“this place slays. I wish they were open more. I would come here every day if I could. but I can’t because they’re not open every day. the bar staff is so friendly. I wish izzy’s was bigger so I could bring everyone I know. But it’s small. the cocktails are delicious. thanks for reading.“

“Ordered Shiso for delivery on Saturday night after reading some glowing reviews online and it did not disappoint - will be my new go-to for sushi takeout. Got the Chef's choice sushi and tuna/aji sushi and every piece was amazing and so fresh. Also got the spicy tuna crispy rice (don't have a photo) but would skip this next time, it just doesn't travel well. Can't wait to try Shiso in person!“

“Our server Martin was very attentive. We had the calamari app which was plain w goat cheese and we requested the spicy peppers on the side. The zucchini crab cake was amazing! The sea urchin pasta was also delicious and unique. I would go back here.“

“This place has the absolute BEST chicken ramen I have ever had. Such perfect broth, chicken seasoned in an ethnic indoasian blend, which is consistent every time I go! The menu is diverse and every item I have had has been delicious, including the specialty sushi rolls! This has been my go to spot for a year now for a casual meal or delivery and I would recommend anyone to try it!“

“Holy moly what a find. Stopped in after a long day working on our new house where we did not have it in us to cook. Tried 2 different bento boxes and were blown away by:
-portion size (so much enclosed the box had to be rubber banded shut, we ate on the leftovers for several meals)
-price (each of our selections was less than $20)
-quality (new favorite spring roll in the area, crispy coating of batter on the bento and shrimp, fresh fluffy rice, fabulous miso soup, I could go on)
-customer service (they wrote a sweet note thanking us for our business! It was placed into one of the bags we were given along with a takeout menu)
-speed (for the volume of food we were given, the wait was very reasonable. We walked in and ordered, and I think it took maybe 20 mins for us to be handed our food)“

“I figure I can support a neighbor business 30 feet away from my salon work. Hi Neighbor! I've been ordering 4 rolls of shrimp tempura n garden salad for my 17 year old daughter, sometimes i have to fight her for 1 piece of her sushi even tho I did paid it but she'll let me eat the garden salad. But anyway I swear the food taste fresh n has really good portion. LOVE IT!“

“I was skeptical of all 5 stars reviews but this place was absolutely incredible. Definitely the best sushi I’ve had in the area and it’s not close. Everything we tried (6 rolls, teriyaki, sashimi) was delicious and very fresh. I would highly highly recommend you come give it a try. Get the crispy rice roll.“

“Finally! Philly gets a high end sushi restaurant that is actually good. Rolls were very fresh and tasty. Seared scallop special was so good and unique. My husband loved the dry aged salmon flight. Tony our server was very attentive and did an amazing job. Highly recommend!“

“Abel was a very hospitable host. The rest of the wait staff was okay. It was Valentine's Day, maybe that played a part in our service experience. The edamame came steamed and lightly salted. The Tuna tataki was delicious. My husband enjoyed his king salmon belly sashimi the most, he was happy with the others, but the king salmon was his favorite-it came on a bamboo ladder beautifully presented. My spicy rainbow roll came presented creatively on a bamboo leaf~adorned with a flower, the flavors were good. We ordered a chocolate mousse, what we got was more akin to a cheesecake as far as density- that was disappointing. I was looking for something light and delicate- I would not recommend ordering the mousse.“

“My evening at Morimoto‘s will be the best memory of my visit to Philadelphia! If I was a local, I’d be in to have their Wasabi Watercress Caesar salad at least once a week. Brilliant! Service was excellent, all the food was lovely, and the restaurant itself, with its soft jewel-tone colors and wave-like forms, was a delight to be in.“

“We happened upon this gem purely by chance. We had an amazing meal from A-Z (!!!) The sushi is phenomenal; sit at the newly designed sushi bar in the back and enjoy unique daily catches that come in through the connections the owner has with local fishermen. The restaurant is also known for their aged steaks, and Kobe prime rib, which we will try next time. I had the miso black bass and it was one of the best flavors with fish I have ever had. The broth had such a delicate shiitake mushroom flavor, which I loved. I literally couldn’t have had enough of this delicate, delicious dish. I could have had two orders and eaten it all! I think this dish epitomizes what the word UMAMI means. I also had the sautéed mushroom extravaganza, a treat for every taste bud of incredible flavors melted with a delicate sauce. My husband had their unique collection of sushi and sashimi choices that were all enjoyed at their stunningly beautiful sushi bar, complete with two young, passionate chefs who love what they do, and treasure their personal designs of the fish and rolls. All the rolls are presented in this great wooden cradle design, which I thought was so unique and functional. The owner was all smiles and genuinely happy to have had us try his new restaurant. I recommend it highly for either an exceptional steak meal (all are btw, so reasonably priced so order them for sure), or the traditional sushi. You won’t be disappointed. This will be our weekly go-to restaurant and we are counting the days until we will return, which actually will be next Tuesday the 9th! Bravo to the whole team at Umami and thank you for your passion for Japanese food, and for doing it right from A-Z. We will see you soon! Debbie and Gene“

“got ramen and sushi doordashed.
was overall pleased with what we got ! the sushi was good (spicy crab and salmon rolls), had a decent kick to it.
ramen was pleasant, the egg was good, noodles were a bit thin in mine (? they were different from my husband's, they weren't gross, had an interesting texture), but the broth was smooth and spicy. 8/10, would get again“

“Confession: I didn't get a single photo because the food was so unbelievably good and I was starving!
Every bite, from the yellowtail jalapeño appetizer to the spicy salmon roll, was pure satisfaction .
Pro Tip: Order the House Hot Sake!“
“This place is a rare gem! Fantastic. They have the freshest fish and seafood, vegetables, and fruits. The exceptional quality doesn't stop there. You have knowledgeable people to help you create masterpiece fish-based meals. I wrote to them by email early in the morning about what I needed. I received a quick response with assurance that I could get the head and bones needed for stock and a sturdy white fish for the Belgian stew (Waterzooie). Not just any fish heads and bones, but the choice known to make the BEST stock: flounder. With this as the base of a fantastic stock, Philly Lobster had beautiful monkfish filets for the stew. This, too, is the best choice for Waterzooie. John at Philly Lobster had done the online inquiry and knew exactly what I needed. The results were outstanding and I could not have done it without the wonderful help from John at Philly Lobster. It is a small, priceless business I value. There is no other place like it on the Main Line.“

“This is a great Karaoke spot. The room is quite big compared to other places. The food is good too. They have a lot of variety. They messed up mojito with some peach syrup and fixed it later. The overall experience is great and good to go for karaoke with large group and still have a private space.“

“Rolls are a good size and are very full, so you get your money’s worth. The sushi roll lunch deals are great and I 10/10 recommend! The spicy kani roll tasted slightly fishy (nothing too off putting), but the spicy tuna and shrimp tempura rolls are delicious.“

“I ordered several party trays from Tokyo Sushi and it was an amazing experience.
Everything was incredibly fresh, and the presentation was beautiful. As soon as I put the trays out, everyone was impressed!
The staff was very friendly and helpful, and there were so many great options to choose from. Everyone at the party found something they loved, and the vegetarian options were especially well done and thoughtfully prepared, which I really appreciated.
Great quality, variety, and service all around!
I would absolutely order from them again for future gatherings and highly recommend their catering.“

“My first ramen of the year and it was a yummy one for a snowy day. We didnt have to wait for a table even though we arrived an hour before closing. They have lots of options to pick from but I went with a classic Tonkatsu ramen with pork and a Ramune Melon drink on the side. The broth and noodles were nice but the pork was a little dry.
I would love to go back and try some of their sushi as well“

“Well made & seasoned. Created quickly with precision. My daughter asked for her 13th Birthday dinner to be ordered from here. They even have a Birthday roll which was fantastic. They gave the birthday girl an extra pastry & what we can only describe as a special Birthday roll/cake. See pic. Highly recommend.“

“Exactly what you're looking for if you want take-out sushi, or just a quick sushi bite. It's not going to blow you away or anything, but it's GREAT portions, for a very solid price, and IMO, as I said, exactly what we're looking for when we want take-out sushi. We will definitely be coming here again. Oh, and the people working there are quiet but extremely nice and respectful. Can't wait to come back.“

“Got the shrimp teriyaki bento box. Portion was massive. Came with some tempura pieces including a big shrimp tempura. The shrimp was cooked good on both. Rice was cooked good. Not dry or too wet. Came with some dumplings too. Would order again! Maybe would get beef next time. There’s a bunch of different options.“

“A gem in south philly and definitely the best sushi in the area. Super friendly service, always easy to get a table, and BYOB is a plus. The salmon lover's sushi entree is my go-to and is accompanied by a salad and soup. Haven't been disappointed with any of the rolls - always the perfect rice-to-fish ratio and all of the ingredients are super fresh.“

“The three roll special is an obvious great value, but the whole menu is reasonable for the portion sizes you get. The Tuna Dumplings are amazing and the special rolls on the white board are always delicious. This is one of the few places that can get fresh wasabi, although, now that people know about it, it tends to sell out quick.“

“One of the best Japanese hand rolls I’ve had in so long! I can’t believe this place exists in Chinatown. Everything was so tasty, especially the miso cod hand roll. We also liked the sweet potato roll as well. Somehow we liked the wagyu one the least. But overall, very remarkable place!“

“Nestled in the charming heart of Chestnut Hill, Tokyo Sushi at 8221 Germantown Ave offers a truly wonderful dining experience. The location itself is fantastic – perfectly situated to capture the vibrant, yet relaxed, atmosphere of the avenue.
Step inside, and you're immediately greeted by an ambiance that strikes the perfect balance between hip and cozy. The decor exudes a wonderful simplicity and cleanliness that contributes to a warm and inviting atmosphere. A real highlight is the small, yet transparent, open kitchen, which allows you to watch the father-and-son duo meticulously preparing your sushi – a testament to their dedication behind the craft.
But of course, the real star of the show is the food. From the moment your order arrives, it's clear that this restaurant prides itself on using very fresh ingredients. Every piece of sushi is a testament to this commitment – the fish gleams with top quality, and the vegetables are crisp and vibrant. The texture of each roll and nigiri is simply spot-on, especially Sushi On the Beach, a perfect harmony of tender fish, perfectly seasoned rice, and delicate nori. And the taste? Absolutely delicious. Each bite is a burst of clean, exquisite flavors that showcase the quality of the ingredients and the skill of the chefs.
Whether you're a sushi aficionado or just looking for a fantastic meal in a wonderful setting, this Chestnut Hill gem is an absolute must-visit. Highly recommended!“

“Excellent quality sushi. Very fresh and tasty. I told the server I was gluten free and she was knowledgeable...they also have gluten free soy sauce. I had the Treasure Roll (not on the menu but I saw it online), a Spicy Tuna Roll, and a Green Salad (Ginger Dressing was 10/10). Definitely a bit on the pricier side but worth it.“

“My third time back and Yanaga, and it didn't disappoint! I love the mini tasting they offer - such a great deal since I can't always spring for the full omakase. The sushi is fresh and delicious, the cocktails are creative and complex, and the happy hour deals are so worth it! I tried the wagyu hot dog for the first time and even though I came there for the raw fish, that was a standout menu item for me.
The ambiance is laid back and fun, never pretentious. The waitresses and friendly and knowledgeable and never made me feel rushed.
I already can't wait to be back!“

“The veggie dumplings and the seared tuna with cucumber and carrot salad were delicious. Tried my friend's California roll, which was good, too. Nice grab and go selection and you can order what you like if it's not in their refrigerated case.“
