ROL Hand Roll Bar

Jan 2

Huntington Beach, CA

I love sushi. It is, legitimately, one of my favorite things to eat. D and I decided to try this hand roll bar. It’s the first time I’ve been to a restaurant with this concept though I’ve seen photos of other similar restaurants in the LA area. ROL specializes in hand rolls, kinda omakase style. There’s a set menu and we sat at the bar. The rolls come out one at a time as you finish eating them so the next one is always freshly made.

We shared the 6 set menu ($32) that comes with:

Salmon
Spicy Tuna Crunch
Scallop
Spicy Crab
Albacore
Toro

We also ordered the uni a la carte ($25) as sea urchin is one of my top favorites.

two cocktails at a sushi bar — Princess Violet (front), Tipsy Geisha (back)

And we got a couple cocktails - Princess Violet ($16) crafted with gin, lychee, lemon and Tipsy Geisha ($16) made with vodka, pomegranate, orange flower water, lemon.

These were so pretty with beautiful colors. Warning on those glasses though, I always spill with these type. Maybe because they’re so wide, shallow, and tall. The perfect structure to tip over.
