RA Sushi Bar & Restaurant

Ra's Old Town location is as much about the scene as it is the sashimi. The trendy eatery has a bright crimson color scheme (including red walls and glowing light fixtures), as well as a posh party atmosphere. The patronage skews young, as it's often filled with the date night crowd and twentysomethings downing cans of Kirin and signature rolls like the Viva Las Vegas or the Tootsy Maki. Visit during the weekday happy hour for food and drink specials like half-price sushi and appetizers, as well as $5 martinis and margaritas. Be sure to try the sake sangria, a mix of Western and Eastern flavors that's perfect for those who might be intimidated by the strong taste of Japanese rice wine.
