An adorable spot overall but even better, the food is actually good. Some of the freshest sushi around and ordering it as takeout was so nice. They package it so well and completely accurate, nothing was missing. overall a great experience and left me wanting more, we will be coming back! read more

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. read more

Got ubereats here so I can only speak to takeout. The sushi was just average at best. I like how the rice to fish portion in the rolls but the rice was a bit hard. I like soft pillowy rice that melts. The sushi was also unflavorful. I usually can eat rolls without soy sauce but soy sauce was definitely required on these. I also got the black pepper noodles which were a bit too plain and greasy. It wasn't a total disappointment but I don't think I'll be ordering from here anytime soon. read more

Overall all went well. Greeted and sat quickly as well as in a friendly manner. Restaurant was clean. Server was good as 2 that appeared to be supervisors came over to make sure all was good. Ordered a few featured Martinis of which the Shiso Moon was tasty. Started with 2 Avocado Couture appetizers which were good, but seemed more like a salad with some Avocado with some mango. Then ordered the Feast for 4 which included 2 Special Rolls and 2 Basic Rolls, plus we added one fried roll. All sushi was tasty and fresh tasting. Ambiance including the music was good. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

My favorite go-to dish to bring to a party is a sushi platter and boy did Binchō-Tan Bistro deliver! I've been living in the general area for over a year now and finding good sushi and service has been very challenging. Not only is it a beautiful, trendy, and clean restaurant, the staff and owner were so delightful to work with. They knew exactly what I was looking for and went above and beyond to provide a perfect product and experience. The platter was arranged and garnished so perfectly but most importantly, every roll was so fresh and delicious. It was without a doubt, the hit of the party and I cannot wait to dine in this beautiful restaurant again! Thank you!! read more

We love Bincho Tan. Since new ownership took, Icy and her team have transformed the place. The menu is great, food always hits. Extremely clean and friendly. There is not another Asian place in Lutz that even comes close to comparing. read more

Have eaten in person and gotten take out total of 3 times in past two months. Our food was always made with fresh ingredients, very flavorful, and very affordable, for both the high quality of the food and the service behind it. Barbie the owner is quick to respond to questions about the various menu items and preparation of the food. I had concerns with my first take out order which she addressed with my next take out order to make sure I was satisfied with the results. It is nice to have a go to restaurant like this in the Lutz/Cheval area which has been a bit of a food desert up until now. read more

Amazing food! Great menu and selection of options. The atmosphere is really cool and unique for a sushi spot. Loved it

This is a new place with epic Asian pop-culture decor- much nicer ambiance than typical quick serve Asian restaurants. We ordered a little of everything and it was all amazing! Spicy garlic edamame (for the adults), gyoza and calamari apps for kiddos- all a hit, and noodles with veg and chicken always a favorite. Best part is it's extremely gluten friendly!! The Island Roll with tempura shrimp and delicious dipping sauce is a must if you like things a little sweet and a salmon roll with a little crunch and avocado was a great combo for the savory side. Don't think you can go wrong with any roll though- the owners seriously care about the quality and your experience so just ask them what is good and what you like and they'll set you up! read more

Tops. Absolutely the best. I had yakitori and it was perfect. I am an old geezer and I left my shoulder pack there, got in my car and was driving away. Then the young man from the restaurant came running up (all the way across the parking lot) and had my shoulder pack. That is going above and beyond. I sure will be back. Everything on the menu is great. read more
