So I've landed a first date on Saturday for lunch. I'm thinking sushi since we both like enjoy it. What recommendations does the SO offer? There are a number in the area but I'm thinking sushi neko on Western. Thoughts?

Sushi Neko is good but you get less for what you pay for.
I have heard mixed reviews on In The Raw but I have been a few times and while being pricy you get a lot more and I think it's very good.
Sushi Tokyo gets a lot of rave but it's basically overrated and you pay a lot for much less.
Okura on North May and I think 71st not far from La Baguette is a great place to go as well. I have been there once but I think it's very good.
Buddha Tao you get an unlimited selection of Asian cuisines and sushi meals. I have been there three times and you get exactly what you pay for. It's definitely worth it.

Best sushi in OKC is Tokyo on Western. It's not totally refined on the inside, either, which makes for a cool vibe, really.

Tokyo I tell you is not worth it. It has nothing to offer once you get there.

You'd think the Eat Around OKC people and general rave about the place means there's SOMETHING offered once you get there.

go eat 'In the Raw', very ambiatic, it's in Bricktown or Campus Corner. Afterwards you can grab a cup of coffee at the Starbucks right nearby.

I love "In The Raw." Their "Some Like It Hot" roll is one of my favorites. I've never had Neko, but some friends of mine swear it is the best.

Know how I know y'all are gay?
Liking delicious food does not make you gay. Mmmmm. Neko. Might have to hit that place for lunch today.
Does this qualify as sushi?
God, how I hate the 21st century.

One other thing. I think it's kinda risky taking a chick for sushi on a first date. What if your sushi ends up tasting like rotten *****? Or what if her ***** ends up tasting like rotten sushi? It's a lose-lose.
Take her somewhere like an Irish pub or something. Fish and chips or a burger and a couple Guinness'. You can't go wrong.
I hate to agree with , but sushi for a first lunch date seems strange to me.
Of course, if you've thrown it out there, you can't rescind. The only place in the city that I know of is Neko. I have only been to In The Raw in Brookside. Neko was pretty good a half dozen years back.
Neko has nice atmosphere, but it may seem like you're trying too hard.
SoonerinabileneOh sweet jesus. Its like watching the special olympics in high definition on here now.
It IS overpriced.
And I love the overpriced Nirvana Roll at In the Raw.

"O" or In the Raw in Norman.
Oh and the Candy Roll at In the Raw RMFFO!
I love Japanese food, especially sushi and sashimi. I think it is a great idea for a first date.
I have no suggestions for OKC Japanese restaurants. Some of you are mentioning about being over-priced. What would the typical bill be for two?
I think I would have price shock if I lived in the US. I took my 16 office colleagues out for lunch yesterday at a very good Japanese restaurant in Bangkok and the bill came to $120, or about $7 per person.
