Musashi Frisco - Frisco (TX)

5 /5 Hallie McCulloch: This is an absolute HIDDEN GEM. The food and service were top tier and the atmosphere was relaxed but just fancy enough. The blue fin tuna in the sashimi was AMAZING and the lychee martini was the best cocktail I’ve had in a long time.

5 /5 M J (Texas Foodie): Really great Japanese restaurant. Their lunch specials are a bargain and a lot of food for the money. Their nigiri (I had salmon) was very fresh and tasty. The fried rice was excellent as was the Sukiyaki. Friendly staff.

5 /5 Richard Williamson: We are visiting Dallas and came to Musashi for a late night dinner. The server was extremely kind and the staff were very accommodating of my gluten allergy. The kitchen was able to make a lot of the items gluten free with gluten free soy sauce. There were plenty of of traditional sushi rolls and fried sushi rolls but also a lot of great non sushi dishes that were absolutely worth it. The restaurant is also open late which is a huge plus for us. Highly recommend, and I wish we had one in Arkansas!

1 /5 Erica Monrreal: No hyperbole, the worst ramen Ive had in my life. The tonkatsu ramen had bland broth, a fishy taste, and chewy meat. The gyoza was $12.50 for 5 pieces, which were sitting ontop of a weird tomato-like stew and werent good. My husbands spider roll had shell casings inside the sushi, which my husband spit out and put to the side (I provided a picture). We ordered the fried chicken plate with fried rice and vegetables for our kids, and it was terrible. We ate what we could because we were hungry, not because the food was necessarily good. We figured since well be charged for it we might as well eat it. To top it off, our server was short, borderline rude, and not friendly at all. I basically matched her energy throughout our meal. I didnt leave a great tip, mainly because for ~$92, I expected better food and service. I felt robbed enough of the bad food, that the bad service didnt help with me feeling compelled to leave a decent tip.

3 /5 Salman Zindani: We stumbled upon this place when looking to see where we could spend our expiring inkind cash back. The place was pretty slow on a Sunday night and had a cartoon playing on tv. The restaurant in general was dimly lit and relatively moody. Before I go in depth on what we ordered, here’s my verdict and reasoning for the rating: The fish itself seemed like it was of good quality. You may then ask: if that’s the case, why the 3 stars Salman? Service. Service was the reason. Our server and the speed at which we were getting our food was pretty lackluster. And our server, simply wasn’t on top of stuff. She would disappear for long stretches and wouldn’t come back to either check on us or to even take our order in the beginning. For instance, when I started ordering nigiri’s, she had to stop me because while she initially thought, she could remember everything, she realized it would be better to write things down. What a fantastic thought. The chefs were very kind, but slow. We wanted to order another escolar nigiri and potentially more items, but refrained from doing so, just because of how long everything else took. Here’s all that we ordered: - Hama chili: the yellowtail seemed fresh and was a good indication that the fish would be good. The dish itself wasn’t the best hamachiili we’ve had. - Cherry blossom: rice less roll that was better than expected. Here are the nigiri’s we ordered: - Flounder: sweet. Not very chewy - Escolar: buttery, torched but no smoky flavor, good. Top 3. - Hamachi: flat and lacked flavor. Would’ve liked some more ponzu or spice - Saketoro: slightly fishy. Went down very smooth though - Kinemedai: very fresh. Slightly bitter. - Masunosake: also very flat. We won’t order salmon here again. - Otoro: fantastic. Smooth and buttery. Our favorite - Otoro handroll: basic but the fish was spectacular.
