http://myshinbashi.com/ - we ate there last night and thought it was a nice
restaurant with a good atmosphere. They opened this spring and are still
working the bugs out. We only had S27 - Sushi Regular (the deluxe is shown
in the picture.) It came with salad or miso soup, but not both :(

Food was good, but the Itamae were both rather young, and a little more
experience might be needed to get it right, but for the price, it was good eats.

I believe the owner used to work at 'The Green Tea' there in Ellsworth,
which we were sad to see go, but now we're happy to see it transformed.

Prices seem very reasonable, good selection of sushi. My only issue is it
seems they do Chinese and Vietnamese as well. I'm a little hesitant about
restaurants that do more than one cuisine, since for the most part they do
not 100% of each cuisine..

I prefer to go to Japanese restaurant for sushi, not a Chinese/Japanese/Thai
restaurant. I'm not saying you won't get good sushi, just that it won't be
supurb. Just my opinion, of course.

I get your point and agree, Dan. It's just that in Downeast Maine you need
to attract as many clients as you can and hopefully this won't put off the
purists. But it's my closest option and still 60 miles one-way. I'll be
making up excuses though :)

Yeah, that must be rough being that far out. What is the population in the area?

We're used to traveling for almost everything. Ellsworth has a population of
about 7,700 according to the 2010 census. The county Ellsworth is in,
Hancock, has about 55,000 with Ellsworth being the largest city. But I like
the low population density, so traveling is my choice.
