We've eaten at Shinano a handful of times. The sushi is decent- nothing great, but edible.Overall, handy for a Saturday night last minute resort when you can't get in anywhere else.... The interior is rather minimalistic, atmosphere somewhat dreary- but oh well... So- we walk in with our two children.As we are waiting to be seated- the hostess looks at... More

This was my first "sushi" experience - went to the Shinano because it was recommended by several friends. Our son who is a sushi fanatic was truly impressed as was I. Everything was fresh and expertly prepared and I will be coming back. We enjoyed many of the restaurants offerings and all were delicious but my favorite was the Volcano... More

I have been going to this family run Japanese Restaurant for a long time and its always one of the best Sushi places around. The decor is a little boring and there isnt much atmoshpere, but the Owners are always there with a smile (father,mother, daughter) and the servers have all been there a long time as well. Nothing is... More

The service here has always been outstanding. We have been customers since they were located in Richmond. The food is wonderful. The atmosphere is very quiet and relaxing. I often take visiting business guests here because I can always count on their staff to be professional and the food to be very good. My favorite dish is negimayaki. Their tempura... More

We went here for a mid-week quick dinner and were pleasantly surprised. Other reviews go into more detail, and everything from reviews in 2011 remains accurate. Excellent, friendly staff, fresh, authentic food, and patronized by Japanese people. Service was quick (it was a Wednesday) and the miso soup was the best my husband (who travels frequently) has ever had. We... More

During our annual trip to the Cleveland area, we drove past this place a few times in Summer 2011 on the way to the farmers market in Solon. So this year, we were very hungry but reasonably pleased with just about everything. Our evening meal order included 2 combo tempura bento boxes with chicken and shrimp; Yaki Soba; Aparagus Roll;...

Shinano's has the best Sushi in the Cleveland area. My friends and I make the long trip there 5-6 times a year (it's a little out of our way-45 minutes-, but well worth the drive). Their volcano rolls are to die for! The staff is welcoming and attentive. They always make us feel like friends when we come in. I... More

This place used to be located in Richmond Hts and while service was friendly and attentive, you couldn't help but think the decor could be updated...and then they moved. The decor is basic and adequate, but more importantly is that in this day and age it is a rarity to find a restaurant that you can actually have a conversation... More

Hands down the BEST JAPANESE FOOD in CLEVELAND! Before I go on, I'll sum up WHY right now: quality & freshness of ingredients, expert & accurate preparation, and friendly interactive service with a smile. Oh, and if you want that lame and overdone, overhyped "Asian Fusion" stuff, go elsewhere! Shinano is best for patrons who appreciate and enjoy TRADITIONAL Japanese... More

Hand down the best Japanese restaurant in Cleveland area. I give Shinano a 5 star. We have to go there every other month for my wife to get her fix. We have been going to Shinano more than fifteen years since they are in their old Wilson Mill address. We are a little lost when they are in between move.... More
