" Had a fantastic time at Sushi Murasaki! I ventured in based on recommendations and decided on the omakase. Every dish was impressive, showcasing the chef's mastery of sushi making. The flavors were balanced, and you could tell each ingredient was selected carefully. The environment felt intimate and warm. I will say that the price made me think twice, but the quality is truly unmatched. I'm counting down the days to my next meal there! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Sushi Murasaki for the first time last week after hearing rave reviews. The place was busy which was a good sign. I opted for their lunch specials which included a sushi platter. The fish quality was excellent, and the presentation was very appealing. My favorite was the salmon nigiri; it was so fresh and flavorful. The only downside was that I felt the portions were a bit small for what I paid. Regardless, the service was friendly and efficient. Overall, a solid experience and I look forward to coming back for dinner soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Yesterday was my first experience at Sushi Murasaki and I left feeling a mixed bag. While I appreciated the quality of the seafood, I did expect a more cohesive dining experience. My dining partner and I decided on a 10-piece omakase for lunch. Some pieces were absolutely delightful, especially the uni, while others felt a bit rushed. The service was quite friendly, but we had a long wait for our drinks. It was nearly an hour until our omakase arrived, and by that time, I was hoping for better pacing. The ambiance is lovely, but I felt the noise from the kitchen was a distraction. Though I enjoyed the food overall, a few things need adjustment. I might give it another shot, as I think they have potential. " (*Curated Review*)

" This has become my favorite sushi spot lately! I've never tasted sushi this rich and flavorful before. Each piece of nigiri feels like a work of art, with special toppings that elevate the dish. I ordered the omakase, and I was blown away! The chefs are passionate, and it shows in their creations. The atmosphere has this delightful vibrancy that makes the whole experience enjoyable, and every member of the staff was friendly and accessible. If you’re looking for superior sushi and a lovely dining environment, I can’t recommend Sushi Murasaki highly enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sushi Murasaki is an experience, not just a meal! From the chef's artistry to the fresh ingredients, every detail is taken care of. The uniqueness of the flavors blew me away. The omakase had a fantastic variety to it; you never know what gem you're going to taste next! The only downside was I felt the waiting time during peak hours was on the longer side. However, the taste absolutely made up for it. I will definitely recommend this place to friends and return as soon as I can! " (*Curated Review*)

" The seafood at Sushi Murasaki is fresh and flavorful. I decided to try their omakase for the first time, and I was not disappointed! The fish was incredibly tender, and the entire experience was very relaxing. The only thing that could be improved is perhaps the pacing of the meal, which felt a little rushed during peak hours. Other than that, I loved the experience overall and would recommend this place to anyone who loves sushi! " (*Curated Review*)

" After several visits, I can confidently say that Sushi Murasaki remains a top-tier sushi destination! The omakase always surprises in such delightful ways, and I appreciate the chef's dedication to showcasing seasonal ingredients throughout the year. It’s an honor to watch the chefs work with ingredients that inspire each dish. Each bite is an explosion of flavor, making it truly worth the price. I do think they could improve the speed of service sometimes, as I’ve noticed a wait during peak hours, but it’s never too hard to get staff’s attention. Overall, I can only give high praise to this establishment. " (*Curated Review*)
