   Everything we ate was delicious. The yellowtail fish collar was delightful. Loved their ama ebi, wagyu roll was amazing, and the sake tasting was a great addition.

   Came here with my boyfriend for an anniversary lunch and we had an amazing experience! We came here on a Monday, so the place wasn’t packed but still had about 7 tables going. We got the $95 Shio tasting option without any add ons, and everything on it was delicious. Our favorites were the miso black cod, seared yellowtail, and a majority of the nigiri selections. For our anniversary, we got an extra slice of mango cheesecake and our waitress helped us take a photo using their own Polaroid camera. I think there was only one chef and one waitress working, and our waitress was still very attentive, often refilling my tea as soon as I was below half a cup. There was another table near us celebrating a birthday and they received the same extra service as we did. I felt like she really put in effort to give us a special dining experience and I really appreciate that! Not to mention that as omakase goes, it’s very reasonably priced here. Would definitely come back in the future and highly recommend!

   The restaurant had a nice atmosphere and is a nice place for date night or a nice family dinner out. Food was great (we had the tasting menu) and enjoyed the diversity of flavors it has to offer.

   Fresh sushi cut by an artist. Great playlist to set a relaxed vibe. Service was excellent and educated those in my group who had no knowledge of sushi or sake.

   My friends and I felt special dining here with an affordable tasting menu that didn’t compromise on quality. The atmosphere was perfect—not too loud—so we could all enjoy our conversation.

   Sushi Shio presented top quality sushi and sashimi for lunch, sourcing delicious fish from 3 continents. The sushi and sashimi lunch specials included a sophisticated gazpacho, the tastiest scallop sunomono, miso cod in a pumpkin coulis, sashimi and sushi from Japan, Australia, California and Korea, and delicious desserts. The Sake menu is excellent. Service is very friendly.

   The food was fantastic and unexpected. Though my husband and I love Japanese food and have dined in many Japanese places, there were unusually delicious and original options provided on the tasting menu. We ate during restaurant week. The black cod with pumpkin purée was possibly the best bite of fish I’ve ever had in my life. The nigiri was of such high quality and beautiful presentation, it rivaled the most elite restaurants with long waiting lists for reservations. I could go on and on, but I’m sure everything on their menu rings of originality and deliciousness. A+!

    Visited Sushi Shio for the first time during restaurant week and I had a great time dining here. The tasting menu featured a delightful variety of sashimi, flavors, and dishes that make it well worth a visit. Service was friendly, enthusiastic, speedy, and knowledgeable about each dish. The raw fish was exceptionally soft and fresh, with plenty of creative elements incorporated into several dishes. This was a great spot for a special occasion and I would love to come back for another one.
