" I went here with a couple of friends and had an amazing time! The menu was extensive with lots of authentic options. I particularly loved their sashimi platter! The flavors were vibrant, and the portions were decent. It's perfect for a casual dinner or a special occasion. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the atmosphere is cozy and the staff friendly, I found the food to be average compared to what I have had elsewhere. The katsu curry lacked flavor and the sushi was decent but not exceptional. Service was a bit on the slower side, which was inconvenient during lunch rush hours. I may come back to give it another shot, but I wasn't too impressed. " (*Curated Review*)

" A captivating dining experience! The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, and the ambiance carries a warm, traditional vibe. The sushi is fresh and flavorful, and the ramen dishes remind me of my travels through Japan. Highly recommend for any Japanese food enthusiasts! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had lunch here after hearing all the hype. The food was good, but I didn't find it to be anything extraordinary. A solid choice for sushi, but I have had better experiences elsewhere. The atmosphere was nice and the staff were friendly. Overall, a decent spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tenjin is my go-to for Japanese cuisine. I always order their tempura and sushi rolls, which never disappoint. The staff is attentive, enhancing the dining experience without being intrusive. If you’re serious about authentic Japanese flavors, definitely try this place! " (*Curated Review*)
