“ This was my first time here and I was very happy! I loved the uni toro scallop appetizer, the uni was gigantic!!! The sushi Feast was good but they give too much rice so I'm gonna order sashimi feast from now on. Great value, fresh sushi, and staff was great ”
“ This place is great! The server named Henry was very friendly and attentive. We had the spicy miso ramen and the tochucha ramen both with egg noodles. They were absolutely delicious. I would definitely come back here to try different things on the menu. ”
“ Healthiest choice for a rather quick bite to eat. Was able to get a seat rather quick. Quite busy for a Sunday. Food was amazing as usual. Ordered the sushi feast. ”
“ The food is absolutely incredible as well as the atmosphere but please be prepared to give a HEFTY tip to avoid an attitude from the servers. I cannot say the same for all the service staff, but the one I had today had a particularly bad attitude when she realized that I couldn't tip any higher than what I offered, even going as far to question me about it. I would have absolutely given a much greater tip if it was in my budget, but unfortunately it was not. Please consider eating there, the food is top notch, but keep the tipping in mind! ”
“ Nippon Cha has always been reliable when I'm craving both sushi and a warm bowl of noodles. The space is tight, but they make it work (even with an ice cream freezer in the dining area). We were seated quickly on a Friday night and the waitress was super attentive. I love my morning matcha so I tried the matcha yuzu cocktail (5/5) and it was tasty! The sushi & sashimi dinner combo (4/5) had a fresh selection of salmon, tuna, yellowtail, and white tuna. We ordered the tochucha udon (5/5) and tonkatsu + set (4/5) and they hit the spot. I visit Nippon Cha once in a while since I love the matcha theme and the food is good, but it can be a bit pricier than other similar places. ”
