“I had dinner in Paso a week ago. I noticed when I was looking on line at my bank withdraws they charged me twice. It was 12.60 and showed the next day the same charge. Whice was the same day we went in to tell them. We only ate there the one time. We went in to talk to a manager and he wasn't there. The girl working called him. (The owner)He wasn't very good with his customer service. He wanted us to come back the next day at 4 and he'd look at it. He should have told her to just take care of us. I had printed out my statement to show them. We've been eating there for as long as they've been open. I left irritated, it wasn't a 50.00 charge. It was under 13.00. Long story short I went to my bank and they stopped the second charge. Now I will only use cash if I go in there. The owner should have just taken care of us! Food is always good. Ate in the one in San Luis Obispo and they were good also. Just disappointed how he didn't handle it.“

“This was my first time there and it was good , nice atmosphere and plenty of Choices on the menu . I had the poke bowl even though it was good I felt the tuna was not very fresh almost tasted like it was frozen . Not really what I expect from a restaurant like this . My partner had one of the noodle bowls and that was absolutely delicious enough for two people no doubt . Our table was very wobbly and not very comfortable . They had complimentary lemon water and cucumber water which as absolutely delicious ! I definitely would come back again and try some other items on their menu“

“I can’t believe I have not reviewed this place yet! I love their happy hour 50% off menu. But their regular menu is just as great. I usually order from both the service has always been fantastic when I’ve been in servers are friendly and the food is made fairly quickly, without sacrificing quality

Kid-friendliness: They have the adapters for chopsticks, which make it really easy for the kids to use them. They also have paper cups, which is great, because it allows the children to have cups with lids that are not breakable. This is a must for my son.“
