Morimoto Napa Reviews

i'm sorry to say, it was so loud in the dining room it was literally painful, making for a tense and uncomfortable atmosphere. we had to shout across the table to hear each other. even the waiter was drowned out by the crowd. everyone else must
We had lunch service there.
Wasn't impressed, so sad to write this review. First at host table where we were asked to sit down in the lobby to wait . The place was empty. We were on time, why did we need to wait ? We had hamachi carpaccio, which was stringy and not good. L
$120 nigiri plater was ok.
Added fresh wasabi was not worth the $10 not sure if they just gave more of the same wasabi. Black cod was fishy. Best dish of the night was the hot oil carpaccio. Service was good.

Had a nice ambient dinner for our first meal of our Napa Trip. 5 minute uber from our hotel. The entrance is so artsy and well designed. Feels like someone's home living room area. Took awhile to get seated even tho we had a reservation but got
Second time I've been there, dead both times.
Portions are small, and pricey. Ordered half of a Peking Duck, what came out was a 1/4 leg of roasted duck leg served with flour tortillas, you might be able to fool non asian diners that this is the real deal, peking duck with the buns is not served
Well Worth the Experience
The BEST restaurant in DownTown Napa, Morimoto is committed to excellence in its quality of steaks and sushi. Dishes are not only expertly prepared, but plated in a way that makes you want to keep ordering different menu items just to see the beautif

My Review for Morimoto Napa,,,, For our first year of love, I planned something sweet, My lady had wished for Morimoto's elite. Atmosphere tranquil, the service divine, Each waiter was friendly with knowledge that shines. The Chef's 7-c
Lucky to get 3 stars.
Came on a Monday for lunch. No one else on the patio... not busy inside...if fact hostess mentioned how slow they were when I walked in. It took awhile, but I received my first dish within an appropriate amount of time. Then... I waited and waited
Food was pretty good, I would say 7/10 for sushi.
The o-Toro and Maguro were cut very well, super fresh and tasty. The service was very helpful and efficient, the water glasses were almost never empty, and the food was served quickly. Inside is massive, there is a mostly open kitchen and a lot of
Really enjoyed the food, nice ambience and great service
Really enjoyed the food, nice ambience and great service there. Fancy nigiri 4 appetizer fire searing at the table, taste so fresh too. A5 Wagyu appetizer tastes good but based on texture it must be American Wagyu not Japanese. We enjoyed the miso
You are just paying for the name and the location .
Only tourist come and not repeat patrons.Better just go to panda express.Food mediocre
Disappointing service and so-so sushi
Disappointed with Morimoto Napa. Service was slow (had to ask for refills of our water glasses, staff disappeared for extended periods of time). Water tasted very minerally. Wasabi was weak. Shrimp tempura maki roll was just bland and the tempura was

Really sad to rate Morimoto so low, but considering the hype surrounding Chef Morimoto, I had higher expectations for this restaurant and my experience here. While I would definitely come back for the food, I think there are quite a few better spots
Ok this place is my ALL TIME favorite!! The chefs special
Ok this place is my ALL TIME favorite!! The chefs special (sushi plate) is a MUST have, do not skip, do not pass go. Just fyi the S'more dessert is Not a S'more...it's ice cream which sucked, because I'm lactose intolerant but eve
Disappointed
Based on the positive reviews, we were excited to try their food. Massive disappointment! The service: our server was fine, but the busser spilled a few things all over the table while removing the dishes. Then to top that, she forcefully - and I d
Great Staff, Great Stop
Great solo experience, and dined at the bar. Juan, and the team were all super friendly. Definitely a great stop for dinner or a quick bite. Definitely get the Rock Shrimp Tempura (app), and the White Lily (Cocktail)
Delicious, expensive large portions
The apps and entrees were excellent. No complaints whatsoever. The chili spicey chicken was huge. Literally after 2 apps and a drink the chicken could easily feed three women or a man and a woman. Four people, some drinks, two apps, 4 main dishes $31
Didn’t Meet My Expectations
We live in the Asia Pacific region and wanted to experience a special New Year’s Eve dinner in Napa. So we went to MorimotoIn Napa Dec 31, 2024. It was really loud as the acoustics in the restaurant were not that good. We ordered hot green tea to
A Sad Turn of events
We have been dining at this location for years. We will not be in the future. When they first reopened after Covid their menu was super limited and expensive. It is still super limited and ridiculously expensive. The waiter paid very little attention
Delicious, authentic Japanese!
Having lived in Tokyo, finding good Japanese food in America can be a challenge, BUT thank God for Morimoto! I’ve been a fan since iron chef and I’m thrilled that my first time visiting far exceeded my expectations. Everything was fresh, cooked w
💯 absolutely the best place in Napa.
This place is amazing. The food is soooooo good. The service surprisingly is even better. Amir and Jose are the perfect and take your experience to another level. Josh makes the best drinks around! Honestly if I could I would come every single day
Wonderful ❤️
Thank you for that wonderful evening! Food, drinks and service were amazing! We enjoyed it very much. When we are back in Napa, we will come to Marinoto 👍🏻❤️. See you!

I ate at Morimoto Napa a few years ago and both the food and service were outstanding. Sadly, that wasn't the case this time. We received water immediately, but didn't see the waiter for 15-20 minutes. When they did show up, I asked what was on the o

I sat at the the beautiful bar and watched Cameron and Juan construct masterpiece beverages. Cameron explained the differences in tastes of sakes, and I dined on appetizers (I couldn't eat any more!) The rock shrimp tempura and aburi sushi 4 ways wer
Service was amazing.
..we had the best wait staff. Everything was tasty and my kids appreciated the extra treatment. Highly recommend this spot if you are visiting Napa and craving sushi!
First time here but not impressed at all.
The place looks very nice and many servers. Do not order their Omakase! It's not worth the price and it took way too long to bring the food out. We were there 2 1/2 hrs and the last 3 courses still did not come to us. We had to wait 1/2 hour for
disappointed with Morimoto Napa.
Shushi freshness does not live up to the standard. Rice are not cook well. Flavor for soup is also over salted. Expect better from his name.
We loved our first visit to Morimoto Napa! -Tofu miso
We loved our first visit to Morimoto Napa! -Tofu miso soup: It's a generous portion that's enough to share. It's delicious and the creamy tofu at the bottom reminds me of the Filipino dessert, taho. -You MUST order the toro tartare. It's a raw tun

We have heard so many things about this place and we're excited to try it. It definitely did not live up to the hype. I felt like it was overrated. We had reservations for 7:00pm on a Friday so of course it was busy but the place was big enough to al
The legendary spot in Napa and around the world was great.
Not cheap, but worth the money. Great food, atmosphere and service. Beautiful place and will definitely be back!
Perfection with my Sushi & Seafood.
Josh and Anthony (Mgrs) lead an exceptional team -- Well done Chef Morimoto!
Not worth a reservation
Omakase was fine (7 courses, 2 were memorable/unique) Ordered several other dishes (sticky ribs were good), none of the sushi impressed us and I personally enjoyed the Black Cod dish the most. Despite walking in for an early seating, the service be
Wonderful dining experience.
Wonderful experience. The food was very inventive and the staff is very well trained. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough.
Special occasion dinner
Hands down best sushi we have ever had. Amazing sampling menu, great wine and service. Great ambience. Let’s be real…..this is a date night of the decade restaurant with eye watering prices. Not a first date outing….only for “keepers”.
Napa ‘s finest
For the celebration of our youngest son we stayed in Napa for the weekend. Although it is low season it was a challenge to get a booking but boy were we in for a treat. We chose the chefs menu a seven course dinner and we were not disappointed. Supe
Wonder end to a great day!
Great food. And a really awesome server! Christie/ Crystal (so sorry bad memory). She was so wonderful she made our night. The food and drinks were great too! And we really appreciated her suggestions. Highly recommended by us!
Meh.
Food was good, service was weak. The place is LOUD and the tables seat you very far apart so you feel like you need to yell. We waited until the tables cleared out and scooched closer together. It was our 24th anniversary. Our server wasn't busy b
Will not be back
I love Japanese cuisine and was excited to go there. My husband and I were terribly disappointed in the food preparations and taste of most of what we ordered. Only the edamame, rolls and sashimi were good. The cod tasted like it was in a bbq sauce a
Incredible Dining Experience
We were in Napa for a few days, and Morimoto's has been on our list of restaurants to try. We did make reservations and I suggest making them. We were there in the middle of the week the end of September and the restaurant was packed. The ambiance
Great atmosphere, excellent food and service!
The food was excellent! Very well spaced out. Very attentive service. Samantha was our server. She was knowledgeable, had great recommendations and provided excellent service. Ended the night with the chocolate sphere, very cool! This restaurant was
Always good sushi takeout
We are busy during the day so we order their rolls for home consumption. Easy to order and drive by for pickup. Surprise at how reasonable they are priced for the quality received. Also, just head to bar, and order a few rolls for a quick snack.
The perfect dining experience in Napa
We last ate at Morimoto Napa about 5 years ago and loved it then, and we till love it! The restaurant is large and ever so tastefully decorated and despite the large size, it has a certain intimacy. The service is perfect, informative, attentive but
Unfortunately the quality of service has dropped
Unfortunately the quality of service has dropped tremendously. It used to be one of my go-to spots, but now I try to avoid it as best I can. Food and drinks are tasty, but it's hard to spend your money at a place you feel unwanted.
I went there to meet up with a long time friend.
I haven't seen him and caught up in YEARS! I get there before him and I go to the host stand and she was quite lovely! She asked if I wanted to wait or be seated so I waited. The lobby was so elegantly decorated with a rustic feel. My friend got ther

Made a reservation at 2:30pm only to Find out the kitchen closes at 2:45pm! There are TWO Morimoto Napa restaurants (one says Asia the other doesn't) we happened to go to the wrong one and missed the opportunity to eat here. THEY SHOULD LET PEOPLE KN
Loved this place.
Went there for an amazing sushi experience and was not disappointed. My friend and I shared things and had amazing cocktails. It's a bit pricey but worth it. Morimoto is one of my fave iron chefs lol
Connect with users posting reservations for Morimoto Napa
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Morimoto Napa. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Morimoto Napa at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Morimoto Napa page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FluffyStar64, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* FluffyStar64 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FluffyStar64 for any questions Peter may have as FluffyStar64 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FluffyStar64 now uses their connections at Morimoto Napa to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FluffyStar64 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FluffyStar64 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FluffyStar64's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Morimoto Napa!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
