    Waited >40 mins for our table despite reservation…. But the manager made it up to us with some free appetizers and our waitress was outstanding so they did a good job of making the evening fun and tasty despite the wait.

    We went for my sisters birthday and everyone had a lovely time! Some in the party were a little less familiar/hesitant with Japanese cuisine and ended up being the most impressed!

    We have high standards and thought Morimoto was ok. Our server was not attentive. We had to constantly search for her. The sushi was average - have had better. And the rock shrimp was too sweet. Not worth the price.
