You can taste the quality of salmon and tuna. Yakitori skewers are really small but good. Chalkboard menu only as it often changes. Nothing on tap but they have your typical Japanese bottled beer.
Same menu as downtown. Still working through opening rough edges but 9/10 hit the mark. EDIT; after several more visits upgrading to a 5 as they have worked out the kinks... :-)
I recently visited Shobu by Kengo and was pleasantly surprised by the experience. Despite the small size, the atmosphere felt intimate and bustling, without feeling too crowded. We sat at the bar and received excellent service from our bartender, who provided great recommendations that did not disappoint. The portion sizes and pricing were fair, and we did not feel rushed despite the restaurant being busy with a waitlist. The only thing I would change is the absence of regular tuna maki on the menu, as the regular tuna nigiri was incredible and would make an excellent roll. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our experience and look forward to returning in the future.
High quality sushi for a good price. My favorites were the Bluefin Otoro, Chicken meatball yakitoro and hamachi Serrano makimono. Least favorite was the chicken breast skewer, too much of a horseradish taste for my liking.
Just like the downtown location, you will find high quality food, and fantastic service! Beautiful atmosphere as well.
