As you get to know us, you'll find that one of the things we love most is food. Eating it, cooking it, pairing it with various drinks... if it's food-related... we're there! Therefore, I was overjoyed when I heard that someone was opening a sushi restaurant near my Terramar home in Peoria. Well, Squid Ink Sushi has been open for a little under a year now, and not only has it become one of my favorite places to eat, it's also a great place to listen to live music and enjoy local artist displays. We normally go to Squid Ink for lunch, since it's on the way home from the Long Realty offices in Surprise. While we don't get the music or art at that time of day, I can still get their kick-ass sushi lunch special, consisting of a soup or salad and a mix of spicy crab roll & assorted nigiri (the lower plate in the picture below.) Josh gets a bit more adventurous, instead opting for some of their house rolls, like the Buffalo Chicken Roll (shown on the plate above my lunch special) or their Surf & Turf Roll (in the first picture).
For those not partial to sushi, Squid Ink also has a full menu of non-fishy items, as well as a kid's menu (the chicken teriyaki bowl was devoured by my cousin's two year old son.) Throw in their TWO happy hours and all their special events, and you've got a wonderful addition to the Peoria restaurant scene. Squid Ink Sushi is located at 9947 W. Happy Valley Rd., Peoria, AZ 85383. They also have a pretty cool Facebook page.
