    Tenzan was excellent. The service and food was the best sushi we could find for this value and I would go back in a heartbeat.

    The sushi was absolutely outstanding!!! Their spicy tuna roll was one of the best I’ve had. The service was also excellent.

    Serviceable lunch spot if you’re in a hurry for takeout or dine-in. Great food and decent service for the price.

    We were there at lunchtime and I had their lunch special of salmon teriyaki. It was a lot of food! Soup, salad, California roll, shumai, dumplings and rice for $14.95. My nephew ordered off the regular menu and had a sushi. All was fresh and delicious, and service was very fast.
