The food was amazing when I went there and the service was amazing! And the staff was so kind and they did not take long to get my food out! The setting was amazing and the light set a great mood! Would come again! read more

I've gotten asked why I haven't done reviews in a while. As you know, life gets in the way. Plus, I was on a months long streak of terrible food, and I figured why give bad reviews anymore. It's not very nice. But then today I guess the mean side awakens. Because I am fed up with paying a lot and getting inedible food! The ramen looked great when it came out, but was so salty it was inedible. The noodles too mushy. The pork was either all fat or too tough to eat. The General Tso's chicken was very tough and the goopy sauce had the worst flavor I've ever tasted in an Asian dish. None of us could eat it. Plus it was expensive. Really I should have complained but we all just wanted to get out of there and woke up the next morning with painful puffy eyes from all the extra salt in that ramen! To end on a high note, I heard the Japanese beer was good. read more

First time here, and definitely not the last! I am so glad another restaurant took over this space. We came here with group of 9 (made a reservation ahead of time). Beautiful decor inside, and fantastic service. The menu is mouthwatering. I had the most delicious Ramen. Don't remember what everyone else had, but everyone enjoyed their meals. read more

Fingers crossed they last here as it was an AMAZING meal. We were able to get seats at the bar and were greeted right away by Jenny. Really decent draft selection with Asahi and Sapporo draft both available. I intended to just try the ramen, but we stuck up conversations with others at the bar and started to order with my eyes. They have a great specials board of fresh choices to go with the menu. Will be back for sure! read more

After driving by this place often and watching them prep for opening, I was excited to finally give it a try. The food was good and service was very fast. I see that it will be very popular as more people hear about it. They have a cool fun theme going with the decorations as it fully puts you in the mood for some ramen. I loved the shrimp shumai that comes lollipop style, the gyoza, and the shrimp tempura roll was really good. The main event was the Ramen and the waitress was kind enough to help me decide what kind I might like to order and I made the right choice. It was delicious. I definitely recommend this place if you're in the area. read more

I really enjoyed the Sushi/Sashimi combo which i had last night, the Sashimi was some of the best i've had in Fairfield Cty. Service was great, but i was one of just five others there in the entire restaurant, which has become a sad trend for this location in recent years. Ambience was fine and lack of other patrons does not itself justify a poor Ambience rating. The one and only criticism i would raise would be the background music choice which i felt was out of sorts with the restaurant and the vibe they're trying to create. I just came back from Roppongi Hills in Tokyo last month and hope Roppongi survives! Overall, 素晴らしい食事 and よくやった. I'll be back! Well done read more

Roppongi - Japanese Near Me - Fairfield, Connecticut

We have been waiting for this place to open. We drove by Saturday and saw people dining so we immediately turned the car around and ran inside. We usually wait for the restaurant to get the kinks out before we dine but there were no kinks! We were greeted by multiple people, food came out quickly, and service was top notch! This is hands down the best ramen in the area. Sushi was so fresh and duck bao was chef's kiss. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and everyone is so friendly. We can't wait to go back and highly recommend! read more

Hands down the best Japanese restaurant we've been to recently! For them being so new, we were impressed that they seem to have no kinks to work out. Menu items that we were really impressed to see were the tuna wasabi dumplings and dragon balls, which my husband loved for a better fish to rice ratio. Everything was fresh and flavorful, and the server was kind and attentive. Beautiful and clean inside, and they even had a covered patio. We will absolutely be back! read more

Really good sushi, slightly nontraditional menu. Service was ok, though a little understaffed and slow but pleasantly surprised by fish quality and loved the food read more

Food is delicious and nicely presented. I would have preferred less "club like" music while dining. This was a Friday night excursion read more

Food was tasty. Presentation was great. Lively atmosphere. Service was good as well. Dragon ball sushi was very fun looking! read more

Roppongi - 7 Dragon Balls - Japanese Near Me - Fairfield, Connecticut

Saw the few rave reviews for this new place which has only been open for a few weeks and wanted to see if this could be our new go to for Japanese. We really liked the place, bright, interesting decorations, big rectangular bar which looked good for eating and drinking so we were hoping the food would be just as good. To be fair, it was only 2 of us so we didn't try too many things on the menu. First up was the tuna wasabi dumpling which were basically two small tuna wrapped mashed avocado mounds. This was served without any side of wasabi or ginger so we asked for that when we tasted it and could not sense any wasabi in the dumplings. Had to ask twice before the wasabi and ginger came. Tried the sushi dragon balls. It was pretty but looking closer at the 9 small dishes, two are just for wasabi and ginger so you are really getting 7 little balls of rice with a but of fish wrapped around them (1 may have just been avocado and no fish). For $21, that might have been okay for a light appetite but we kinda looked at each other and decided we'd probably have to go home and have a pack of instant noodles or something to top up the meal. Best thing we had was the sashimi platter. $36 for 15 pieces. Nicely presented and fair amount of sashimi. Shared one cocktail. With tax and tip our total came to $100. Not the most expensive meal we've ever had but considering we both wanted more food when we got home it was a bit pricey in my opinion. Maybe the rolls would have been more filling and better value but we didn't order any. Will give this place another shot at some point. Conveniently to our home, nice space. Not our new go to just yet but maybe we didn't order the right things. read more

Anyone who's familiar with my reviews knows one thing: I'm hyper-critical--especially when it comes to sushi. I've dined at some of the top spots in Manhattan, and I rarely hand out five-star ratings. That said, Sushi Roppingi in Fairfield, CT, has more than earned it. This place is, without question, the best sushi experience you'll find in Fairfield--and easily on par with some of the most respected sushi restaurants in NYC. We ordered the sushi boat, spicy tuna rolls, and a number of other specialty rolls, and every single bite was flawless. The fish was exceptionally fresh, expertly cut, and beautifully presented. The spicy tuna roll in particular had the perfect balance of heat, texture, and flavor--clearly crafted by someone who understands sushi at a high level. Surprisingly, one of the standouts of the night was the miso soup. It wasn't the typical afterthought you get at most places. This had depth--rich, savory, and complex in flavor. You could tell real care went into it. We also appreciated the Sapporo on tap--ice cold and perfectly poured, it complemented the meal without overpowering the delicate flavors of the sushi. The ambiance at Sushi Roppingi also deserves a shoutout. The music playing throughout the restaurant transported me back to early- to mid-2000s Miami--classic techno tracks that set a laid-back, upscale vibe without being too loud or intrusive. It's rare that a sushi restaurant gets the soundtrack right, but they nailed it. Service was attentive but never overbearing--friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. They let the food and atmosphere speak for themselves, and that's the mark of a confident, well-run restaurant. In short, Sushi Roppingi is the real deal. It's clear they take pride in every aspect of the experience--from the food to the drinks to the ambiance. Whether you're a Fairfield local or just passing through, make this your go-to sushi spot. This is not just great sushi "for Connecticut"--this is Manhattan-level sushi right in your backyard. read more

Fantastic food, great happy hour, and really nice staff. Definitely a hidden gem in Fairfield.

We had dinner last night at Roppongi, the restaurant that recently re-opened. We had gone there in the past and really liked it, but I have to say the food was generally not tasty at all and over-priced. We tried a number of different dishes and were not happy with the results. It could be that since they're new the kitchen is still getting it's act together but we will not return anytime soon read more

Love the variety of stuff on their menu and the way they present their food. I personally like their sushi dishes, better than most sushi restaurants within ten miles of Black Rock. Try the Tom Yam soup and be pleasantly surprised. read more

This was quite a pleasant surprise on our way up to Boston! Our family had ramen and sushi and both were quite tasty and fresh! We told our friends about it right away and we would DEF. come back next time! read more

I was so thrilled with the sushi on my first visit that I was back 3 days later because I couldn't stop thinking about it! I just found my new go-to sushi restaurant! Keep doing what you are doing!!! read more

Had takeout and was excited about the new restaurant. Unfortunately, the sushi was mid and the Ramen was super salty and tofu was very sweet. Overall not worth $50. Nor would I'd like to order again. Sorry, but didn't even feel full because it was offputting read more

Mixed experience here...I enjoyed the appetizers and the bento box but prefer a different style of sushi. The eel and yellowtail rolls were skimpy and not high quality fish. Spicy sushi makes me feel the fish lacks freshness...and The rolls are overly fancy/sauced and I won't be going back for sushi. read more

The ramen here was very good. The real standout, though, was the Peking duck bao absolutely amazing! The duck was tender and savory, with the perfect balance of flavors. Highly recommend for anyone looking for delicious Peking Duck Bao and ramen. read more

A great place for happy hour. Delicious scallion cake and roppongi chicken wings. Also $5.00 wine. "Jennie from the block " our bartender made you feel welcome . We also had amazing tuna dumplings! It was our first time and we will definitely come back. read more

Food is incredible!! We are huge hot appetizer fans and we tried everything as we have been twice now. A+ food. Drinks were great too, our server Michael was literally the nicest server we have ever had. We'll totally be back and will request him! read more

First time visiting. We sat at the bar and the bar tender was overwhelmed but the place was not that's busy. We did manage to get our apps. The plates were never cleared in front of us. We ordered sushi but after one hour we canceled the order and left. Went won't be back read more

Throughout my life i was lead to believe that a restaurant had a kitchen that made the food this was not the case here. I ordered steamed mussels which when i got them had a lot of broken or unopened shells. Not good. Told the waitress and her answer was that the was they came in a bag. The next thing a ordered and received was pork belly which seam to be steamed , not the way it should be prepared. I received my dessert which was supposed to be Japanese ice cream in a dough which came frozen which looked it was pur chased at costco or trader Joes and was still frozen with 3 mandarin orange slices out of a can with a maraschino cherry on top. The service as quick and friendly which led me to believe that they didn't prepare anything in the kitchen defiantly would not return! Service good food not the same! read more

Food service and ambiance is excellent! 10/10 would visit again. The crab ragoons and any happy hour special is too notch

Best Ramen in Fairfield County. I said what I said! The broth, the noodles, the perfectly tender pork... chefs kiss! This has been my go-to ramen spot, especially for cold days. I've dined in and also got takeout and the food was still incredible. Sushi is incredible too! Don't hesitate to check it out. read more

We're lucky to have such a fantastic restaurant just around the corner from our place. Our first visit was with friends, and we enjoyed a cozy booth, but tonight we decided to sit at the bar since it was just the two of us. The atmosphere was lively, with the outdoor patio filling up as well, but the energy was still warm and welcoming. The food and service were, once again, excellent. The staff are always friendly and attentive, making each visit feel special. read more

Best sushi around - will certainly come back, even with service being somewhat slow...it is worth it

The food was fabulous as was the wait staff. Going back with friends tonight. The Sake selections were fabulous too.

Come try this place! The fish is outstanding. Quite a varied menu. The eel is the best I've had in ages. We will be back.

Nice new spot, service was good while still working the kinks out. Food was great, sushi was fresh and flavorful. Nice modern Asian deco.

Went there for the first time last night. They've been open only four weeks. Food was excellent, as was the service and staff. Already have plans to go back again. read more

This is a new restaurant to Black Rock, and we can't wait to go back! Upon entering we were greeted and sat right away. Decor and theming is very cohesive. Drinks and food are reasonably priced, and it was great quality and quantity. They are advertised as a sushi bar, but we had their entree meals. We had no complaints about our experience, we just wish the restaurant itself was advertised as new and open. Definitely a must try! read more
