“To Go Order (Door Dashed) I usually don’t leave reviews but I have to say, I throughly enjoyed every single bite of sushi tonight. I ordered two rolls, the Crazy California Roll and the Black Tiger Roll. It looked amazing and the price was very reasonable. I most definitely recommend.“

“I moved into The McClaren apts. (awesome place) about 14 months ago and discovered Otto Izakaya early on. Only 2 blocks away for me. Otto is, and has been, my go to place, especially when friends, family or business friends are visiting. Not a sole I have introduced has ever had anything but praises for the experience. If we are a small group, I always encourage dining at the bar. I have no idea who will read this, but people buy from people; and people they enjoy interacting with. I would be totally remiss if I didn't specifically mention bar manager Matt and his team behind the bar. If Matt has ever met a stranger, I missed it, as he has the personality to balance the engagement with customers, while still providing excellent customer service. Also, everything I've tried off the menu is high-grade and fresh! That's a must for me. I'd be slack if I didn't mention the awesome hard working sushi chefs, who are always open to preparing a creation to suit YOUR palate and preferences. As to other regular customers, and just my observation, but like me, they appear to have found a home away from home; a place to be comfortable, chill and let the time spent make a bad day better. I almost never take the time to give a review and especially a compliment; as I sometimes look for the negatives, as it is always so easy to criticize. So, as a native Greenvillian and business (person); and someone who believes and enjoys a five ***** experience that is reasonably priced, give Otto Izakaya a try. Whether you live in the area, or are simply visiting, when you leave you will already be thinking about when you can do this again! If you enjoy an adult beverage, be sure and stop by the bar and ask for Matt, as this master mixologist will want to know exactly what you're looking for. If you read this review and haven't stopped by, you're in for an experience catered to the way you would most enjoy it. And ladies, as I have a daughter in college, so please know whether by yourself, or in a group, you're in a safe place without being hassled and you don't have to look over shoulder (unless there is a stud sitting behind you), because Matt and the supporting staff will have your back so you can relax and enjoy. If you have a chance to meet the owner, please do, as his passion and dedication for excellence in all aspects of the business is instantly captivating. Sorry for the length of this, I was on a roll! No "pun" intended! Give it a try real soon! M.P. 😎“

“They were at fall for Greenville. This was the only stall I walked away from satisfied. I was not satisfied with fall for Greenville this year. I also heard others complaining about how the food this year sucked and was no fall themed at all. Although this stall was the only stall I liked and wanted more from. Everywhere else I tried I walked away disappointed or just didn’t sound good. I seen sushi and thought that’s a safe food to eat. It’s crazy to think I left fall for Greenville hungry. Also another girl walking by said “there isn’t anything speaking to me.” Which I very much agreed with. I shown up hungry and walked by every stall like nope not interested. This stall was so amazing that I am even considering going here instead of my iconic sushi place I’ve been going to for going on 10 years now. Thank you guys for working hard tonight and doing amazing!!“

“We have been going since the 90s. The food is always fresh and the service is always perfect. We celebrated a birthday yesterday (9/21/26) and our server was on point. He didn't miss a thing! He made the birthday girl's night. The only reasn I'm taking off a star is because the table was so small. It would've been better for 4 people instead of 6. It certainly wasn't a deal breaker.
It always feels like going home for a wonderful meal. They are very dear to our family.
**We were sharing a room with another large crowd, so it was a little difficult to hear. Normally that isn't the case.“

“We made it over for the night and wanted sushi. AYCE is usually a better bargain for us, so that is what I looked for. I picked a great option with Sushi Kingdom. Everything from the time we walked in to the time we left was perfect. Friendly, quick service and the sushi was fresh and rolls were flavorful! Would definitely go back here!“

“They served me and my friends this weekend during southeast game exchange. I used to love joy of Tokyo when I frequently visited Greenville while dating my now wife. It's safe to say this place is still amazing. I had the teriyaki chicken and steak.“

“My family and I just happened to wander into the front doors of this wonderful place and we were extremely pleased with prompt, friendly service, relatively affordable pricing (especially considering the area), and exceptionally fresh and wonderful food. The atmosphere was very upscale, but being casually dressed in blue jeans and t-shirts, we still felt very comfortable and welcome. I had the Hibachi Chicken Plate, and she had the Steak Hibachi. We split our Sushi: the “IBM Roll” and “BMW Roll” and words cannot describe how fresh and delectable everything tasted. We were astounded at the quality of food, the speed of service, the friendliness of service and it was like the cook was professionally-trained. Very nice place, if “taste” is what leads you to somewhere new. We loved it and will be back.“

“Came here at 6:09pm told it was going to be 15 minutes. 50 minutes later got sat. Took 20 minutes for anyone to come to the table to get our order. And near 8:00pm still no food. 8:04 asked for the check got the food, rice significantly undercooked, chicken rubbery, over all terrible experience. People who came in after us were seated and got their food before us and left before we even got our food. Absolutely terrible service and terrible tasting food which is a shame because the past few times I came it was really good. This single experience was so bad I am not going back“

“Kanpai Of Tokyo - Greenville, SC has been a family tradition for birthday dinners for over 2 decades. This year as soon as we ordered I let them know that we some dietary restrictions (eggs for me, gluten for my young child). I told the server my daughter couldn’t have soy sauce thinking it would be easier than explaining gluten free/celiac. The server responded asking if she needed gluten free. When the chef came over he cleaned the grill and made my daughter’s food first to ensure there was no cross contamination. The server brought our salads out and the chef quickly stopped him from handing my daughter her salad with ginger dressing informing me that it had gluten in it and asking if ranch was ok instead. He realized after cooking her food that he had cracked an egg on the grill for my daughter’s food and apologized and cleaned the grill again before cooking my food. He also made sure to tell me which sauces contained gluten to keep my daughter safe. This was by far the most stellar service we have had in a restaurant since her celiac diagnosis and we will definitely be back“

“Good value for the price. I had the hibachi vegetables which was a generous portion of broccoli, onions and carrots. The sushi was simple and rolled well. Plenty of staff however when one person was taking a phone order the cooks were at the counter and ignored me until the cashier could hand me sauce.“
