Was Anonym at Sozai a mag?
I recently went with some friends to try the chiso omakase experience at this restaurant and it was absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend it, as the food was immaculate in terms of quality, taste, presentation, and variety. I tried the Washington uni, which was to die for, as well as the nitriri, which tasted incredibly fresh and may have spoiled me for other sushi bars. Overall, it was an experience well wort...

What Anonym dislikes about Sozai:
Oh my goodness, we tried the sashimi platter, poke of the day, red violin, bowler roll, vegetable tempura, namagi, and pickled platter at this restaurant. The sashimi was served with perfect pairings and we also enjoyed the Gyokuro tea. We were extremely impressed by the quality and presentation of all the dishes we ordered. The interior of the restaurant is clean and cozy. Just be aware that reservations must be mad... View all feedback.

Service was good, no complaints there. Food options were okay. All our personal opinion if you cannot relate, please skip. We regularly get our Sushi and Sashimi from one world market in Novi and love that. The food here did not impress us at all. Miso soup not good Tiger eye did not like Karage Chicken could use some more seasoning or side serving of ketchup. Blooming rice with veggies was recommended instead of plain rice it was ok Tuna tataki was okay Bowler Roller didn’t like Salmon Sashimi Shake that was ok Please excuse as I am writing the names of dishes, based on what I remember. We love Japanese food and have tried various places both in US and Japan. I will not recommend this place. Kura revolving has more fun and yummy food. If your taste buds like taste of these places Kira or one world, you may not like the food here. Kudos to them for giving importance to sustainability in fish farming. Reservation I made it almost a month in advance but I think they take walk ins as entire time we were there many were empty. It does show that it does not have any availability online.
