Seems to be a decent place for sushi, but the salmon I had was small and unsatisfying (even for lunch), and the sides were laughable (some beans or asparagus or somesuch). more

Skipjack's is a solid bet for a meal. We've been many times and always been happy. We've been to all three locations and like the Newton restaurant the best. Try the bucket of steamed seafood on the appetizer menu! more
