    Looks good, unfortunately we weren't able to try it, they had some alarm going off that they couldn't turn off. But hey, I was able to take updated photos of the menu so you can see what you wanna order.

    This is a restaurant located down the street from me. It's been there for years. But, I just recently dined there at the request of a friend. Oh my goodness, I've been missing out! The food was absolutely delicious the first time I went. I got an Hibachi bento box and liked it so much I had my husband go with me. We ordered several things off the menu and liked all our selections. Restaurant name is fitting for one of my favorite things, the Miso soup. I am safe to say, it's the best in town!

    Fresh, delicious rainbow roll and miso soup. Perfect for a quick lunch. Our servers were lovely, attentive and quick. Ambiance is typical of a small, shopping mall restaurant. It was quiet and clean. Nothing fancy.

    The bento box: Fried rice, vegetable Tempura, California roll, shrimp Teriyaki

    I'm not sure why we don't frequent here more often. Went on Friday night and it was packed. (they do a brisk takeout business so that is an option if the dine in is full). We ordered the Fire Dragon roll to share as appetizer. Our server informed us they were a bit backed up on those, but we were okay with waiting. It turned out to be a not very long wait and she put our dinner orders in when the roll was almost out so things flowed smoothly for the dinner. Fire Dragon roll was really good, such a nice crunch and the avocados were perfect with the Salmon etc. I ordered a Shrimp Teriyaki Bento box with Vegetable Tempura, Fried rice and California roll. Everything was so good and freshly cooked when it arrived at the table. Vegetables Tempura were fresh from the fryer hot and so tasty! I could probably make a meal of just those. The Shrimp Teriyaki was fresh and delicious also. The Bento Box is a lot and I couldn't finish but fortunately there were others in the party who helped me out. Service was great and they were busy! Again, why have we waited so long? Great spot!

    Egg nigiri and shrimp tempura roll

    I tried a few different kinds of sushi here and wasn't too impressed overall. I ordered a shrimp tempura roll, an asparagus roll, and egg nigiri. The egg looked way overpriced at first ($3.25!) but when it arrived, it turned out to be 2 pieces...that's not so bad. The egg itself was pretty good - sweet as it's supposed to be. The rice underneath, though, was really bland. It had a tiny hint of plain vinegar, but no sweetness at all. Of course, the same rice was used for the rolls too, so the complaint carries over. The shrimp tempura and asparagus tempura were actually both pretty tasty and crispy. The asparagus roll had too much spicy mayo on top, but the mayo did help offset the blandness of the rice. The servers were friendly, accurate, and quick. I like the laid back environment and the fact that there's ample free parking outside. It's too bad, if they had properly seasoned sushi rice, they probably would've gotten a solid 4 stars from me.

    Wasn't planning to eat here but saw a steady flow of customers coming out of this place. I'm glad I did. I ordered the tempura shrimp and tornado roll. The shrimp was good but the roll was outstanding. It was flavorful and had the right amount of shrimp and crab. And they were very busy but my order was ready in about 10 minutes. The service was great and they offered to get me a drink while I waited. This will be my new go-to sushi place when I'm in the area visiting.

    This is our go to Japanese restaurant located close to home... They are very consistent with their food And always seem to be pretty packed. It seems like they do a lot of takeout orders because people constantly are coming in to grab food. We love the bento boxes and the specialty sushi rolls.

    Vegetable and shrimp tempura

    Miso Japanese Restaurant in Franklin is a casual, no-frills sushi & Japanese food restaurant. It is located in a shopping center with plenty of parking and seems to be a neighborhood favorite. My friend and I met here for dinner on a weeknight and it was packed. Their menu is actually not just limited to sushi and Japanese. I noticed that they have Thai and even Vietnamese pho. Their prices are all really reasonable. We decided to share two rolls and the vegetable and shrimp tempura. The tempura ($5.95) was pretty good and was brought out to our table quickly. The fire dragon roll ($8.50) was definitely our indulgent pick as it was salmon, avocado & cream cheese and the whole roll is deep fried and covered in sauce. This roll was a bit too rich for me with all of those fatty foods all in one roll. The white snake roll ($13) was the standout of the meal to me. It is one of the newer additions to their specialty roll menu. The inside is spicy crab & shrimp tempura and the outside had white tuna. It was drizzled in a wasabi sauce with lime and sriracha. Although it sounds like it would be really spicy it only had a small kick to it. I would definitely order this one again. I think Miso is a good restaurant and I'd give them another shot. I think that it matters what you order here since I enjoyed the tempura and the white snake roll but I didn't care for the fire dragon. The service was a bit spotty towards the end but otherwise pretty good as well.

    The place is small, so I recommend take- out, but it is the best sushi in Franklin! I haven't gotten one roll that I'm not a fan of.

    Solid spot. Not a ton of basic salmon dishes, but for decent sushi I recommend it. Ambiance isn't great.

I love when restaurants notice these details on the reservation. We were seated at our corner booth in a quiet area. The atmosphere is stunning. I was delighted to see that even the menus had a "Happy 20th anniversary, lovebirds" message printed on them. So thoughtful! Our lovely waitress recommended that we order about 5 dishes between us which was super helpful. She gave us some recommendations and guided us through the menu. Everything we tried was delicious but the bao buns and the lamb were probably my favorites of the night. Thank you so much for a lovely and unforgettable evening.

The restaurant is on the smaller side with a mix of table seating and counter seats overlooking the kitchen. I'd definitely recommend making a reservation because it filled up quickly. Even though the restaurant was packed, the noise level was perfect--we could still have a conversation without shouting. The bar service for drinks was a little slow, but the staff kept us updated throughout and were incredibly friendly. Everyone was hustling--they handled check-ins, took orders, ran food, and kept everything moving despite how busy they were. The food completely exceeded my expectations. The ahi toast and seared yellowtail were absolute must-orders. Both had incredible flavor, and the fish practically melted in your mouth. The cucumber salad was fresh, flavorful, and a great appetizer while we waited for our drinks. The dumplings took quite a while to come out (they actually arrived after our hot pot), and while they were tasty, they weren't nearly as memorable as everything else we ordered. The shabu shabu was outstanding. We chose the miso broth with the NY strip, and the portion was huge! There was more than enough food for the three of us to happily share, and everything was fresh and delicious. Our cocktails were excellent and well worth the wait. Overall, Kosho delivered a fantastic dining experience with amazing food, friendly service, and a fun atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

I had no idea this place existed so close to the Publix I visit weekly. Our server is very friendly and helpful; he recommended several dishes to me during my first visit.

The crunchy garlic on both nigiri is definitely a plus for me. You can't go wrong with spicy tuna rice; I haven't had a bad one anywhere. I can certainly use more serrano on it for the extra kick. We've had a few other items, and everything was delicious. Overall, great food and service; I highly recommend others come try it out.
