“Oki Japan is very tasty and at a great price. We were there before the circus, which was on the lot and had a nice meal. It is located inside the Lakewood Center Mall.The place is small and does a lot of to go and delivery. There are some nice places to sit and the mall area right out front as a lot of seating.We had shrimp tempura and rice which was great and some sushi. The sushi was good, not great. We will have something else next time. Their beef bento box was really good and their vegetables are steamed nicely and they are super tasty. Their chicken teriyaki is excellent.The place is clean and the service is really nice and they are fast. Have fun.“

“I have been going to Mamma's sushi for years. Before the Shabu Shabu next door. I have always enjoyed the food, service and the atmosphere. It seems like they get better in each category over the years. Recently, I have noticed that while other places have made Sushi almost unaffordable, Mamma's sushi saves the day with all their deals. Lunch specials, dinner specials it seems like they have something for every time slot of the day.

Savings! Savings and taste? It is now my favorite sushi spot. It does not hurt the bank and I love the customer service. They are busy often but I feel that they still manage to do an excellent job all around. Keep it up Mamma's and see you soon!“

“I have been coming to this place for a while. Fair price, but the food needs an upgrade, specially the california rolls. Small portions and very little wasabi and ginger.
They should have a policy for customers to bring earphones for those who want to be on their phone playing loud videos and for parents who have no control of their children and they have to use an iPad or a phone playing very loud videos to entertain the child. It is very annoying. It looks that there are lots of people with no common nor respect for each other.“

“people working were very professional the place was clean. the food was hot and good.“

“If you’re craving a taste of the islands, Ohana BBQ is the place to go! This Hawaiian barbecue gem delivers an explosion of flavors that transport you straight to a sunny beach in Hawaii. From the moment you walk in, the laid-back, aloha vibe wraps you in warmth, with friendly staff and a cozy atmosphere that feels like a home away from home.
The menu is a love letter to Hawaiian cuisine. Their kalua pork is an absolute standout—smoky, tender, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious, with just the right balance of savory and subtle sweetness. Pair it with a side of creamy mac salad, and you’ve got a plate lunch that hits all the right spots. The teriyaki chicken is another winner, perfectly grilled with a glossy, caramelized sauce that’s equal parts tangy and sweet. Don’t sleep on the gyozas either.
What sets this place apart is the attention to detail. The portions are generous, the rice is always perfectly sticky, and every dish feels like it’s made with love. The tropical decor and island music playing softly in the background add to the experience, making it feel like a mini-vacation with every visit. Plus, the prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity you get.
Whether you’re a local or just passing through, Ghana BBQ is a must-visit for authentic Hawaiian barbecue that leaves you full, happy, and already planning your next trip back. Mahalo for the ono grinds!“
