59 Salt Lake City Area Restaurants to Love This Valentine's Day

The first step in sake making is polishing (milling) the rice to remove the outer layer of each grain. The higher the polish, the higher the grade. · Ginjo grade - 60% or less rice remaining. · Daiginjo grade - 50% or less rice remaining. Junmai is the Japanese word meaning "pure rice." Junmai sake is brewed using only rice, water, yeast, and koji

Japanese Whiskies

Nikka Coffey Grain WhiskeyUSD 14.99

A blended whiskey from Suntory's 3 distilleries (Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Chita). This whiskey is adored for its oak, honey, vanilla, and ginger notes. Its subtly sweet and spicy finish leaves you wanting more

This tart, refreshing cocktail highlights the distinct flavors of the Holystone Tsunami Shochu. Stirred with yuzu juice, sweet orange juice, finished with soda water, and a twist of orange
Holystone Tsunami ShochuUSD 9.99
1.5 oz pour. Shochu is a liquor that has been well-loved in Japan since the 16th century. Tsunami shochu is a "Mugi shochu" so it is made from koji, rice, and barley. Tsunami Restaurant and Holystone Distilling are proud to produce this shochu using the same methods utilized in the 16th century on the island of Kyushu, including growing and cultivating the koji, and a dual fermentation process. Tsunami shochu is a once distilled, or "honkaku shochu", and is unfiltered to preserve the true flavor of the ingredients

The lighting was terrible on the side we sat on. Like overhead spotlights. Water tasted chemically like something needed to be cleaned. Service was nice. Food did take quite awhile, took around 45 minutes for 2 rolls and some tempura veggies. I had the fire breathing dragon and it was pretty room temp by the time it got to us. Not the best, but not the worst experience.

We dined on Valentine’s Day and the restaurant was busy. The food was amazing and the service was on point. Their sushi and purple haze saki is so good that we’ve never tried anything else. We will always return for sushi and ambiance.

Showed up early for our reservation, watched 2 walkins come in after and get seated before I was seated. Table I was sat at was broken and wobbly. Wasnt served wasabi or ginger with sushi rolls. Asked for dipping sauces for rolls and it wasn’t brought to the table until 2/4 rolls we ordered were finished. Food was good but that was about the only thing that was good during the visit. Compliments to the chefs for not making the experience completely miserable.

We had a very good time even with our little grandson who was very busy. We had a great table that accommodated all of us in a fairly secluded area. The food was very good and our servers were excellent and very attentive to us.

We had terrible service. We frequently have business lunches here and today our service was pretty terrible. The wait staff would disappear. We waited a very long time to place our orders, food took longer than expected, we had to ask for refills and waited at least 20 minutes after we were finished eating for our bill. I had to eventually ask the host to find our waitress because our lunch took over 2 hours even though there were only a few other tables in the restaurant and we needed to leave.
