"My initial thought was the restaurant was very inviting and had great interior decor!We ordered a variety of rolls and hibachi chicken. The food was delicious, absolutely no complaints there.This brings me to the service.From the moment we stepped through the door we felt rushed. We were questioned when our whole party would be there despite the restaurant being empty. Immediately after we finished our meal, a male employee (I’m assuming a manager) came up to our table and stated “sorry to break up the meeting but we need to flip this table”. I understand needing the table, HOWEVER, it could have been stated in a different manner. This manager could have just offered us to move outside as there were tables/seats available. We were actually going to order another round of drinks. Very rude and unprofessional considering this restaurant isn’t cheap and we spent a good amount here.Another warning is this restaurant does not split the bill and they will not run more than 4 credit cards and when they DO run credit cards the bill has to be split evenly across all 4. Very inconvenient for the consumer."

Sushi was good, chicken was a little dry. Nice place with great atmosphere and service.

Food was great. The sushi rolls were priced reasonably and large enough to be worth the price.

Our rice was too salty. We sent it back and it was good, but I felt it should have been taken off our bill. We waited around for it and just didn't seem like it was good customer service.

I absolutely enjoyed the decor, food, and service! The selection of dishes was fantastic, and the soft shell crab spring rolls were my favorite. I didn't get to try the sushi this time, so I will definitely make sure to sample it on our next visit. View menu

This was our first time here. The atmosphere was nice, the food was great and our waitress was super friendly. My sons loved the seafood ramen and the crappy joe was very good. It’s great to have a sushi bar close to home. We will definitely be back soon!!!

We’ve visited this restaurant multiple times, and the food and service have consistently been excellent. However, during our recent pick-up order yesterday, we experienced several issues. Our rainbow roll had plastic inside, and my miso ramen was missing its toppings, including the pork belly. I called the restaurant, and they credited me for the rainbow roll, but I believe these kinds of mishaps shouldn’t occur at a restaurant. We drove all the way there and back, only to be left completely disappointed.

I came here for my birthday the service was great our waitress was great. The food was ok. I did not like that the menu states 20% gratuity is for parties 5 or more. It was 3 of us at the table and they still charged us the 20% gratuity. The waitress stated some people aren’t tipping so they are adding gratuity to all tables regardless of how many people are there. I always tip pretty good when I go out and especially when the service is good. But don’t force me to tip a certain amount due to others that don’t tip. View menu

Our food was overpriced and not very good. I ordered the Japanese seared steak, medium. It came nearly raw, the outside had just barely been cooked. I normally just accept whatever I’ve ordered and don’t complain, but it literally was cold and inedible, so I sent it back to be re-fired. I’m pretty sure that they just microwaved it- it had the look and texture of boiled chicken (although obviously brown). My husband got the sea bass, it was ok, but had very little seasoning- definitely nothing to warrant the high price. I will say, our server was great. Will i return? Nope.

The food was delicious, as always. However, the service missed the mark. The waiter was very attentive at first, but then we went about 15 minutes without seeing him while waiting for our main dishes after the appetizers were served. Even after that, it took another 15 minutes for the main dishes to arrive. The restaurant wasn’t crowded, and since sushi doesn’t require cooking, it was puzzling to experience such a long wait. My only guess is that they were busy with a lot of takeout orders. Regardless, the waiter should have informed us about the delay, checked in with us every 5 to 10 minutes, or prioritized our food.

"Update: have to lower to 4 stars. Vegetable tend to be a bit bland. The vegetable dish and beef and broccoli both had bland vegetables. The beef was ok, but nothing great. 2 stars for vegetable dish, 2 3 for beef and broccoli.Original Review:Option for Dinner Combos which include Veggie Egg Roll and Chicken Fried rice set this place apart from other Chinese Takeout places. Their Mongolian Beef was absolutely perfect and the best I've ever had. Very good food, made very quickly, not perfect, but I will be back. See below for more detail:Chicken wing appetizers worst thing of what I ordered. Expensive, good size, but the chicken was over cooked, very dark exterior, tough, and lacking in flavor. However, still edible. I'd give 2 stars. J's Peapod wings are much better.Chicken Hot Sour Soup Best Hot Sour Soup I've had in a while from several different places. Good spice, good tang, and I like the chicken rather than the standard pork, great, 4 stars.I LOVE that they have the option of Dinner Combos, which come with an entrée, chicken fried rice, and an egg roll. Most places only do lunch combos, so if you want an entrée and fried rice for dinner you're spending $16 at the least. I think this makes the value at this restaurant much better. But I don't think all entrees can come as a dinner combo, only the ones listed on the menu...but I didn't ask to verify. 5 stars for just having that option!Shrimp Chow Fun Noodle Delicious. The Shrimps are large, fresh, and most importantly, deveined! Good overall taste. The actual takeout looks just like the picture (on google maps reviews) No corners cut here! 5 starsMongolian Beef Dinner Combo Very likely the best Mongolian Beef I've ever had. Just like the picture. Good cuts of beef, not fatty and chewy, but nice and tender. Onions and everything are perfectly sautéed. Nice amount of heat in the dish to bring out the flavors, well done! 5 starsSweet Sour Chicken Dinner Combo The battered chicken is what you'd expect from takeout. I don't order this a lot, but I was displeased with the sauce. I feel the sauce should be thicker, redder, and more flavorful...more sweetness and tang. It felt like a thin syrup. So my kids ate it without the sauce, and enjoyed it. They said it was like chicken nuggets (a good thing) and they enjoyed the chicken fried rice that came with it. 4 starsShrimp in Lobster Sauce (w/Pork) Dinner Combo I got this because the picture looked so good. It was very good. I just wish I could get it without pork, but it looked just like the picture, and tasted delicious! Again, large fresh shrimp, deveined. 5 starsVegetarian Eggrolls (Included with the dinner combos) Standardly Delicious! Good flavor, good crispy roll, my wife noted the hint of cinnamon (I believe it's the allspice, but I believe this is standard for egg rolls) 5 stars.Chicken Fried Rice (Included with the dinner combos) Good. Maybe could use more chicken, but I wouldn't complain. I enjoyed the flavor and texture of it, as did my kids. 5 starsKeep it up, Ken King!"
