I had an amazing server, Sanjay. Super charismatic and really knew everything about the menu. He suggested a few appetizers and some rolls. All of his suggestions were amazing. This guy deserves a raise!!

I come here about twice a month, and that takes extreme discipline! I'm always very satisfied with the fresh sushi and the incredible service. Try the truffles! When I have friends or family visit, this is always on the list of things to do.

First time Dining here! About two weeks ago from this date. I have nothing negative to say about this place. The customer service was exceptional. May, our server, was incredibly attentive and gave us the best suggestions at reasonable prices combos etc. The food was heavenly. We even got complimentary dessert, which made us feel so special and welcomed. The team here is fantastic, and the restaurant service is top-notch. Plus, the robot June is an adorable bonus! You won’t regret trying this place!

My server was amazing she made great suggestions, was really genuinely kind and attentive, she also gave me complementary sushi piece “sunshine” and was AMAZING ! The “super white truffle oil” was delicious 🤤. The blue fin toro roll was also crazy good. I am a big sushi fan and I do recommend this place.

Absolutely love this place. The quality of the food so much better than most sushi places in the area. It's always so fresh. The service is great. I come here often and will continue to. They have a large menu with many unique rolls and appetizers. Still great! Just came for my birthday and they sang, gave me ice cream, took a picture, framed it, and gave it to me. So much fun!! And food and service was fabulous as always.

Excellent service, food is top notch. The shark was fresh and tender, perfectly seasoned. Great atmosphere, not crowded. Large assortment of drinks, sake (both hot and cold). Prices very good . The salad crisp, chilled and refreshing. The sushi and sashimi - spot on. Recommend to anyone that enjoys sushi or sashimi.

I went to pick up an order, there was no one at the entrance, I walked to ask for my order and when I tried to ask a person who works at the place, the woman who works and should be at the entrance told me that I can't talk to the chef and He treated me very badly, they should make sure they have someone at the entrance who also treats customers well, horrible experience

We had a problem with something that was prompting me to want to leave a not so nice review. The manager may have been part owner, stepped up, and resolved the issue exactly as it should have been resolved. Food has always been exceptional. We were given a sample of the Baby Shark, which was great. A sample of another fish, which was ok. I can't remember what it was called. And a sample of the fried banana, which was great. It was pretty cool that they did that. I would never have ordered the baby shark otherwise. Next time, I plan to.

Had a lovely dinner out. Not busy for a Monday and walked right in and seated quickly. May, our server, was delightful and made 2 suggestions that we swapped 'in' to our order, the 'calamari kick' app and the 'crispy spicy tuna maki'. Both I wouldn't have normally tried, and both didn't disappoint. However, if you want more flavor of the fish, over the crunch, you may opt for something similar but without the pan fried rice. In addition, we tried the Bluefin Toro Maki that was very flavorful and our standby tuna and avocado. Food was great, May was great and definitely going back again!

A friend recommended it, and I am so glad they did! This was a treat for my daughter's birthday, and good sushi is one food my adult children can agree on. My son was leary because this was our first time here, but was quickly impressed by the atmosphere and service. This was soon overtaken by the quality of the sushi itself. The fish was fresh, and presentation on point! The entire experience was enhanced with the occasional complemtary, sample selections served, the complimentary birthday dessert, and balloon blossom presented to my daughter just for mentioning we were celebrating!

Today was our first time at Swordfish, and we can't say enough good things about it! Wonderful service (May was an absolute delight) and the food is absolutely fantastic! Though we loved everything, we highly recommended the "baby shark" roll (just the name... not made of actual baby shark 😋) and the Moon River roll. We also took our 6 year old daughter who got the kids' sushi plate, and it was the first time she cleaned her plate eating at a sushi restaurant. Thanks again for a wonderful night out! We will definitely be back!

Was just thinking tonight of how deeply grateful I am to have this restaurant within our community. They have DELICIOUS food and are thoughtful from start to finish -- we've had many family birthdays here, and they always provide a framed photo of our group to the birthday guest. They send a little freebie to the table or with a takeout order. What I appreciate most of all is that they are SO accomodating of my Celiac, having very clearly marked gluten free items and taking special care. HIGHLY recommend. Never a bad experience.

I came from out of town for an appointment and found this place for lunch while wandering around. It was clean, inviting, everyone was welcoming and polite. I was seated by a robot that carried your drink to a table. It was pretty cool to watch it maneuver around. I got different sushi off the menu to try and all of it tasted great. I was there for lunch, so the special came with a soup and ice cream after you ate. They were both great also. I would definitely go back if I'm in town.

My brother had the 15 piece sashimi dish which was beautifully sliced, very artfully presented and in his words, the best he ever had. my swordfish was good, but the fish and the vegetables were on the cool side: made worse by the fact that it was served quite a long time prior to the sashimi plate, and I had to wait a bit for the wasabi I asked for. That is the only complaint I really have, or it would have been a 5 star experience. If the kitchen can prep and present main courses at the same time, diners can enjoy their meals together. The tempura was delightful and the hostess explained to us the one vegetable we were not quite familiar with. Overall, a very pleasant experience.
