Very unique and best described from their website: "The Merchant Kitchen is the product of almost 2 decades of dreaming, brainstorming and planning. Hundreds of dishes, twenty-one cities in fourteen countries - all of it led to where we are now. Exploring cities and towns along the equator, tasting their food carts, and visiting the local markets have allowed us to bring that to the table an experience that enables guests to escape routine and enjoy flavors with friends and family.

It's a bit of a drive, but it's worth it. All you can eat Korean BBQ and sushi with your own cook pot or open flame in the middle of your table. Cheap beer and unlimited sashimi. If you love sushi, you can't afford to miss this place.

This place is cool - sort of like a pub/nightclub hybrid. The downstairs has a very sportsbarish-pub feel while the upstairs is a full on busy nightclub on the weekend. It fills up quickly though so show up early.
