WHERE: Bui Sushi, Malibu CA.
Am I allowed to say that I might like Bui more than Nobu?!? Bui is easy, tourist free and divine sushi. The ambiance does not compare to the new oceanfront Nobu, but the sushi and neighborhood feel make up for it. Char and I met some friends at Bui tonight and had the best time.

MOTHER SAYS:
There are so many good things on the menu… my favorites are the rainbow crunch roll, hamachi carpaccio, peppered crusted tuna roll and their mixed green salad. All are spicy and flavorfully diverse.
We tried the paradise roll tonight and it was not paradise, we had to send it back…
Peppered crusted tuna roll below (shrimp tempura, avocado and cucumber inside, topped with peppered tuna and jalapeno salsa)… so so heavenly.
DAUGHTER SAYS:
I ate the avocado roll, it was soo good. I ate noodles (the lo main garlic noodles with tiger shrimp), it was my favorite. I had rice and miso soup and mixed them together it was so yummy.
Unfortunately they were out out of the fried popcorn shrimp, which is a favorite for our boys. They served us shrimp tempura instead, which none of the kids enjoyed.
If you order anything at Bui, it should be the tempura pancake banana split, it is one of our top five favorite desserts in the universe.
OVERALL RATING:
Location/Ambiance: 7 out of 10- nice outdoor seating with fireplace, cozy all throughout, complete neighborhood feel. Accommodates kids. However, it is near Ralphs, CVS etc..
Service: 9 out of 10- very friendly staff, you get to know them. Fun. EASY.
Food: 9 out of 10- usually it is a 10, but the shrimp tempura and paradise roll were less than mouth watering. As long as you know what to order you can expect a 10.
Overall: 8 out of 10- it is our favorite Malibu sushi…
