    Enjoyed Bincho Tan Bistro with friends. Happy to see they have a lunch menu which I ordered from. Had the unagi roll, florida roll, & hamachi roll. Also tried the spicy hamachi roll. All were very good. Florida Roll and hamachi roll were my fave. Next time I'd like to try the mini chirashi bowl. Everyone we came across was super helpful and friendly from start to finish. The restaurant is so pretty with nice detail. Would love to come visit here again! Definitely a great sushi Japanese spot in the area!!

    Four of us went to lunch to try this place up in Lutz. It's bright, clean, spacious and special. There is an amazing mural on the left wall and an eclectic collection of Labubu toys and neat Lego sets on the right. I've never seen anything like it! None of it is for sale as it's apparently the owner's personal collection! Noel kindly served us and was happy to both provide separate checks and ensure all our questions were answered. Thanks Noel! We ordered all sorts of items off the lunch menu including yakitori, sushi and a bowl. Everyone agreed that everything was excellent and tasty plus artfully presented! Sarah kindly took a few moments to provide a partial tour of the toy collection. Thanks Sarah! My favorite was the little Lego sushi! Life is great with an excellent unique restaurant with great service and food! Don't sleep on Lutz!

    The sushi here was really fresh. I placed a large order for pick up and the food was ready on time. When I walked in on a Friday around 6 this place was at full capacity. The ceilings were high, lighting was bright and I loved the mural art on the wall. I ordered 2 of the Feast for Four, Philly Wonton Bites and 1 sushi sashimi set. This was plenty for a party of 6. We loved how fresh the fish was. Some of our favorite rolls include the Over the World, Siesta, Black Dragon and the Unagi roll. The prices were reasonable and I loved the variety of fish options. The carry out bags were neatly sealed and they even have branded wet wipes. I'll definitely be back to try some of their other sashimi options.

    Bincho Tan provides an amazing Japanese cuisine addition to the north Tampa/Lutz. We would have not known that this restaurant existed if it was not for the menu pamphlet we received in our mail. Seeing that Bincho Tan offered charcoal-grilled style BBQ ("binchotan" is actually the type of charcoal) skewers from their menu, we decided to give it a go to satisfy our curiosity. What we found in Bincho Tan exceeded our expectations. Located off Van Dyke Road in the Northgate Square Plaza of the Cheval sub-division, Bincho Tan sits quietly next to the Publix supermarket. Naturally it shares the parking lot with the rest of the businesses in the plaza, but the lot is large enough where parking is not an issue. As you enter the restaurant, you find yourself immersed in a modern interior that provides an eclectic mixture of styles - with barnyard rustic aesthetic in the seating, paired with Japanese art motif along the walls, and brass-colored fixtures. Along the bar and counter-seating, there's a collection of Lego/assorted Brick builds that hang above while large-size Labubus and other Asian collectibles give a playful ring to the restaurant. This is a long overdue review, as we visited the restaurant in January. When we came, we were greeted by a welcoming staff and seated prompted at a booth. Our server was extremely pleasant and cordial - a delight to interact with as he introduced the menu and specials while taking down our requests and orders. The restaurant is quite spacious offering a variety of booth, bench, table, and counter-top seating (great for varying party sizes). The menu offered a great variety of selections from sushi/sashimi and rolls to more hefty meals, all of course in addition to the BBQ skewers. The originality of plates and dishes available is a great quality of Bincho Tan. It was almost overwhelming, but we made our selections and saved some in our mental storage for a future visit. Most, if not all, the food was on point - we ordered one of each of the skewers, being extremely happy with the grilled shishito peppers. We ordered one of the specials that day - a prepared uni (sea urchin) roll that was pretty good. Overall, Bincho Tan offered a great experience and dinner meal for us. We would definitely come back here again to explore the other offerings and selections! We definitely recommend this restaurant to all locals!

    This is my new favorite Japanese restaurant. The large menu selection, beautifully decorated interior, and the fresh material, good chef skills, attentive service earned the 5 stars fair and square. We visited them twice in a week, thus proved the points. Among the many dishes we ordered, in the gold class roll, spicy Hamachi roll was my top favorite. It is only a little bit spicy so don't be fool. The flavor, the texture was good. Mini chirashi from the lunch menu also very nice- big pieces of sashimi, beautifully presented, seasoned sushi rice at the bottom, such a wonderful bowl. For yakitori, the chicken gizzars was my top favorite. Chicken thigh and pork belly were also quite good. We had a short ribs signature men. It was a good dish if you are craving for noodle. The ginger dressing salad, miso soup were tasty. On the top of the bar, there are many Lego houses and Labubu dolls decorations. My personal favorite is "the club" on the check-in station. This is such a fun place to visit and dine. Good food and vibe ,and they have kids' menu.

    Eel roll & Triple Roll
    Heather N.

    I hate to be the first to not give a 5 star review but didn't really enjoy the food. Our service was great and the restaurant is cute inside. The a/c wasn't working well and it was warm inside. We got lunch specials (two rolls & soup or salad). The salad was completely covered with a thousand-island-like dressing--disappointing for us because we were expected ginger dressing. And the raw sushi rolls were warm/room temp which seemed odd (maybe the rice was hot?). The sushi wasn't rolled tight either and were falling apart. The Mexican was the best I'd say but the eel tasted too fishy. I'd give them another try because I you can tell this local restaurant is trying to provide a good experience.

    Wish I had included the soft-shell appetizer. I'll just have to order it again and get a photo!

    My husband and I tried this bistro for the first time Monday and had an absolutely wonderful experience. The owner graciously offered to give us a cold sake tasting selecting several of her finest dry ones. We chose one that was new to us and it was fabulous. Their house tomato garlic dipping sauce with just a little heat put the edamame on the next level! The sashimi was fresh and the Florida roll served with our request for eel sauce was served beautifully with a fresh flower garnish. The whole soft-shell crab was seasoned with delicious breading. The lollypop roll was fresh and crunchy. The attention to every detail, from the serving dishes, menu format, decor and personal attention from both the owner and server, our first experience was stellar and we plan to make it a regular Monday late lunch.

    Edamame, spicy

    Came from St Pete for Christmas meal with my family and absolutely couldn't have picked a better place! The restaurant is gorgeous inside with custom murals, hanging fish lights and beautiful bar/suhi area. The staff were very welcoming, helpful and attentive. We ordered a sample of many items as everything on menu looked so good the best part was it all tasted amazing too! The spicy edamame sauce was so flavorful! The Christmas roll specials were so well put together and the rice in the sushi was the perfect texture. I am already planning on coming back with a group of friends!

    Bincho-Tan Feast feeds 2, but it definitely fed 3 !  3 Gold Class and 2 Black Class sushi rolls of your choice

    This is a hidden gem in the Lutz area. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with fun, unique decor that creates an elevated yet casual dining experience. The food was phenomenal. Each roll had its own distinct flavor profile, making every bite feel like a new experience. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and each roll was perfectly balanced in flavor. I'll definitely be back to explore more of their flavorful, well-balanced, and robust rolls.

    The cutest hole in the wall sushi spot! From the anime cat mural to the hanging plants to the warehouse style ceilings to the lego town hanging over the sushi bar, this place is fun and original. Snappy and attentive service top! Sushi is great. We had the tuna tartar which was excellent with delicious sauce, avocado, green onions and salmon roe. It was great although the corn chips served with it were an enigma. Sushi is amazing, fresh, delicious and the rolls are enormous - at least 1.5x as big as most other places. Our new favorite sushi spot. Extra points for being next door to the UPS store so you can do your Amazon returns on the same trip!

    BBQ eel skewer, pork belly skewer, complimentary side dishes of kimchi and seaweed salad, hot sake. All delicious.
    Mattie M.

    I went for the soft opening on Christmas Day here. The first bite of the pork belly skewer seriously made my eyes roll back into my head. Unbelievably good Bincho-tan barbecue at a very reasonable price. I cannot wait to come back! Service was perfect. The restaurant is clean and beautifully decorated. This is, hands down, in my humble opinion, THE best restaurant for Japanese barbecue in the Tampa Bay area. You need to try this place.
