    Food was very good, but waiter had to be asked to speak up every time he said something. Appetizers and entrees came at the same time - not a great start. Wanted to order another roll, but the waiter completely disappeared. Had to flag down another server. Waited another 20 min to get the check. Saw other tables with much better service and was envious.

    Wonderful food and a good wine list make this an outstanding dining experience. We did not see our server for nearly ten minutes after being seated… not the first time in our experience that this happened at this restaurant. It would appear to be a management problem. That aside, once our server engaged, he did an excellent job and was very knowledgeable about the menu and the wine list. Our food was served promptly and food runners were flawless in providing descriptions and the table bussing staff did the job quite well. Morimoto was wonderful.

    While this is normally a great dining experience, this one was very disappointing. Our server wasted no time proudly informing us the corkage fee has been increased to a stupid amount of $40 but then waited more than 15 minutes to offer to open the bottle we brought. The service never recovered from there. Fortunately, the manager on duty removed the corkage fee. Hopefully the ship gets steered back in the right direction.

    Great experience with the food, atmosphere, creativity as usual. However this year service was spotty as we waited for items and our server rarely came at our table as he was too busy despite being helpful and knowledgeable. But we love the place and we will come back as every year!

    We had a few appetizers, sushi, and desert. The appetizers and the sushi were excellent. For many years, the main attraction for us has been the white chocolate lime ganache desert. Unfortunately, this year, the chef decided to replace tapioca w/ rice!!!! It was a disaster and the desert became a chewy mess.

    Dinner at the sushi bar was really good, but overall we probably paid twice as much as what we would have paid elsewhere for a similar meal, so not sure it was worth the hype. Nonetheless, service was great, and while it wasn’t exactly an intimate setting with limited seating, we enjoyed the atmosphere.

    Love Morimoto. Go here with my wife and we always get the appetizers to share. So delicious. Definitely need to try more of the menu moving ahead. One negative comment I have is it is always too loud for me. As I get older, I'm very sensitive to loud environments. It does get loud inside. Although 30 yrs ago it would have been a scene that was exactly my style!!

    7 course prefix isn’t worth the money. Some of it was good but the steak and the duck breast were not. The steak was terrible, tough and bland. Duck breast was more of the same. Left the restaurant still being quite hungry after a $400 meal.

    First I want to thank Mia who greeted us promptly, confirmed with me that we were celebrating a very special birthday and that she would make sure our server was updated. Crystal our food server was pleasant and assisted us in selecting hot Sake. After this point the dinner was a disaster. The items suggested for appetizers, sticky ribs were average at best, which largely was due to them being extremely fatty. The sushi offering was just not good, not sure if it was related to how it was prepared or if the fish itself was bad. We were advised that the Tempura coated rock shrimp was a specialty and we decided to try it. This was almost comical as it was served in paper cone within a cup, ??? This looked and tasted like a popcorn shrimp order from "Popeyes". it was a batter fried nugget, not coated with tempura. Needless to say if this is a Michelin award winning restaurant, be on notice your award may be repossessed. Ultimate indignity was that no one even said happy birthday to my better half. I have literally enjoyed a better meal at Red Lobster. NEVER Again would I refer anyone or dine at this establishment

    Food is nothing special for the high prices, service is slow, waited for ever to get the bill and noise level is insane, you have to shout to the other members of your party to be heard. Will never go back.
