Azabu Mission Bay

The food was tasty, but nothing that really stood out or left a lasting impression on my palate. While it was enjoyable, I was hoping for something more unique or bold in flavor. On the other hand, the cocktails were excellent, well-crafted and full of flavor. The ambiance of the place was beautiful, with a stylish and inviting atmosphere that made the experience pleasant. Overall, it was a nice visit, but the food didn’t quite live up to the expectations set by the setting and drinks.

Absolutely incredible dinner experience. We walked in with no reservations, and they were able to seat us quickly with no issues, in the spacious outside area with a fantastic view of the ocean. I recommend making a reservation though, as we were lucky!nThe food itself was absolutely incredible. For two people, 6 plates was the perfect amount! Any more and we would have been unable to move afterwards. Our server, Rory, was incredible! So deeply attentive and really made our dining experience extra special, Thank you!

Wonderful restaurant with great ambiance and layout. Went here with a group and enjoyed our time there. The food was great, and the staff were accommodating though a little rushed off their feet. It's definitely worth a visit for special occasions.

This is a great Japanese restaurant that’s nearly beachfront. You get beautiful views of the beach and a nice breeze while enjoying some great tasting food. The highlight of this visit would be the Tuna Tostada for us. The volcano roll was pretty good too. The cucumbers were okay, a bit thick and a little bitter so not as enjoyable as I would have liked.

**Food: 6/10**n**Service: 2/10**nnThe food was decent, but the service from the manager, Rose, was very disappointing and ruined what was supposed to be a special occasion.nnMy partner booked a table via call three weeks in advance for my birthday, specifically requesting one with a good view. He gave another call a week later to highlight that we wanted a table for two with a good view. However, when we arrived, we were seated at a table in the middle of the hall next to a large family.nnWhen we asked about a better table, explaining the prior calls and that it was for my birthday, Rose dismissed us, saying tables are never guaranteed and that birthdays are very common, as if that wasn’t a good enough reason to honor our request. Her response alone gave me enough reason not to choose Azabu Mission Bay for any special occasions in the future. While we understand the restaurant can’t guarantee the “best” table, her dismissive attitude and lack of empathy made the experience unpleasant.nnThis made us question our choice of Azabu Mission Bay for a special occasion, especially since I’ve had such great experiences with the service and food at Azabu Ponsonby. Moving forward, I won’t choose Azabu Mission Bay for any special occasions and wouldn’t recommend it to others either.nnThat said, our waiter was excellent, and the food was ok overall, but starting the evening with such poor service from the manager was a major letdown. A little understanding and better communication from the team could have made all the difference.
