Rikin DiwanJune 18, 2014Came at 7 on a Friday and it was pretty quiet. The salad with yellow tail is really good. They'll pour hot grape seed oil on it to sear it in front of you right before you devour it!
Joan ParkAugust 13, 2014The Umami Menu will take you through a 2.5 hour long 9-course meal. The only thing I would go back for, though, is the Crispy Okaki Asparagus, which is on the bar menu.
Crispy tuna tartare, edamame lollipops, sweet potato ravioli, wagyu steaks on hot stones, dream roll- The Corcoran GroupOctober 11, 2011This is one of those places you go for a really special occasion, as dining here is an event. Just get the Omakase – with the Sake Pairings, it’s worth the money!
MegMay 10, 2017Not like the old Megu but still very good. Found a lot of vegetarian friendly dishes and the vibe was great!
Mafe Sotillo LairetMay 31, 2017This place is beautiful and the staff is super friendly. Try the kobe beef, tasting menu or omakase
doug jaegerSeptember 10, 2014Kobe filet mignon is the way to go. Split a 6 oz. with your lady. She'll thank you. So will your stomach.- Stefan MallietOctober 17, 2011One of the best tasting menus in the city. Can't go wrong with the crispy asparagus, oriental salad or sliced kobe beef.Their green tea crepe is outstanding.

Andrea De La CruzDecember 30, 2013Beyond our expectations!!!! Superb service! Great food and Drinks!!! A must repeat!!!
- I love this place so much! It's opulent, decadent, dramatic, sexy and theatrical all at the same time! From a sizzling salad to beef with flaming hennessy, the food at MEGU conquers all others! Enj
Crystal ZhengMarch 6, 2014Must have/try sushi or sashimi: wagyu beef & Foie gras, Hamachi, O Toro Tuna, Medai, Scallops, Uni.
Luca DLJanuary 12, 2012Try the MEGU Signature Kobe Beef Slices “Ishiyaki” (that means grilled on a river stone) which arrives at the table still on the stone, good and spectacular- TeeAnje BrightFebruary 20, 2011If you come to Megu, you must try the Kobe Beef "Kagero" Style. Even if you are not a beef lover this dish will change your mind. The flavor is very simple: pure butter. Cooked table side for you.
CaliforniaOctober 14, 2012Try the tasting menu. Kobe beef is exceptionally delicious and melts in your mouth. Sake tasting menu is good as well.
Bobbi BillardApril 5, 2010Order the Blessing Cocktail. Megu means “blessing” in Japanese. There's a huge ice sculpture of Buddha downstairs. Make sure you pour rose petals & water onto him with the wooden ladle & make a wish.
Anabel TeixeiraNovember 11, 2011Very cool place. Crispy shrimp and edamame as an appetizer. Sushi and kobe beef for dinner, and cheese cake and creme brulée for dessert. :)- Barry KayAugust 25, 2012Gorgeous interior, outstanding japanese cuisine served on picture perfect plates. Charming and outstanding service.
Dan ManiociMarch 8, 2012The presentation of the oysters and sashimi sampler are unreal! Check them out.
EmNovember 6, 2010Kobe beef cooked on a hot stone was so tender and melts in your mouth. Pair it with Kanpai! (Bacardi with sake)
Ron GSeptember 9, 2012Megu leaves trash attracting rats every evening, and the slimey, smelly residue every morning. Deelish!
Blair BaxterJuly 8, 2014Did the tasting menu, cool presentation but the poor service, mediocre food, and a huge tab remind me once again don't buy into the hip hype.
- Denise MazzellaFebruary 4, 2011Kobe beef...loved it! The Blessing is a powerful little cocktail too. Restaurant week favorite :)
Emmanuel Gabriel ScottSeptember 1, 2012This has got to be on of my new favorite spots. Um um good! #SimplyAmazing
Lily ChinAugust 21, 2012Never come here, stuff is a hoax and costs a lot of money. If you want American Japanese fusion for a high price please come here. If you want quality Japanese, go to Nobu which is also nearby.
BULLDOG GinMay 7, 2012A gin that's also an aphrodisiac? Call BULLDOG at the bar and let the fun begin.
