Nice local spot for ramen and sushi. Nice and classic staple that is good. Nice and quick service and always available room. Can’t go wrong with a roll here and for a good price. Overall recommend

Tenzan 52 is a cozy, family-run Japanese restaurant that feels like a neighborhood staple—warm, welcoming, and consistently satisfying. I stopped in after a long day exploring the East Side, and the moment I sat down, I felt at ease. The staff greeted me like a regular, and the menu was full of comforting classics and creative rolls. I ordered the spicy tuna roll and a bowl of miso soup, and both were fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. It’s not flashy or trendy, but that’s exactly what I loved about it. Tenzan feels like the kind of place you return to again and again, not just for the food, but for the feeling of being taken care of.

Apart from usually forgetting to include spoons when I order soup with my takeout, I haven't had any complaints. The food has always been delicious and I look forward to further exploring the menu!

Came here with some coworkers on a Friday Afternoon. Fast service, it wasn’t that busy. I ordered the lunch special Chicken Teriyaki. Delicious carrot ginger dressing on a small salad, hefty portion of rice and tender chicken breast on a bed of sautéed vegetables, filled my belly. Very good food. Hearty portion. Thanks!

I have a soy allergy and it is extremely hard for me to find amazing Japanese food that can accommodate my allergy. They went out of their way to make me a special soup without soy, the service was impeccable! We also had the sashimi special which was amazing! My mom came to the restaurant a bit later and we ordered her a soup and as soon as she got here they made her a whole new soup so it could be completely fresh! I could not say better things about this restaurant! AMAZING SERVICE, FOOD, & ATMOSPHERE!!! 😁🙏 Leo is the absolute best!!
