CT Eats: SEA Restaurant makes waves with good Vietnamese food
The egg rolls, reminded me more of spring rolls: smaller, with a thinner and crispier exterior. I love when you can tell that something is fresh, piping hot, and directly out of the fryer, and this was definitely one of those cases.

CT Eats: John’s Tex Mex falls short
After a couple bites, the freshness of both the plain, cold fish and the sauce along with the also cold and fresh tomato and lettuce became a bit too plain. Everything was just a bit cold, soft, and bland when combined.

CT Eats: Amaya offers Indian food rich in flavor
The menu featured numerous different variations of naan, some even stuffed, but we decided to give the garlic naan a go.

CT Eats: Addis Ababa brings delicious Ethiopian food to Rochester
Now, this may be the only review in which you’ll read me say I enjoyed the dryness of the meat. The chunks of lamb were sturdy and a bit dried out, but this just allowed them to soak up more of that great sauce and to fall apart at the hands of it, giving the meat almost the consistency of a brisket.

CT Eats: Kung Fu, bubble tea that comes with a kick
I absolutely adored my honey milk tea. The honey flavor was spot on, strong, and easily identifiable without being overly sweet — I could easily drink the whole thing pleasantly without feeling that awful numbing, tongue-drying buildup of sweetness.

CT Eats: Sakura House’s food blossoms with flavor
One nice adjustment was making the individual wheels of negimaki perfectly bite-sized. Being able to eat the negimaki in one bite allowed for all the flavors to burst in your mouth at once.

The restaurant had a very welcoming aesthetic. Warm colors, plants, and tons of natural light made for a friendly, comfortable, inviting atmosphere — perfect for an impending food coma.

CT Eats: Battle of the barbecues: Does Sticky Lips hold up against Dino?
Just like Dino, Sticky Lips aims to capture the Americana look of old-school barbecue houses off the open road, like the ones in some motorcycle road trip movie. The difference is that Sticky Lips has way brighter lighting and a less-crowded feel.

CT Eats: Osaka, where infinite sushi rolls out onto your table
Also, they have a fish tank at both the Chili and Henrietta locations near the entrances of the restaurants, which I find morbidly hilarious, considering it’s a sushi place. Those poor guys are watching their brethren get eaten. I wonder if fish can shed tears in water...

CT Eats: Naantastic, the flawed Chipotle of Indian food
The options are also pretty much a carbon copy of Chipotle’s options, but with Indian food staples as the content instead of Mexican ones. That means you’ve got an option of choosing between naan tacos, a food bowl, or a naan wrap, filled with a protein base of lamb, chicken, cheese, or beans.
