The staff went above and beyond to make the night special. They surprised us with complimentary yogurt soju, a taro cake, and even sang happy birthday! The sushi chef and servers were so kind and fun they even came out to share a shot with my husband after singing to him, which made the whole experience feel like we were just celebrating with friends and family. It's rare to find a place that combines great food, warm hospitality, and such a personal touch. We left with full hearts (and stomachs!). We'll definitely love coming to bonsai Everytime we come we are surprised. Will be back soon. thank you, Bonsai Sushi, for making his birthday unforgettable!

I used to come here more often when there were fewer sushi options in and around Redding, but now that there are more choices available, I don't see myself returning as frequently. The sushi doesn't stand out enough for me to justify the higher price compared to other options nearby. That being said, the staff is truly wonderful. They're friendly, welcoming, and genuinely great people. The ambiance of the restaurant is also a highlight. I especially love the sushi boat presentation--it's such a unique dining experience and adds a fun element to the meal. Overall, while the food itself may not be enough to bring me back regularly, I really appreciate the excellent service and atmosphere that make this place memorable.

They advertised the sushi boat service on their door, but did not have it during the time window they posted. I had no expectations for great sushi and thought I'd get "ok" sushi here. Instead, It was memorable only for how bad it was. The tuna (maguro) was awful. It was inedibly grainy and did not slightly spring back when touched with gentle pressure--the sign of either low quality fish, or lack of freshness. It is also the common bright pink gassed fish--not a sign of quality. I wouldn't feed this to my cat. I ate one piece of fish without rice. The texture was grainy and gross. I figure it was a fluke and tried another piece before spitting it out. Hard pass. The salmon roe sushi was also off, and inedible. The egg sushi was water-logged and not good. Finally, their chef does not know how to make proper sushi rice. The rice should be sweet with a hint of tartness, both in balance with the rice. No harmony here--it was just slightly tart. When I complained that it was inedible the server was suspiciously defensive insisting it was "fresh." If that's true, it was not good fish from a reputable vendor. If you want sushi and you're in Redding, go to Kobe or Raw.

Hard to find the front door but once we did we were very pleased with the ambiance. Raw is a lovely space and the bar is large and looks very inviting and like a place tou could feel very comfortable having a cocktail or two. The seating is comfortable and has a relaxed vibe. The sushi was just not great. We ordered several of the special rolls that ranged in price from $22 to $29. They all tasted pretty much the same and every one of them had the same sauce. But the safest part is the tempura shrimp in the rolls tasted like it had been sitting for awhile. And instead of getting that crispy light tempura crust, it was gummy and heavy. The rice was gummy and I am not sure if it was overcooked or perhaps had too much sugar added which madeit overly sweet and congealed. We also ordered a dou le.order of the Hamachi sashimi which was fair but lacked that super rich butter flavor I crave. We were so hoping to find our go to sushi spot while visiting Raw. And I do think they have a place in the restaurant bar world. But their "place" is not for as a high end sushi restaurant. The quality is just not there. And I so wanted it to be. ‍​

Eating out is pricy these days but decided to splurge and soooo happy we did. The restaurant is in an area with lots of one way streets but worth the challenge of getting there.

And a Caesar salad, (Slightly disappointing except croutons were house made and still warm, great texture!) We topped the meal with the best tiramisu I've ever eaten.

The inside is very comfortable as well and set up to manage all of the activity that comes from making your own plates. Extensive sushi menu and bar menu too for those who want.

We visited Tokyo Garden on a Friday evening, about 5pm. Party of 5. I felt like the food was…read more"okay" but nothing to write home about. We ordered a variety of appetizers, sushi rolls, and stir fry's. It was surprisingly pricey, but I'm told that they're comparable to other sushi places. As someone that doesn't frequent sushi restaurants, I felt like the amount of food didn't really match the prices. The main reason for removing stars was the service was lacking. We waited for over an hour before any food (we even ordered apps) hit the table. The waitress wasn't on top of keeping drinks full, or even making sure we have silverware or napkins. It was a bit of a struggle to get what we needed during our time here. Would I eat here again? Yes. Would it be my first choice? No.

First and last time I will be coming here…read more I placed a specific order over the phone, but when I picked it up, several ingredients were missing. To make matters worse, the rolls were extremely dry and not enjoyable to eat at all--my kids ended up throwing them away. I called to let them know the order was incorrect, and at first they apologized and offered us a credit. I appreciated that and thought they were making it right. However, just a few minutes later, they called back and said they could no longer honor the credit and would only remake the order if we paid again. I'm honestly disappointed that they would rather lose a customer than stand behind their mistake. Good customer service is about making things right when an error happens, and unfortunately that wasn't our experience. We won't be returning.

Can't go with a large party they separate you with two cooks totally opposite sides. It's like not even being in the same group of people. 2. They do not provide you with very much food at all in the Teppanyaki. It says you get an appetizer and that consisted of two shrimp. Lol 3. The first waiter that we had that was taking our drink order and took our meal order had such a heavy accent. It didn't even sound like he was speaking English. I ordered a more expensive sake, and he proceeded to explain to me how it was pointless to get the more expensive sake when I can get the cheapest sake for the same thing. So I tried it and the cheap cheapest saki is disgusting! 4. When I got my portion of the bill which was my meal and my daughter's meal it was over $80 and they added themselves in 18% gratuity. They said it was because we were in a large party but again we were not! We couldn't even communicate with half of our party. 5. And the last thing that pissed me off the most is that they get you in and out in one hour. They totally rushed us!! They were taking our plates on our side because the other side got their food first and they were done so they started rushing the people that were on our side.
