" I tried Chef JUN for the first time with friends and was blown away! The sushi was the best I've had! We especially loved the Fire Fire roll. The atmosphere was friendly and warm, perfect for a group outing. Service was spot on! However, I did feel a bit underwhelmed when I saw the check; we left feeling a little hungry! Portion sizes for the rolls could use some improvement. Regardless, we'll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great overall experience at Chef JUN! We loved the variety of sushi available, and the unique creations stood out. The experience felt authentic, especially given the way the dishes are presented. Dinner was excellent, complemented by the attentive staff that made us feel welcome from start to finish. I would definitely return, but I think more variety in portion sizes would be nice.

" Chef JUN is a gem hidden in plain sight! I visited on a Friday night with a group of friends, and we had a blast. The sushi was exceptionally good, and I loved that they aimed for authenticity with their dishes. We tried the omakase, and it was priced fairly for the quality and prep that went into each dish. The servers were friendly and attentive, making sure our drinks were always topped up. My only critique? The atmosphere could use some mood lighting; it felt a bit bright during dinner. Overall, definitely a place to revisit! " (*Curated Review*)

The sushi melted in my mouth, and I could tell a lot of care went into the preparation. One highlight was the unique flavors they brought to their rolls; quite different from your typical sushi joint. The atmosphere was chic yet casual, making it ideal for an evening out. I felt welcomed from the moment I walked in. The service was impeccable; I didn’t have to wait for anything, and my server had some excellent recommendations. I can't wait to come back and try more items on the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

Each dish presented to us was exquisite and flavorful, showcasing the chef's attention to detail. Everything matched the high quality of fresh fish. The environment was cozy, which made it feel special. Staff was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive, making my birthday dinner a memorable one! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing rave reviews, I finally visited Chef JUN last week. The sushi was very fresh, but I was expecting something more authentic based on the hype. The atmosphere was nice and the place was clean, but I felt a bit let down compared to similar sushi places I have visited. Service was excellent though; my server was very friendly and helpful. I'd be willing to give it another shot! " (*Curated Review*)
