Food is mediocre at best, service is painfully slow, environment is poor & prices are high when considering those factors.

Service needs to improve. We request multiple time a birthday acknowledgment and they ignored it.

I had a terrible experience "the worst night ever". I made a reservation for my friend for her birthday and so excited since they ask me what is the occasion and they might do a little surprise. We arrive at the place and sitted. We ordered some drink for started and the disappointment started my friend drink was wrong even if the server repeated the order two times. The next thing would be our order which we usually get some sushi and nigiri's nothing that would take long to be served. But we waited an hour for our food to arrive and the server Jade trying to tell us that is the usually wait for the order as if we don't know and trying to keep us waiting by keep on telling us 5mins more it felt like a never ending 5mins. We were sitted outside and we saw two tables were served and finished dine before our food even arrived even if we were got there before those guest. The two of us were totally let out and our orders was forgotten. Servers passing by not even asking anything even though they saw us sitting without any food for a long time. Long story short the food was mediocre considering the price we paid , service was horrible, not so pleasant attitude with the server. And the surprise they keep on mentioning was not even served. I felt they totally are not organized and prepared. It was just an ordinary night. Considering this was a WEDNESDAY NIGHT. Not busy. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone especially if you are celebrating any occasion!!! They are ripped off!! Bad service!

We had such a great time at Banbu. The service was amazing and the food was delicious. We were sat in an area that was more private and that was so nice! Loved it!! Thank you to the staff.

We sat at the sushi bar. Our server was attentive but perhaps too attentive as we were constantly interrupted while talking. When we were ready we would have flagged her down. The bar was mostly empty. The sushi chef handed our orders to us rather than setting them on the ledge in front of us. This too was an interruption as we had to stop talking, put our drinks down to take the plates from him. Not traditional Japanese sushi service. The food could have been fresher. Some things seemed as though they had been sitting out too long. Rolls and nigiri were ok but a bit bland. Not bad overall but we probably won’t go back.
