Unpleasant Experience - Tampa Location
by jeremyrb
Called ahead and made reservations for a party of 7. We were seated promptly on arrival, but in the wrong location, staff confused my name with another, after I had repeated it several times. 30 minutes into our dinner we were asked to move to another location. An hour after ordering we were told that kitchen staff was not present and some dishes were taking longer than usual. We were polite and offered to wait. When food did arrive it was all cold and below average. Sushi was average, and better can be found at other places in Tampa. My bill for the evening was $165.00. Despite our poor experience, and sub-standard food, staff was more than happy to swipe my card without even a sorry. I've had sushi at several restaurants in the tampa bay area there is better. Despite our horrible experience, the sushi wasn't worth the hassle.
- Cons: Poor Service, Poor Management, Average Food
Dissappointing
by bell_14
After making a reservation and being seated, a larger party came in and they moved us! We were in the middle of eating. After being moved they made no attempt to correct their error or make us happy. They brought some members food serperately in 10 min intervals and some of the dishes were competely cold. When I told the waitress she responded by saying, she told me they were short a chief. As if I should understand poor service, cold food and rude wait staff.
- Cons: Rude staff, Cold food
A chain that doesn't disappoint? Finally.

The Skinny
Chain restaurants usually arouse immediate suspicion, and with good reason. Luckily, JoTo is different. Tucked in a strip mall right by a bridal shop, it's easy to miss this restaurant along the busy road. But find it and indulge yourself in some of the best and freshest sushi in the Bay Area. The decor is more opulent than your average Japanese restaurant, and their service is courteous and swift. Order from an extensive sushi menu, or, for the less adventurous, sample their decent variety of surf 'n' turf. The chefs cook right at your table and usually put on great shows.

The Scene
Chain restaurants usually arouse immediate suspicion, and with good reason. We're used to them producing the same tired, unimaginative food that appeals to the masses, rarely revamping their menu or offering anything unusual.

Sushi Rolls
by baybabe
The best sushi in town! Sit at the sushi bar and feel free to talk to the chefs- they are very friendly and willing to explain what they are making and how. Fresh ingredients. Great combinations. Will leave you craving more!
- Pros: Great food, Fresh, Friendly staff
- Cons: Parking, Wait
Just the way I like it

Good Price

This restaurant has good sushi/sashimi/tempura. Salad dressing not consistent. Inexpensive and comfortable seating.
