"The food, beverages and service were excellent, and our table in the back looked into the garden...too bad it was a little chilly to dine outside. The only drawback was the noise level as there does not appear to be any soft surfaces to reduce the noise. We were seated next to a table of 6 or 7 and they were having lively conversation with lots of laughs. Nice folks but we were not unhappy when they finished. Reina was a good value and we'll go again when we come back to Frederic."

"we go to the Thai food center in the city. the food is delicious and its quality is consistent before place. we have been regular for over a year and still discover new food on the menu. They are very aware of the nutritional restrictions and can adapt almost everything on the menu. they tend to skip on protein, so they expect that they have a measly striping huh in their red curry. we end up ordering extra meat, but we should not have to. that means that our go to’s are the curry powders fried rice, the bark fried rice, the pad thai or our new fav the yellow curry (not included; strange)side note, they have free delivery and are really efficient. use it."

"Sushi was so good! Have several Vegan/Vegetarian friendly options! Customizable too! I ordered Yammy Roll with Cream Cheese Added. My daughter ordered Firecracker Roll, and did Shrimp Tempura instead of Crab. Its her favorite! The Miso Soup was SOOOO good and soothing in this cold weather! We ordered the Agadashi Tofu with No Bonito Flakes (fish skin flakes), because Im vegetarian. And again, it was so delicious. They have a wide variety of drinks, from cocktails to Flavored Sake, to Ramune flavored soda. Overall, definitely my go to sushi spot!"

"We 're regular customers at Sushi Kushi San3 for a reason! All the food is fantastic consistent each time we go, and the staff is knowledgeable prompt. Presentation of the meals is also very nice and Insta worthy. They care about the small details and it shows. If ordering take out, the containers are prepared very carefully with Scotch tape holding items in place that usually fly around in the car (like soy sauce). We take friends and family here all the time! Don 't hesitate to do the same! Note: We usually try to go during less-popular hours to avoid the crowd."

"Ebisu is a great sushi restuarant that needs to find itself. The menu is over the top huge (which usually scares me)but the sushi/sashimi selection was excellent. The service was slow to start but once our waitress was engaged, she was right on. The atmosphere was quite and clean. We tried a variety of sashimi and nigiri, all of which was fresh and delicious. Our favorites were the o toro, salmon belly, hamachi belly, and monk fish liver a rare find!. If you're a sushi/sashimi purist, then you'll appreciate this place."

"My colleagues and I had reservations at 12 noon and were seated straight away. As the Burmese restaurant is in the area, we really looked forward to this experience. While we were in no hurry the restaurant was. Drinks were ordered and they urged to have a meal order at the same time. We wait to order the food until the drinks have been brought to us. We ordered the Burmese beef and goat stew as well as the Moh Hin Ga (fish noodle soup). The sauces on the meat stews were good, but not spectacular! The stew was definitely not tender. If you like tough meat then these dishes are for you. In addition, the Moh Hin Ga lacked taste and in the words of my colleagues: "I would not order it again". Also soft drinks and iced tea and refilled for free. Given the rush and subpar experience, won't be returning. Given their great Yelp reviews, it seems like there are plenty of customers out there who like it. Maybe we only visited them on a bad day or the normal cook wasn't around that day ..."

"I never really find many sushi boat restaurants anymore (but a similar concept is being spread with kura with their conveyor system), but this one in south san jose is still one if the traditional sushi boat restaurants you'd find in the mid 2000's to mid 2010's! You can choose to sit around the sushi boats or sit at a booth as you wish. Like all other sushi boat restaurants, you grab little plates of sushi and depending on the plate it was served on, that was the price. Prices of sushi on the boats ranged from $4.30 to $10. On a lunch day like this, not too many sushi were on the boats unfortunately... maybe it might be more popular at dinner or weekends.If the sushis on the boat dont appeal too well, there are many more options available through their huge menu! There are teriyaki plates to bento boxes to even a unique burrito sushi roll style dish! I ordered a bento box and the beef tasted pretty good minus the sauce which felt flat. It came with soup and salad and rice as well as a orange and dumpling! The main highlight of the bento box though was the tempura! It was really crispy and well breaded and fried! I loved the sauce it came with as well! $20Service was very minimal and most interaction i had was just the payment as soon as i was done. But the place seemed to be well staffed and got around to anyone needing refills, etc.Overall it was a pretty good experience! Although the bento box kinda felt a little overpriced..."

"Small place, pretty plain inside. Mostly open area with tables and a sushi barCame in and was asked all you can eat or regular menu. Wasn't sure so they gave me both. Looked them over and decided to go with all you can eatThey do the ordering in rounds here, and you can do up to 4 rounds. They don't limit you but have Recommendations ofn3 rolls and 20 nigiri a round. They also have the standard AYCE rules about charging full price for unfinished items and riceOrdered 2 rolls and 8 nigiri to start. The Japanese lasagna baked roll is called crawfish over cheese and was good. Nice take on a classic. Also got the Tex mex roll and it was good but not as spicy as I'd hoped. Nigiri was good, fresh but small. Had all the usual suspects, tuna, salmon, yellowtail etc. I like more fish than rice and was opposite here but very tasty and freshFor round 2 I tried the shrimp tempura and tempura bananas. Both were excellent. You get 2 shrimps with the AYCE but was very light and tasty. Banal was really good and was my dessert. I only made it through 2 rounds. Service was a mixed bag. Server was friendly and very helpful. Answered all my questions and brought food with a smile. Only issue was he spent as much time making out with the hostess as waiting on tables. There was 3 tables while I was there, and we spent a lot of time waiting while they passionately made out, loudly kissing. I've been young and in love so I get it but was weird for sureI'd definitely come back"

"I am completely appalled and infuriated by my recent experience at Ruka Asian Fusion Sushi Lounge, a choice I now regret entirely and vow never to repeat. We ordered General Tso's Chicken and Sesame Chicken, hoping for at least a decent version of these classic dishes. Instead, what we received was a culinary disaster. The dishes were alarmingly lacking in authentic flavor, turning what should have been a savory meal into a bland and tasteless disappointment. The texture was shockingly soggy, something that has no place in a respectable kitchen. With a mix of anger and disgust, I strongly advise you to avoid Ruka Asian Fusion Sushi Lounge. This experience was not just disappointing; it was a blatant insult to anyone who values quality food."

"This place was a treat for an anniversary dinner for me and my wife. She had never had Teppanyaki (Hibachi) so I had to show her. The restaurant was easily located, and has good parking. The decor was fair, and as expected. Hosts were friendly, and our waiter greeted us and took our drinks and appetizer order. Our chef was the highlight. Typical teppanyaki flair and gimmicks, but very well done. My wife had a blast. We ordered some sushi, and the steak and shrimp (hibachi) dinner, and the seafood combo (hibachi) dinner. The chef cooked it well, and cooked it quick. The steak portion was a bit small and thin, and more of a medium well than medium rare as ordered, but very good in the end. I regret not getting the chateaubriand. Their soup included with the meal was incredible. Fried rice and the veggies also were well seasoned and cooked. Unfortunately while the chef was performing, the waiter ran off with my soup and salad before I was done. Big disappointment. Overall, we cannot wait to return and try more food. They have an impressive selection of sushi that I look forward to exploring in the future."

"Very pleasing experience, nice clean place, happy courteous wait staff, ultra fast service, what more could you ask for? Sushi came out less than 5 min after I ordered. I was in and out in 30 min at 7pm. Bill was 30 bucks. No drinks just 3 rolls. Loved the tuck and roll roll, it’s the fried one with soft shell crab and spicy tuna and asparagus. So good! The yellowtail naturo(sp? it’s the cucumber wrapped roll with Kani on top. Good refreshing no rice roll. Last was Miami roll had mango, couldn’t really taste it the mango but still a good roll. Would definitely go back just for the quickness and happy wait staff. No complaints here."

"For traditional authentic Japanese restaurants in the area, this place is not bad. We have been patrons to this restaurant on and off for over 10 years, we don’t go very often but this is really the only place in town that serves authentic Japanese with a full menu, and not one of those fusion sushi wannabe ramen places around town. The reason we don’t go very often is because the service is very unpredictable, I would say 50/50 you will get prompt service and the other half, you could wait 15 to 20 minutes just standing there with a reservation and the restaurant only at 80% occupancy. You could also wait at least 30-40 minutes for your appetizer and another 30 for on trays. In other words, easily a two hour meal where 80% of that is just waiting. There are 2 servers, 1 sushi chef, 1 busboy, and this guy who answers the phone sometimes and spends a long time chatting with patrons but does nothing else. This is on a weekend. So what we figured out after all of these years, is don’t go during the weekend if you don’t have the time to waste, if the restaurant is busy, look at the number of order tickets at the sushi bar and how many tables have been served, you need to order the right combination of dishes in order to get them faster. Sushi is fast, but not when there are 10-15 tickets ahead of you. The price is downtown price, more than the burbs for sure. The quality of the food is Ok, compare to the same type of restaurant in Japan, they will get about 3 stars only but for the US, 4 star is good. Most of the dishes to me are a little under flavored, especially the nagasaki champon and Curry, the Sukiyaki is one pot style, so you cannot really choose what to eat when and how well to cook each item. But at least it is better than the pre-cooked style over rice. I still prefer the traditional way better, not many places in the US has that now. I would recommend this place if you are downtown since this is it anyway and you have not spent any extensive amount of time in Japan, because if you have, it would make you miss visiting Japanese even more."

"Ended up eating here by accident, the place we attempted to dine at moved to an upstairs location and I wasnt able to carry my stroller up a steep and narrow staircase, so we went across to Takara and we were very happy we did. The seaweed salad was the best I have ever had! The sushi tasted very fresh and the Thai Basil Rice with Shrimp was so tasty. I would definitely visit this place again."

"My husband and I have been here many times. We especially like their roti canai, which is great. Our experience has usually been great but the reason for lower rating today is that I feel cheated by them. We were just 2 people and yet they decided to add 22% tip to our bill on their own in the electronic system and the waiter sneeked the itemized bill quickly so I couldn’t question him. The waiter who served us was not attentive at all and took several minutes to take our orders or to pay attention to us while we waved our hands at him as he said the kitchen was closing in 7 min so we wanted to add 1 more item before they closed. I would still have tipped them well if I was given the fair chance to add a tip of my choice. However, adding tip without asking us seems unethical to me given that they have not mentioned anywhere on their menu that a standard tip is added to the final check for any party size. I’m not sure if this was the waiter being sneeky or the restaurant but we were disappointed."

"This is a lovely old world Italian restaurant that reminds of another time. It was a snowy day and the restaurant wasn't crowded for lunch, but the food was great. The bread was fresh and delicious. The homemade minestrone was light and fragrant. The shrimp were excellent. It was my girlfriend's birthday, and our waiter brought a delicious dessert with a message in chocolate on his own initiative. We will come back in any case."

"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."

"The manager at Dokyo Dauntaun greeted us in a very rude manner. We had originally made a reservation for 8 people, but three of them could not make it. I called twice that day to inform them that we would be a party of five instead. The manager was extremely rude, arguing that we would need to pay a $20 no-show fee for the guests who did not come. Despite us being physically present, she insisted on the fee until finally agreeing to waive it just this once. Despite the restaurant being mostly empty on a Sunday night, she seated us in the dark back room next to the restroom instead of at our reserved table. After one drink, we asked for the check and left to dine elsewhere. We will not be returning to Dokyo Dauntaun due to the unreasonable and unprofessional treatment we received from this manager."
"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!"
