    Simply incredible. We hired Josh for a dinner party with 4 couples and he did not disappoint. It was by far the best sushi I've ever had, and he created a great variety of dishes - nigiri, rolls, salads, bowls, etc. We had a blast and he was delightful and explained everything to us about the dishes and preparation. It's expensive but we'll worth every penny. Highly recommended for anyone who loves sushi!

    Josh Brown and his team took my 50th birthday celebration to the next level. Josh was very professional, accommodating, reasonable, and easy-going from the moment we reached out to him. The fish that he brought to the event was top notch and the presentation was exquisite. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the wonderful experience. Thank you so much for taking care of us. We would highly recommend Josh and his team for any and all events and hope to use them again in the future!

    We have never hired a private chef before but it was my wife's 30th bday so I wanted to do something extra special. I was not sure what to expect going into it but what we got was one of the single best dining experiences we have ever had. Josh was awesome, he drove through a snowstorm and arrived early. He was prompt when going back and forth on the menu. He worked incredibly hard the entire time and we could tell he was proud of what he delivered. We cannot wait to find a reason to hire Josh again!

    Chef Josh hard at work!!! The sushi never stopped coming, had to tell him to stop we were so full!

    Pretty good ramen shop. I usually don't like ramen because of how heavy and creamy it can be, but…read morethe Amber ramen here was perfect for me. Toasty noodles, flavorful soup, and portioned just right. The poke bowl was just OK, and they forgot to put eggs in two out of three of our bowls. However, they were quick to remedy when asked so appreciated that. Service is just alright too. It took a minute for the staff to acknowledge and seat our group, and they didn't check on our table very much. Overall, I recommend this spot!

The restaurant was not busy when we walked in (about 2-3 tables) but it got busier afterwards. Due to the restaurant not being super busy, they only had one employee waiting on us and the initial wait for our food was about 15-20 minutes. Later on, it appeared more staff came in and additional ordered items appeared faster. Items ordered: Green tea- great nutty flavor and perfect for fellow green tea lovers! Free refills Spicy cucumber - they used Persian cucumbers and this was a small dish. Taste was fine but I prefer the Northern Chinese style spicy cucumber over this one (if you compare these two dishes) Garnet Ramen - Good dish and delicious broth! Hubby enjoyed this. Pearl Ramen - I really enjoyed the clear broth and subtle but good mix of flavors. I preferred these noodles over the Garnet as these are thinner. Quartz Ramen - The creamy broth was my second favorite and the amount of chicken, fried onions, and broccolini were a nice touch. Kid's chicken karaage x2 - kids enjoyed this a lot Kids' Ramen- this came with just noodles, corn, and broth (your selection). Kiddo enjoyed the Quartz broth, so we selected Quartz. Even though tea had free refills, I had to ask our waiter for a refill. I know he was busy, so it wasn't a big deal.

The dining room is elegant and intimate without feeling stuffy, creating the perfect balance of fine dining and relaxed Tahoe hospitality. We enjoyed the four-course prix fixe menu with the wine pairing, and every course was excellent. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, the flavors were thoughtful and unique, and each dish felt like something special without being overdone. The wine pairings were fantastic and added to the experience throughout the meal. A special thank you to owners and chefs John and Nyna Weatherson. Their passion for what they do comes through in every aspect of the restaurant. Just as impressive as the food was the service--warm, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely focused on making guests feel cared for. The entire team helped make our anniversary memorable, and we left already talking about our next visit. If you're looking for a special dinner in Truckee, Trokay is the real deal. Outstanding food, exceptional hospitality, a beautiful atmosphere, and an experience that's worth every bit of the drive, time, and anticipation. Highly recommend. We'll definitely be back.

It was very clean our waitress did not speak English well but she was so nice she went and got someone else to answer our questions fast that did. They were very attentive and polite I was very surprised at how good the food was and how fresh it was there was no over use of Sauce or rice we could taste every ingredient in each piece which I have to be honest was amazing best Sushi place hands down I have ever went to not just in Reno but in my life. So glad we found this spot. They also Nigri and it looked amazing we tried it did not take pictures but it was so good we loved it had a great lunch you have to check this place out I promise.

    For starters, I've never been to this place, and my first impression wasn't great. I went with a…read moregroup of eight, and a friend told me the sushi rolls were pretty good. The menu didn't feel very varied--it was mostly the same types of rolls (crab mostly) with different sauces. That may just be personal preference, since I tend to like shrimp rolls (either cooked or uncooked). When we arrived, we were seated in the far right corner. There were other tables nearby, but because we were a large group, it took a while for anyone to take our drink orders. We even had two separate servers come by to ask for drinks. Once we ordered sushi, that's where things really went downhill. We were split across the tables (four people per table), and although we placed our orders at the same time, half of our group didn't receive their sushi until about 30 minutes after the other part of us. It felt like the order process wasn't managed well. Customer service was also inconsistent. We had to keep asking for items we never received, like refills, and we didn't get straws. Even though the restaurant was busy, I've been to other sushi places on busy nights and never experienced service this slow. The only thing I truly liked was the appetizers. The beef teriyaki was the best thing I had--really tasty. I'd recommend that, but only if you have a lot of time to spare, because the wait for food and follow-ups was a struggle. When we tried to order dessert, it took so long for someone to come back that a few people ended up giving up and not getting dessert at all. Overall, customer service took far too long, and the sushi was just OK--not especially flavorful or memorable for me. The rolls tasted pretty similar, and I don't think I'll be returning.

    I called ahead to make reservations for a large party, so I was surprised when we arrived and were…read moretold it would still be about a one-hour wait. They likely never put my name down for the reservation. We even offered to split our group into multiple tables since there were several empty tables available throughout the restaurant. Instead of trying to accommodate us, the staff continued taking phone orders and seating other families at those empty tables while my family was left standing there, feeling completely ignored. It was frustrating and disappointing to see available seating go to other guests while no effort was made to communicate with us or find a solution. A little acknowledgment and customer service would have gone a long way. They didn't even apologize. In the beginning I thought it was a language barrier but when I politely addressed my concerns they were extremely rude and had no desire to find a solution. Most of our party left due to the rude service. Only 6 of us stayed behind to eat. We thought the food was good. We paid for the bill in cash, only for the server to chase us outside and accuse us of shorting the cash. Either someone stole it or dropped it because we paid the full price plus tip. Since we didn't have any proof, we had no choice but to pay twice. Will never eat here or recommend again.

We shared the spicy tuna long roll, also good, and my fiancé got the 9 piece appetizer sashimi which was very a very generous portion: the thickest sashimi pieces we've ever seen! Their rice could have been stickier. It was kinda falling apart on the platter even before we dug in. They do offer lunch specials and AYCE lunch (not sure of the price) and AYCE dinner ($48/adult) that not everyone at the table needs to participate in. Will be back when we have a big group so we can have variety. Our service was good. 3% credit card transaction fee.

The spam I like fried with a bit more sauce, but service over the top in every way We're here in the heat of August but their air conditioning is great, they have a wonderful arcade section for kids and a cozy bar for the adults!

We ordered the Godfather's Poke Bowl along with both the regular and spicy Spam musubi. I liked the spicy musubi best, while my daughter preferred the regular, so it was nice being able to try both versions. We ordered the poke bowl spicy, but it really wasn't very spicy, so don't be afraid of ordering it that way if you only like a little heat. The poke bowl was good, although I do wish it had been a little bigger and included more fish. We ate outside on the patio, which was really nice, and it was fun being able to watch everyone bowling inside. The service was fast, and our food came out quickly. Bowl Incline had a fun, casual atmosphere and was an enjoyable place to stop for something to eat.
