quite a different experience.  \n\nThe ambience was pretty mod - I liked the colored glass ball lights hanging from the ceiling.  The waitstaff was friendly but (and?) I felt like I'd walked into a modeling agency by mistake.  \n\nWe went to Ra on a Friday or Saturday night, on the earlier side, and there were less than half a dozen tables occupied.  We sat at the sushi bar and had the following:\n- yellowfin tuna\n-shrimp \n-California roll\n-New Zealand roll\n-sake Sangria\n\nOverall, it was a fun and tasty experience.  The sake Sangria went really well with the food.  The yellowfin tuna was okay, the shrimp was yummy, but the New Zealand rolls took the cake - smoked salmon and cream cheese (which I know makes sushi freaks cringe) on the inside, pine nuts, slices of fresh kiwi (!), and an eel-mango drizzle over the top.  WHOA!  Pretty cool.  I'm not saying it's authentic sushi (I honestly have no idea), but it sure was good (and fresh).\n\nI would go back but would check out other sushi places first.
