Whether to eat in or take out tiny Vic Sushi Bar on Sansom Street impresses.
To capitalize on the takeout trade, it offers party platters ranging from a 39-piece assortment ($30) to a 122-piece smorgasbord ($100). At those rates, it would be fair to expect mediocrity. Yet, a roster of 15 specialty rolls features nouveau-style creations like a mouthwatering eel and avocado maki wrapped in thin slices of champagne mango. Chef Qiyang Shi also brings out boutique ingredients like eye-catching nori wrappers made from white seaweed The repertoire may be rooted in standards like tuna and California rolls, but that’s not where it ends.
