Musashi - So delicious. This is after I already started eating. Musashi's choice, added garlic shrimp and upgraded to fried rice. - Japanese Near Me - Tracy, California

I'm so glad that they are under new ownership. I have always liked the food but the previous ownership made it real uncomfortable how they treated me as a customer. Plus they really ran that place into the ground. The new ownership has slowly been cleaning things up and getting it back to a quality restaurant. read more

Excellent service. Very good food. Nice spot to come, on a night out in Tracy. Steak and shrimp juicy. read more

We went here for the first time yesterday. Honestly we went there because they had a coupon for a free kids meal with 2 adult entrees. We walked in and it was pretty empty, save for a group of 6 people, which did worry me a little, but again it was a Tuesday night, and the place looked very clean. The bartender, who come to find out was the owner Manuel's wife, was making some good looking drinks for the other group. She asked us to have a seat while they set up a table for us. We were seated after a brief wait (~5 mins). A server asked us if we wanted drinks or appetizers and we ordered a bottle of unfiltered sake and a California roll. They came quickly. The California roll was huge (8 pieces I think) and tasted great. A good start. The server then took our order and we waited for a bit for our chef to come. In the meantime we were brought salad and onion soup, both of which were excellent. We were treated to Carlos. He was definitely new to the job (he mentioned he had only been there since Manuel took over ownership, about 3 months or so), and was still learning all the necessary skills. However, I think he did a great job; he joked with us a bit, my kids were awed by his fried rice beating heart and flaming onion volcano, as well as him attempting to toss a few pieces of shrimp in to their mouths. Even more importantly, all the food (between the 4 of us we had chicken, steak, shrimp, scallops, and swordfish) he cooked for us was done perfectly and tasted great. We all had the fried rice, and while a bit pricey, I would get it again. Manuel was cooking for the other group, and he also chatted with us to let us know that he was the owner and if we needed anything, he would take care of it. Everyone there was friendly and welcoming which was really nice. We will definitely be back. read more

My kids took me last night to celebrate my birthday. Excellent service and delicious food. We ordered the Lion King roll, the Dragon roll, the Tuna roll & and Crunchy roll. They were so good! Plus we had our Splash N'Meadow ( steak & shrimp). With a michelada drink. Yummy. Totally recommend this place. Good atmosphere & chef & staff are super friendly. read more

Great Venue! You want entertainment, get over here! Carlos was our Teppanyaki and Hibachi Chef. I ordered Musashi Chef Choice with all the seasonings and fried rice with sesame, yum! read more

Not a good place anymore, I had filet ninon ( real tuff) the scallops were the size of a quarter and just as thin they are sopositly sea scallops. Also be careful with the bill the gratuity is already added on. Sorry to say we don't be back, not impressed with the food or the price. read more

All I can say is that you can't compare it to Benihana's from Cupertino. This was okay... for being in Tracy. We came to visit family and wanted to try something different and we gave this place a shot. The place is dark and felt run down, the shopping plaza is dead. We had a reservation and were the first customers for dinner. Got seated got out drinks and we waited...and waited.... Finally, it was show time. Our cook was ok tried to entertain but wasn't good at all. But it's ok, it's about the food... We all ordered pretty much the same to be safe I guess and ordered chicken, shrimp and fried rice. The rice was good not salty a plus for me, the rest was meh lacked flavor. Would I come back? No, at this time, and I did hear it's under new ownership so maybe it needs feedback and time. We'll see what the locals have to say in the future. 3 stars for trying. read more

The food was delicious. The price was not bad. The hibachi is the best because it comes with not only the entrée but sides and salad. The drinks were also very good. I will definitely return. read more

Great service! Friendly workers from the moment we walked in. The food was great too ... great variety menu and the price was decent. One less star because we did have to wait for the cook but definitely a great experience. We'll be coming here again. So glad this hibachi spot is in Tracy. With three kids no need to travel far for a hibachi experience.... Bonus... it's not crazy packed like Benihana. read more

We had a reservation and we're welcomed by the front promptly! Great show during our meal experience! Highly recommended for groups and date nights! read more

Musashi - Cocktail - Japanese Near Me - Tracy, California

This place is a joke, brought my elderly parents on a random Friday night. Walked in and both the lady and young man behind the counter ignored us (1st red flag) I walked up to them and asked if there was someone to assist at the front. Mind you, there was a large party waiting to be seated. Lady said she would be with us shortly. She sat the large group, then came back and sat my parents n I at a hibachi that was filthy (2nd red flag ) .. I immediately asked for another table.. they took us to the back table which was a little cleaner. We ordered one beer n a soda. The cook came out to start the large party and then no one.. I mean NO ONE else was coming out after to cook.. they had one chef only to my surprise. I asked to pay for our drinks as we had it. As I'm walking my parents out I stop to pay and the lady tells me that the big party had an RSVP (what's that gotta do with me) I told her the website didn't say we needed that, and she could have told us from the jump rather than sitting us down to wait what would have been over 1.5 hours to eat. Hate this place n this experience, I see why there are soo little stars As a business great customer service will always bring the money NEVER AGAIN read more

Musashi - Filthy table.. they really tried it - Japanese Near Me - Tracy, California

Teppanyaki experience was great. Chef Carlo made it fun and one to remember. The food was good and they checked with you how you want your meal. It's a lot of food so come hungry! read more

My wife and I came here to get teppanyaki with some work friends after we were told the quality had improved. We were surprised that this is considered an improvement. While the teppanyaki was decent the sushi was what really killed us. 2 of our guests decided they wanted to eat sushi only and I myself ordered a roll as well. The sushi arrived after the teppanyaki was completed and most of us were done eating. When it did arrive it was sad. We had different colors of ginger, and the rolls tasted like nothing. I got the lion king roll and it was cold and tasted of old white rice. They said the sushi station wasn't prepared for orders which is odd considering they specifically asked us if we wanted a sushi menu before seating. All and all, the 2 who ordered sushi didn't eat it and had to go elsewhere for food read more

The sushi rolls are way better than any sushi spots I've been to in the past! Definitely my new favorite spot to come to! Very clean and the staff is very friendly. read more

Came here on a Friday evening. Received top tier food and services. They have a really beautiful waiting area / hang out spot and a wonderful dining area. The chef was great and put on an amazing show. I recommend bringing your family and friends! read more

Went there Saturday 2/19 with a party of 12 to celebrate 2 birthdays, with a 6PM reservation. We waited 37 min to get our drink order taken. Then we got our drinks 50 (yes five-zero) minutes after sitting down. We finished our salad and soup before any drink was brought to the table. We had 3 kids at the table who were as patient as they come while waiting for their Shirley Temples! Then we were told we couldn't have any sake bombs. Excuse me...why not? "Because" is all we were told. 30 seconds later, 2 tables over is dropin' bombs? WTF? Food was awesome as shared with other reviews. Turns out that's all that is good there. We were told that the chefs will be taking over the restaurant and the current slum-lord owner will be leaving. I will give ONE more shot in a couple of months to see if anything has changed. Otherwise, sayonara Musashi! read more

Our family came here for dinner last week after 8 years. Once we heard Manny, the chef, now owns it. The food was excellent. Huge portions of food. Manny & staff were all so welcoming & accommodating. The place is very clean (no more sticky carpet). We will definitely frequent this location again. read more

Favorite place in Tracy. Under new ownership as of this year and a must try! They've always accommodated birthdays, anniversaries, etc.

This is the hardest review I've ever had to write. I really want to like this place since I've been a loyal customer for about a dozen years and have never had a bad experience. But after my last visit, I really have some qualms with the service & food. My family and I visited Musashi's on Sunday, December 26th to celebrate my oldest kids birthday. I made reservations for 7:00 pm and we arrived about ten till. Walking in, we we're seated promptly at a table of our own and our server was quick to hand us menu's and take our drink orders. My family stuck with the steak and shrimp from the standard menu, but I went with the sushi / sashimi menu instead. I ordered two sushi rolls (dragon and spicy tuna), two orders of tobiko and a sashimi combo. I enjoyed watching the cooking show and my family dinning on their diner before my first rolls showed up. Hungrier than ever now, I couldn't wait to dive into my tobiko rolls. When I bit into my first roll, I had to quickly spit out what I had in my mouth into my napkin. The tobiko was fricken FROZEN. I've been to Japan twice and have consumed every type of sushi / sashimi imaginable, but this was a first. Maybe I'm being quick to judge. Maybe it's a fluke. I'll wait on the rest of my order and see how it goes. About the time my family we're asking for to-go containers, the rest of my order showed up. The two sushi rolls (dragon and spicy tuna) were good, but not great and the assorted sashimi. I wanted to take a picture, but again, I really want to like this place so I opted not to. My sashimi had dull, faded colors. Wait, I've seen this before. The color fades when the fish is washed before it's served. The water takes away the true colors leaving sashimi that looks old and lifeless behind. Washing the colors away also took the flavors with it. Good thing there were only five pieces for me to stomach. The sixth piece I couldn't eat. It was a shrimp that had been washed, but somehow they missed the boo boo vein. I really wish I could say better about this place, but I can't. Since my last visit (about a year ago), the place has gone down hill. And from what I've been reading from my fellow yelper's, I seriously doubt a recovery anytime soon. I highly recommend eating sushi / sashimi elsewhere. As for the diner show and the regular menu items at Musashi's. My family told me it was good. read more

They're literally open for 4 hours they take the last table at 8:30 and if your 2 mins late they won't seat you. Stupid

We wanted to find a place where we can eat Hibachi and we found a place near home. Manuel which was our cook did a great job with the food and his attention was one of a kind. He mentioned that he is the new owner but the location has been there for over 10+ years. The place was clean and the floors were clean also considering it was busy and a food restaurant. I definitely recommend this place and will be going back. Thank you, Manuel and team for the attention and service. We wish you luck on your new adventure. read more

We used to go to Musashi's 2-3 times a week for sushi and at least once a month for dinner 20 years ago, but when the original owners sold the restaurant to a new owner, things went straight to you know where. The owner was HORRIBLE in every aspect of the word HORRIBLE!!! We gave her many opportunities over a 1-2 year span, but unfortunately things progressively got worse. Food quality took a nosedive and service dropped off tremendously, so we decided not to go back. However, I got word the restaurant has been under new ownership for the past 2 years with positive comments. We decided to give it shot so we celebrated my daughters 40th birthday there on Saturday February the 1st and we weren't disappointed. The food quality, service, and atmosphere were great. This place was popping again. If you had the same bad experience I had with the previous owner, please go back and give the new ownership a chance. You won't be disappointed. read more

Let's start off by saying this is THE BEST HIBACHI SPOT IN TOWN! The new owner was formerly the worker. I'm sorry for the people who received 1 star service but let's be honest if you want sushi go to a sushi restaurant! MANNY (the owner/cook) is the best cook in the restaurant so ask for him! I'm not sure who's cooking for you guys.. but ask for manny! I've been going here for years and before he owned it the food was decent if he didn't cook it. The secret to the meal is the butter that he makes .. ask for extra butter .. on everything! read more
