I rarely write reviews, but my recent visit to Hoshi was so disappointing that I felt compelled to share my experience. My wife is vegetarian and was inquiring about the advertised Veggie Bento Box. We were thrown off because the menu says it comes with: rice/veggies, 2 piece spring roll, and 4 pc california roll (NOT vegetarian) OR kani salad (NOT vegetarian). We asked the gentleman if the kani salad was veggie and he said yes - we then looked at the menu and it said it was crab (so not vegetarian gotcha.)

All the workers I've encountered are...
Read moreFirst sushi experience except for a nibble a dozen years ago, really great and I've been told it's somewhat authentic as well.
Surprisingly the biggest variety of vegetarian options in town but most of it is off menu/veg customizations.
They get 5 stars for being great tasting and having that accomodation but I would suggest they capitalize on that fact and add vegetarian/allergy notations to their menu especially their online menus. It would make it easier on those of us with alternative diets/food restrictions and it would set them apart from the other restaurants in town even more. Really great customer service too especially when compared to the...
