I'm down here visiting a friend and he's the tour guide this weekend. He chose this restaurant for dinner last night. I am always leary of raw fish, but I figured "What the hell?" I wasn't disappointed. It had a great atmosphere to sit and talk, especially the booths that allow you to sit on the floor. The food was... more

Don't let the interior decorations fool you, this place is an absolute joke. I recently went there Oct. 13 2007 and imagine the place will be out of business in less than two months. After it took them thirty minutes to bring out canned tasting Miso soup along with salads in the size of rabit portions I was somewhat suspicious.... more

Went to Shizen Restaurant on Las Olas Blvd with great expectations..... Friday night no wait was a plus and we were seated immediately as the restaurant was less than half full and there was only one person at the Sushi Bar, which we asked to sit at. (about 830PM) Service was good. The waiter took our drink order and the... more

This is where my boyfriend and I take friends that visit from out of town. There is a great ambiance, especially if you can get one of the booths where you sit on the floor. Its authentic with a trendy flair and we always have a great meal. I'm a vegetarian and I can even leave happy. The food is... more

Wow, I found a little place that I know I will be going back to time and time again. We had a wonderful dinner, the mushroom appetiser was incredible . We tried their oysters with a difference - it was oysters with a cerviche like topping - amaaaaaaaazing! The sushi was really really fresh. Overall - our waitress was wonderful... more
