" Dining at Tenjin was great! The combination of sushi and hot dishes made for a varied and delightful meal. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and made excellent recommendations. Loved the tempura shrimp. Looking forward to trying more of their offerings soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant has become my new favorite for sushi! The freshness of the fish is amazing, and I love the variety on the menu. I’ve tried different rolls and they’re always artfully presented. The only downside was the slightly cramped seating. Still, I highly recommend Tenjin! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have visited other sushi restaurants in the area, and honestly, none compare to the quality here. Tenjin emphasizes authenticity and quality in every dish. The geoduck sashimi was exquisite and the staff's service was warm and welcoming. This place is a must-visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was a mix. The food was generally good, but my rolls had too much wasabi for my taste. The staff did their best to accommodate my preferences. The ambiance was nice with an inviting feel, and the prices are reasonable. I’d try it again, but with caution on the wasabi front. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tenjin is a hidden gem! The authentic Japanese flavors brought back memories of my time in Japan. The bento boxes were satisfying and generous in portions, and the potato salad was unexpectedly delicious. The atmosphere is cozy, perfect for a relaxed meal with friends or family. Highly recommend trying their omakase! " (*Curated Review*)

" Enjoyed a lovely dinner with family. The restaurant was quite busy, which speaks to its popularity. The bento box was a great choice, packed with variety and made with care. Can't wait to go back and try the other entrees. " (*Curated Review*)
