We stayed at a DoubleTree hotel next to the restaurant, and went there for a Sushi dinner, the portion was relatively big! Just an OK restaurant, nothing special.

My husband and I went here for lunch. It was super dead. Then the food came out and it was kind of cold. So the calamari became more chewy. The staff was OK. They didn’t seem to be attentive to us. All in all the food was OK. The service was also ok. The decorations was nice though.

Great place to come for a date night or dinner with family and friends, and watch a great chefs work there cooking skills, any sushi and filet mignon, shrimp with fried rice is great, if you want to switch it up from just going out to another regular restaurant just setting at a table waiting for your food, this is the spot , sit back and watch the chefs work there magic

The chef was funny and the food was pretty good, but it was a disjointed experience.

We went there to celebrate two birthdays and and Anniversary and it was horrible the cook was inexperienced forgot the bowls for the rice the fried rice was hard and crunchy, didn’t ask me how I wanted my meat cooked and it was a bit rare. Failed at a couple of tricks cooking. When I called them to complain about it a day later they told me that they couldn’t do anything about it because apparently I should have complained and made a Seen while I was there. $340 later….I been going 30 years and won’t go back!

We used to like this place and ate here many times about 8 years ago when we were living around here. It was like a castle to us. Now the place looked dirty, just look at the seats! I like a clean looking restaurant We had ordered the sashimi combination and the tuna was warm and very red looking. The salmon was ok. Very disappointing last night although we still tip 20%. We won’t be coming back for sure!

The food was delicious I had a get together for my daughters birthday. There was a lot of confusion with the menu and where to sit.

Calm and quiet atmosphere. We went for dinner on Wednesday evening. We were greeted by a friendly hostes and with a smile. We were seated right away and were taken care of. We ordered edamame, shrimp tempura, Combo Bento Box and Combo Sashimi and Nigiri. Everything was delivered promptly and at the perfect temperature. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Can’t wait to return. I only took picture of the Sashimi and Niguri Combo.

Food was good, we had amazing birthday dinner celebration. It was fun hibachi experience if you haven’t tried, food is cooked in front of you. They have great selection of sushi.

To me ONLY… Nijo Castle is better than Ohana Japan and Benihanas. I absolutely love this place. We leave at the hibachi grill.
