The sashimi was delicious- very fresh and a good size cut. The baked dynamite roll was disappointing. California roll on the bottom wasn't warm, it was cold. Tasted really odd at first and was like.. it's missing something. Where's the spicy mayo on the side? read more

We went for dinner here to celebrate our son's birthday. Posted on their front door entrance is "Face Mask Required. No Mask. No Service." We requested for an outside patio table, we got the last table available out of only four patio dining tables. As soon as we get to their patio and about to seat on our designated table, I saw a big bug crawling on our dining table. The server tried to sweep it with his serving towel and it went down the floor. This Japanese restaurant doesn't have an outdoor patio "bug zapper" in spite of having pricey menu, We ordered Shrimp and Veggies Tempura, ($18.95) with salad, miso soup and white steamed rice. Cherry Blossom ($18.95) roll, Chicken Teriyaki ($15.95) with steamed rice, miso soup and veggie salad, Shrimp Shumai ($6.95), two pieces of fresh water eel sushi ($5.95). Their shrimp tempura and veggies had four pieces of shrimp covered by big slices of fried veggies served on a large plate. It's greasy. The grilled chicken teriyaki was sliced so thin. It's dry, hard and bland. The teriyaki sauce covers the meat just for taste. The shrimp shumai was steamed, taste ok like the one I used to buy frozen from Asian Supermarkets. The eel sushi is bland, you need to dip it in soy sauce to taste. Service is fast. Serving staff always come and ask if we're ok, but never bother to check if the green tea they served is hot or just lukewarm. Never bother to refill my glass of water with lemon. I wonder why there's no local Japanese customers dining-in during the time that we were there for dinner. This place was packed when we're about to leave. I would conclude that this restaurant is overrated. read more

Lone Star Roll is our usual go to but we've never had a bad meal here. It's a bit of a trek for us so our last time there, we bought two LS rolls and I brought about half of one home. Popped it in the air fryer for dinner and it was delicious! read more

Great service! I only ordered sashimi and coffee mochi. They do have fresh wasabi. Bento boxes do not offer sushi options. Lunch pricing was higher than anticipated for location and quality. Sushi was bland. Mochi was frost bitten or freezer burned. No WiFi here. I did not try rolls. So they may have more flavor. But I am a fresh sushi girl! Note: I went for lunch on Monday after fasting for a blood draw. I realize not all sushi places are great Monday. read more

Let me take you to my favorite sushi spot in Plano, TX (Dallas area), Densetsu. Having grown up in areas with fresh sushi, while in Dallas I had to try many places to find a good sushi spot. Densetsu ended up being that spot! Not only does everything consistently taste fresh and delicious, but they have a wide variety of apps, rolls, bento boxes, salads, noodles, rice bowls, traditional entrees, combo entrees, a kid's menu, and more! And all of their dishes are beautifully presented as well. They have great deals here too! They currently have two lunch time sushi bar specials - a Sushi Combination ($15.95) and Sashimi Combination ($19.95), as well as eight different lunch time bento box specials, ranging from $12.95-$16.95. With flavors and prices like these, this is a spot you don't want to miss! read more

Densetsu - Lunch special (one roll and 5 sushi + soup & salad) with spicy edamame - Japanese Near Me - Plano, Texas

First off I want to say that my two stars is strictly an average from our service (1 star) and the taste of the food (in my opinion of course 3 stars); I honestly rated this place LOWER than normal reviews because of the service and the way my friend and I were treated; but my reviews are usually rated on an average or just taste of food. My best friend and I came here for lunch last week with our kiddos. It was us two and four kids; we asked to sit on the patio because you know eating with small kids you never know what you're gonna get; lunch could be good or bad; so we didn't want to disrupt other people. This place is somewhat small, nice decor, nice size menu. Pricing is kinda in the middle of decent and high. Portions are ok on some dishes not great on others. Service was well.....I've never been treated this way ever with dining out. The business is Korean owned; most people don't realize I am Korean. And well this was very disappointing for me. When me and my bestie go eat we go big. We like to order lots of food. We ordered lots of nigiri, poke salad, the mussels, a few rolls, crispy spicy tuna, kids meals, etc. I've definitely had better sushi; the food is edible. Out of everything I got the sweet shrimp nigiri and the crispy tuna was the best. The poke salad was false advertisement; very little fish tons of avocado and TOMATOES! The mussels were over cooked to a disappointing stage. The rolls and other nigiri were like most places around town; good but not great. When we sat down; being a waitress/bartender for over 10 years back in my youth; I make it a point to always tip generously and always order at once and ask for everything upfront so I'm not running my waitress ragged. We had two young ladies wait on us; and when we put in our order I asked for the kids chopstick helpers and chopsticks from the get go. They never brought them and I had to ask like 5 times before one of them did. And every time they brought out a dish to our table they'd just plop it on the end where we had to get up or reach over to get it; even when they announced the dish and I or my friend was like oh that goes to us they'd plop it on the side. They weren't slammed; it was a light lunch flow; they barely came to check on us and they just kept acting like we were an inconvenience to them for being there; they were not friendly at all. I don't know if they both were having an off day or that they saw two moms bummed down with more kids than adults and assumed we were gonna be a not worth it table tip wise.... I don't really know. But if this is how they normally treat customers; I don't want any part of it. And on top of that they added gratuity; and wasn't going to tell us; I looked it over and was like the tips on there; then she came saying they added gratuity. They messed up both ways.... We would've still tipped more than the gratuity even though they were not nice to us and I won't be back to give business to this place. I love leaving great reviews on my eating adventures; but this one really was a terrible experience. You give off what you put out there in a sense and after 10 minutes of just not being treated appropriately it ruined our whole meal. I really hope they do better with customer service. (Usually I take tons of photos and share on social media; but I hardly took any here) read more

The sushi here did not disappoint!!! Hailing from LA, where Japanese food abounds, I wasn't sure how this restaurant would line up but was very satisfied. Ordered: Cherry Blossom Sushi (4.5/5) the sauce had a unique ponzu vinaigrette that paired so nicely with the sushi!! Big avocado and salmon filling with fresh tuna on top. Yuuuummmm!! Light and fresh. Lion King (4.5/5) salmon and shrimp tempura, tell me a tastier combo hehe. The sauce wasn't overpowering and the California roll part was really good. Tempura was crispy and the salmon fat ^^ Edamame (3/5) it was good, just basic salted edamame Service was very polite and plenty of parking in front. Densetsu did not lose to Cali! Also, they gave cute oranges at the end and I so miss that at restaurants. read more

Amazing foods. Amazing service. Amazing value. What else can I say? Densetsu is a small sushi restaurant located just few minutes away from Legacy Plano, which makes this location a superb place to visit. Tucked away at a corner adjacent to an intersection between Spring Creek Parkway and Coit Road, this sushi restaurant is maybe easy to miss, but don't be. The sushi rolls here are superb, and I definitely want to come back for more. We ordered a volcano roll, an Ahi Tower, two spicy tuna rolls, a dynamite roll, etc, and each one exhibited top quality taste. A bite from Ahi Tower almost got melted inside my mouth, and tunas are super fresh. For the dynamite roll, I could easily taste the warmth of a well arranged mix of craw fishes, scallops, and sushi rolls, which are nicely arranged inside a large white bowl. I also had a chance to try fried calamari tempuras and assorted vegetable tempuras, and they were super crispy and sumptious. Let's talk about the service. Service here is superb, as the waiters and waitresses are quick to make sure that you don't run out of water or dishes. They are kind and courteous so you can leave there with a nice impression feeling full and being treated well. From the price perspective, each sushi roll costs around $15-$17, which is definitely not inexpensive for the quality sushi rolls. Other rolls like cucumber roll cost less than $10, so the price is definitely justified. I've been to different sushi restaurants in Dallas-Fort Worth area, but this place does a great job hitting every point right, whether it is the food taste, value that you are paying for your foods, or the superb service. Thank you, Densetsu! No wonder you get overall 5 star rating out of 1K reviews. read more

I've heard good things so I stopped in here recently for a quick late lunch. Love that they do not close in the middle of the day like most sushi joints. The salmon tower caught my eye on the menu so I decided to splurge and order it as my meal. The presentation was very *wow* ...the meal once they do their fork smashing deal in front of you...massive. Enough for 3 meals maybe. Love the amount of food they give you at least you know you will have leftovers. Also a great thing to share if you're with others before ordering other items. The salmon itself wasn't the best I'd had, and the tower had a sweet sauce on it I could have done without. It was tasty but not something I'd rush to order again. Honestly I enjoyed the orange at the end probably more than the dish. I'd also likely take it to go next time as opposed to dining in. I'll give it another chance, perhaps go with someone who is a fan and knows what to order! read more

Sit at the bar for a little extra entertainment. The sushi chefs are easy going and friendly even if they're busy. I wasn't expecting the quality of sushi we got at Densetsu - it exceeded my expectations. Don't judge the place for its strip center location; it is laid back but it's high quality. Service was mediocre - but in fairness - the waiter told us it was his first day. Kudos to him for being honest. I'd definitely go back when in the area. What to order? Everything. Order an appetizer and watch the plates hover over the sushi bar to tables ... you'll get it. You're gonna want it all. read more

I know good sushi and this was not it. I Had Chirashi. The fish was not very fresh, kind of mealy and only had 6 small slices of fish. I ordered Mixed tempura. It was greasy and I could tell the oil was old. I had the pink dragon roll the fish MEH and had too much phony Krab and had miniscule tempura shrimp inside. Who thinks this place is any good does not know what good sushi is. Well, I will scratch this place off my list never to return. read more

I like this place very much, but last night, I ordered the katsudon and it wasn't so great. The pork was thin and stringy; the sauce was too sweet; there was hardly any egg on it. A lot of rice. But like I said, I like this place very much. Just stay away from the katsudon. read more

I got Oyakko Don, which is pan fried chicken with onions, egg and rice. It was good but it could have used just a tad more flavor. I didn't put any soy sauce on it so I will for my leftovers. It may give it the kick it needs. The California Roll was very fresh. I know it doesn't seem like you can go wrong with this but it's better than any place I've ever had. Miso soup was good but not pictured and salad. I would definitely go back just for the rolls. read more

Densetsu is self-proclaimed as the "Best Sushi in Plano." While I don't think it's quite the best, I'd still say it's a job solid spot for sushi! I had the lunch special and Red Mountain roll. I'd say the qualify of the fish on the nigiri is what I'd expect for the price. The miso soup was good, but the salad was too vinegary for my liking. The Red Mountain roll was MASSIVE and filling, but i felt like the rice was just a tad too sweet. read more

While in the area running some errands, my mom and I were craving some sushi. I didn't do a ton of research before picking this place but saw it had a high rating so why not give it a try? The restaurant was pretty packed when we arrived but we were still able to be seated immediately. With it being a small sized restaurant, the tables are very close together so there's not a ton of privacy. Someone came by and grabbed our drink order and then a short while later a different person came by to take our food order and offer some help with the menu. Staff was friendly and helpful. The menu is pretty extensive i would say. They not only have a large selection of sushi but they also have regular entrees such as noodles, rice bowls and more! Everything tasted really good and fresh. I'm still experimenting with my taste for sushi so im not an expert by any means but if the pieces of the roll are too big for one bite it's really off-putting for me. I'm sorry! The California roll was the only roll that had pieces that weren't the size of my hand, literally. The rolls were very hard to manage lol That being said, now knowing this, i have a better idea of what to order and would likely return. read more

Last night, I stopped by Densetsu for dinner. There is plenty of parking in front of the building when you arrive. When we were seated, we ordered the miso soup, which was delicious on a cold winter day. We also ordered the spicy tuna roll, which had a reasonable level of spice, the California hand roll, which was excellent, and the Ahi tuna tower, which was a little sweeter but had high quality ingredients. The waiter even created an ahi tuna tower heart for us and mixed the ingredients. I can't wait to visit Densetsu again in the future. read more

I definitely won't hesitate coming back here! read more

I've been here multiple times and this place has been nothing by phenomenal. However, today (6-27-2022) has been the most disappointing and upsetting. The ahi tower is absolutely lacking tuna. You're essentially paying $22 for one long thin slice of chewy tuna chopped up in 9 pieces with a pile of rice/imitation crab meat. The proportion is way off, as well as quality, and it wasn't like this before. The kids chicken teriyaki is chewy as well and you're literally just ingesting the sauce. I'm just hoping this is an off Monday the restaurant is having because this is enough to deter any customer. read more

Ordered bunch of dishes to-go. Some were okay and most were not so good (possibly due to being take out). - Shrimp shumai - the wrapping was a tad too thick - Seasame chicken - I had certain expectations for this and was disappointed - Dynamite appetizer - so bland!! I've had delicious dynamite at other sushi joints and this was by far the worst. Would never order it again. - Katsu don - they didn't put sauce on the side so the rice was saucy/soggy. The smelt egg on top was kind of gross. - baked salmon roll - densetsu roll - beef yakisoba - the noodles were good but the bell peppers in the dish ruined it for me The rolls were an awkward size; either stuff your mouth for 1 bite or make a mess with 2 bites. The katsu don could possibly taste better if eaten in the restaurant. There was absolutely no crispy coating on the pork, probably because it was in an invented take out box and also had an egg stuck on top. If I were to ever return, I'd probably stick with a roll. read more

You can not beat the quality of this sushi and sushi rolls! So fresh and well made. I am always impressed when dining at Densetsu and hope to return soon. Let me start by saying, the rumors are true- the rolls are huge and they don't skimp on the meat. This place also isn't cheap so you are getting what you pay for. While I appreciate that the rolls are big- they are also impractical to eat in one bite and instantly break apart when you try to bite in. Haven't found a happy medium but still highly recommend. They have the best California roll I've ever had. I know this is basic but that's the point, even this basic little roll is expertly made. $7.50 for 8 rolls. Worth it if you want something simple on the side. Today we tried the Salmon Tempura Roll ($18). SOO GOOD. Usually I dip all my sushi rolls in spicy mayo and soy sauce but they really tasted great dry as well. I don't know if I like their eel sauce that much but overall it was a great dish. For the price, I do wish there were a couple more rolls but they were huge. Beef Don Rice Bowl (12.95): pretty large bowl of food. Definitely need more sauce as it tasted a bit dry. Comes with miso soup and their salad with mystery dressing. I'm not a big fan of their dressing but I know it's really popular and a guarded secret that the wait staff don't even know what it's made of. In the 45 minutes we were there, they probably filled over 30 to go orders. There were people picking up deliveries and to go orders every other minute. This place is extremely popular! Next time, I'd like to try the Ahi Tower with tuna or salmon. read more

Sushi is good all the time. I feel like a fish out of water when I don't have my weekly sushi. Checked out a new spot in Dallas while catching up with an old friend. Honestly the hand rolls were massive and the nigiri was spot on delicious for their prices. If you're up for something safe this spot is for you. I think they do it well and have a great price point especially if you're tired of Kura or AYCE. (Nigiri I got sake, hamachi, saba, Inari, and hotate. Hand rolls were spicy tuna and spicy scallop.) read more

This place is one of my favorite sushi places I've ever been to! Usually, sushi rolls are simple, one-bite-at-a-time kinda meals - not this place! The rolls are huge and full of imitation crab with quality, LARGE pieces of fish on top. So so yummy and worth it! My sister and I came here for lunch and got: - Red Mountain Roll ($16.95): this thing was "close your eyes and enjoy the beautiful thing in your mouth" magical. Melted in my mouth! - Baked Salmon Roll ($13.95): it came warm, with eel sauce, and tasted AMAZING. The amount of imitation crab was insane and the flavor was so good. - Oyakko Don Bowl ($11.95): This was also really good, I make this sometimes for lunch at home and it had the same comforting feel. Amazing flavor. Overall, such a great place and would HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend! read more

Got take out for lunch from here - it was a super cute interior and even though they were very busy they were still very nice and promptly took care of their take out customers! I got the Angry John Roll and the Sushi Omakase: The Angry John roll was DELICIOUS and HUGE! It was such a filling roll with a generous amount of fish. I would order it again! The flavors and spiciness paired very well together to have a great combination in every bite. The Sushi Omakase had 10 different pieces of nigiri to try which was awesome! The quality of some fish didn't seem too high, so I didn't enjoy it as much as I enjoyed the roll. I definitely would come back and focus more on the rolls they have rather than the sashimi/nigiri, but overall it was pretty good! read more

Had their lunch sushi combination (with the spicy tuna roll) for $13.95. It also came with a nice salad and miso soup. The salad dressing was paired well with the tomatoes and cucumber. I would have appreciated the rice layer in the sushi to be a little thinner. The spicy tuna was not very spicy so would have appreciated more of a kick. The chef's choice of sushi did not disappoint. The fish and shrimp was fresh. I definitely enjoyed chef's choice more than the spicy tuna roll because it brought different flavors and texture with each piece. read more
