Sushi is not an level of 5 star hotel restaurant because of very low rice quality and too big rice size while too small sashimi size on rice and the lack of wasabi on sishi(I believe this chef doesn't have confidence of wasabi), end up very low sushi quality compared to high price in 5 star hotel's restaurant in the perspective of the man (me)who used to have sushi or sashimi every weeks for entire life. Their chef do not know how to make sushi in a high-edge class. I heard they used to have japanese chef but no more have him. To be frank with you, The chef who do not experience to eat good sushi should not know how to cook sushi very well. It is kinda native sense. That is why I respect the restaurant which have japanese chef who experience raw sea food for entire life. I believe here sushi quality is as similar as mori and garnell sushi but some good quality garnell and mori branches are better than here. and the Fuego in zamalek is better than here. If I were you, I won't go here to eat sushi. In addition, There are mamy useless menu make-up such seafood soup which is not an japanese style but egyptian style and etc.
However, Fried rice is very nice. And the service by waiter and manager is wonderful and the mood by beautiful interior and cozy light are like 5 star hotel's restaurant. and hot noodle is so so.
In summary: I wouldn't recommend you to eat sushi here. but You better go to mori sushi in citystar because of cheaper and same quality. The restaurant need someone who review their food make-up and quality.
I visited again here today. Quality is still bad as same as it was. Refer to pictures which shows you not a good quality of foods here!!!!! What I mean is that compared to high price and their concept which looks that they pursue to be high-end Japanese restaurant but in reality, They don't have fresh and high quality of raw fish and doesn't know how to use wasabi and cook rice and make suhi with proper size of rice but still providing good service and have excellent mood with luxurious interiors.
Good news is that new japanese chef just arrived. I wish they achieved to improve enough quality ASAP to be suitable for high price in 5stars hotel. Right now, Quality is very similar to mori sush or garnell sushi but they provide these with reasonable prices but here never!!!!
In summary, I don't want to waist my money here but I will visit again because they scouted japanese chef. If they can't improve their quality with japanese chef, They better get rid of sushi and sahimi corner and run tepanyaki only due to quality issue because it would make customers feel unsatisfied with price and the expectation of 5stars hotel restaurant, which should be better for intercontinental...
Read moreI recently had the pleasure of dining at Shogun restaurant with my family, and I must say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted by the friendly staff and seated at a comfortable table.
The highlight of our evening was undoubtedly the impeccable service provided by Moustafa, the outlet manager & his assistant Bassem. They went above and beyond to ensure that we had a memorable dining experience. Moustafa & Bassem were attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about delivering top-notch service. They took the time to explain the menu, made excellent recommendations, and ensured that all of our needs were met throughout the evening.
The food at Shogun was absolutely delicious. Each dish was expertly prepared and beautifully presented. The menu had a wide variety of options to cater to different tastes, and everything we ordered was flavorful and cooked to perfection. The sushi rolls were fresh and flavorful, and the hibachi grill experience was both entertaining and delicious.
The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and inviting, with a tasteful decor that created a pleasant atmosphere for our family dinner. The cleanliness and hygiene standards were also commendable, which further added to our overall satisfaction.
I cannot recommend Shogun restaurant highly enough. If you're looking for an outstanding dining experience, exceptional service, and delicious Japanese cuisine, this is the place to go.
I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the entire staff at Shogun, especially Moustafa & Bassem for making our family dinner a truly memorable one. We will definitely be returning and recommending this restaurant to our friends...
Read moreThe absolute worst restaurant I went to for a hibachi experience. The chef was somewhat entertaining but the food was super pricey and absolutely terrible. We ordered all teppenyaki entrees which included shrimp and lobster tail and lemme tell you, the lobster tail was smaller than the shrimp and was super overpriced. Everyone had to saver their tiniest piece of £600 lobster tail at the end to “enjoy it”. Forget about the size of the lobster tail, everything tasted fishy and almost the same flavor since they were all cooked with the same spatula and same seasonings on everything. The chicken tastes like bad shrimp, the beef was tender and good but needed seasoning and everything else was decent nothing wow. The only thing I would “recommend” is their sushi, it was actually really good but for the price, wouldn’t go back again since I’ve had better at much cheaper places. Don’t waste your money at this place unless they magically do everything completely different and not waste peoples time by thinking their posh and here for just a show. Give us both a show and great food. 2/10 would...
