Our Guestbook
“ Tried this place with my girlfriend this afternoon. Nice atmosphere and chris, the waiter was very welcoming and friendly. Scanning thru the menu wasn't overwhelming like most sushi restaurants. We ordered the edamame, grilled oysters and the spicy tuna pizza off the “small plates,” and a new york strip off the “entrees,” The edamame had come out first and had amazing flavor with a hint of sweetness. The grilled oysters were great! The spicy tuna pizza was absolutely out of this world! The way the rice crust had a nice crunch on the bottom and a nice soft and slightly chewy top was absolutely heavenly, the tuna was plentiful and the flavor was exquisite. The steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare, served with a nice glaze and mashed potatoes. Our overall experience was beyond a 5 out of 5. We are so happy we discovered this place. The price was very reasonable. We will be dining here regularly for sure. Thanks for the amazing dining experience! Side note, my girlfriend had forgotten her scarf at the booth and didn’t even realize it. Chris ran after us before we got to our car with the scarf! We were so grateful. ”
“ My wife and I showed up at that down time between lunch and dinner service. After entering the restaurant we were meet at the host stand by the owner and head chef although we didn't know it the time. We were seated, ordered drinks, an appetizer, and entree. All were excellent. Towards the end of our meal the owner visited our table to inquire about our meal. In speaking with him it was revealed before opening this restaurant he spent a 30 years in Japan as a sushi chef and that along with preparing my wife's sushi he also cooked my chicken teriyaki with rice. This place is absolutely amazing, exceptionally good food, well prepared bar and attentive staff, even the bathrooms were fancy and super clean! If you're ever in the area, come for the food and enjoy! ”
“ I had an amazing dining experience at Somo. The ambiance was warm and welcoming, and Chris our server was friendly and attentive. The food was exceptional — we had the edamame, the spicy tuna pizza, grilled oysters and the Japanese style steak, it was ALL full of flavor and beautifully presented. The service was quick, yet we never felt rushed. A perfect place for any occasion, and we will definitely be coming back! ”
“ Had an amazing and delicious experience at Somo! The staff and chef were extremely accommodating to our gluten allergy, and let us know that most of the sushi is already gluten free, except for the eel, eel sauce, and tempura. However, even the tempura could be made gluten free with potato starch & in a separate fryer & oil. We enjoyed the grilled oysters to start, and got four sushi rolls - the hole in one, paradise, Richmond st, and eastern tiger. All were amazing and unique!! The waitress was so attentive, and the chef kept coming to check on us - even brought us our meal and assured us it was gluten free and safe for us. We’ll definitely be coming back! ”
“ Amazing food and the bartender was so kind and attentive. The Kani salad was my appetizer and it came out so fast with next level deliciousness. Then the sushi to follow was great. Words cannot begin to express how fantastic this experience was. Also I got to speak with the owner Nino and he was so humble, friendly and kind. Needless to say this is my new favorite place. Try it. You won’t regret it. ”
“ Got here just before the dinner rush (in from out of town) atmosphere and service are both spectacular upon entry. Everything we ate was so phenomenal, the soft shell crab small plate, the wedge salad with carrot ginger dressing (insanely good), and the Momiji Volcano roll- which was recommended to us by our server. I have not had such fresh and tasty sushi in a long time. Every bite had us salivating and considering ordering more despite feeling satiated! Can’t recommend this enough. Thank you, Somo! ”
“ The food and service were incredible. I went with my husband and toddler, and they were very kind and attentive. We had super fresh and delicious sushi! I also recommend the Japanese dumplings, which are delicious. The steak and chicken are highly recommended as main courses. Excellent food. Our first visit was December 31, 2024. ; second visit was May 17, 2025. ”
“ This was our first time at Somo, we will definitely be returning. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. My godson has a gluten allergy and they checked everything for us and made it delicious. He said it was the best eel he had ever had, it was soft. The sushi chef let him watch the preparation of the rolls and described everything he was doing. Everything was amazing! I also loved mine. ”
