Rumble Fish Mountain View — Restaurant in Mountain View

Being a gourmand, I prefer quantity when it comes to food. So Sushi is the last thing I prefer when I food hunt during weekends. I wasn't having a great appetite on this day, so I finally decided to give Sushi a try in Rumble Fish.

I ordered an Orange Delight roll. The sushi comes with CAL roll stuffing inside the rice with salmon and lemon slice on top outside.

I had my first piece and found the lemon slice to be too dominating. Had my second piece removing the lemon slice, and the taste was not bad. Not convinced, I started to experiment a little with my sides. I added a slice of gari on top with two pinches of wasabi to my third piece. It hit me like a hook out of nowhere. The strong flavors of wasabi gari and the lemon tried to dominate one another in my mouth causing sensations I have never felt before. They were then neutralised, finally bringing in the flavor of salmon and rice with CAL stuffing inside. I got my formula right and then it was just bliss from then on savoring the remaining pieces.

It's not like I have never had sushi before this. I used to consider them decent. But this dish has helped me realize why there are zesty Sushi fans everywhere. Would definitely visit this place again and explore...

I honestly was not super jazzed with our experience here.

Location is great - right in the center (maybe a bit towards outer) downtown Mountain View so make sure you find parking in a garage or something if you’re going on a weekend. It wasn’t too busy when we came - it was about a 30 minute wait for a table without a reservation but we sat at the bar.

I wasn’t terribly impressed with the menu choices that they had and it took a bit to hone in on something I liked. Food was OK - nothing to write home about, and the rolls were coming out so slowly that we would finish one dish before the next part of our order even came

Our service was pretty subpar, I’m sorry to say. Our waitress seemed to sort of forget about us once we were seated and we had to wait a long time for things like plates, chopsticks, water, etc. she seemed to be continually forgetting what she was doing - a nice girl don’t get me wrong - but it seemed like she must have been very new

Anyway, it was a fine visit but I don’t think I...

Best chicken katsu, hidden gem for getting drunk and high quality sushi.

My favorite is chicken katsu (bento box), you can enjoy crispy and tender chicken cutlet there. I highly recommend it for everyone who likes to eat inside or who needs a lunch box. It's very subjective but I can feel the spirit and love from their katsu. My tempura in the bento box agrees with me.

It's a hidden gem to get drunk. They have a full cocktail bar and I like their interior design as you can see from the photos. It's the only place I really get drunk. Why is it the best? Because they have some diversity of drinks from Asia. You can find not only Japanese sake and Korean Soju, but also standard drinks. Even if you want some whiskey, you have additional choices like Japanese whiskey. More choices more drinks, but no memory (kidding). I guess it will shine again after the pandemic.

Their sushi is way above the average, too. And it's my favorite place to...
