" My experience at Ginkaku was fantastic! I loved their sashimi and the ambiance was beautifully styled with Japanese touches. The prices are also reasonable for the quality of food. I will definitely bring friends here next time! My only comment is about the wait time, but the quality of food was worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful restaurant! Ginkaku offers a wonderful array of sushi options. The nigiri was so fresh, and the service was pleasant. While the dining space was a bit crowded when I went, the friendly atmosphere made up for it. I'll definitely return to try more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at Ginkaku last night, and I can't wait to go back! The sushi rolls were fresh and inventive; I particularly enjoyed their creative twist on the classic California roll. The service staff were attentive and helpful with recommendations. The only negative was the slightly loud dining environment—ideal for a casual experience but not for an intimate dinner. Overall, a great spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by Ginkaku for a quick lunch, and I was blown away by the quality! I ordered a bento box with special rolls, and everything was perfectly cooked and presented. The tastes were authentic, and I felt transported to Japan. The only downside was that it got pretty busy and the service was a tad slow. But definitely worth it for the food. Count me in for a return visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is my favorite sushi spot! I love everything about it, from the decor to the food. The freshness of the fish is unmatched, and the variety of rolls available makes each visit a new adventure. The ambiance is quaint and perfect for a date night. The only thing that could improve is a little more attentiveness from the servers during busy days. Otherwise, highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an extraordinary experience at Ginkaku, and I can't recommend it enough! The sushi was phenomenal, and the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. I loved the decor and felt like I was in a traditional Japanese restaurant. The only issue was that it was quite crowded, which led to a small wait for our food, but the top-notch quality made it all worth it! " (*Curated Review*)
