Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Mamanoko delights with "amazingly fresh fish," inventive Japanese cuisine, and standout dishes like the "miso cod" and "sushi rolls." The lively ambiance and attentive service make it a "favorite spot" for many. While service can occasionally falter, the "delicious food" and vibrant atmosphere often win diners over time and again.

    Come for the food not the service. The hotsui roll might be the best thing I’ve ever had in my life! The miso soup and eggplant are other highlights. I’ve never had great service here, we sat at the bar this time around and the bartender was not friendly at all and not very attentive either. It took 10 minutes for his to greet us when we arrived, but it was a pretty busy night. I’ll be back anyway

    We waited 45-1 hour in between servings. We given 3/4 of order in quick succession however our last 2 rolls came out surprisingly late. We brought this to your attention but were pretty much ignored.

    We got seated 50 minutes after our resi time. Our party was 4 people. The food order for 2 people arrived almost an hour after the food arrived for the other 2 people. We didn’t get to eat together at the same time as a group. The waitress had a horrible attitude and pretended as if it was normal for everyone not to eat all together at the same time. The entire experience was awful!

    The food was flavorful and the miso cod was made to order and melted in our mouths because it was so fresh. We had a roll, edamame, Brussels and miso cod. Everything was delicious!
