    Seats are hard wood, very uncomfortable. The establishment needs to provide cushions, different chairs, or something.

    Our waiter (Matthew, I think!) was wonderful. The food was spectacular!!! We ordered too much and STILL finished it all because every bite was enjoyable. The Hiro-Leili Maki, Shrimp Tempura & Avocado Maki, and Hotate Mayo Nigiri were our favorite bites of the night. But we also enjoyed other rolls and appetizers. The cocktails (albeit very expensive) were superb too. Overall, it was the perfect date night. Fantastic service, food & cocktails! Can't wait to go back!

    Been going to japango for years now quite frequently and they never disappoint. Everyone I’ve brought there says the same… the sushi is always outstanding no matter what you get. Highly suggest the ginger sake, and kitsunes roll. Matthew our server was also amazing… great suggestions and pleasant person to interact with. I will continue to go back and hopefully continue to have Matt help us out. Thanks for another wonderful evening guys!!!
