    Service (Crystal) was excellent and her recommendations were delicious. It got a little loud by the time we left at 7:45 but since we usually dine on the earlier side it will not deter us from going back. So many choices that we might make it a monthly event!

    Excellent sushi, excellent service. Sushi Kashiba's omakase experience is very much like in Japan, with your own sushi chef for a party of 2. The preparations were all delicious, using local seafood and seafood from around the world, including Japan, Spain, British Columbia, etc. I know very little about sake and asked the server for help in making a selection. She got me exactly what I wanted, despite my inability to describe it well. The omakase experience is not cheap, especially after adding drinks, service charge, and tax, but sometimes, you get what you pay for. It's not the kind of experience one can get just anywhere in the USA and I enjoy myself at Sushi Kashiba every time I go there.

    This was our first Omakase experience. First I’ll start with the two minor negatives- we were seated around the corner of the bar, which just didn’t feel as comfortable stuck up against the wall. The soup with mushrooms had a few small pieces of grit in it. The fish was incredible though- so fresh and perfectly seasoned. I don’t think I’ve ever had fish that good! Sushi will never be the same! The service was perfect. The chef was positive and friendly. Be prepared to shell out though- 3 people with 3 cocktails, hot tea and no dessert was $600! It was a special experience for us- and the birthday note on the bar was a nice touch.
