An exquisite Japanese restaurant where it’s so easy to feel at home, surrounded by warmth and comfort. The atmosphere is absolutely wonderful—quiet, cozy, and intimate. The waitress’s caring attention feels so genuine and rare. I truly felt as if I were in Japan, a place I love deeply. The food is exceptionally delicious and extraordinarily fresh. I enjoyed the fatty hamachi sashimi with yuzu chili sauce and the sake sashimi. Everything was simply beyond my expectations. I will definitely be back again and again. ❤️

SUPER SAD SASHIMI I really really really want to like Sho and have given it several chances even though my husband is firm it is mediocre at best. Sho makes many of their items “in house” and I appreciate housemade grub so much. Unfortunately, I think most of their dishes are overpriced and not executed properly. A toddler could’ve cut the fish better than whoever cut mine on the evening of 9/25. Sashimi (and sushi for that matter) is supposed to be delicate and definitely not a thick chunk of fish. $12 and $13 for the “sashimi” pictured below is a bonafide rip-off. I love me a good karaage and was looking forward to their garlicky version. They nailed the fry and chicken was super moist. I’m still puzzled on how it was flavorless, though. Meaning there was no seasoning and definitely n

Good, not great for a 4.5-star spot. Sushi and salmon hand roll were fresh and well-made. Katsu curry was crispy but the sauce felt one-note. Udon broth lacked depth; agedashi tofu sauce was alright. Friendly service and casual vibe, but details and flavors need tightening. Overall: solid for a sushi fix, but I’d peg it at 3.8–4.0/5 rather than 4.5.

I'm from California and I've now had the chance to visit Sho three times in the last year while visiting a friend. Absolutely lovely experience every time. Delicious food, super sweet and attentive staff, and the vibes are so comfortable. I ask to be taken here every time I visit!

The food was really good! We went for their kitchen dishes and their rolls, and both were great. They also have kids’ meals, which was a nice bonus for our family. The staff is very prompt and attentive, and they have outdoor seating too. Our favorite was the Devouring Flame Roll, definitely recommend trying it
