User Reviews of Ba Sho Japanese Restaurant

Yelp.com Review - by Paul F.

4.0 of 5 stars. I went here last night and it was just better than pretty good. The service was off and the lobster roll wasn't nearly as good. The baked fish appetizer saved the night.

Yelp.com Review - by Ty D.

4.0 of 5 stars. This is why America is the greatest country on Earth. I fly 2,000 miles from my semi-home in San Francisco, get lost driving out to the strip malls of Columbus's northern suburbs, and am able to find...

Yelp.com Review - by Matt W.

4.0 of 5 stars. At great little sushi place that you barely know it is there. Both times I have eaten there, the food was great. The waiters were very nice. But what makes this place different from the others is the...

Yelp.com Review - by Caroline C.

4.0 of 5 stars. I love this place but the food just doesn't agree with me. I have no idea why because I don't have problems with other Japanese restaurants. It's not that I get sick it just... doesn't agree with me....

Well above average

I do like BaSho's but there are a few things that knock it down from a 5. The first are the lack of any lunch hours (dinner only.) There is also a lack of good Hiyayako, she said they didn't HAVE any? The last...

Dissapointment

I read the reviews on citysearch and had high expectations for Ba-Sho. Sushi was sub-par, service was average. I could name 5-10 other places in c-bus I would go for sushi/Japanese other than Ba-Sho.

Best Japanese food... Outside of Japan

This is one of the best Japanese restaurants in the state of Ohio. Every major city I go to I make sure i try the japanese food and this is one of the best.

Yelp.com Review - by Cat W.

4.0 of 5 stars. I have gone to many different sushi places in Columbus, and this one has the best traditional sushi I've found. Excellent quality and taste without pretense. We go there as often as we can find the...

Great Food, Rude Staff

The food at Ba Sho is very good and authentic. The sushi has always been fresh, and the gyoza is amazing. I liked it better before 2002 when they still had all of the authentic japanese crafts on the walls and...

Basho is better with new owner.

I liked Basho from the first time I ate there in 2002. The previous owner was a hoot. She was rude, obnoxious, loud, and scolded the workers in Japanese. I was always a little scared of her. The new owners are...

Great Food, Rude Employees

My husband and I love to go out to eat, but now that we have a small child we have to get food to go. Ba-Sho used to be our second-favorite Japanese restaurant in town. They have fabulous sushi and udon noodle...

Great little place!

I'm actually disappointed that Otani and Restaurant Hama received better scores and Bento Go-Go is rated the same. I found the service to be extremely friendly and the food fantastic. The moment you walk in,...

BA Sho is the Best

I may have only discovered the joys of eating japanese food for a few years but I do know one thing, THIS IS THE BEST I'VE HAD IN COLUMBUS! Don't let these other reviews fool you either, the hostess is a very...

great food but...

The best sushi in town hands down. Service is good except the owner who is quite rude at times. I remember we had a party of 8 having sushi and as soon as we were done eating (while we were talking and...

Great food, mean hostess

I like this food a lot but they are set in how they work. The hostess is a little rough but once past her the food makes up for the first impression. Great spicy tune rolls, some of the best in town. The place...

unfriendly host

the restaurant is pretty small. It is not good for large group. You'll either get kicked out from the restaurant for bringing too many people or you have to wait awfully long to get seated.They don't take...

Best Sushi in Town

I love Basho. As a person who lived in Japan I can confirm that this is about as close to the real thing as you're going to get here in Columbus. I guess it's the tight seating arrangement and the hackneyed...

Not Consistent

One day I had aweful sushi at Basho...Put aside taste of sushi, it didn't look like sushi. It was just a piece of raw fish and smashed rice ball... The other day, I had great assorted sashimi. It was great...
