Editorial Review for Shogun – by Virginia Rainey
The Scene
Small tatami rooms are available in addition to open tables. You'll miss the best part of the restaurant, however, if you don't sit at the sushi bar. The sushi chef is a genuinely friendly guy, and the service is gracious. Perhaps that's why the place is often filled with regulars.
The Food
Sushi mainstays and exotic delicacies are always served at their pristine best. You can also order standard Japanese fare, but the sushi takes the spotlight. Your best bet is to put yourself in the chef's hands and enjoy. If delicate, deep-fried soft-shell crabs are available, go for them. Spanish mackerel, amberjack, ahi, hamachi, anago and baby crabs are all delightful. Fresh salads with vinegary or fried vegetables make delicious side dishes.

My boyfriend and I recently tried Shogun and love it and have gone back several times since. Every time the sushi is amazing (and i didn't even like sushi before), but the service is always sub par. Our first waitress was cold and condescending, and the second didn't check on us once. We had to flag her down to even get more water and to order more food. I'm not a complainer but when we order really hot sushi it would be nice to have some water to go along with it. My boyfriend and i are in our late teens however we both look younger so maybe they think we're just bum teens and we're not going to tip well. Well I tip on how good the service is no matter how good or bad the food is. So Shogun keep expecting sub par tips from us if we keep getting sub par service. Good service= good tips! But other than that, great sushi!
Pros: The sushi is amazing!
Cons: Service, parking on the weekends.

I love eating sushi and Shogun Is really good. They give you a traditional and authentic feel when you sit down. It's nice to sit at the bar as well. For all those bad reviews and complaining about spending too mucch!! What do you expect to pay when eating sushi? I mean come on, at least tip 20% when eating anywhere, don't go out to eat if you don't wanna pay the price
Pros: Great Food, Good and Authentic feel as if you were in Japan
Cons: nada
