" Highly recommend Bonsai! The food was fantastic and the service was very friendly. I tried several rolls and each one was amazing. The only drawback was the parking situation, which was a bit tight that day, but the food was worth it. A great place to grab delicious sushi and feel welcomed. I can’t wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I visited Bonsai last week and had an excellent time! The service was prompt and all staff were cheerful. The food was absolutely delightful, especially the sizzling hot stone pot dishes. My only critique would be on the parking situation; it can be a bit cramped. However, that's a small price to pay for such great food. 4.5 stars would be my score, so I’m rounding it up to 5! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently hosted a small birthday dinner at Bonsai and was thoroughly impressed! The staff went out of their way to accommodate our group, providing excellent service throughout the evening. We ordered a variety of dishes ranging from sushi platters to hot pot, and everything was bursting with flavor. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it perfect for small gatherings. One of my favorite things was the price—extremely reasonable for the quality we received. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a good meal in Columbus. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a delightful experience at Bonsai, the service was friendly and the food was delicious! I tried their specialty rolls which were robust in flavor. The decor gives a cozy feel which is a plus when dining out. If you enjoy sashimi, their fresh options never disappoint. All in all, will definitely be back for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem! Bonsai offers a wonderful dining experience with genuinely authentic Korean and Japanese dishes. I was pleasantly surprised at the variety of sushi rolls they offered, and each one was incredibly fresh. The staff were attentive and made great recommendations. I particularly enjoyed the tempura and the kimchi- they were phenomenal! I’ll be sure to recommend this place to friends and family! " (*Curated Review*)

" Bonsai has earned a reputation for decent sushi, but my last visit left a bit to be desired. I felt they could improve on the authenticity aspect, as some of the flavors didn't quite match my expectations. On the other hand, the service was commendable and the atmosphere was pleasant. A well-executed place, just hoping they keep improving their recipes. I'll give it another try soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wasn't quite sure what to expect, but Bonsai absolutely impressed me! The sushi rolls were meticulous and refreshing, and the Japanese curry was divine. It’s a cozy little place with a great vibe. Service was lovely and quick, even during peak hours. Already planning my next visit—can’t get enough of this place! " (*Curated Review*)
