Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Shirasoni offers a lively dining experience with "excellent service" and entertaining chefs. It's perfect for special occasions, thanks to its vibrant atmosphere and memorable birthday celebrations. While some diners felt "rushed" during meals, the "great food" and "amazing drinks," like the gummi bear martini, consistently impress. A fun spot for Japanese fusion lovers!

    I’ve been here a few times and my experience is always the same. Mediocre food with lack luster service. Recently we did the hibachi tables for my daughters birthday recently and the food is incredibly rich from all the fake butter they use. The beef was also weirdly gamey. Overall, EVERYTIME I come there, I leave thinking I should not come back. There are definitely better options.

    The food was very greasy and seemed to have a heavy gas taste to it from the grill

    This is our boy’s go to dinner restaurant for any of their celebrations, usually it’s a great show and meal! This time not so much. There was no show (a sad try of the onion train) and the food was not great very bland, our oldest son said “the rice doesn’t taste right?” and sadly the rest of the meal went the same.

    It was your standard experience at this type of restaurant but our chef wasn’t very engaged. He barely said one or did any tricks, mostly just cooked our food then left.

    It was great experience and dinner. However, did felt rushed when providing cupcake dessert. I wasn’t asked if we were ready for dessert as many were still eating and caught off guard. They sang happy birthday great, but I felt so rushed and the part my was confused if we were getting kicked out early? Overall food was great, cook was great and service was good besides feeling rushed and not asked if it was okay for desserts.
