Great place for date night or parties of 12 or more. Very clean, comfortable and modern. Check out entire menu, many offerings other than sushi. Friend had baked salmon & said it was delicious. Never had a bad meal at Ponzu and my wife really likes their specialty cocktails. Every restaurant owned and operated by the DiPrima Family is a solid choice. Jimi D's in Aksarben Village and Jackson Street Tavern in the Old Market are awesome as well. Enjoy!
We truly love it there. Always wonderful food and service. The service tonight was exceptional. Thank you.

Kate our server was amazing- sushi menu was extensive plus many other items. We choose Coco Loco Shrimp Roll, Godzilla Roll & Calmari Roll with a side of white rice. Food was served quickly for being made to order freshly. Kate checked back with us several times. We will save room for dessert next time.

Very inexpensive sushi that had a lot of nice qualities. Some of my favorite stuff was included in the roles we had such as cream cheese avocado and a variety of fish and sauces to accentuate the flavor. One thing I was looking at is how spicy the wasabi is. Bad sushi usually has very mild wasabi. This wasabi was quite flavorful and spicy. It is perfectly paired with sushi. my whole family enjoyed the atmosphere and the restaurant. Our two orders of sushi cost about as much as two value meals at McDonald's.

Did not have a great experience this time around. We placed a takeout order and we ended up being really disappointed.First our food was not fully ready when I picked up. Not "not fully ready" as in I had to wait a few for the chefs to finish making it. I mean "not fully ready" as in I was charged, handed my food, then got it home to find out that the host just didn't pack half my order, which he even admitted to on the phone.I went back down to get it cuz I was hungry.The sushi itself really ain't bad. But the Korean Kebabs were just not good. Lazily cooked. (Half seared, half held near a hot pan) you get the idea.So overall, I drove to ponzu twice for just okay food.I would expect a partial refund or something but I just got a "sorry have a nice day"
Fast service over lunch hour, staff are friendly and attentive. In and out in less than 20 minutes. Great place for a quick, enjoyable sushi lunch!Edit: 4 years later and this place is still superb.

The food here is really good. The service might be a tad slow, but made up for it with cozy atmosphere.Their happy hour specials are from 3 to 6pm, they've got a pretty good selection.And, last but not least, let me assure you that this place is really clean… which always gives peace of mind.

We typically order takeout from here. Service is always prompt. Food is very good as well. The atmosphere is light and airy, definitely a good spot for sushi or if you're just in the area.

The fruit sangria cocktail is delish. Had two rolls, the spicy crab roll is def.spicy and veggie roll is good. The spicy edamame was a joke, its smother in tajin powder based. Not top quality I must say, had better elsewhere but other than that the miso soup was my favorite. Its pricey for the quality of food. The service was good, its nice inside.

Fantastic sushi rolls at a great price, even more so during happy hour. Service has always been great every time I visited.
