The Scene – Suburbanites and young couples flock to this Kenmore Square spot for impeccable service and top-level sushi. Kimono-clad, bilingual waitresses greet diners with a hot towel and proceed to describe the numerous Japanese delicacies on the lengthy, intricate menu. Rounding out the ambience is the bright sushi bar (patrolled by up to four master dicers and rollers) and a killer sake bar that features 20 varieties. – – The Food – With an extensive, colorful sushi list and over 100 items on the dinner menu, patrons face several tough decisions when ordering.…

Great sushi in a not overly trendy environment.

by Tiffany M

My friends and I love getting sushi here on a regular basis because it is a great place for groups and a comfortable dining setting. Unlike a lot of sushi restaurants, this place isn't über contemporary and filled with uncomfortable chairs and tables. It's great sushi and conveniently located.

Oh, and on nice days they open the patio overlooking Beacon St., which is a plus. They have such a nice location.

  • Pros: Servers wear kimonos during dinner service!
  • Cons: None

Horrible food

by SushiLover09

Ginza's website looked great so we thought the food might be good as well. However, there was gravel in my shrimp tempura roll! We returned the food and refused to eat anything else, and they still tried to charge us for everything. It was horrible. I'm definitely filing a complaint with the city.

  • Pros: Location?
  • Cons: Food is horrible; service is even worse

I'll never go there again.

by julianayako

I'm Japanese.I was looking forward to going to GINZA because I have heard it 's pretty good.But I was totally disappointed!The waitresses' attitudes were so BAD.They treated me like a little kid,though I am a grownup.What is more,when I didn't give them a tip because I didn't want to,they brought the bill to us again!

Also the sushi didn't taste good.I do prefer "Blue Fin" in cambridge.

I wonder why there are no Japanese waitresses in GINZA?They are Asian,but they are not Japanese at all.

The Details on Ginza Japanese Restaurant

Save Money:

Students and budget-conscious diners should head elsewhere, as cheaper (but not better) sushi can be found nearby around youthful Kenmore Square.

Know Before You Go:

The pricey B-52 roll ($11) may be listed an appetizer, but the double-rolled yellowtail-and-crab treat is a meal in itself.
