Blue Ribbon Sushi Bar & Grill

Open since 2015, Blue Ribbon turned one of The Grove’s most cursed and consistently vacant storefronts into a mall staple of sorts. The very fact this upscale sushi bar is still around is a triumph. The sushi and sashimi dishes are solid enough, but you’re going to ignore most of it to focus on their fried chicken wings. They’re crunchy, moist, and served with a wasabi honey sauce that takes each bite to a new level. Paying $22 for six wings is slightly painful, but so is The Grove, and you managed to say yes to that.
