In Short
It isn't the most creative Japanese restaurant in town, but what it lacks in flair it more than makes up for in reliability, dedicated service and unhurried confidence. After hot hand towels, locals and foodies turn their attention to the gorgeous Minneapolis skyline over the Mississippi as they sample the extensive sake menu. There's an enormous prix-fixe dinner, which includes your choice of sashimi or yakitori; broiled marinated salmon and shrimp and vegetable tempura.

My friend suggested this part of town, so I did some reviewing and found Kikugawa to have the best ratings on this beautiful strip. I was disappointed with the restaurant. The caterpillar role had hardly any eel in it and the special sauce on the over baked bay scallops and mushrooms "dynamite" tasted closer to hollandaise than anything. The green tea tasted like hay and the server had very little knowledge about the food. As far as selection it all looked pretty expansive except for the maki rolls. The style is very 1990's with its cheap wood and teal colors. And worst yet NO patio for this great location. Price's are fair.

The tempura is light, fluffy, and full of flavor; by far the best in town. The bento boxes are also very flavorful. Love the Japanese atmosphere. Truly my favorite Japanese resturant in town.

I've been here a number of times and have enjoyed. The views from the one spot are fantastic, the main dining room is boring but there is also another area that one dines while sitting low to the ground on pillows (semi-authentic). The sushi is good but nothing extraordinary. I really enjoy the Bento as well as the teriaki. I would not say this is $$$ but more $$; especially so if you own a happenings/entertainment book!
