Ginza Japanese Restaurant

The Around C-Town blogger was lucky enough to enjoy a meal at Ginza on Hudson St. this past week. Ginza has been operating in Chinatown for many years and has become a common staple for sushi in Chinatown. The owners also opened another location on Beacon St. in Brookline.

I have to say I was a bit reluctant to return to this restaurant. My prior dining experience left a less than favorable impression on me. However, I was there to celebrate the birthday of a good friend so I was willing to give Ginza another chance. I have to say I was surprised. The dining experience was much better than before. The temperature of the restaurant was pleasant. The wait staff was very helpful and the management was nice enough to try and find the Celtics game for me…but with no luck.

If my attempt for seconds didn’t show my excitement, the sushi was a lot better than before, but it wasn’t outstanding. It was a pleasant dining experience with almost no complaints. I would consider returning to Ginza if they were able to maintain this standard. The only complaint I would have is that our waitress went through the specials a bit too quickly for us to remember them. However, she made up for it by highlighting them when she returned with an itemized sushi menu. Good Catch!!!

I will have my fingers crossed the next time I go to Ginza in Boston.
