Really nice ambience here with both indoor and outdoor seating. Went for dinner and tried the Udon and a couple of sushi rolls. The sushi was solid — I had the Land Shark and Tropi Maki, both pretty tasty. The Udon soup was just okay for me, but it might be because it was my first time trying it. Overall, a good spot to check out.

Mobo Sushi is an absolute joke. Out experience was horrible. Our waitress, an older woman seemed to be upset that we brought our two kids with us, and was just rude and in a bad mood in general. The kids bento box was mediocre with overcooked chicken and soggy tempura. The $80 banana slug roll that we ordered was complete garbage. First off the inside of the whole roll was filled avocado and imitation crab. It was topped with fishy salmon and maguro. No sauce, no tobiko, no excitement whatsoever. Like I said complete garbage. I have never felt so ripped off. I could have gotten better sushi from the supermarket right next door. I would not recommend this restaurant to anybody. Don’t waste your time or money. Tge only reason I gave 1 star is because you can’t do a review with 0 stars.

Yummy food, great atmosphere, wonderful staff! It was my first time here today and I decided to try a new place for sushi. It was delicious, I HIGHLY suggest the Giyuniku Udon, and Holy Moly Maki!

We went with a group of seven. Easy to get a table since we called a bit ahead of time and the weather was wet. We ordered the big sashimi platter $140. It had a bit of everything, mostly salmon and tuna. Calamari, octopus, lovely sashimi wrapped up in cucumber, mackerel, little cucumber cups filled with tobiko. We enjoyed 6 or 7 rolls, all different, all good. Ended dinner with green tea ice cream and tempura banana w/ vanilla ice cream. Plenty of sake and tea. The server was attentive but not too much. We all had a good time. I recommend visiting Mobo, I will be back. Well I went back with some friends. Last week. It was good again. Same kind of dinner as last time. Large sashimi boat, some rolls, sake n beer. The sashimi boat is not the cruise liner it was last time, same pr

We ordered via telephone with the intention of picking up our order. The nice woman said our order would be ready in 45 minutes. When we arrived in 50 minutes it was not ready. We were told it's not ready. Long story short, we came back 3 times and finally got our order after 2 hours. It was apparent orders were not being completed in the order in which they were received. If you didn't take a table, your order will be kicked to the curb. Another to-go group also had an extended wait time. They said they talked to the manager and received a $20 gift card. Based on my observations of the manager and hostess, I'm certain the manager knew about my situation. When I expressed my frustration to the nice hostess lady, she suggested I speak to the manager who was eyeing me from the bar but did no
