This popular Japanese restaurant will have to do battle with Kikugawa on the Hennepin Bridge for local sushi bragging rights. But there is no denying Origami's excellence, as evidenced by the many awards the restaurant has collected -- for sushi and everything else. One look at the extensive menu will tell you what to expect once you enter this smart, sleek venue, located inside a preserved 19th-century stone building at the edge of the Warehouse District. The menu reads like a seafood and vegetable glossary, yet the modest prices allow you to indulge yourself to your heart's content. There is much more to enjoy, as well, on the lunch and ala carte dinner menus. Mackerel, octopus and other delicacies of the deep join chicken, pork and even a specially styled filet mignon. The full bar offers a wide selection of sakes, domestic and imported beers (including Japanese, of course) and a very respectably priced wine list. Like any good sushi place, Origami has many loyal followers, so make reservations during the week or get on the waiting list on weekends. -- John Sharpe

Taylor Young's Review
tayloryoung - 03/22/1999
It is definately my favorite restaurant. The food is absolutely delicious, the waiters and waitresses are very nice and the guys at the sushi bar are very cool. If I were you, I would go with my favorite things, the Caterpiller with rice, avacato, and Water Eel along with other kinds of sushi and Tempura/Green Tea Ice Cream!

kakiefitzsimmons - 03/18/1999The Sushi is great. The chefs are good about making reccomendations for those who are less experienced in this art.
Tracy McCracken's Review
tracymccracken - 03/06/1999Our friend from Japan took us there a couple of months back. I had never tried sushi before. My husband is not too big on seafood, but found the soup delicious. We had fun and really were able to relax and enjoy this special treat. I found the sushi very, very good and would recommend this place to friends. The fact that they also serve Japanese beer was nice. The servings were generous and the service was nice.
The dining area is narrow and we went during a busy time, but we were seated within 15 - 20 minutes.Tracy & George McCracken's Review

larrym - 03/04/1999Extra special sushi-best in metro area. Chefs are very friendly. A little small and can be crowded due to strong business/popularity. Up stairs bar crowded without enough seating.
