What People Are Saying About Bozu

The Scene – The facade of dark wood beams hints at monastic simplicity, but this raw fish and sake joint is a bit more jumbled inside. Brick walls, mod white plastic tables and a curtain of strung Japanese figurines ring the perimeter, while a large three-sided bar sits right in the middle. The crowd can be sparse, but the staff is energetic and knowledgeable. – – The Food – Clean, strong flavors prevail in the largely seafood-based tapas, among them a tuna tartare with a light mustard sorbet, and a vibrant ceviche of scallops and salmon over fanned avocado. Layered…

Good food

by sy38

all foods are very good and creative yet stay with original Japanese food. Service is very good and price is reasonable. I can relax there and have a good time with my friends and boyfriend. I definitely go back there!

Service Fantastic. Food experimental at best.

by tokeloke

Cute place.

2 worst mojitos, EVER. Indescribable.

Edamame tasted like pop corn. Was perhaps buttered. The second bowl for throwing away the peels still had old food bits in it. Bad sign.

Extremely sweet service. Couldn't make ourselves tell them the food absolutely sucked. Which is maybe why we got:

"Japanese curry" which was essentially bland, chewy stew splashed on some rice.

Bozu style sushi, which means it had none of the essentials (ginger - soy sauce was pre-wasabified, which I actually kinda liked). Personally sort-of liked the sushi, but we found the use of long grain rice a bit, uhm, surprising. Most puffy rolls we've ever experienced. At least it was fresh.

Bozu Salad tasted exactly like Armani Eau De Toilette smelled in the 80's. Somewhat disturbing.

Was one of these places where you just can't wait to get out. It was just all wrong - but I completely disagree that the service was bad.. I felt a bit bad for the service staff in fact, that is, until I saw the check.

  • Pros: Cute place, sweet service
  • Cons: Worst drinks, semi-crappy food
