In 1852, Matthew Perry, father of the USA Steam Navy, was assigned a diplomatic mission by American President Millard Fillmore to open Japanese ports to the west trade. The Admiral sailed four steam ships from Norfolk, Virginia to Japan. Along that trip the salt water stained the metal ships black. At that time, the Japanese had never seen such machines and referred to them as the “black ships”. This is where we take our name. Perry didn’t just open up Japan but all of Asia. This fateful meeting of the East and West cultures plays out in our menu.

    We had a great time when we had dinner there. All of our food choices were very good and tasty. I think people have to know that it is different than the traditional waitstaff situation. Our server was great and got our drinks and food to us timely. The food is so fresh it comes out when its ready so your bowl might come out before your bao. Which was great because we were hungry and it was all delicious. There are individual tables and communal tables. Ours was a communal one and it was fun.

    We had a fantastic time here! The drinks were delicious, and the bartender really knew how to keep the fun going. We celebrated our Valentine's Day at this spot, and the happy hour and menu prices were very affordable. We can't wait to come back! The music definitely catered to millennials, and we sang our hearts out. Each of us enjoyed two drinks, which totaled $34 per person. We're looking forward to happy hour and grabbing some tasty bites next time!

    I was skeptical in trying this cause I noticed it wasn’t very busy, especially for valentines night. I was mistaken!! We were quickly sat upon checking in, very accommodating with a table request for my daughter and I. Our server Berny was by far the best!! His recommendations, his attitude, his attention was all top tier. I could not ask for anything more. He made our first experience very special. We will be returning. Thank you Brent and thank you Black Ship for hosting us!
