Tenzan, on the Upper West Side, has been a Japanese cuisine staple for nearly 20 years. The sushi, for the most part, has always been solid, and the service is both respectful and great. We have dined here dozens of times over the years. This establishment is definitely one of the better midtier Japanese restaurants in the area.
