    Our service was amazing. Helped us navigate to so great dishes and helped with cocktails and sake selections. The black cod appetizer was one of our favorites.

    This is the older brother to Dante Bocuzzi's Goma restaurant and has a Tokyo nightclub vibe. If you like a dark, energetic atmosphere and really good sushi, Ginko is for you. However, don't plan on any extensive conversations unless you have really good hearing. Went to Ginko to celebrate a birthday and weren't disappointed. Service was excellent and our server Emily was a lot of fun. Cocktails (Moscow mule, Cucumber martini and Martini) were very well made. Sushi offerings are extensive and everything was very fresh. The Hamachi Usuzukuri was outstanding, very fresh and tasty. Charred shishito peppers could have used a little heavier char, but the Togarashi spiced sauce was delicious. The Hamachi Oshi Sushi was the big hit of the night with thinly sliced fluke and a wonderful avocado, jalapeno, cilantro sauce. The Lobster, Spicy Tuna and Dante rolls were all delicious. And the lovely chocolate and tempura banana dessert was nice birthday surprise.

    First visit in two years. Just not as good as previous experiences. Fish wasn’t great. Flavors seemed off. Speciality Roll was average. Maybe just an off night.

    Ginko is 15/10 every single time. We took friends there for the first time, and they agreed. The service is always great. The servers are very knowledgable, keep your glasses filled and your table cleared as different courses come. This is the best sushi in town, hands down. MAKE SURE YOU GET THE SALMON BELLY. We are looking forward to our next Ginko night.

    We waited 3 months to be able to get a reservation. We arrived and it was very busy and very loud. We were seated at a booth and immediately noticed how outdated the lighting is. Too bright and glaring. When they tried to pour tap water, we asked for bottled still water, but they did not have any. I requested a martini with Vanilla vodka, but they had none. We ordered several appetizers and the shishito peppers had to go back because they were under cooked and very tough. The edamame was luke warm and not hot, but we ate it. We order several other items and it took forever to get served. After dinner we requested cappachino, but they don't offer it. OVerall, for the price we did not feel this was a very good value. There was nothing that was exceptional and there is absolutely no ambiance in this basement space.

    Excellent sushi, poor service. The staff were not on their A game the evening of March 3. Too many problems to list. Hopefully an isolated incident because we love Ginko.

    Honestly after reading the reviews we were expecting something special. Their on line menu shows Shabu shabu - but beware they don’t do it. We would have preferred to be seated at the bar since they didn’t have it. The server was mostly awol. Food took forever even with 4 sushi chefs behind the bar. The eel and foie gras roll very good as was the giant shrimp with miso Mayo. The California roll barely had any crab (only ordered bc stated real crab). The spider roll decent. Ordered a toro hand roll and got a yellow tail instead. Couldn’t have the hamachi Kama bc only available for chef 6 course people. Pricey and definitely didn’t live up to the hype. Parking also difficult.

    Beautifully chosen, curated, cut and served sashimi and rolls with elevated presentation and gastronomy. Cocktails were well-crafted and delicious. The shiso martini is next level. Loved everything we tasted. This isn't a place you go for "value" but for the experience and Ginko delivers impeccably.

    First order of food came out in decent time. We waited 45 min for the next three sushi rolls and place was not crowded. Our server was very inattentive, always seemed rushed, and would not be seen for 20 to 30 minutes.

    The entire experience was phenomenal. It was our first time visiting and we cannot rave enough about the food. The quality of the fish, drinks, and oysters was superb. The Purin and the Yuzu sorbet capped everything off perfectly. Highly recommend. The ambiance made us feel as though we were in a small sushi bar somewhere in Japan. The quality of the food topped all of that.

    I thought the food was very good, not great. Service was sub par. We had to keep flagging down the server for drinks and to place order. I was expecting higher quality of service. In fairness to our server he seemed to be responsible for the majority but f the customers and making his own cocktails. He was very friendly but didn’t give a whole lot of info on the menu and we told him it was our first time there. I would go back but wouldn't be the first on my list to visit.
