I took my son to Sushi Jin for his 14th birthday as a birthday gift while my wife was out of town. We both got the Omikase, along with the uni flight and a dessert. The food was outstanding in every regard and the best sushi I have had (including Japan). My son loved it and enjoyed the experience (yes, he appreciates fancy food, as we cook with clean ingredients every night at home except on special occasions when we eat out). The service was excellent and each course was well presented and explained by the chef. Most importantly, the fish was super fresh with a variety of flavors. I will take my wife there next time we have a special occasion. Highly recommended.

Everything was pretty good from atmosphere ,the food to interaction with the chef sitting at the bar. The only complaints I have is their wine or sake list is quite pricey and the Omakase last course which was a bowl of hot soup. I wish it was in a ceramic bowl instead of a plastic bowl. I would have given it five stars if they had completed the entire course with the right dishware. Eating out of plastic anything is such a turn off and a health hazard. I hope they would realize it and change it one of these days.

Fantastic as always. Presentation, delivery, taste, freshness, ambience are just right. My parents loved the uni tasting and my sister and I liked the mackerel best.

Worst omakase experience ever. The rice was just not right, tasted like the leftover rice you reheat at home. Service and staff were great though! But yeah the entire 14/15 dish omakase was NOT good and that's really hard to do and for the price we paid, awful experience. Maybe it was just a bad night but definitely not coming back ever again.

Friendly staff, with just mid-tier sushi. For the price point, i was expecting more. Ordered tempura on the side, which was also decent.

Highlights in the omakase include grilled sweet fish, shima aji, young snapper, saba, and the corn miso soup! Delicious meal.

I ordered the omakase. It's quite good but the nigiri they included in the set was disappointing. When you have nigiri on the menu for a la carte order ranging from ~$8.5 per to ~$17 per, I would have expected the omakase to include some of the most expensive and high-end options such as uni, wagyu, amaebi ($17 per), o-toro ($14 per), etc. However, I got none of those and most of the nigiri included in the set was on the low-price end, e.g. saba (for $9 if I order the nigiri separately), which made me feel I should have just ordered a la carte all the way as opposed to the omakase... It was my 2nd time visiting, and towards the end I remembered I felt the same way when I first visited during their soft opening years ago... but I completely forgot about it until I was reminded again with my more recent experience. With that, I decided to write this review. I don't think I'd go back, or at least I would not order their omakase again.

Small place so reservations are a must. We ordered the omakase tasting menu as an anniversary celebration and the food and service were excellent.

The overall experience was good, the food was tasty and the flow for Omakase was decent. We added the Uni which total per person was $200. I would love it if they add a few more nigiri to the Omakase menu alone is $150 per person. Is it worth it? Maybe for special occasions.

We love this place. Been here twice for a few special occasional. Also recommended it to others and they equally enjoyed it. My cousin has probably been here 4+ times as well
