We have been to Japan so many times, and Musashi is our go to restaurant if we are craving for some authentic Japanese food. We like the Karaage, Shrimp Tempura, Agedashi Tofu, Chawan Mushi, and Chirashi.

A delicious array of options! I wish i had seen the chalkboard of sushi available in the 2nd room before we left/ordered. It had the day’s specials. The shochu list is great, and very yummy. The staff is attentive and thoughtful in many ways, even though we stashed ourselves away in a corner — we were never forgotten!

They have a really great and fresh fish selection. Including some hard to find varieties. Always made with care and delicious.

Musashi’s karaage has become my comfort food. They’re very lightly battered so you can still taste the juicy chicken thighs – seasoned to perfection.

I went here when the restaurant just opened at 5pm and had to wait 45 min before receiving my food for a table of two. The salmon roll was okay, but the rice was kind of hard and the seaweed was hard to chew. I also ordered the weekly special that is served until 7pm but it was not great. I would not eat it again. So this restaurant is terrible at both OG dishes and their special dishes.

Don’t typically write reviews but for something rated so highly I expected so much more. Truly, one of the worst sushi places I’ve ever been to. Our avocado was browning, our rice mushy and overcooked, the fish was flavorless. Our ramen was overly salty with just 3 pieces of meat. We spent $65 for two people (two rolls and a ramen) and left hungry and dissatisfied. The service was horrible. We stood waiting for 20 minutes with our name on a list before anyone even acknowledged us, just to sit at the bar that was open the whole time we were there. Food took forever and was an overall expensive and unenjoyable experience.

This is a true hidden gem. The quality of food here is phenomenal. I’ve been get food to go for years, but had time to dine in recently. Service was good even though they were packed. But i only have 4 stars for atmosphere as I perfer a cozier sushi dining experience.
