The Social House takes over Zeno in Uptown

Isn't this just another Fun Group place... if so who cares what it changes too... They'll change the name again after it fails, a lawsuit, or some other scandalous behavior.

I found this review extremely disappointing. It seems as though the whole concept of Social House was misrepresented as a sushi restaurant gone wrong. It appears that Ms. Weiss was expecting more "traditional" sushi on the menu and received something quite different. My response is the obvious- DUH. I would expect a roll to not be the same thing I have had a million other times elsewhere. Interestingly enough, I don’t believe I have ever had a roll at Social House that had cream cheese in it…and I have had almost every single roll on the menu. I have also never had a roll that tasted “deep fried” so I found it interesting that she seemed to have a difficult time ordering one that didn’t have the words “deep-fried” on the menu. I go to Social House because the rolls are the best play on flavors you can find. If someone is expecting “traditional” rolls, and let me say that there is arguably no such thing as a traditional roll, then they didn’t do their homework before walking in the door. Why someone would order a roll and think that is a good determination for the quality of the sushi alone is beyond me. Please for the love of God order the sashimi or nigiri. Don’t waste my time commenting on the rolls. Bottom line, the rolls are pretty spectacular and trying to find fault in the food because you were expecting the same old boring shit you can get anywhere else, well, that just furthers my point that this review was disappointing.

I cannot agree. I really would not go to any other sushi restaurant in the twin cities, I feel like family here, and am always treated like a king here.
