SHOGUN Japanese Steakhouse & sushi

Has to be one of the best spots in town for handmade sushi. While we were sitting there we could see the chef at work, he obviously takes his craft very seriously and it shows. Got the “Top Secret” roll it came out on fire and it was absolutely amazing. Next we had the cowboy roll, it was a big hit for us. We had our meal as the samurai dinner, it was fantastic. We even tried the eel for the first time ever, not quite our cup of tea but it was prepared very nicely. We will definitely need to comeback some time for the hibachi!

So me and my family came here for sushi and hibachi food. The hibachi food was very good, our chef even did tricks in the flat grill. He was very engaging as well with food jokes and throwing food for us to catch which my children loved. The sushi however was the down fall, the rice mixed into the sushi was hard and they wasnt elegant looking. The lady bring the drinks did warn us that the usual person that prepares the sushi was not present.

Service was good, but the food quality was poor. The cook scorched the fried rice, and since that was three-quarters of what was on the plate, it gave an overall bad taste to everything. What bothers me the most is the the cook knew he burned the rice and served it anyway. Twice during cooking he moved the rice pile from the center of the cook top and scraped the scorched bits off the griddle into the trash. Other than two slivers of carrot and some onion bits, the "mixed vegetables" were entirely mushrooms. The salmon and steak were cooked well and the quality was good, but the portions were small. I would guess my salmon piece to be only about 4 ounces. The meat was flavored ok, but was drowned out by the burned flavor of the rice. Overall the experience was not worth the price.

2/22/2026 Service was absolutely terrible. The lady upfront with a black mask, was so rude. She never said “hi” or even told us what her name was. When she came up to my table, she literally only said “what do you want?” While The couple in the booth in front of us was writing on their receipt (leaving a tip), she came over and literally was standing over his shoulder as he was filling it out. When giving her a very generous tip despite how poor the service was, I didn’t even get a thank you or a smile. She simply just walked away. Super upset about our service. Will never be back.

Our chefs name was Shawn and the food was delicious. However, the service was definitely disappointing; between being given plastic ware instead of silverware (that was readily available), to having to seek out our server for drink refills, and not receiving our sushi order until after we’d finished eating (although the order had been taken prior to getting drinks). Our party spent almost $200 and the owner was argumentative versus considerate of what transpired.
