Fans of the elaborate sushi options at Shinto Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi Bar in Strongsville will roll over for its fast-casual concept in University Circle. Great for on-the-go college students, doctors and nurses in the area, the affordable menu lets guests build their own rolls ($7.95) in a six-step process from wrap to toppings. Feel free to be adventurous, whether you’re craving a shrimp and grilled beef combo or want to add a little Sriracha kick to your white tuna. But if you want to go with something tried-and-true, opt for the Kenko roll ($11.95). White rice, cucumber, avocado, cream cheese, crab and shrimp tempura are gathered into a soy wrap then drizzled with a sweet miso glaze — checking off all our got-to-have sushi boxes. Also Try: If you’re on the hunt for a traditional bowl, the chicken teriyaki ($8.95) is a solid bet with rice, cabbage, carrot and broccoli mix. Don’t overlook the surrito ($11.95) — all the sushi ingredients you love just at a burrito size. 11312 Euclid Ave., Cleveland, 216-862-7690, kenko-usa.com
