Romantic date night spot with the lighting and seating arrangement. Enjoyed everything my partner and I ordered. Hamachi kama (yellowtail collar) was especially tender and the pork jowl + plum paste was a delicious palate combo
We had a lovely Father's Day dinner here! Everything was delicious, especially the Yuzu Hama roll & the Crunchy Eel roll. Loved the Hamachi Crudo as well & also all 3 desserts, especially the crème brûlée. They sat my family in a private room & the ambiance was lovely. The service was great as well. We will be back!
Awesome service, lovely ambiance, and fantastic food! We tried quite a few items: -Matcha old fashioned -Hamachi crudo -BBQ pork ribs -Karaage -Brussels sprouts with walnuts and golden raisins -Pork belly and pork jowl from the grill -Assorted tempura -Tuna bowl and roll -Spicy poke bowl -Duck udon Everything was amazing. This place is hands down the best real deal Japanese I have found in DFW (easily comparable to any of my favorites in SoCal). I would come back here in a heartbeat to try the rest of the menu!
Tried out this location for the very first time. The restaurant was modern inside, very roomy, and had plenty of sitting options. I ordered the miso soup and tried out two of their rolls which included the spicy crunchy avocado roll as well as the spicy crunchy salmon roll. Each roll came with 8 pieces which was a pretty good portion. My favorite out of the two was the spicy crunchy salmon roll as it had a better flavor than the avocado roll. Service was good as well in my opinion as our waiter was very friendly. Overall not a bad experience.
This sushi spot is perfect if you love fresh fish, a cozy sexy vibe, and that charming small-town feel in a historic setting. I came here for a birthday celebration with friends, and we had a great time! Their sushi rolls are creative and full of personality .. if you're into onion, spicy, or tangy vinegar flavors, you'll definitely appreciate their style. And the best surprise? All desserts are made in-house -- a delicious and unexpected twist for a sushi restaurant.
EBESU is a hidden gem in Plano. Their menu is extremely thoughtful and contains multiple price points for all customers. The sushi was fresh and tasty. There's ample street parking and the location has about 15 tables. There's also rooms for large parties.
Emily served us today and she was very pleasant, I would go out of my way to sit in her section. We started with Herederod Del Marques de Riscal Rioja wine which was very nice, especially for $42 a bottle. The garlic oyster edamame was almost overcooked but still good. I would have loved more garlic flavor and less oyster sauce. The sashimi for two was delicious and very well presented. The gyoza's were so good. They were served with two different sauces both equally good and bringing different flavors out of the appetizers. I ordered the deluxe avocado roll and I would not recommend it especially for $18.It was boring and lacked any flavor or texture. The croissant bread pudding was pretty good, it would have been amazing with a liquor in the white chocolate. Tomo was an amazing manager, visiting with all the guest and ensuring everyone was happy. I will definitely be back to try other things on the menu. Great place to hang.
We celebrated a birthday dinner at Ebesu and had such a great experience! The atmosphere was warm, calm, and beautiful with perfect lighting, and it was easy to hear each other, which made the evening even better. It feels upscale yet comfortable, the kind of place where you can truly relax and enjoy your time. The sushi rolls were creative and unique, not your typical basic options, but we decided to go with sashimi and their homemade desserts instead. I mentioned that I have a bad reaction to ginger, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure my sashimi was prepared in a separate area. That level of care and attention really stood out. The desserts were honestly the best ever! They were beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. Ebesu is perfect for special occasions or a peaceful dinner with great conversation. The attention to detail, quiet setting, and incredible desserts make it one of my new favorite spots in Plano.
It had been a while since my last visit to Ebesu, so I chose it for my birthday dinner, hoping for a great experience. Sadly, it turned out to be a major disappointment. I used to really enjoy this place, but the service this time was shockingly bad. Our waitress took our order and then vanished. We didn't see her again until about an hour and half later when she returned -- just to drop off the check. Throughout the night, we had our waters refilled once at the very end. The whole table sat through the dinner with empty water glasses for pretty much the entire time. We ordered a number of dishes. We started with the karaage, potatoes, and deluxe salmon roll. The karaage was a letdown -- the batter was slightly burnt and fell off with each bite. On the plus side, the potatoes and salmon roll were pretty good. The truffle mayo served with the potatoes was especially tasty. Our waiter told us we could request more if we liked -- which we did -- but he forgot to bring it. Next came the tsukemen and Buri Shabu, and unfortunately, both were underwhelming. The tsukemen broth, which I normally love, was unbalanced with an overpowering taste of sake (?) and soy sauce. It didn't taste anything like how I remembered it. The Buri Shabu's broth was incredibly salty, although the yellowtail itself was cooked well and had decent flavor. The real issue was that the dipping sauce -- an essential part of the dish -- didn't arrive until we were down to our final slice of yellowtail, a full 25 minutes after it was served. Strangely, none of the food was brought by our original waitress. A different server handled most of the food delivery and made repeated mistakes throughout the night. To top it all off, someone at our table ordered the bacon scallops appetizer, which never arrived. It wasn't on the final bill, so it seems it was completely forgotten. At the end of the meal, we asked for a to-go box for our leftover yellowtail collar. The waiter kindly offered to pack it in the back and include ponzu sauce, but when we got it back, the ponzu was missing too. Overall, while the staff was polite, the number of mistakes and lack of attentiveness ruined what should have been a special occasion.
Delicious sushi, a little pricey but we had a nice time! The restaurant itself is quiet and very upscale.
I picked this Sushi restaurant because I drive by it in a Saturday night and from the door it seemed like it was hopping. Because of the price range I assumed it was high end and a swanky place. Your disappointment, none of that was true but it was my assumption and not the fault of the restaurant. The ambiance is nothing special. The sushi rolls we had were just alright but the service was great by Nancy. It was our Anniversary so they gave us an anniversary dessert, which happened to be one of the more delicious cheesecakes I've had in a very long time. We did very much enjoy that. However, I got dressed up when I could have easily walked in with a pair of shredded Jean shorts to sushi that I don't write home about. We give this place a 4 star because it was our expectation that was off, not the restaurant. But we will not return, there are far better places to go for sushi.
We made a reservation for our anniversary on a Saturday night at 6pm. This is our second time here celebrating an occasion and definitely still very impressed. It's an intimate but upscale feel with excellent and fresh food. The servers are very kind and attentive and enhance the overall experience. Definitely recommend the ebesu course, we did the signature last time and the 4-course this time, and both have great variety and quality. Standouts for us are (1) hamachi crudo with soft yellowtail and a perfect pairing of jalapeño and light citrus sauce (2) robata assortment with flavorful fresh fish, chicken, asparagus, and corn (3) croissant pudding that's warm buttery soft paired with vanilla ice cream (5) bara-chirashi with generous fresh cuts of yellowtail and tuna (we asked to sub out salmon) with sesame seeds, cucumber, tamago. If you love these specific cuts of fish I would actually recommend the chirashi over the nigiri assortment due to the volume. Otherwise the nigiri is a nice alternative with a variety of fish pieces. Overall a 10/10 and loved celebrating here! Order - crunchy toro roll $20 (only item don't rec) - pomepolitan drink $8 ebesu 4-course $62 ea 1st course - hamachi crudo - baby back pork rib 2nd course - robata assortment 3rd course - nigiri assortment - bara-chirashi dessert of the day - croissant pudding - chocolate cake - cheesecake on the house!
I can't believe I have not written a review for this place! This has been our go-to spot for celebrations (birthdays and anniversaries) throughout the years. However, the past two times we shared this place with another couple who loves sushi just as much as my husband and I do. One reason we kept coming back, aside from all the delicious food, was how they labeled their menu with the top food allergens. As a food allergy mom, I appreciated this so much! Especially when I was still breastfeeding, I had to eliminate all of my daughter's allergies to breastfeed safely. The main ones I had to look out for was gluten, dairy, egg, nuts, and sesame seeds. The safe was aware of my limitations and shared empathy, not annoyance like other places. T Thankfully I'm out of that stage so I can eat anything on the menu now. We would like to take our daughter here some day, she loves sushi a lot! But being only 5 years old, we'll need to save it for a special occasion. We get carried away when we come here. The food here is top notch and worth every penny, so we'll have to save up. Cooked dishes we always order: Brussel sprouts, steamed mushrooms, hamachi collar and miso cod. All the nigiri/sushi is fresh and you can't ignore the specials or seasonal menu! read more
We tried EBESU, Service was good, seating was comfortable, and there was no wait on a Friday night. We ordered sushi rolls (California, salmon avocado, and avocado rolls), and each roll came with 8 pieces. Everything was fresh but was bland and all tasted very similar, nothing particularly special or memorable. read more

This has been one of the best experiences I've ever had at a restaurant and some of the best sushi ever! For a signature roll, I ordered the Yuzu Hama Roll. It combines yellowtail, serrano peppers, and a truffle vinaigrette for a perfect balance of flavors. Absolutely incredible. I also had the tako, maguro, and suzuki nigiri. Every piece was exceptionally fresh, with beautiful presentation and attention to detail. The quality here is top-notch. My favorite is the crunchy Eel tempura roll, it's a must !!! The service was impeccable by everyone especially by Ryan our server. The sushi was so fresh and delicious. I'm so so so happy we chanced upon this place. Thank you for topping off a wonderful day. read more

I love Ebesu! I went here for Restaurant Week 2025 and they always deliver. They provide a variety of dishes for their restaurant week and everything was delicious. I especially enjoyed the Wagyu Stone dish and their nigiris. The waitress was also able to explain the dishes on the menu and was very friendly. This place has a very relaxing ambiance with their lighting. read more
This review is a bit delayed as we visited Ebesu back in November for our anniversary celebration, but I couldn't not write a review for this place as it was such a fantastic experience! My fiance and I both went for the regular Ebesu course which is a 4 course dinner consisting of an appetizer, a robata assortment, a main entree, and a dessert. Everything we had was so delicious and so flavorful -- in particular, all of the raw fish (from the hamachi crudo to the nigiri assortment and bara-chirashi don) was very fresh, and the robata assortment was also cooked perfectly. Once we finished our first 3 courses (aka before dessert), we decided to get the A5 wagyu on hot rock just so we could try it out. It was so much fun getting to cook the wagyu ourselves, and they also provided a few different sauces / condiments including smoked soy sauce, truffle ponzu, kizami wasabi, and garlic chips. I loved all of the flavor combinations! Finally, for dessert, both of us opted for the croissant pudding and to our delight, the staff brought out an extra cheesecake dessert for our anniversary! This was such a phenomenal way to end our meal. Oh, and the desserts were spectacular, especially that warm croissant pudding paired with ice cream :) read more
This was a highly anticipated visit due to the fact that it was featured on Yelp's 100 Places to Eat nationally. This place is a small Yelp upscale sushi and robata experience that features excellent, attentive service as well as fresh and tasty options. We started off with Peach Martini mocktails that were tasty although a little too sweet for my personal preference. We ordered an appetizer of the Hamachi Crudo, Fried Brussel Sprouts, and the Fried Spicy Mayo Prawns. The Hamachi Crudo was excellent featuring very fresh yellowtail with notes of citrus and spicy flavors. The Brussels sprouts were highlighted by the walnuts. The prawns reminded me of dynamite shrimp but 3 prawns for the price of $15 is asking a lot. One of the entrees that we got was the Black Cod Miso Yaki. I personally wasn't a fan but my wife really enjoyed it. I personally think that Nobu has the better black cod miso. We also got a few of the signature rolls. My absolute favorite roll was the Deluxe Salmon Roll. The fresh, smoky, subtly crispy marriage of all the ingredients really made this one of my more enjoyable bites of the night. We also got the Yuzu Hama Roll and the Crunchy Eel Tempura but they couldn't hold a candle compared to the Deluxe Salmon Roll. We also got a couple of Nigiri options with the Unagi and the Aburi Chu-Toro. Those bites were absolutely delightful. We had a couple of a desserts to end the night with the Matcha Tiramisu and a cheesecake that was given to us for birthday celebrations. I've been reading high praise for the tiramisu but let me tell you that the absolute star was that Matcha Cheesecake. It was served slightly warm but that was what made it one of the better Asian desserts I've ever had. I would come back again just for this cheesecake. I was extremely happy with my experience. There was very minimal wait time in between dishes and everything came out so fast. The servers were highly attentive. This is a smaller location in downtown Plano so I highly recommend making a reservation on their website. Parking could get tricky in downtown Plano but luckily we got there early enough to secure a close spot. Give yourself time to park before arriving for your reservation. This restaurant absolutely deserves its place on the Yelp 100. If you were ever hoping to go to Nobu or Uchi, this is a very comparable location and the prices are better. I personally like Uchi the best out of the 3 but Ebesu deserves its flowers. read more
This is a stylish intimate restaurant with contemporary vibes in the heart of historic downtown Plano. Definitely need reservations because it's a small and popular place. There were a few snafus that warranted 4 instead of 5 stars. First, the wins. Husband's sushi roll was fresh, delicious and artfully presented. My California roll was the same. I appreciated the toasted sesame which so many sushi places do not add. Also service was friendly and above average. The misses: the gin and tonic while artful, was mostly ice. It had a long rectangular molded ice cube that extended the length of the glass, read less gin and mostly ice, which is a bummer. Also, the edamame was soggy, not the crispness one expects from a higher end restaurant. Lastly, the sushi roll that our friends' ordered had a more than slight fishy smell. Did we tell them?! No! We're bad friends-you may not want to eat out with us! read more

I had dinner at EBESU with my family this past weekend and had a great meal. We shared a lot of dishes: homemade gyoza (chicken, pork, yuzu kosho, ponzu); crispy baby river crabs (a special that night); Baby Back Pork Ribs (hoisin bbq sauce); Hamachi Toro sashimi; pork curry noodles (we chose soba); black code miso yaki (grilled miso marinated black cod); sweet yellow corn (with soy butter); mixed mushroom (with teriyaki sauce); a mushroom Don/rice bowl; Unagi sashimi; and tamago sashimi. Everything was delicious, classic but well executed. We also shared a bottle of sake (they had a lot of options to choose from). The ambiance and service are top-notch. We had a private room with a pocket door entrance, and our servers were wonderful and helpful and so friendly. Overall, a very good meal, one I'd be happy to repeat. read more

I had an omakase with a friend and Ebesu and it was honestly 10/10! I really appreciated that it wasn't just nigiri or sashimi but with a most of poke, roasted balls(?), corn as well as dessert. I haven't had anything from their regular menu but I highly recommend having omakase because it's also always fun to be right by the chefs and watch them work their magic. Service was reasonably quick though we didn't feel rushed and the over all vibe was chill. Highly recommend and I would go back in a heartbeat. read more
Trendy atmosphere, not too loud. Our 7pm reservation was busy but not crowded. Workers are very friendly and our server, Emily, was so sweet! All of the food was incredibly fresh and had such a distinctive high quality to it. Our favorites were the Tuna Flatbread, A5 Wagyu, and the sashimi, which was SO soft and buttery. additionally, we had a birthday with us, and they gave us a cheesecake and candle! Everyone was so helpful and attentive. We tried both the regular and EBESU Signature Course and honestly, it was all worth the money for the quality it came with. This was such an enjoyable night for our family and if you'd like to try a flavorful, fresh, unique menu, this place is the way to go. read more
EBESU Robata & Sushi is hands down the best sushi I've had in Plano and easily in my top three for all of DFW. I've been to plenty of sushi spots across the area, but nothing compares to the crunchy rolls here. I had the crunchy spicy yellowtail and crunchy spicy tuna rolls, and they were on another level. It's not even close. For a signature roll, I went with the Yuzu Hama Roll. It features yellowtail, serrano peppers, and a truffle vinaigrette that ties everything together perfectly. Truly amazing. I also ordered the tako, maguro, and suzuki nigiri. Each piece was incredibly fresh and beautifully prepared. You can tell the quality of the fish is a priority here. The vibe was warm and traditional, with a welcoming atmosphere that sets the perfect tone for a sushi night. It was surprisingly busy for a Monday evening, but the staff handled it seamlessly. My waitress, Laura, was perfectly attentive and friendly, and Tomo, who I believe is the manager, was just as fantastic. If you're serious about sushi, EBESU is a must visit. It's the kind of place you'll want to keep coming back to. read more

Solid Japanese restaurant with a variety of food including sushi & sashimi. The inside is casual yet slightly upscale which makes it appropriate for various occasions. Good service. Lots of cocktail options as well. I got the fancier Nigiri assortment. Their sushi wasn't as great as other sushi-dedicated restaurants but pretty solid. If you're in the area and looking for a solid Japanese restaurant I would recommend EBESU but if you're looking for sushi only I wouldn't. read more

An unfortunate side-effect of landing on Yelp's "Top 100 US Restaurants" list is that the bar is set very high. The experience started by me getting an email the day before that my reservation had been cancelled after having just recently confirmed it via text. I was told it was "because I told them I was sick". That was three weeks earlier on an entirely separate reservation; I intentionally did not just modify the date on the initial reservation in order to try to avoid confusion like this. Fortunately I checked my email before heading there since that was the only way I was notified. It's always a plus for me (extra stars) when ethnic restaurants feel exceptionally authentic (e.g. Tatsu). Seeing a few "non-Japanese / Asian" workers, including behind the sushi bar, did not take away any stars, but also didn't earn them any extras. Decided on the "Ebesu Signature Course Dinner". At $79.20 after a 20% "happy hour discount" it looked like a great value! Through the first (hamachi crudo), second (sashimi petite), third (Robata assortment) and even fourth (A5 Wagyu on hot rock) courses, I was still feeling like this would be a place deserving a return visit. The entree (fifth course) you'd expect to be a highlight or at least equal in quality to the others. It was not. Partially due to me receiving Negi-Toro Tekka Don when I was certain I ordered Bara-Chirashi Don--I would never order anything that said it contained "ground fatty tuna". While I probably could have made a bigger deal of that and gotten a replacement, I saw the chirashi and it looked more like a poke bowl with small cubes of fish. So I stuck with what I was given which ended up being the worse experience of the night... not only because I'm not a fan of ground raw fish, but it also had a stringy gristle-like texture between that and the blue fin tuna pieces. The entree dropped this from a 4-star experience down to 3 when I was expecting 5-stars due to being part of Yelp's Top 100. I cannot envision ever returning. read more

We got a private room (seats 10) and it felt so special! The rolls (volcano and tempura) were really good! Appetizers: edamame and chicken karaage and shrimp tempura tasted good too. Hamachi crudo was the best. Got the yellowtail sashimi and it was just ok so I would get the rolls instead. Service was fast and great. Cute ambience and plano downtown is lively over the weekends! Check it out! read more

Incredible place. I have a weird allergy and they were super on top of it. Ryan was a great server and I enjoyed every single thing I tried. I also love that some of their cocktail program is low ABV. Really impressed by this place and can't wait to come back. read more

While the food and quality was great, the service unfortunately did not deliver. We ordered the omakase set and waited nearly 20-30 minutes for each dish to be served. Unsure of why the wait time was so long when there were barely any other customers dining. read more
EBESU Robata & Sushi is an upscale Japanese restaurant tucked away in the historic section of Plano. The ambiance is cozy & romantic, with limited seating - a reservation is highly recommended (see photos). They also had beautiful pottery, and as you might expect - the service was impeccable. I ordered the EBESU Signature Course which I shared with my wife who also ordered a few other things. They had a House Cold Brewed Macha Genmaicha which she really enjoyed along with the Home Made Gyoza and Baby Back Pork Ribs - all of which excellent in different ways (the Gyoza was some of the best I have tried). We started our Signature Course with the Hamachi Crudo - each bite had a little kick to it that was a really nice combination I had the Sashimi plate to myself (the wife is not a fan) - very high quality. We shared the Robata plate - grilled fish, chicken & corn on skewers. We made very short work of them. Then came the A5 Wagyu on Hot Rock- it was fun to roast the thinly sliced wagyu with the garlic chips and the sauces - it was fantastic (I am running out if superlatives here). I ended with the ground blue fin tuna on rice - it was just the thing to finish things off. My wife had the poached pear for dessert - it looked like it came out of a cook book. She was a big fan. EBESU Robata & Sushi is a must visit if you like Japanese food. read more
EBESU Robata & Sushi is a true gem. Every dish that came out was a work of art, crafted with such attention to detail it's clear the chefs don't leave anything to chance. The ambience is warm and elevated, striking the perfect balance between modern and inviting. Our server Emily made the entire experience even better. She was attentive, kind, and so knowledgeable. We'll definitely be back! read more
