Sake Bomb Tuesdays at Uni

[kimmel03]

Has anyone been recently?
Curious about sample menus and if you think a reservation is neccessary.

Thanks!

We went last night (I think they're now doing it Sunday through Tuesday).

Started out with a couple of fabulous cocktails from Todd at the bar. He's there Monday - Friday - go see him before he steps out! The cocktail menu is just awesome: http://boston.grubstreet.com/2010/03/...
I am really enjoying daquiris this season: THE # TRES:Beija, lime juice, Blonde Lillet, Luxardo triple sec, grenadine
Bulls Eye G&T for the man - the most care ever put into ice cubes

Food downstairs:
Some sort of sashimi of bass with thai green curry - fresh, savory, delicious
Scottish Salmon with Chinese black bean tapenade and fresh ginger - the standard
Tako (Japanese Octopus Sashimi) with yuzu, soy and ginger (added a la carte) - so many pieces of tender octopus!
Rock Shrimp Tempura with spicy red pepper aioli and Korean pepper threads
A chocolate ganache dessert from with coco nibs, almond bark, lemon ice cream

We had a reservation and were glad we did. The renovation is quite pretty and the bar at Clio is a must.

Argh...is Todd really leaving? That's tragic.

Reservations are definitely recommended. I was there recently on a tuesday, did not order the menu, but the place was full and there seemed to be a wait for the bar
