"Upon first glance, the dish presented itself as a promising one, with a beautifully plated raw fish at its center. However, as I took my first bite, it became apparent that the seasoning on the rice was overpowering. The bold flavors of the seasoning completely overshadowed the delicate and nuanced taste of the fish, leaving me with a sense of disappointment. Despite the quality of the fish itself, the lack of balance between the rice and fish left something to be desired. It is my hope that the chef can find a way to better highlight the true essence of the raw fish in future preparations."

Amazing Chirashi Bowl, especially for takeout. Served in a wonderful "Morimoto" box. Fish was high quality, super fresh , plenty of pearl roe that fill each bite with an extra burst of flavor. House made wasabi. So good I ordered 2 days in a row!

The sushi rolls had too much scallion and were nothing special. The Morimoto Ramen Soup was subpar. SukiyakiUdon, and Braised Pork Belly were mediocre. Im Japanese and none of the items i received were even close to authentic. Go anywhere else for good japanese food, especially for the price.

"We were there celebrating two birthdays. Our server Faith was wonderful. She was attentive without being intrusive and knowledgeable about the menu. We were a table of 6 and ordered quite a bit of food, some of which was great and others lackluster. The bao buns were great and the small calamari salad was huge and those who had it said delicious. The spareribs were good as well as the edamame dumplings, although the way those were served made it hard to fully enjoy. Each dumpling should be on a individual type spoon so you can enjoy the soup part as well as the dumpling. The way they were served in one large bowl with only one spoon made it so the soup part is left at the bottom. I did request extra spoons from the expediter but they never came. The worst part of our appetizer course was somehow an item was switched to another in the computer and served to us. It had shellfish in it and that wasn’t known when someone at our table who doesn’t eat shellfish ate it. The sashimi was good but the tuna tartare thing was really bad. The entrees we had were the duck, which I was told was delicious, the miso cod, which was fishy, the whole fish which was tasteless, the lobster fried rice, which was okay but lacking flavor. The best dish was the black pepper beef, it was delicious and elegantly served. We had all the sides and all were quite good especially the eggplant and the wasabi mashed potatoes. It was a nice evening but it felt a little stale for a Starr restaurant."
