" A perfect venue for celebrating a birthday! Our party of ten enjoyed a fantastic meal where the portions were absolutely generous – honestly, we could've shared some dishes! The sushi was fresh, and the hibachi grill provided a show that entertained us all. Our chef went above and beyond to make our celebration memorable, even singing happy birthday for the guest of honor! Highly recommend for anyone looking to have a fun experience with great food. " (*Curated Review*)

" My recent visit to Shogun felt like a truly authentic experience. I was amazed by the genuine preparation of sushi and local Japanese dishes. Though it is an American establishment, they have managed to keep the authenticity intact, which other similar restaurants seem to overlook. Our chef really kept the energy flowing and made the event feel special for my group. I highly recommend trying the tempura; it's fantastic! " (*Curated Review*)

" Shogun offers an entertaining experience with really good food! The hibachi chefs do an amazing job at not just cooking, but also creating a fun environment with their tricks. I had the ribeye and shrimp combo, and while it was tasty, I found the steak slightly overcooked. However, the portion was enormous, and I left feeling satisfied. The decor is welcoming, making it perfect for gatherings. I think it’s worth a visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" It was my first time at Shogun, a place known for its lively atmosphere. While the hibachi show was entertaining, I found the sushi to be lacking. The rolls were good, yet not distinctive enough to set them apart from other establishments. The service was also slow at times, so that affected the experience a bit. I think I'd be willing to give it another try, but I am not fully sold on their sushi just yet. " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely adore Shogun Restaurant! The sushi is consistently fresh and flavorful, making it my go-to spot for a quick lunch or a special dinner. The ambiance is always lively, and the chefs know how to keep you entertained while cooking. Last time, our chef was particularly entertaining, with great tricks that made the evening special for my family. I'd recommend the Salmon Roll and the Filet Mignon; both were delicious! I can't wait to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Shogun last week and I can't stop raving about it! I ordered the tuna tartare, and it was the best I've had in a long time. The quality of the seafood was excellent, and you could tell everything was super fresh. The chef was vibrant and added to the dining experience. The only downside was that the wait staff wasn't very attentive, but we didn't let that ruin our evening! " (*Curated Review*)

" Took my family to Shogun for dinner, and it was an enjoyable night! Our chef made the experience so much fun with his tricks and humor. The food was good, and I especially loved the fried rice! However, a couple of dishes were on the oily side for my taste, but the portions were very generous. The atmosphere suited a family-friendly vibe, and everyone felt welcome. Would recommend.
