    Fresh Spring Rolls (Shrimp)
    Mike K.

    This was my friend and my 2nd time to this place. Both times the service and food were very good plus value. The restaurant itself and facilities seem clean and nice overall. Good selection of Sushi which tastes fresh and tasty. Each time we went during the day at which time they have deals where they supply Soup and / or Salad which is nice.

    Danessa D.

    Very pleased with this place. Food was delicious and fish was very fresh. Sushi rolls were well made with flavors I haven't gotten anywhere else. The customer service was a little off with the takeout server being impatient and not helpful, but it could've been an off day. I'll check it out again to see if this is the norm.

    Visiting and drinking a beer! Stop by. Try them out! The owner is very friendly. Excellent service and food. I will definitely come back. This was a good discovery. Gerardo Luna, award winning photographer

    This is hands-down my favorite sushi restaurant. Food is great, fish is fresh, and they have a large variety to choose from. Also a nice atmosphere, I bring my friends and family in often and everyone always leaves satisfied.

    Piper, our server was fun, informative, and fabulous! Ask her about Tora, It's the belly section of tuna and is awesome.

    Piper, our server was fun, informative, and fabulous! Ask her about Tora, It's the belly section of tuna and this Bistro's version is complete with caviar on top.

    I came here one day on a whim, but since my first visit ive been a regular here at least once a week. The prices are very reasonable and they use really high quality products. The ambiance inside is really calm and its a great place to go with friends or study by yourself. I always get the sushi lunch box off their lunch menu and the sushi and sashimi dinner off the dinner menu and it's always amazing!!! Also make sure to get the ginger tea! It's really good and the owner makes it from scratch!

    As a sushi consumer for more than 40 years I seldom hesitate to try a place that is new to me. Quite often I walk out once I see the selection in the counter box. If what I see pleases me or I notice something special, I will stay. What attracted me was a chalkboard that listed Sweet Shrimp and a couple types of fish belly. I also noticed a specialty roll that I found very intriguing. When they told me the shrimp included the head, I was hooked. Their Toro was just ok. $15 for a couple small slices, not something I would order again. The Salmon Belly I liked much better, silky smooth with generous cuts. The star was the Sweet Shrimp. A succulent and tasty treasure that almost melted in my mouth. The crunchy head battered and cooked to perfection. As is customary, I tried the Tempura Shrimp and liked it as well. A very light batter, just a tad oily, that lets you experience the shrimp flavor. A different version that I found appealing. I did not try the roll I wanted because I was full. A complimentary Miso Soup and Spring Roll were a nice touch. The service was very good, they were patient, helpful, attentive and friendly throughout. I will be coming back. Come get you some.

    This local restaurant in the small shopping plaza in North Tampa is a delight! The sushi chef has the freshest fish locally. The waiter and the owner always come over and check on us. The food is delicious. It's priced right friendly atmosphere. It can be very quiet during the week, which is fabulous if you want an intimate dinner. All the food is fresh fresh fresh! Did notice a few items for sale behind the counter in the back from Nepal handstitched.

    Sashimi. Very good & fresh
    Heather N.

    The sashimi & sushi rolls were very good. Fresh & tasty! The only one I didn't like was the uni (I normally like it but the flavor & texture were a little off putting). The service was friendly but a little awkward. Either way, it was a nice dinner.

    Spicy Tuna
    Dj L.

    Came here on a Sunday afternoon, the place was pretty slow. We were the only ones seated. The restaurant is located in the plaza with the Michael's. Service was good and was not slow. Decided to try the pot stickers and spicy tuna roll. Pot stickers came pretty quickly and were cooked well, very delicious. The sushi rolls then came later and I tried the spicy tuna. To be honest, I don't think it was very good. Hard to explain the taste. I also tried the eel and crab roll my friend ordered and they were good. I would come back and try something other than sushi next time. The prices are very affordable! Restaurant was clean and the staff was nice. Edit: The owner saw my review and came to speak to me about my experience with the tuna roll. He was very nice and you could tell he was very passionate about his business, wanting to explain and ask more about my experience. He said he would take it off the bill but I insisted to pay for it. He wouldn't let me unfortunately! I edited some of the review because he took the time to talk to me and I can tell he does really care about the business.

    Sushi to go platter!
    Maria L.

    First and definitely not my last! I had my girlfriends over for a sushi night and we all agreed to stay in and boy was it a great night! We ended up ordering 7 rolls and all of them were AMAZING!! And let me tell you the price is RIGHT! Recommended items: Alexander roll Tornado roll Southside roll * (not traditional but a must) Hawaiian roll * (such a great combo) The crawl roll ( did not taste much of the truffle) Hot mama roll Lama roll

    It's so hard to find good sushi in Tampa Bay and this place exceeded my expectations! I drove all…read morethe way from downtown St Pete on a IG recommendation (that's how little good options you have in this area unfortunately) and I was not disappointed. The staff and owner were very friendly and personable and the food was even better! I ordered the gyoza (this is fried and the filling is an in-house recipe pork filling, might be different from your regular gyoza but still yummy and worth trying), and had the Nigiri Flight which was amazing! I'll let the picture speak for itself, but you need to come in and try it for yourself. The fish was fresh and each one was better than the other. I even loved the tamago (which they prepare in house) and I normally am not a fan of it. All the nigiri were well sized and super filling, I could have done without the dumplings and the salad, and still would have been more than satisfied. The place is also very well decorated and styled, I truly think they hit all the points with food, service, and ambience. You can tell the owner puts his heart and soul into this place and it shows in the food and your time there. It was a very pleasant experience and I am so happy to have found Isekai!

    Fantastic lunch here on a recent visit to Tampa for business…read more As a Los Angeles resident who has spent 1/2 my time in Hawaii for work, I am an acclaimed sushi snob. I was excited by the great reviews on Yelp -- and was so happy that this place lived up to the hype! The fish was excellent -- fresh, well cut, super tasty. The toro was rich and delicious, the salmon and snapper fresh and pure, and as noted by others, the seasoned sushi rice with the accoutrements in the bowl (seaweed salad, thinly sliced pickled radish and carrot, and masago) made for an elevated lunch. I really appreciated the flexibility and options around my celiac disease (sushi can be tough because of the wheat in most soy sauce) -- including the kind note they attached saying the subbed some extra toro and masago for the Iburi which had been marinated in soy sauce. Lastly, I usually much prefer to eat-in for sushi (a sushi bar is my 2nd home), but really appreciate the details they put into the Uber Eats takeout package -- dressed it nice with shiso leaf and shaved radish AND have it all placed on little ice packs to keep the fish cold on their commute from the Chef's Knife to my belly. Great experience overall.

She chose this location as it's her "favorite" place to go for sushi. They don't take reservations, but you can do call ahead. Luckily, she got there early and got us a table. They were packed shortly after we arrived -- on an early Saturday night. My husband got a selection of sushi and sashimi -- choosing each by the fish/option he wanted. He said it was very fresh. I started with their kani salad. I'd asked the server how spicy it was and she said "not too". Sadly, it was a bit too peppery for me to totally enjoy. I shared some with my husband. There was a nice mix of cucumber and krab in it. After the salad, I had their lobster roll. It was tempura lobster with lettuce, cucumber, and avocado. On top was some eel sauce. It was very good. My friend had tuna tataki stack. There were three types of caviar (fish eggs) on top of avocado. And then sushi tuna in the middle and a layer of avocado on the bottom. It's her "go to" dish. She said it was delicious. We weren't rushed. We enjoyed our food and some good conversation. But as we realized there were a lot of folks waiting for a table, we decided it was time to leave. I might have even asked about dessert.

    If you're looking for the American hibachi experience, Kobe Japanese Steakhouse is the way to go. I…read morewill jump around a bit with this review as I am returning to writing, but hope that it makes sense as you read it. The restaurant is located conveniently within the Grand Plaza of the Carrollwood area in northern Tampa. The parking spaces in the front does get crowded and full rather quick, however there are plenty of spaces in the back that isn't too far of a walk. The entrance/main door is actually off to the side under the hard structure roofing - you walk through a small section of the outdoor seating patio to get to it. It must be noted that this review and experience is based on the following factors: - The review is written strictly for the American hibachi experience. The restaurant does offer other a la carte options if you don't want the "showmanship" and flair with your dining experience. - A reservation was made through Open Table. I highly recommend making a reservation beforehand. This was purposeful and intentional due to the occasion, and I wanted to make sure we were locked in. I feel that this also made for a smoother seating process as the restaurant had to prepare the table and chef. All in all from arrival to getting seated, we waited no more than 10 minutes after our entire party was present. - There were 12 individuals in our party which also accounted for the prompt seating (I believe you are paired and tetris'd with other guests for smaller parties). 12 is the max that a table can host - anything more will require multiple tables. I want to emphasize at this point how Kobe Japanese Steakhouse is suited for large parties. Most, if not all, the individuals in our party have not had American hibachi for as long as we can remember. We also had children in our party. Taking this all into account, it turned out to be the perfect venue for any type celebratory events (business outings, birthdays, baby showers, etc.) I could not recommend this place enough if you want an "easy winner" to delight the group. Now let's talk about the food and the chef. The quality and taste definitely exceeded our expectations. The food was cooked perfectly and the meats were extremely tender and flavorful. While not the most animated of the chefs there, our particular chef was very attentive to our needs. He ensured that our meal was enjoyable and delicious. Pricing-wise, you're looking at an average cost of $30 to $40 per individual. Overall service was not bad - the most important part was that everyone was welcoming and friendly. Overall, I would highly recommend Kobe Japanese Steakhouse if you are the one planning for a large group!

It is probably one of the best chefs we've ever had for hibachi. He has different tricks and songs and it made it even more enjoyable.

I cannot tolerate spice, and a lot of Japanese places that I have previously gone to put so much heat on it that I find it unpleasant. Although the seasoning was good, the portions weren't. The first one that I grabbed was just a bone surrounded by fat. There was not a piece of it that I could chew and swallow. Then the server kept coming by the area every ten seconds to check on everything but when I asked for yum yum sauce, he never came with it. I honestly think he dropped it off to the wrong table. And the Mexican roll that I ordered didn't taste fresh. Both rolls I ordered seemed so bland. Other places I have been to have tasted more flavorful. Don't think I would return.

Warm sake on the side because we're romanticizing dinner, obviously. It's cozy, it's cute, it's consistently good, and it's one of those places I'll always come back to. A little sushi night just makes life better!
