   We had sashimi for appetizer, which was very good with a provided low sodium soy sauce; for entrees we both had pork Raman - the broth was good but a little too much oil in it, and the noodles were not special, as we have expected, a little too soggy; and the green onions were chopped in distinct fashion - a little sloppy for such an upscale restaurant. The complimentary dessert was a sorbet with a side drop of mango sauce - very nice presentation and well balanced (not too sweet). The music (better for a beach open environment) was not matching the upscale environment, and the price was on the high side considering the overall value.

   The food quality was sub-par given the high end pricing. The reviews are not reflective…we were expecting a great tasting dinner and quality of sushi was grocery store level.

   Very unique! It felt like finding a secret and exclusive club with its unexpected location. Very limited seating kept the attention to service squarely on us. Food was excellent, imaginative, and full of new things I’ve never experienced. Our server was on point the entire night with great recommendations and knowledge of menu items we were not familiar with. Great night all around.

   A great sushi experience in Pensacola! A unique find with great views. They have an extensive sake menu and fun cocktails! I found the lobster and octopus in my lobster ramen to be slightly chewy.

   We dined here while staying in Pensacola Beach and it was so worth it. Morgan, our server, explained the menu flawlessly and answered our many questions, provided recommendations and made our experience even more special. The quality of the fish was what made this restaurant worth it. The star of the show were the wagyu appetizer, the Florida citrus, and the nama sashimi. I would love to come back again!

    This is an amazing experience with ?Japanese? Cuisine. Be sure to get something in all three groups of food, and share. We needed a total of four. Two in starters. No cocktails, only wine and saki, but wonderful wine list. Great service, beautiful view. Loud couple there (sales guy) initially, but once they left, was delightfully pleasant. It is expensive but worth the experience. They do all details to the max.

    Excellent food - some of the best sushi that I have tasted. The service was outstanding - friendly, professional, knowledgeable. helpful, and attentive. The only negatives were 1) the cost - the most expensive rolls that I have eaten and 2) food was slow to come out. We didn't complain about the slow service but they offered to comp us a glass of wine which was nice (since the wine was very expensive also) . Even with those negatives, I would go back in a heartbeat.

    I had an awesome experience! I do agree other reviewers about the drinks… I tried three of the cocktails and have definitely had better. The wagyu appetizer was the best wagyu I’ve had. Pork belly was good but I’ve had better. It wasn’t very fatty and that’s the best part. My crew loved it tho. We did 4 of the rolls and the tuna was the best to me. I can’t remember the names but I took a picture. I loved the small dining area. There were only 2 other couples in there. I’d go back for sure but I’d order 3 of the wagyu and stick to water😂

    Bonsai is a hidden enclave of delicious, high-end Japanese offerings. From the sake list to the omakase, they offer the best options. While tucked away in the Hilton and can be an adventure to find, it's worth the search! The chef puts together wonderful dishes, the staff is kind and thoughtful, and did I mention the sake? It's definitely worth the visit.
