Food Quality

Pros:

  • "The salmon was fresh and buttery, the tuna firm and juicy, and the star of the show is real fresh wasabi, not a green lump of paste."
  • "Freshly made. Hand rolled."
  • "The sushis and menu items are great."
  • "The rainbow roll was a hit."
  • "The food was delicious. Some of the best sushi I ever had."
  • "All of the food was spot on; everything tasted fresh and delicious."
  • "The assorted fish was undoubtedly fresh and delicious."

Cons:

  • "I thought sushi was just ok and kinda pricey... $23 for a cup of soup and 1 roll."
  • "The quality of meat used in the beef teriyaki is poor. Especially for $25."
  • "Now it's just a below average sushi spot with bland overpriced rolls and half-ass 'Chinese' food."
  • "The black pepper seared tuna was disappointing and rather plain and simple, nothing 'wow' about it."
  • "Compared to these places the sushi here is mediocre at best some dishes are good but some are awful - Tropical Sushi is an example of that - it’s down right $12 rip off."
  • "The Szechuan shrimp came with only 4 shrimps."
  • "The food was really bland."

  • "The vibe was pleasant and cute."

Cons:

  • "It gets very loud when the restaurant is full, as there are no dividers to help dampen the sound."
  • "They put us at the sushi bar. Meanwhile most of the restaurant was empty."
  • "Sitting by the bar with my friend was sensory overload. Lots of lights and plenty of color."

  • "Unless you really want to enjoy the ambiance of the restaurant, I would not recommend eating here."
  • "We were not greeted for almost 20 minutes, appetizers were forgotten, service was abysmally slow."
  • "I would recommend putting someone at least a little friendly behind the bar."

Price

Pros:

  • "The prices were reasonable."
  • "For roughly a roughly 50% increase in price compared to your typical American Chinese food, Mikimotos as a *massive* step up."
  • "The lobster dumplings are delicious. Probably my fav thing on the menu. Slightly pricey for dinner but lunch is reasonable."

  • "The drinks were delicious, generous and worth every penny."
  • "Parking was easy, even though it’s in the city, they have a lot to the right of the restaurant."

Cons:

  • "Priced as if they're the only game in town... wait, they are."
  • "Other places could probably give you the same quality food for a cheaper price."
  • "Not worth $80!"
  • "Food was good but not for the price. Rolls lacked any pop."
  • "For $16 a plate, that is indeed steep for a lunch portion."
  • "The cost does not justify the food taste."
  • "The food is a bit pricey & the (especially app) portions are a bit small.. so not much bang for your buck there."
