When you first walk into Shun, the first thing you'll notice is the friendly smiles and greetings from both the wait staff and the sushi chefs. Seating is very prompt and the tables are very clean. With the colors and lighting, the atmosphere is very comfortable and welcoming. Although it wasn't rated romantic by the so called "critics", we've found it to be perfect for a date. There is a candle lit on each table and the wait staff does an excellent job of "remaining in the background". The variety of sushi available is great and the taste is fantastic! If there's something not on the menu, the chefs are happy to accommodate when possible. And if you're sitting at the sushi bar and don't quite know what you want, again the chefs are more than pleased to present options based upon your likes and dislikes-- they know best. On many occasions, the chefs will make something special for you given flexibility for them to remain creative. Just as you don't read a book by it's cover, don't judge Shun by the critics. Go try it for yourself!

Pros: Parking, Ambience, Service, Food, Menu

Cons: Not suitable for large groups

Insider Tips

What to Drink

Skip the house sake, served warm, and head instead for a slightly more expensive brand: It's worth it.
