Best Japanese Restaurants in Southboro

Nothing special, good atmosphere good service good price for the amount of food

A little music would have been nice but I am sure it is difficult to accommodate everyone’s likings.

It's a fun place with delicious food but also very loud - great if you like a high energy environment!

We had a dinner reservation at the bar. We were promptly greeted by John the bartender. I had a passion fruit cosmo that was delicious. My boyfriend just had a bottled beer. He had a sirloin and baked potato that were cooked to perfection. I had steak tips and mashed potatoes. They were flavorful and filling. We told John this was our first visit so he was very helpful with the menu. We would definitely go back!

Sushi was prepared well, but the plating was spectacular! Some sushi had the tell-tale sign of being pre-prepared (chilled fish, cold, dry rice), but other maki was fresh and we were able to have the chef make a substitution in the preparation without any issues. Most of the menu items are made with crème cheese, which is unusual to say the least. Our only real problem with this restaurant is the noise - we were there mid afternoon and the place was only 1/2 full, yet my iPhone kept on alerting me to noise levels above 110 decibels. That kind of noise makes it hard to put this place on our “must return” list of restaurants. That and the fact that the server conveniently tapped the 20% gratuity tab on the screen when we went to pay our bill. We left the additional 20% , but really wish it had been our choice because there was a definite communication problem with our server who spoke better Portuguese than English
