Great date night experience for our preference of sushi, veggie potstickers, and miso soup. Danielle, our server did a tremendous job! We never were in need of anything as she was on top of it and she made sure to offer good recommendations for new favorite dishes. Dishes were beautifully plated and tasted even better.
Great Chinese restaurant and affordable prices. Food taste was good and spicy level of the Mongolian Beef was also good. Service was fast and gentle but I got it late at night and they were tired. I was will like to go back during lunch hours and taste sine other food from their extensive menu. Over all the food was satisfying and fulfilling.
We went to have dinner here. We ordered chicken Pad Thai, seafood Rice. They’re delicious. Serving Staff are attentive, friendly and helpful. Nicely decorated asian motif restaurant.
A really great Asian Fusion restaurant. The portions here are really quite large. Everything was delicious. I had a light green tea to start. For apps, My table had crab Rangoons (very large, nor greasy, and filled with a creamy crab rich filling...I did not have any, but my table ate them all), miso soup and Wong tong noodles. The miso soup is pictured. The soup was warm, lots of spinach. I next tried a single won ton strip. My parents really enjoyed the won ton soup. I ordered the dinner bento box. It came with the miso soup, an order of sushi (I selected the sweet potato sushi w. avocado), I selected chicken katsu (lighted breaded), the bento box came with greens, eggplant/green beans that were pickled, white rice, dumplings, and fruit (lychee and pineapple). It was such a lot of food! It was really great. There were chopsticks on the table. A little pouring ceramic of soy sauce. The sushi roll came with 6 pieces. The plate was very green Wasabi and ginger. The sweet potato sushi was really interesting. It had a great texture. The chicken katsu was not greasy and a lot of chicken. The fruit was palate cleaning. The people next to us got a hot pot that looked really fun. I went to the bathroom. Really clean with unique colorful fixtures. Our server was very attentive, but left us able to converse. The night ended with a fortune cookie. My fortune is that I will visit here next time I breeze through Ellesworth!
Great food, both quantity and quality!
I’ve eaten at Shinbashi for 11 years. Not only is the staff great but the food is excellent. The sushi is always fresh and delicious. I also love that the staff adds beautiful flowers and fruits on the plates and drinks. Highly recommend!
Sitting at the sushi bar made for immediate service. I was even handed my rolls directly from the Chef. The food was delicious. I order the 3 rolls lunch special which allows for any 3 choices off the Sushi Roll List which was quite extensive. And comes with a Soup or salad starter.
Dropped in for some sushi on a day trip to the area. Sushi was great! But the real surprise was the coconut shrimp. It was fried excellently and the sauce had an extra little citrus tone. In addition to these it came resting on a bed of honeydew melon and was prepared so beautifully. Would recommend for Asian cuisine.
