About us

Shô-Dan is the product of the friendship of three young chefs, passionate about cuisine and art. Loaded with talent, they use the artistic baggage and years of experience in the kitchen to make your outing at one of their restaurants an unforgettable event.

The à la carte menu at Shô-Dan is very elaborate, creative and ideal for those who want to take a chance. Among the specialties are the succulent blueberry sushi, Blue Shadow and the sushi pizza, served on a bed of rice with spicy mayonnaise and smoked salmon. Many different creations are offered, and change every week. The plates are presented in the traditional Japanese aesthetic and reflect the artistic talent of the chefs. A warm service is offered by a young and dynamic team that is always smiling.

To distinguish itself from other sushi restaurants, Shô-Dan accepts special orders. The chefs will try to satisfy your every wish. It is also possible and quite gratifying, to add a perfectly matched wine to your sushi selection. Both establishments are spacious and can welcome over 150 people. The large sushi bar surrounds the chefs and allows you to see them at work. During your visit, you will immerse yourself into the authentic culinary spirit of Japan.

The yellowtail sashimi with jalapeno & soy sauce was exactly the kick I needed after the Reds game. I am definitely the most interesting thing you will find in Cincinnati tonight, so if you are quick enough to recognize a good catch, come say hello while I am still here.

Good place for some sushis. The sashimi could've been tastier.

Wakame salad & fusion sushi were amazing. But the fish in sashimi was below average & the pieces were falling apart. Service was good.

The sushi & sashimi are very good. Tempura & black cod are okay but not remarkable. Overall, the food is good, & price is not bad. The sushi & sashimi platters are excellent. Service is prompt. The restaurant seems very clean, & it's nice that they have a pianist playing soft music in the background. Very busy place, so I would recommend making a reservation.

Sho-Dan, in my opinion, offers some of, if not the best, sushi in the city. This is a place highly frequented for business lunches & for good reason. The quality of the fish is always incredibly fresh & the rolls are expertly prepared. They offer very unique types of rolls which avoid the use of cheap fillers like tempura & spicy mayo, & you consistently get excellent cuts of fish. I highly recommend every roll I've tried on the menu (which by now is almost everything), but I have to say that the lawyer is my favourite, a very unique roll. This is not your traditional Japanese sushi dining experience (ie. This is not a place that focuses on sashimi & basic maki rolls, although they can be ordered), but the specialty rolls are truly out of this world & justify their price. Highly recommend this place for a nice sushi experience. I've been here for dinner & lunch & had excellent experiences for both services.

La nourriture est toujours aussi délicieuse. La qualité est toujours au rendez-vous depuis de nombreuses années. Le service est courtois. Je recommande l'assiette de Sashimis.

You get what you pay for, & this is a downtown fixture for the sashim-i or futomaki-lover in you. Reserve if you expect a table in the Thu-Sun corridor, especially during the high season (i.e. summer/autumn). Expect more American traffic with recent declines in the Canadian dollar. Nice central location with good service. Enjoyed the susji/sashimi/maki "Boat Platter."
