BWW Reviews: SUSHI ROXX in NYC for a Great One-of-a-Kind Dinner Theatre Experience

Exotic, enticing, entertaining and delicious. SUSHI ROXX is located Midtown East within The Tuscany Hotel, incredibly convenient to Grand Central Station. This new hot-spot spot is truly distinctive in New York City and that's saying a lot for a town that has every type of entertainment and food imaginable.

SUSHI ROXX is a dinner theatre experience that comes to Manhattan direct from Tokyo. Here you will experience fabulous gourmet offerings, an inspired cocktail menu, excellent service, terrific music and fantastic dance numbers. The venue is dazzling with Asian cityscapes projected behind guests, dragons weaving in and out of the walls, and pillars being transformed into flowing waterfalls.

While you sit back and relax to enjoy dinner and drinks, it's full on fun with POP ROXX performances. The multi-talented wait staff seamlessly enters the spotlight with music and choreographies that are top tier entertainment. Totally pro "flash mob" numbers have been created by former Pussycat Dolls star, Asia Nitollano.

The sushi menu is wonderfully designed with specials like their Original Roxx Boxx (salmon tomato, avocado cucumber, spicy tuna crunch and yellowtail jalapeno) or the Mr. Miyagi (avocado, cucumber, Japanese pickle, sprouts, burdock and sriracha).

But don't stop there. Even if you aren't a sushi lover, you'll find great choices on the menu. House specialties include dinner selections like Shitake Polenta, Chicken Tempura or tender Filet Mignon served with baby carrots and ginger soy sauce.

The beverage program includes carefully selected beer, wine and sake choices. The cocktails are memorable with distinctive combinations that will make you return for another round. We enjoyed two choices that had an Asian twist. The "Tiger Lily" is made with Bacardi Superior Rum and the Double Dragon has Green Tea infused Bombay Sapphire Gin.

And dessert, yes dessert, is not to be missed. Try their Molton Sticky Toffee Cupcake, a Honeydew Sorbet or a Wasabi Gelato. Topping off your meal with something sweet will give you just another reason to linger and wait for another pop-up performance.

Plan an outing to SUSHI ROXX and bring some friends and colleagues. This is a spot that is sure to impress.
