    Went there during "soft open." There were six of us and the food was really good. They were waiting to get their liquor license any day.

    Food was good but service was absolutely awful. Took over an hour and a half to get our food after ordering. Very very disappointed.

    I want to thank Mr. Arlo (our wait person) for this review…read more I was planning on taking my family (party of eight) to CC for my nephew's BD as my daughter indicated she had a good experience with the food and the atmosphere was decent. We arrived relatively early for dinner to beat the crowd and was promptly seated into two split tables since they did not have a table long enough to host us all together. If you know, the protocol is that everyone at the table has to be on the same tier in order to eat and you can only pick two broths per table (even if you have four palates). Fine. I have an elderly grandmother who eats like a pigeon and a young child and less adventurous patrons and so I situated them together. The other four would (including myself) would sample the "gold" tier. We were promptly told that we could not choose separate tiers as we were one party even though it was two separate tables. As I was considering this, Mr. Arlo then promptly asserted that "We were welcomed to dine elsewhere if we did not like this." This was immediately followed by "I assert this policy and there is no changing this". At which point I deliberated for an eternity of 3 secs and took my family to another establishment down the street that a) wanted our patronage and b) was happy to provide service in a courteous and professional manner. While the total bill may be inconsequential to Chubby Cattle ($68/person + drinks + tips), I will not patronize this establishment until otherwise noted. And while I am not a huge influencer like others, I have plenty who value my judgement and reviews. And I will not recommend this establishment thusly. Service: 0 Food: Who knows? Didn't even get water to sip before the incident. Atmosphere: Left too early after being seated to provide commentary and feedback. Value: 0 - nothing but poor service to rate.

    Sharaku is easily one of my favorite Japanese restaurants in Michigan, and after multiple visits,…read moreit continues to impress me. Having spent time exploring Japan and eating plenty of sushi there, this is probably the closest I've come in Michigan to recreating that experience. The focus is on traditional and straightforward: quality fish, careful preparation, and letting the ingredients speak for themselves rather than covering everything in sauces and toppings. The sushi and sashimi have been consistently excellent across my visits, and I especially appreciate that the menu goes well beyond the typical American sushi restaurant. There are plenty of traditional Japanese dishes and chef's-choice options, so it's a place where I'm always tempted to try something different. The atmosphere adds to the experience too. It has this intimate, neighborhood Japanese restaurant vibe that reminds me so much of stumbling upon a sushi spot in Kyoto. If you love traditional Japanese food and care more about quality and authenticity than elaborate specialty rolls, Sharaku is absolutely worth the trip. One of the best Japanese dining experiences I've found in Michigan, and a place I'll continue coming back to.

    I'd probably go lower, if not for the friendly service. came here with my friend for his bday…read moredinner. Not sure how he became aware of this place, but here we were. AMBIANCE - the place seemed very cozy, with booths, a handful of tables and seating at the sushi bar. This place was JUMPING on a Tuesday. I'm actually glad I made reservations. Bunch of old Asian dudes working behind the sushi counter - place seemed legit. SERVICE - our server was very attentive and was helpful with recommendations. He was very patient as we had MANY questions about the menu, and what we should be getting. MENU - this place had a pretty extensive menu. The first page of the menu had their daily specials which seemed to be a pretty deep selection by itself. They had many of your standard Japanese fare, though their appetizer list seemed to be deeper than most. They also had a fair number of sushi combos, however, according to our server, those are all chef's choice, and said they tended to be more basic type rolls/fish. One thing that was unfortunate was that the sushi rolls did not have a description of what was included in them, so we had to get clarification on a few of the rolls we were interested in. FOOD - we decided to get a smattering of items. we started with the deep fried oysters, chicken karage, and some along with some fried scallops they had on special. The oysters were good, while the karage and scallops were just "ok." Good, but nothing to write home about. We also ordered a couple of rolls - we did the spider rolls (soft shell crab), a tempura shrimp roll, dragon roll, and two eel nigiri. The eel nigiri were excellent. The rolls while good.... left me wanting a bit. From the other reviews that I read, this place is good on quality, and less on the quality, and this was on full display with the rolls. Besides the nigiri, the rolls seemed light, especially our spider roll which was only 4 pieces (I dont think I've ever seen that before). Even the dragon roll seemed small. We probably could have just gotten more nigiri in lieu of dragon roll. OVERALL - while the food was good, for the price you pay, it does not seem worth it. Maybe if we had gotten more nigiri or chirashi, we could have appreciated it more, but this place was too far and too expensive for what it was. Maybe the lunch specials make it worth coming here, but this would not be anywhere on my list of places to go for sushi in the metro Detroit area. Celebrity Rating - Salt Bae

A very…read moreauthentic ordering experience, you take little slips of paper for each dish you want to order, and bring them up to the cashier. They will also accommodate food allergies if you let them know, which is great, because my husband has a seafood allergy. We both ended up ordering tonkatsu set meals. My husband also ordered some gyoza and I ordered a croquette. The atmosphere was very liminal and it felt so different than any other restaurant I've been to. There was Japanese television playing. Our food didn't take long to come out, and we were in love with our meals! We were honestly surprised the set meals came with so much, but we loved trying everything. The pasta salad and the dressing on the veggie salad weren't really my taste, but everything else was divine! My husband was thoroughly impressed and said it was some of the best food he's ever had.

I ordered the Shoyu Ramen with extra egg, pork and noodles! I will say that while I do think the food was good, I wouldn't necessarily call this restaurant the cleanest place I've ever been too when it comes to a ramen spot. I think some small adjustments in this area could really take this restaurant to the next level. I'll still come back as they're still many items on the menu id love to try one day!

We went right at 5pm when it opened and all of us felt their dishes were pretty bland. My sister who doesn't like spicy or super flavorful foods liked her shrimp tempura udon though. Honestly, I was expecting more. I wish I would've loved it but didn't. I got the Tonkotsu with spice (didn't taste spicy at all). My hubby liked his Ton-Ton pork ramen. My friend got the Spicy Champon and it was NOT spicy at all. Not sure I'd recommend as our experience was lacking overall. At least they were great about refilling our waters and lots of free parking. I enjoyed the fresh small salad that came with our Ramen, but charging extra for the chili oil was a disappointment as my ramen really needed something extra. Better luck next time.

    The service and food were 5 stars. I was greeted immediately (although it would be hard not to be--…read morethe interior is small, and the welcome desk is immediately to your right when you walk in.) The menu is strong but limited, which I kind of like- limits decision fatigue, especially after a long day. I ordered the nigiri combo, for the cause. Nigiri is something I've only really gotten into this year, so I'm not an expert, but I know what I like and what I don't. Soft, sticky rice that feels fresh and adhesive but not clumpy, fresh smelling and looking fish. The California roll was a California roll. The nigiri was great however. The shrimp in particular was light and almost creamy tasting? I know that sounds odd but I mean it in a good way. The rest of the fish was good. I even tried eel (this is big for me) for the cause! It was rich and fatty, but not in an unpleasant way as I feared. It was pleasantly sauced, so I was able to try it sans soy sauce and was pleased! I *really* liked the soy sauce here, although they don't give you very much. They also are a bit stingy with the ginger. This was my first time trying tamago, which is a delicately sweetened egg roll stuffed with rice. If you're not used to it, you have to get over the look and just go for it! It's yummy! The restroom was clean but smelled faintly of cigarettes. To be honest... I didn't mind that. It kind of fit with the vibe and gave the restaurant a "real" "edgy" feel, although some people may not appreciate it. The interior is kind of messy and unkempt, but if you keep your eyes on the prize- the food- you'll leave happy!
