" I had an average experience overall. The food was good, but I was expecting something more exciting based on all the reviews. Yes, the service was nice, but I found the portions too small for the price. I think many aspects were nice, but I may try another Japanese restaurant nearby next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" While I enjoyed my meal at Biwa, I couldn’t shake off the feeling that I paid a premium for relatively small portions. The sushi was delectable, and the fish tasted incredibly fresh. Service was top-notch, with staff constantly checking on us. However, the environment was cramped, and I felt a bit claustrophobic. Next time, I might go during off-peak hours to enjoy it more leisurely. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Biwa was such a delight! The sushi was so fresh, and I loved the variety they offered. The bar seating allows you to interact with the chefs, which added to the experience. However, it might not be the best choice for larger groups looking for a big meal, as it's more of a tasting experience. I left feeling satisfied and looking forward to my next visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Excellent dining experience! I was truly impressed with how every dish was presented and the charm of this little spot. The freshness of the ingredients is evident. Although seating was tight due to the restaurant's popularity, the quality of the food more than made up for it. My recommendation: try the sashimi platter! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic experience! Biwa's attention to detail in food preparation blew my mind. I particularly enjoyed their omakase. However, this place is quite small, so prepare for a more personal dining experience but it can feel a little crowded when busy. Overall, this establishment left a lasting impression on me, and I plan to come back for more culinary adventures! " (*Curated Review*)

" Such a wonderful experience at Biwa! The sushi was so fresh, I could taste the ocean. The ambiance was just right—not too loud, which made our dinner talk extremely enjoyable. There were so many varieties to choose from, from sashimi to unique rolls. If you're looking for a cozy spot to enjoy Japanese cuisine, definitely give Biwa a try. I can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was delightful and totally lived up to the hype! The omakase experience was out of this world—every morsel was a treat—from the sushi to the desserts. You could tell that a lot of passion goes into each plate. I walked out feeling fully satisfied. The only slight drawback was the space being a little cramped at times, but I’d come back anytime for the food! " (*Curated Review*)
