"The Saltwater Grill has been a Galveston staple for some time. I was encouraged that the menu has been updated with new items, while preserving some of their best offerings - I swear the Shanghai Delight is laced with Prozac because I'm always happy when I eat it. This time I tried one of their new "naked" offerings, hoping the fish would be allowed to shine. I had the grilled redfish, which was done perfectly - the very thin edges were a little crisp and carmelized but the fish was still moist and flavorful. I did miss the bread - this was one of the few restaurants in town that started with something with substance, so I was quite disappointed when a little crock of crackers appeared instead of bread. The restaurant is very noisy - I was ok hearing my companions but certainly couldn't hear the server well."

"Odered the sushi ?deluxe?. The order came with one tuna nigiri, 3 salmon, 2 yellow tail, and 4 tilapia pieces. I asked the waiter if they meant to include 4 tilapia pieces he informed me that those were actually yellowtail. I guess some peoplebelieve that. I said that I was expecting an assortment of fish since if I wanted tuna, salmon, and yellow tail, I would haveordered the Triple Sushi for less money. He pointed to the menu and informed me that the selection was the chef?s choice.Alrighty then. Defeated by logic, I started consuming the meal. Fish was tough and didn?t taste very fresh. Not sure how thisplace has a 4.4."

"Standard diner, nothing particularly notable about the anesthetics or decor run of the mill in that regard. The staff and owners are what stand out at this establishment. Went there with my two kids and they enjoyed the staff's especially our waitress's hospitality and attention. The family feel of whole experience prompted me to order a vanilla egg cream which I had not had in about 30 years. The one area I would ask management to address is the spartan condition of the restrooms. Pretty minor considering the other factors that make this a great go to place in Bay Ridge."

"Highly Recommended! Scaddabush Italian Kitchen Bar has left an exceptional impression on me with its delectable pasta and pizza offerings. From start to finish, my dining experience was nothing short of delightful, and I couldn't be more satisfied. The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and nice, hanging many antique mirrors creates a wonderful atmosphere to enjoy a fantastic Italian meal with friends or family. But what truly elevated the dining experience was the warm and attentive service of Miss Val. Her hospitality and kindness were unparalleled, and she made sure that our visit was enjoyable. Her recommendations were spot-on, and she ensured that we had everything we needed to savor our meal to the fullest."

"Talk about a meal and a show!! If you haven 't been here you have to try it at least once. This particular Samurai has been here for years. The food is delicious!! They make the rice with garlic butter and then they serve you these two side sauces...I always only get double portions of the shrimp sauce. I think it 's a shrimp-based sauce. I 'll have to ask next time I 'm there. From the moment you walk in to see the friendly face behind the counter, to the table server, runner, and chef it 's an experience you 'll never forget. You can take a date, family, friends, or even go solo. The table is set up in such a way that even if you go solo you won 't be dining alone. I usually order the lunch combo with chicken and shrimp. The meal comes with a side of soup or salad, mushrooms (yum), veggies, chicken or veggie fried rice or you can order good old white rice. The salad has this ginger dressing that is to die for. The soup is delicious as well except that when it 's for lunch you have to pick one or the other (soup or salad). Whichever one you choose trust me you won 't be disappointed. For dinner, you do get both the soup and salad so you get the best of both worlds. Plus it doesn 't matter if it 's lunch or dinner the portions are very hearty. It doesn 't seem like it at first but once you have all of the food on your plate you realize it 's plenty of it. The only downfall is the heat/vapor, and you 'll walk out smelling like you just prepared your meal but you 'll leave happy. As my grandma used to say, Full belly, happy heart."

"We decided to try the restaurant's specialty, the fresh mozzarella served with bread and tomato jam. We made the mistake of ordering two appetizers along with our shared entree, when only one would have been enough. Despite this, I preferred the polenta fries as a vehicle for the mozzarella over the bread. The chicken parmigiana was also delicious."

"Food was good. Aaron was entertaining. Our server was new and it was a big opportunity for improvement. Our food was missed our drinks took longer than it probably should have. We were late to be seated on a Monday night so we didn't eat until almost 9 pm for a reservation at 7:3-7:45. My kids were passed out and barely ate. We were celebrating a birthday. We made the most of it. The check took forever because we were a larger group and the bill wasn't rendered correctly. To be fair the server said it was his first night out of training and we thought he was joking, but it showed. No managerial presence until the end when we were walking out."

"I wouldn't recommend this restaurant at all. They call it Nepalese, but it's just a fancy name for Indian food that I love. There are many excellent Indian restaurants here, but this is not one of them. Firstly, there were no other customers when we got there. Two parties came in after us and we are looked after before us. We expressly told the waitress everything mild. When we ordered a birayani she forgot to tell us until we complained that it is always spicy. We started with an inedible lentil soup. It was cold and salty. We asked for hot tea and she said they had gone out that afternoon. Our chicken tikka was all sauce and very little chicken. We sent it back and told them to add more chicken. The shrimp dish was the same - all sauce and hardly any shrimp. The sauces over the rice were pleasant, but overpriced for how little you got. We enjoyed the starter of Mo MO and the Chana Masala. I love Mango Lassi, but they just poured it out of a 1 gallon container. It was probably pre-made in the supermarket. Don't go here when we have such a large and diverse Indian community with excellent restaurants across the region."

"My wife and I were here a few months ago and decided to return. This was our second visit since a flood devastated the building. We began with a pitcher of Sangria and ordered Chicken with mushrooms and Shrimp stuffed with crab meat. Both entrees were delicious. A salad was served with the meal. The dining room gets quite noisy, but it's worth the noise to enjoy truly outstanding food."

"The service was average and the decor was very nice...but the quality of food was a bit subpar. We had the golden chicken ramen with an extra side of pork belly along with the teriyaki salmon. The ramen was like chicken noodle soup with a thin broth. The egg was overcooked and...the side of pork belly was also overcooked. My Gordon Ramsey senses tell me that for something to be that hot yet that dry, with a rubbery texture where the outside perimeter is darker from uneven cooking..it was thrown in the microwave. (Think of when you cook leftover steak in the microwave for too long. Aside from that, the plate it was served on was just as hot as the side of pork belly that was sitting on it so they were obviously both in the microwave. Anyway, probably one of the top worst ramen bowls that I have had. The salmon teriyaki was good, but not enough for me to forget the disappointment of the ramen. Won't be trying this place again."

"We started with sushi appetizers, enjoyed a cocktail, and ordered hibachi entrées. When we requested water, we were offered a choice between tap and bottled options. While kosher dining can be quite pricey, this is to be expected, and the prices here are comparable to other kosher hibachi restaurants. Plus, you find the same or higher prices for kosher steak elsewhere. It was also nice to see the Mashgichim placing the meat directly on the hibachi grills. Typically, you don’t see the Mashgichim in restaurants, so it was reassuring to know they are actively involved in ensuring the proper handling of your meal. Given that hibachi is so entertaining for children, I hope they consider adding a children's menu. We had to order an adult meal for my child, but the leftovers will definitely be enjoyed tomorrow! Having moved to New Jersey from New York about two years ago, we have pretty high standards when it comes to dining, and I can confidently say that Takara did not disappoint!"

"This is a great place. The atmosphere was nice, the music was cute and the food was delicious. The prices were fair. The staff was friendly and the drinks gave you a buzz but they didnt get you drunk which was great. We got Hibachi chicken and shrimp. Which came with fried rice and noodles, clear soup, salad, and fried shrimp. We also got a Mango Chicken Entre, which came with white rice, salad, and miso soup. For app, we got edamame and salmon rolls and the sushi has to be one of the best I have tasted. For drinks we hot a Mai Tai- Yellow and a Passion Fruit.... something.. at the beginning they were very strong. But we were able to easily get used to it. In regards to COVID guide lines, I felt safe. We were away from people and there are deciders between each booth. 1 year Update- masks are not required and the food and drinks are still amazing"

"I visited Mizzu Asian Bistro on a Thursday evening with colleagues for a work lunch. I was happy to see a variety of menu options and appreciated that hibachi was available at regular tables. The restaurant was fairly empty, which is understandable given the current circumstances, so the service was a bit slow. There was some confusion, as a few people at our table initially received the wrong orders, and some of us ended up with the wrong leftovers by the end of the night. Nevertheless, the food was tasty, the drinks were enjoyable, the portions were generous, and the prices fair. Despite the service hiccups, I would still recommend dining here."

"I stumbled on this place out of good luck. I loved the theming and decor. The staff was perfectly attentive without bothering me once. Everyone was polite and professional. I’ve had a million quesadillas all over this country and this one was remarkably good. The free chips and salsa was flavorful and thick. Check out my other reviews if you think this is fake. I just went in with no expectations and was shocked at how happy I was with every aspect of my experience."

"Taki Sushi is a gem in Washington Park. Our kids live in the area and frequent this place, and wanted to take us there while we were visiting from Cincinnati. It will now be a regular go-to when we visit! The staff is very friendly and our server, Art, was great. It's too bright inside, and could do with some toning-down and warming-up the lighting. For appetizers we ordered the kid's favorite; Garlic Broccoli. It was cooked perfectly and we asked for the extra sauce to be put in a cup to dip into the rest of the dinner because it was that good. We also had the Cucumber Sashimi off the appetizer menu. It was extremely fresh tasting and the cucumber was the perfect compliment to the tuna. The Yellowtail Jalapeño Hamachi was fabulous. I cut up one ring of jalapeño per bite of cod and it was perfect. And I never miss a chance to order Miso Black Cod if it's on a menu. This version was executed perfectly and presented with nicely cooked asparagus. We followed up with four different sushi rolls. Every single one was so fresh and delicious. The sake and the Rose wine were both delightful as well. Two other great aspects of this place is that they are open till 10pm and reasonably priced! This is actually a 4.5 star review if I could do that."

"I completely understand that management doesn’t have full control over how customers behave, but the young male waitstaff was lingering around their booth, practically engaging in lap dances with these women. There was no effort from management to address this situation; instead, the staff seemed to encourage it. I hope the owners or management take note of this review and take appropriate action. We will not be coming back. As for kid-friendliness, this place is definitely NOT suitable for children, given the customers shouting obscenities and the waitstaff's inappropriate behavior."

"The food at this restaurant is excessively priced for the quality offered. My husband's soup portion was far from a proper serving. I ordered the seaweed salad, which was dry and lacked flavor, while the spring rolls were overly greasy and fell apart when the waiter delivered them. My husband ordered a drink, but it took so long to arrive that we eventually had to cancel the order because we had finished our meals. The sushi we received was cold, and considering we had ordered tempura, it should have been at least at room temperature. Overall, we were very disappointed and will not be returning."

"I arrived at 7 PM on a weekday with a group of 12 for an event, and I must say, the service was commendable. The food matched the pictures perfectly, and everyone enjoyed their selections. Parking was convenient, and the ambiance was decent, though it could use an update—it definitely doesn’t deserve a five-star rating just yet. It would be great if there were a second floor for more dining space and restroom facilities. Additionally, the outside could benefit from better signage. Overall, I would definitely consider returning."

"Jack Astors is almost always a good time, but this is especially so with this location. Lovely staff who were really easy to get along with, a super cool vibe for a chain restaurant and incredible food. Probably some of the best saucy chicken tenders I’ve ever had, no joke.They also had little arcade machines that you could play on free of charge. This location is definitely more of a party location, so if you’re looking for a restaurant that’s quaint and quiet you’re likely gonna want to avoid this one. We didn’t mind it and actually enjoyed it, just a heads up for anyone wanting a more chilled out experience.All in all a really good experience. Was told our table was going to be ready in twenty minutes and got it within that time range with no issues. Very organized, helpful staff. Would come here again in a heartbeat"
