    Took over an hour to receive our appetizer then another 30 min+ to receive our mains. Fried rice lacked flavor. Black pepper beef was good though as were our drinks. Servers were nice but were not very attentive at all. Not the way we wanted dinner on our first anniversary to go.

    Solo diner , staying in same hotel for business. Food served family style was ok. Service was very bad. Waited 20 minutes for water despite restaurant being half empty. Server was probably new and inexperienced. I wouldn’t eat there again.

    This was a complete disappointment. Stay far away if you are looking for great food and service. Just learned another valuable lesson in life. Stay away from restaurants named after chef’s. Food is always subpar and way overpriced. And it wasn’t just us. There were literally 3 tables around us that were also complaining. And you know it bad when the server apologizes for the poor service. That’s actually only positive of the night. That plus they never brought me the side dish I ordered so at least that saved me $20. I’ll never go to another place like this again. Stay far away!

    If you are lookin for a culinary experience, Morimoto Asia is a great choice. The wait staff are professional, friendly, knowledgable and seemingly happy in their work environment. The food selection is diverse, many showcasing local ingredients and others offering exotic tastes to sample. Serving portions are very generous. Favorite drink: the Silky Samurai, a seductive mix of tequila, fresh lychee, lime and coconut milk. Favorite app: the signature ribs, a popular, perfectly cooked finger-licking interpretation of the dish. Favorite entree: the Ishiyaki Buri Bop, a calm tableside preparation that yields a sumptuous fish and rice/veg combo. All of Morimoto Asia's dishes we tried were subtly complex, perfectly spiced with layered flavors. Can't wait to try more!

    I will 100% return to Morimoto. The roast duck and tuna pizza are amazing. The service was excellent.

    テラス席(outside)がカラカウア通りを眺められて雰囲気がいいです。 料理も満足できると思います。 フローズン一番搾りがなくなっていたのがビール好きには悔やまれます。
