Vibe: Vivid colors concoct warm vibes

Sushi Ryokan boasts a warm, social atmosphere with an irresistibly modern and welcoming vibe bathed in vivid hues. Despite some questionable music choices, the ambiance triumphs thanks to a much-acclaimed extensive sake list and popular happy hour specials. Good crowds and a fun, trendy vibe add to the overall positive ambiance.

    Extensive sake list, good beer selection, and worthwhile happy hour specials.

  • Okay For Dates

    Good for dates, though ambiance may vary; not everyone's favorite.

  • Bad To Entertain

    Hip hop music choices were initially off-putting for some diners.

Perks: Plentiful parking, less for kids

Sushi Ryokan makes parking a breeze, but that's about where the concession to convenience ends. With loud music that some may find disturbing, the ability to handle large groups, and a moderate performance on service, the place creates a mixed bag of experiences for its visitors. Also note, it may not be the best choice for a family night out.

  • Great For Groups

    Handled large group of 14 with outstanding service and food quality.

  • Okay Service

    Friendly staff balancing out some service delays and occasional inexperience.

  • Hard To Hear

    Overly loud music disrupts enjoyment of food and atmosphere for some.
