    We wanted to try Morimoto's for a long time where an opportunity presented itself and took my family to celebrate a milestone event. Prior to the occasion, I perused through the multitude of pictures that were posted by previous diners. With the help of the dinner menu from the website, I created a litany of dishes that were unique that I want to try. The intent was to create my version on an omakase where there was enough food from each dish for my family to sample and taste. Our server, Cristal, did an outstanding job of explaining the Morimoto sake and flight sake samplers along with answering questions on the various mixed libations. The staff was also very knowledgeable in describing the dishes we ordered and brought to our table from the kitchen. Overall, my family had a great time eating and drinking in an environment full of Japanese art and cultural items that reflects Chef Morimoto's proud heritage. If you want a place to celebrate a milestone or just stop for a drink with an appetizer or two, Morimoto of Napa is the number one choice.

    We were seated as soon as we arrived, and we arrived early, by the manager (Jeff). The table we were given was in a great spot and comfortable. The service (Paula) was outstanding. She was very helpful on choices and we felt she was at the table when we needed her. She was able to read us pretty well. My guests are difficult diners and she handled them with a very professional approach. The dishes were all great. Everyone loved their choices. Overall, a win for home team!!!
