I'm from Japan and this is probably the best Japanese food in Cleveland. It's better than Shuhei (2nd best) and everything else in Cleveland isn't real Japanese food/isn't ran by Japanese ppl. Would recommend for the food!

First time here, heard great things about this place. However, disapppointing. The Shrimp Yaki Udon has great flavor BUT I barely have any Shrimp for $20. I got 5 small Shrimp, not a good portion at all for that price. The flavor is really nice and light but the portion is not good for the money. The side is fried rice is very bland with no taste. Not sure if I'll go back.

Very very impressed with this place!! I am from south Mississippi, and I had never had Japanese curry. I had the chicken one, hot and it was absolutely amazing!! It was very similar to southern smothered pork chops in gravy!! The hostess was very friendly and very responsive!! I would comeback just for service alone!!

We really wanted to like this place. Unfortunately, the food wasn’t very good, both in terms of taste and appearance. Veggie tempura was stuck together into monolithic and flavorless lump. Sushi was sloppily made and overpriced. Diner-quality Japanese food with premium-casual price points.

The salmon teriyaki was excellent & I also loved the white rice, fresh veggies it came with along with the delicious side salad! The california roll sushi & avocado sushi were great too!!

Great place! I’m not from the area and I met some friends here on a whim. We enjoyed it immensely. Highly recommend l!
I loved this restaurant when I lived in Solon. I have been a customer since they where by the Richmond Mall long time ago. The owners are so nice. Best sushi around. Great Bento Boxes. And great authentic Japanese food. I always go when I'm in the area. Yummy !!! Highly recommend

Shinano Sushi Bar & Japanese Restaurant is an understated masterpiece. No heavy ornamented pictures on the walls and no Koi in a pool or the like.It simply concentrates its art to meticulous attention to detail and the delicate blending of flavors.My wife and I, culinary identical twins, always order the same thing. We decided upon the Bento Box with the tempura chicken and shrimp tempura combo.Our bubbly, courteous waitress was a bundle of enthusiasm. The lemonade was there in a flash, followed by a delicious Wonton Ko soup. Besides setting up your stomach, a poorly constructed soup can sour the mood.Most astounding was the portion of the box. Artistically laid out in the limiting confines of the box, you are delighted with a Japanese smorgasbord, excuse the strained metaphor, but your taste buds will forget the semantic faux pas and applaud the chef. I bet you can't eat it all and you'll make the waitress pack it all up for tomorrow's supper. It's that good!!Walking to pay your reasonable bill, it's nice to have neighborly "Goodbye" by the owner. Real small town warmth with "You'al come back... You hear?!!!Back again.... We never really left!Dr. R. Sevayega

Food was amazing especially the volcano sushi. The workers are very nice and attentive. The prices are decent and worth for what you get. The only complaint I have is that on the cups, there were some small stains on the outsides but the rest of the plates, spoons, and other utensils were very clean. The place is decorated nicely and the bathrooms are really clean. I've heard that the place can be busy but I've never experienced it being too busy, just in case I suggest going near opening time. Also if you go early enough they don't check for reservation. Overall, I'd come to this place again.

The roll was good yet, tiny for $14. I wish I had taken a picture. 4 of the small pieces had a tiny piece of snow crab and avocado. 2 had a tiny piece of shrimp and avocado. A dusting of egg roe on outside. I imagine food cost was less than $3 for sure. Also, last time I was there they charged me $2.00 for hot water and when I asked they said, nothing we can do about that. Just be aware.
