Every dish was a real treat. The flavors and textures were carefully crafted, making each course feel special and inventive. The ingredients were clearly fresh and high quality, which made the meal truly memorable and enjoyable from start to finish
Went with my 8 yr old daughter for a night out. Service was excellent, waiter was great. We had hot stone wagyu A5 - great, spicy tuna crispy rice - delicious, A+, hamachi ponzu - great, a spicy tuna roll (good), pork gyoza (good), then a few slices of salmon nigiri and fatty tuna sashimi. Also had a "this is pen" cocktail - pretty good. Food came out super fast and was what you would hope for in a Morimoto restaurant. Ambience is everything here. When my daughter spilled her soda, 3 staff came to help. When she dropped her napkin, someone noticed and got her a new one. It was a great night. Will go back.
The food was phenomenal from start to finish. Every piece of fish melted in my mouth. We sat at the bar and still had a welcoming and friendly experience. The bartenders were attentive without being pushy, and the atmosphere felt warm and relaxed. The place looked like a fancy space ship in the best way, which made the whole experience feel fun and unique. Everything we ordered was fresh and full of flavor. This was one of the best dining experiences I have had in a long time, and I would return without hesitation.
Been here twice. Once for my birthday then on Valentine's Day 2019. Omakse was perfect. Waiter was knowledgeable, food was delicious. Atmosphere perfect. Second time we ordered from the menu.
We had such a great dinner at Morimoto. We started with the hot stone Wagyu — it was incredible. The beef practically melted in your mouth, and cooking it on the hot stone right at our table made it such a fun experience. We also ordered the spicy tuna crispy rice — so good! The tuna was fresh and had just the right amount of heat, perfectly balanced with the crispy rice. My husband had a Japanese beer and my 11-year-old son got a mocktail called the Mandarin Ginger, which he said was really tasty. For our main entrée, we got the crab fried rice with the broth on the side (which we were glad we did, since the broth was pretty spicy). The rice came out piping hot, perfectly seasoned, and packed with generous chunks of king crab. The broth had some imitation crab, and overall, the dish was delicious. We also tried three sushi rolls — shrimp tempura, California, and eel & avocado. The shrimp tempura roll was nice and crispy, though it came with green beans, which we didn’t love. The California roll was honestly one of the best we’ve ever had — made with real crab and plenty of it — and the eel and avocado roll was excellent too. For dessert, we got the fiery flourless chocolate cake. The presentation was amazing — they pour flaming rum over a chocolate dome, which melts to reveal a hidden layer of miso caramel ice cream. Underneath was rich chocolate cake, chocolate mousse, caramelized bananas, and a crunchy graham cracker crust. It was delicious! The restaurant itself is beautiful, with lighting that changes colors throughout the meal. Service was friendly, professional, and attentive. Overall, we had a fantastic experience at Morimoto and would highly recommend it!
