I have never had a bad dish. Everything there is delicious. It is run by a couple who take pride in their food and service.. So we are supporting a local business when we eat there. I highly recommend them

Have used Tenkyu (chef Chuck) several times to cater an event (pick up). He aims to please and can provide virtually anything Japanese. Especially good with sushi and sashimi. He’s very creative and open to prepare rolls and sashimi variation. High quality and very reasonably priced.

The fish is incredibly fresh. We went in on Saturday night at 830pm. The service was very quick. Friendly unusual staff. The sushi boat was not operating. Im guessing since more customers are currently eating out then dining in.

I love Tenkyu! I always end up overeating maybe a bit when I get here, but there are just so many good choices! Everything I’ve gotten here has been wonderful. It’s a treat, and all reasonably priced. They have a great assortment of rolls, and I love checking out the special rolls they happen to have.

Beef Teriyaki portion was small. About 5-6 small pieces of meat with a heap of rice, two gyoza and 3 California rolls. For the price they’re charging, put at least 10 pieces.
