With no disrespect intended, I will assume you are a novice to sushi whose sushi experience consists of a set sashimi meal and some rolls. And if you stick to the meals where all you get is the leftover tuna, white fish, salmon, etc. it's true that Shogun is no better than any other sushi restaurant in the area. But once you graduate to the finer side of sushi, such as sweet prawns, Japanese scallops, real toro, urchin, monk fish liver, and the like, you'll understand why you'll find more native Japanese there than any other Japanese restaurant in the area.

At Shogun, you get what you order. If you get one of those special rolls stuffed with cream cheese, eel sauce, and snowcrab roll, you'll find it no different from any of the other sushi restaurants, and since it has a high reputation, you will probably be disappointed. But if you learn to eat sushi of the highest quality, you'll soon learn that Shogun is the best restaurant in the area.
