Oishi Sushi — Restaurant in Chesapeake

I’d say I’d give 4 stars for creativity. But the execution was so so. First time for me to see tempura shrimp with asparagus, mango and then wrapped in soy bean wrap.

I think it was a good deal for the amount of money I spent ($20 after cost, tax, and tip). If you’re looking for a more meaningful/authentic experience, search elsewhere.
