Our server was wonderful. We come here several times a year (a birthday dinner favorite for our adult kids), and spend about $700-$900, it would have been nice to have heat on the patio. Our servers warm smile made up for it though.
We always enjoy the food at Aozora. I prefer to eat outdoors mainly because I find the restaurant very noisy but this time of year doesn't lend itself to eating outside. We find the service slow but the food is delivered quickly once the order is placed. We tried G Dragon roll for the 1st time and it was outstanding! It will become one of our regular requests.
We love the food here. Had the ribs & chicken & couple other dishes. Service excellent as is food
While we've been repeat customers and have previously enjoyed the food, our most recent visit was very disappointing. I bit down on a small rock in the pickled cucumber, which impacted one of my molars. This required an unexpected trip to the dentist to ensure there was no serious damage. Fortunately, my tooth was fine, but it was a very unpleasant experience for a night out.
Special recognition to Brianna & Ryan! Our first time trying Japanese Whiskey and what better place to start! We're definitely going back perhaps sit at the bar next time!
Really fun sushi spot! The rolls were all unique and tasty, and the whiskey drinks hit just right. Definitely coming back.

We love their spicy edamame and their fresh and creative rolls. Unique cocktails too. Service was friendly, but a little inattentive. Our impression was that they were a bit understaffed for a busy Friday evening. We got outdoor seating because indoors is too loud for us. We've had patio seating before, which was good. This time we were on an enclosed section of parking lot. Less nice, but ok.
Excellent Food and Service. Atmoshere is calm and inviting. Staff is friendly and engaging
It seemed our waiter had too many tables. When he was there, he was great... but he didn't check on us for 2nd drinks, water was empty, dirty plates sat for longer than they should have. All-and-all we had to hunt people down when we needed something. Food has gone downhill a bit... not as fresh, and hot rolls were cold when they hit the table. Prices are high... so you'd expect a lot more for the price-points. Use to be good. Manager seems burned-out and doesn't care as much to pay attention to what's happening. Owners in China.... so downhill you go!
Food was not up to normal standards . We have been here before and it may have been an off night for the kitchen. The hostess was not very welcoming or particularly friendly.

Love Aozora's and will return!🩷 Took our granddaughter there for her birthday and she loved it as well.
Food was great and this one of our favorite spots for Japanese food. We chose to sit outside and were unaware that meant sitting in the parking lot. Inside is much better
The Tonkatsu was splendid. A huge serving that will be lunch the next day. So tasty! That is my go to order there. The Tempura shrimp was great as well as the pot stickers. Tried a Japanese vodka in my dirty martini which was most enjoyable.
We had a great time! Our only suggestion would to be to have cushions on those hard wood benches and maybe some fans!
We arrived at 8.50 pm and got sent away stating the restaurant is closed.
The server was non-courteous in doing so, upon pointing out the incorrect timing posted on their website and Google showed no remorse. Definitely a wrecker for our evening.
