Chiyoda Sushi Bến Thành has a beautiful atmosphere, attentive staff, and good food overall. The service was excellent, and everyone was friendly and welcoming throughout the meal. That said, I didn't feel the seafood was as fresh as it could have been. It was still enjoyable, but for a sushi restaurant I expected a higher level of freshness. My biggest concern, however, was the condition of the ceiling. Once I looked up, I noticed what appeared to be a significant mold problem. Had I seen it when I first walked in, I likely would have chosen to dine somewhere else. Beyond being unsightly, mold can pose a serious health risk to both customers and employees if left unaddressed. This restaurant has a lot of potential, and I hope management addresses the ceiling issue as soon as possible. With better attention to maintenance and consistently fresh seafood, this could be an outstanding dining experience.
