Better arrive an hour prior to closing-- or you may be turned away

by mb54

I have been a repeat customer for the past 2.5 years, frequenting at least once every 2 months. Usually the service, food, and atmosphere have been excellent. I was very disappointed to arrive on the Sunday the evening before Labor Day at 8:20pm and was told I would not be seated because they planned on closing at 9:00pm that evening. I noted that the open sign was still present and the front door was wedged open. The staff member just shook her head and said they were closed (even though there were 5 tables seated and plenty of tables empty). It's disappointing to know that 40 minutes prior to the restaurant's closing is too little time to seat and serve a party of 2. I just know that I will not be returning to Moshi Moshi.

• Pros: good sushi
• Cons: poor service, staff itching to leave right at closing time

I love this place!

This is some of the better sushi I've had in Philly. The place is really cute (downstairs; upstairs, not so much). The service is fast and very friendly, and the food is well worth the price.

Moshi is perfect for a date or a quick dinner with friends. I would highly recommend it.

• Pros: Everything!
• Cons: Don't sit upstairs- no atmosphere.

bangin' sushi

by manders318

never had a bad sushi experience here... we really like the spicy scallop handroll. enjoy the private booth areas on the first floor. ambiance lacks as the inside is a little too dim for my tastes and i don't like brightly lighted places. we always find something new on the menu to try out. apps are so-so. stick with the sushi menu. sushi chef always personally thanks us when we leave the restaurant, which is nice.

• Pros: good sushi, personal service, private booth areas
• Cons: ambience (dim lighting)
