To eat: 1. Truffle hamachi (6 pcs) - amazing! Absolutely getting it next time. 2. A5 Wagyu nigiri (1 pc, $15) - it was okay. Not my fave Wagyu I've had. This one was more raw. I liked with it's seared a bit 3. Maguro sashimi (3 pcs) - very thick juicy pieces. very much enjoyed these. Delicious tuna! Not fatty Service was phenomenal! My server was extremely kind and helpful. I should have gotten his name. He said it was his third day. Couldn't tell. 100% will ask for him next time. Hostess was also very very kind and welcoming.

Even with its quirks it's still the best sushi spot in town, and I worked at another Napa sushi restaurant for the better part of 7 years. It feels like one of the only restaurants in Napa that legitimately cares about catering to locals. The prices are fair. Good sake selection. The quality of the sushi is fantastic and they cycle in unique fish I've never had anywhere else. Tip to the owners: hire more servers!! Also it would be appreciated for them to get their face out of the mobile POS and really listen to the customer when they're taking our order.

The maki rolls came with 6 rolls, with the sushi being 1 pc each. The spicy tuna roll was very affordable with fresh high quality fish. I like how the sushi was fairly simple, which amplified the deep flavor of the fish. I also ordered one fatty tuna sashimi, which was melt in your mouth! Miso soup, which had homemade tofu is rich, but the tofu was average. Gyoza was average, more on the dryer side. The salmon taretare was very good, coming with different sauces. I tasted a bit of my coworker's unagi bowl, which came with seaweed to create a roll. I thought the unagi was grilled well, but the marinade on top was too sweet. The sweetness of the sauce overpowered the natural flavor of the eel. A highlight was their dessert lime sago. It was not too sweet and came with ice cream. There were pop rocks sprinkled in that gave a unique texture.

Morimoto Napa: A deeply disappointing dining experience…read more My wife and I recently returned to Napa, one of our favorite places, and decided to try Morimoto while celebrating 40 years since we first met. We ordered the $180-per-person omakase and added the $95 A5 Wagyu supplement for each of us. With drinks, tax, and tip, our final bill was over $800. We were perfectly comfortable spending that kind of money for a special occasion, but unfortunately, the experience was a tremendous disappointment. And to be clear, this isn't about the money. Even if the entire meal had cost $50, I would have been disappointed. The food simply wasn't good. The omakase nigiri was particularly bad. The rice was atrocious, and the preparation of the fish was hardly better. Sushi rice is fundamental to good nigiri, and getting that wrong undermines the entire dish. Several of the other courses were excessively salty, with little of the balance or refinement we expected. The presentation was also surprisingly uninspired. My wife commented on how ordinary everything looked, especially for an omakase experience where you would expect some thought and craftsmanship in how each course is presented. Then there was the A5 Wagyu. Before ordering, I asked our waitress about it, and she described it as wonderfully buttery. We've had excellent Wagyu in Japan, so we had a reasonable idea of what to expect. Unfortunately, this wasn't remotely close. The appearance was unappealing, the flavor disappointing, and the texture lacked the richness and tenderness we were looking forward to. At $95 for a small portion, it was a particularly poor addition to an already underwhelming meal. My wife is Japanese, and we travel to Japan regularly, so we're familiar with excellent sushi and Wagyu. But I wasn't expecting Morimoto to replicate a traditional Japanese restaurant. I knew it was fusion, and I have no problem with that. Good cooking is good cooking, regardless of the style. What I expected was quality, proper technique, balanced flavors, and some genuine attention to detail. Unfortunately, we found very little of that here. The service didn't help matters. When our waitress asked how we enjoyed the nigiri, I told her directly that it was terrible and explained why, particularly the rice. I made clear that I wasn't blaming her personally. She seemed genuinely surprised by the criticism, but there was no apology, no meaningful acknowledgment, and no attempt during that conversation to address our dissatisfaction. She was pleasant enough otherwise, but there's a difference between being superficially pleasant and actually caring about a guest's experience. What bothers me most is the disconnect between Morimoto's reputation and what actually arrived at our table. I've had far better food at small, unpretentious restaurants where the people preparing it clearly care about what they're doing. A celebrity chef's name and an impressive bill don't substitute for craftsmanship. We went there to celebrate something meaningful, and instead we spent the evening wondering how a restaurant with this reputation could get so many basic things wrong. Perhaps others have had better experiences, but ours was genuinely awful. I wouldn't return, and I certainly wouldn't recommend the omakase. Not because it was expensive, but because the food wasn't good. The price just made the disappointment that much worse.

I've been wanting to try this kaiseki restaurant in Napa for the longest time, and I finally…read moremanaged to get a reservation. It absolutely lived up to the reputation! From the moment we walked in, the service was truly first-class. Every detail was thoughtful and beautifully executed. They even surprised us with a glass of Cabernet Franc to pair with the A5 Wagyu. The pairing was fantastic--the Wagyu was incredibly tender, literally melting in my mouth, yet surprisingly not greasy or heavy at all. They also paired a sweet dessert wine with the dessert, which was such a nice touch. I'm honestly not a dessert person at all, but their Jasmine Pear completely won me over. I absolutely loved it! Every single course was delicious, beautifully presented, and thoughtfully balanced. The whole experience felt very refined without being stuffy or overly formal. It's the kind of restaurant where you can appreciate not only the food, but also the attention to detail, hospitality, and the entire dining experience. Definitely one of those Napa experiences that I'm glad I finally got to try. I would happily come back again!

Outside of the service and the wine list kenzo is an absolute skip. How they received a Michelin…read morestar is beyond me. I consider myself a pretty well traveled individual and have dined at several Michelin stared restaurants and kenzo absolutely missed the mark. The ambience of the restaurant can only be described as sterile. The food was lacking flavor at every turn EXCEPT for the waygu. I will give credit where credit is due and admit the waygu was spectacular. But when 1 course in a 9 course omakase is the stand out - yikes. Otherwise several bites of fish were dry and overcooked. Almost all of the bites lacked flavor and if there was flavor is was exactly identical to the previous dish - the profile was not diverse. Walking away $1,200 in the hole for two people and a genuinely disappointing experience was so devastating.
