Fantastic chirashi. The sashimi was very fresh with no fishy smell or aftertaste. I was also pleasantly surprised by the sushi rice. It was seasoned with ginger and nori and different from other bowls I've had. Lastly, everything was packaged very nicely. 5/5 for taste and presentation
Always friendly. Efficient service and tidy space. Food is delicious, with some interesting combos.
I ordered the weeknight sushi box for one- Great sushi quality and selection, definitely on the pricer side tho
I just returned from 2 weeks in Japan (Tokyo/Kyoto/Osaka) and the quality of Cafe Sushi Shoten's sashimi is equivalently authentic to the quality I experienced in Japan. Service was super friendly and expeditious. Currently a take out venue, but they're making improvements to have dine-in very soon. This place is the real deal.
Everything you've heard is true. Amazing sushi! We moved to the area recently and I finally called in pickup. Each roll was delicious and super fresh. Once you have cafe sushi you can't go back. I wish they still had the eat in but I will definitely be popping by for takeout! They also have a little store upstairs with sake/soy sauce/ snacks. Highly recommend.
