Best Japanese Restaurants in New Tampa

My experience at Jackson’s was nothing short of amazing. I started off by running a little late, afraid that my reservation would be canceled. When I called the restaurant to advise of my late arrival. The manager informed me that he would mark me down as coming in late and told me to take my time. I appreciated the fact that there was no rush and that I could still enjoy my evening without worrying about my reservation being canceled. It was already a stressful day and evening and arriving late and missing my reservation would’ve ruined my night. I appreciate the staff being so nice and understanding. 10 out of 10 would definitely recommend. The food was amazing. That atmosphere was wonderful and calm and the service was exceptional.

A fun very busy place on Valentines day. Staff are quite friendly and make an effort to make sure your meal is perfect. If you have an allergy, or sensitivity they can accomodate you. Chose the steak and shrimp combo, my son had the chicken, shrimp and steak option. He would pick chicken and shrimp the next time, or upgrade for $8 to the filet. My wife enjoyed the scallops and shrimp. Popular place in Tampa several locations are available within a 20 mile radius. A single protein like chicken was very affordable. Lots of younger student couples took home a box for a second meal. Noodles, rice, along with chicken was around $30 each I believe, if you drink just water. A decent cocktail list is available, we tried the red sangria and the kobe breeze. Quite refreshing. Our three person total with the 18% mandatory tip was just over $200. We ate very well and chose more expensive options. We would go again.

We were there on an early reservation valentines day. We had several appetizers, salad and sushi. we ordered as we went and never felt rushed. Our server, McKenzie, was friendly and efficient she had no issue with us ordering multiple times. I watched her work multiple tables and she was very high energy. I also noted that when she was busy that other staff members pitched in and brought our drink and sushi. The food and drinks were very good. I'm glad that there is now a nicer steakhouse in Lutz.

We were celebrating my son’s birthday and the entire staff made him feel special. The food and drinks were all amazing and the price was reasonable. Our chef was super funny and cooked our food to perfection. From the time we arrived until the time we left, we were pleased with the atmosphere, the drinks, the efficiency of the staff and most importantly the deliciousness of the food.

Our party arrived at different times and we were seated as we arrived. They brought water and we were able to order appetizers to hold us until the last person showed up. The food was really good. Sushi was great. Bento box was great. It was a nice experience.
