This was previously Renga-Tei, just under new management, since the previous owners retired and moved back to Japan. The food tasted the same, which is great!! The menu is very slightly different, but still lots of options. Sushi was still very fresh!

You can't beat Tenjin's Japanese food! They offer the highest grades of sashimi that melt in your mouth. Their tempura is crispy and delicious. Their fish is perfectly cooked...if you like saba (mackeral), it's the best. And don't miss Bento Box Monday...all day!

Under new ownership, Tenjin has an updated interior which bright and clean. The menu has many traditional dishes that are my family’s favorites. The quality of food is excellent, although a bit pricey. Services was very good.
