My experience was so bad that I joined Citysearch as soon as I got home just to warn you guys of this place.
First of all, they refused a gift certificate that we had but at least they were honest about it and told us before we ordered. Since this was my first time there, we decided to give them a try anyways - bad idea. I had a bad feeling about this place when they claim to be a Japanese restaurant yet mispelled Nabeyaki Udon as Nabuyaki Udon on the menu.
It took them over 30 mins just to get us only a couple pieces of sushi. Not only that, every single aspect of their sushi was bad.
1. The sushi rice was warm - it is supposed to be room temperature!
2. The rolls were made by a total amateur. The seaweed on the sushi was broken and torn causing whatever was inside to spill out.
3. They did not use sushi rice (short grain rice)
4. THE FISH WAS NOT FRESH - it left such a nasty fishy taste in your mouth - a sign of spoiled fish.
Nothing about this place is good besides the fact that our water was refilled promptly. The food is way way overpriced for what you get. Come on Shoku, $18 for chicken? Who do you think you are, Mitchell's Steakhouse? At least at Mitchell's you are getting great service and atmosphere. Shoku is a dump and so is the food.
Avoid this place at all cost.
Pros: Water was refilled promptly
Cons: Food, Timeliness, Overpriced
