" Disappointing experience overall. The food was average at best, and the service was terribly slow. I had to wait over 30 minutes for my ramen, which was just lukewarm when it finally arrived. I was really looking forward to authentic Japanese flavors, but I left feeling underwhelmed. I hope my experience was just an off night for them. " (*Curated Review*)

" My meal at Michikusa was a wonderful experience! From the perfectly grilled mackerel to the artisanal sushi, I was thoroughly impressed. I especially loved their agedashi tofu, which was crispy on the outside and silky inside. The server was friendly and attentive, although they were busy that night. Honestly, they made me feel valued, and I really appreciated that. Will definitely be back to try their specials! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a fantastic dinner here last night. The ambiance is vibrant, and the food was fabulous! The salmon nigiri was one of the freshest I've tasted. I also tasted their beef tataki, which had great flavors. The service seemed a little overwhelmed at times but nothing that spoiled the experience. I look forward to returning and exploring more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations from Michikusa, and they did not disappoint me! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, perfect for a family dinner. We sampled several dishes, including the tonkotsu ramen and some sushi. The sushi was outstanding, with high-quality fish that really stood out. The ramen had a hearty broth that I just couldn't get enough of. I appreciated the generous portion sizes, too! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sadly, my experience was not great. While the food had some good elements, I felt the dishes were not as authentic as advertised. The bento I ordered included items that were somewhat bland and lacking the punch I was hoping for. The service did try but felt disorganized. It was a disappointing visit considering the high expectations from previous reviews. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a hidden gem! I stumbled upon Michikusa while roaming through the neighborhood, and I'm so glad I did. The sushi is delightful, bursting with freshness, and the tempura was light and crispy. The décor is lovely, creating a perfect environment for a nice meal. The portions were generous, and I left feeling completely satisfied. Would recommend to anyone who loves authentic Japanese cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)
