Came 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!

The 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

Not like the old Megu but still very good. Found a lot of vegetarian friendly dishes and the vibe was great!

This 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!

One 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.

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

Kobe filet mignon is the way to go. Split a 6 oz. with your lady. She'll thank you. So will your stomach.

Very cool place. Crispy shrimp and edamame as an appetizer. Sushi and kobe beef for dinner, and cheese cake and creme brulée for dessert. :)

If 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.

Try the tasting menu. Kobe beef is exceptionally delicious and melts in your mouth. Sake tasting menu is good as well.

Try 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

Order 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.
Barry KayAugust 25, 2012
Gorgeous interior, outstanding japanese cuisine served on picture perfect plates. Charming and outstanding service.

Wowowow! Want to make the night worthwhile? Get the Kobe beef cooked a stone!

The wagyu steak was amazing!

Very tasty and theatrical tasting menus.
EmNovember 6, 2010
Kobe beef cooked on a hot stone was so tender and melts in your mouth. Pair it with Kanpai! (Bacardi with sake)
Jonavennci DivadAugust 8, 2011
Megu is beautiful, the bar upstairs is great, the atmosphere amazing

Stunningly beautiful! A total visual and taste experience!
Blair BaxterJuly 8, 2014
Did 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.
Ron GSeptember 9, 2012
Megu leaves trash attracting rats every evening, and the slimey, smelly residue every morning. Deelish!

Creme brûlée TO DIE FOR

A gin that's also an aphrodisiac? Call BULLDOG at the bar and let the fun begin.

Never 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.

Tuna and avocado is delicious ...

Japanese Owner! Nice design!!

More about the eye candy than the food, and it'll be the most expensive eye candy you've ever had. $135 for a sushi dinner for one, and I didn't even pig out.

Kobe beef...it will transport you to another planet!
