What people say about Morimoto
Comments tend to focus on the high quality of the sushi and sashimi, the spectacular setting, and the special experience one gets from ordering omakase or a multiple-course dinner. Comments on attentive service and presentation of the food are frequent, too. However, recent diners have occasionally complained about a lack of pace and service, and even about whether the dinner was worth its steep cost.
About Morimoto
Morimoto is the signature restaurant of Chef Masaharu Morimoto located in Philadelphia, specializing in Japanese cuisine in Chestnut Street. This restaurant offers the blend of old-school Japanese cooking with new presentations, along with a wide range of sushi and sashimi, hot courses, and the eight-course omakase.
The guests don’t have to opt for the tasting menu. The à la carte menu items are such as tartare, carpaccio, rock shrimp tempura, gyoza, ramen, black cod, wagyu, and many types of nigiri and rolls.
Such variety is helpful when guests want different kinds of meals. One party may concentrate on eating raw fish, the other party on ordering cooked entrees, and the third party may be guided through the evening by the kitchen choosing omakase.
For those people who would like to search for the Japanese cuisine or sushi in Philadelphia, Morimoto is still distinctive, as this restaurant combines a high-end raw fish bar with a full-size contemporary kitchen and sake bar.
