    I was blown away by the vibe of this place! Between the music, ambiance, table setting, and Christmas crackers, this place was amazing. We chose the festive menu. I don’t realize you get all of the food on the menu! I thought you chose one app, entree, and dessert. Plate after plate of delicious food came out and it could have fed six people. The only improvement i would recommend is that you need bus boys to clear the plates and empty glasses. The server kept looking for places to set down the food, however, the table was cluttered with dishes. I literally had to tell them to clear the glasses and dishes.

    Wonderful food as always, with finest ingredients immaculately prepared and served by Jenice and the team. Japanese is never cheap but at least with Suhinoen you can taste the quality and value. Would and regularly do recommend for lunch or dinner and no one is ever disappointed and it usually becomes a favourite of theirs too. There is bar code ordering (very Japanese) but just have a word when you get there as you can still just order from the waiting staff.
