Vibe: Sophisticated ambiance minus buzz

The ambiance at Gurume Sushi resonates sophistication and modernity, making it a perfect spot for intimate date nights. However, the restaurant's drinks selection seems to disappoint, and it lacks the buzzing crowd one might expect from such a beautifully decorated place.

  • Great Ambiance

    Beautiful, modern, and sophisticated interiors praised for creating perfect ambiance.

  • Bad Buzz

    Despite nice decor, the restaurant was pretty empty upon entering.

Perks: Comfortable groups, tricky parking

Enjoy dining with large groups at Gurume Sushi as it comfortably accommodates with spacious seating and good service. The reservations are easy to make, adding convenience. The music is soothing, not irksomely loud. However, parking can be a challenge, and the patio seating does not offer anything extraordinary. The reviews about 'kid-friendly' are neutral, leaving room for interpretation.

  • Great For Groups

    Accommodates large groups comfortably with spacious seating and good service.

  • Okay For Kids

    Beautiful and family friendly, but not specific about kids.

  • Hard To Park

    Parking horrendous, challenging in shopping center, spots limited and crazy.
