Stem Japanese Eatery offers an exceptional dining experience with attentive and knowledgeable servers who cater to dietary restrictions. The restaurant features a variety of small dishes, including the popular Wagyu Tataki Salad, Sablefish, and Miso Cheese Eggplant, as well as an impressive nigiri omakase showcasing high-quality, imported fish from Tokyo. With a cozy ambiance and seasonal menu changes, Stem Japanese Eatery is a must-visit, and reservations are recommended.
Customers have praised the restaurant's impressive selection of Japanese whiskey and well-crafted cocktails. The food quality is generally solid, with unique and flavorful dishes. However, some have noted that the prices may not fully reflect the quality. The service is consistently excellent, and the people who run the place are described as charming.
While not every dish may hit the mark, the restaurant's signature hand rolls, particularly the bluefin tuna hand rolls, seem to be a consistent highlight. The Tempura and Miso Sable Collar are also customer favorites, with the salad featuring warm wild mushrooms being another popular choice.
