    Good food, great environment, good food value. The service was a bit slow (maybe due to staff shortage), we had to run or keep waiving to the waiters for services.

    Good fresh selection. Very tasty options for rolls. Service was attentive without being intrusive. A bit pricey, but you have to consider the location. Good value for the cost. I'll go again!

    Great sushi spot! We'd heard good things, but this was our first time at Japonessa. It did not disappoint! We were a table of 6, sat right away thanks to Open Table, and had an amazing night. The food and drinks were top notch. Strong work, Japonessa!

    The atmosphere is definitely that of a mall restaurant, lots of kids, busy, almost too much. The food was top notch. We had omakase mix nigiri and sashimi and a few rolls, and everything was super fresh and yummy. Service was pretty good too, although it could have been 5 stars if the place wasn’t that busy.

    Outstanding restaurant lunch menu! We had the Scorpio roll for the main selection. The way the food is presented and the flavors is just incredible here! Ambience can feel a little like a cafeteria at lunch but it was super quick and incredibly good!
