The food was out of world!! We got the teriyaki beef bento boz with the fried tempura flavor was amazing beef was tender. Definitely one of my new and favorite spots in Santa cruz. Josh our server was amazing we will definitely be back!!

Ordered sushi (orange blossom and crunch rolls) and the Tonkotsu ramen, along with a side of edamame.
Service staff was friendly but the restaurant was understaffed and it took a long time for food to be served.
Presentation was lacking in general, but the food was overall good.
For the ramen, the noodles and chashu were good but the broth wasn't as rich as I hoped (but still it was good).

My friends and I had a wonderful dinner on Sunday night. Jessica, our server, was very friendly and attentive. 5 stars for Jessica!!! She took great care of all guests even though she appeared to be the only server. All of our food was excellent. Bathroom was nice & clean. I would be happy to return on my visit to SC. Thank you Jessica!!!

Refined and unique yet inexpensive authentic Japanese cuisine I would most certainly recommend. I had the Teriyaki steak/ vegetable tempura Bento, and my girlfriend ordered the Teriyaki chicken dinner, both complete with a salad and miso soup. We also decided on a Soft-shell crab appetizer, not to mention a small sake. The steak flavor alone was enough to write home. The texture of the appetizer was incredible, and the crab was very tasty. All in all, a nicely presented meal with a lot of value! Shogun is a favorite spot, and my go-to for traditional Japanese fare.

I love sushi. A client suggested to eat at Shogun. I tried the shrimp tempura roll. Also ordered the Gyoza. Yumm. 2rolls and appetizer were $31. Great deal. Didnt get a chance to take pics of the menu, next time!

Best Sushi in the world. Very generous portions. Today all the cooked food was old. No adjustments made. They blamed us for letting it sit too long. Never again
