Tensho

Great atmosphere and service and great food!The waiters were very attentive and quickly refilled my tea whenever it ran low. They constantly checked on us during our visit which is a 5/5 in terms of service in my books!At first glance, each order doesn't seem like a lot but after they cooking everything in addition to the dessert, we sure were stuffed!Definitely enjoy coming here!

My friends took me here to celebrate my birthday, and we went with the $100 set menu. so much food! Every dish was delicious, and we definitely left stuffed. The portions were generous, and the flavors were on point.The highlight for me was the dessert. the banana cream pie was absolutely amazing! Perfectly creamy, not too sweet, and the best way to end the meal. Overall, a great spot for a special occasion, and I'd definitely come back!

My parents and I came here on Christmas night (6:45 PM reservation) to celebrate Christmas and an early birthday dinner for my mom. I had mentioned the birthday in my reservation and they were kind enough to bring out our dessert with a candle and the staff and customers all sang happy birthday. It was super sweet and thoughtful!We ordered the USDA prime beef and seafood shabu shabu option for $108/person and we opted for the rice soup after we finished our shabu. The meal came with three starters, our meat and seafood, the rice soup, and dessert. This was a very traditional shabu shabu experience and it was our first time here since they changed restaurants. It was previously Kagaya (also a Japanese shabu shabu), not sure if it's just different management.When the meat came out, I genuinely didn't think I would be full because there were only 5 slices. The seafood and veggies do eventually fill you up + the udon / rice soup you get after you're done with your meat. There were only two servers working the whole night and it seats about 4 parties at the tables and maybe 10 people at the bar. Only thing we were kind of bummed about was that we weren't seated at the bar, so remember to mention that when you make a reservation if it's something you want.

This is an old school Japanese shabu restaurant in J town. Interior is minimalist and clean. Menu had a good selection but limited to shabu meals. We tried the wagyu shabu and seafood meal andUSDA prime beef set. Service was hit and miss as there was only one server for the whole restaurant and she was running around to assist a larger group and the entire restaurant. The wagyu was amazing tender and fatty. Vegetable selection and udon as expected. There is choice of dessert with the set meal. Overall expensive restaurant and food and service not really memorable. Not a repeat for me.

Pricey but amazing. Will definitely go back maybe get a babysitter for our 3 year old.

This place was a great experience with how each dish was presented and how well the sushi was prepared for each course.I think the service was very nice and friendly with the waiter constantly checking on us if we liked the food.The ambiance was like an izakaya and felt very traditional.The food was overall very solid and melt in your mouth for the price point that you're paying.Would reccomend to take a group of friends to enjoy something so good together and reflect on the dishes.Dessert was amazing and worth coming here just for that.

Had a really good meal here! We missed the traditional shabu that we had from Japan and this hit the spot! The service was impeccable and everyone was very friendly. I will say though that this place was very very hot when we came especially when everyone's pots were on. But the food and service was so good that we didn't even care about it being hot.

We had such an amazing experience at Tensho. The service was amazing and the A5 wagyu was absolutely delish. I would describe it as a premium/upscale shabu experience in a comfortable setting. There were two of us, so we got one portion of just the A5 Wagyu and one potion of half seafood/half A5 wagyu. The seafood was pretty good, but if we ever go back we'll probably just get 2 portions of the A5 wagyu at it was just unbelievably good. The meal comes with 3 appetizers, your selected meat dish/veggies, rice or udon cooked in your shabu broth, and a dessert. It was the perfect amount of food. They also have a great selection of sakes and wines. Overall it was just an amazing Japanese shabu shabu experience, and the servers are super attentive, friendly, helpful, and happy to answer any questions. I can't wait to go back!

The wagyu and king crab were super fresh and tender, best we had so far. The appetizers are awesome too, Im curious how they made everything so tender. We had 3 desserts luckily, on top of the famous banana pie, the matcha pudding was very good too. The cream brûlée didn't surprise me tho. Looks like small portion, but was more than enough for me and my husband. Which we went with one combo with extra people, not 2 orders. Service was great too, she would kneel down to explain everything before we order, and gave my baby free meal with extra dessert. Also we walked in without reservation, and had our seat no problem. Great experience.

Reviewing ONLY happy hour specials: $6 malt draft beer and $2.50 oysters (as of July 2024). I first stumbled into this restaurant while waiting for a table at the ever-busy Sushi Gen next door. Before 7pm, they have awesome deals for oysters and beer. I loved the oysters! They're small, but super sweet - I didn't ask what type of oysters they are, but judging from the smoothness, size, and taste, I'd say they're west coastal (similar to Kumamoto or Hama Hama). We tried both the raw and baked. I would recommend the raw for an overall better fresh taste and their toppings are delicious. The baked, I didn't care much for the sweet soy, but baking the oyster made the meat taste sweeter which was also delicious. Definitely can't go wrong with the HH menu whether you're just stopping in like me or kicking off a shabu shabu meal.Been here for HH twice now and service is superb. No complaints and can't wait to be back!
