“I ordered delivery during lunch time. They have some really great lunch special options, so it seemed like the perfect time to try this place. I ordered the beef negimaki bento box which came with soup, salad, a california roll, rice, and some yakitoried veggies. I was able to add one some tempura for 3 dollars extra and I sure did. Everything was absolutely delicious. It came quickly, and was hot. The tempura (two shrimps, a carrot, and a sweet potato) were crispy, light, and delicious. The salad had the classic carrot ginger dressing I love so much. The negimaki was good, the sauce was not too sweet, and the veggies and california roll all tasted great.I would absolutely order here again, the price was reasonable and the food was delicious.“
“I love to go to Pokemoto. They have really good sauces like the Creamy Miso and make delicious seaweed salad. What I like best about this place is the service though, the servers are always kind and efficient. Today I went to get a Poke bowl and my server, Sophie, helped me pick out some new things to try based on what I liked already. The bowl she helped me create is so scrumptious and I so appreciate her help!! Definitely going to keep coming back here as long as I can.“
“This review is long overdue. Hachi is perhaps one of the best, if not the best, restaurants in the area. I go so often that the manager Maggie knows my order by heart! I always feel respected and welcomed when I go and my food is delicious. I wish they were open on Tuesdays so I could go every day of the week!“
“Mikado is usually my go-to for sushi, especially if I want to have things besides the sushi, too. My friend and I went on a Saturday night recently to celebrate our birthdays from the month before. I like the ambience. The booths are pretty private. You have to walk down a flight of steps and it feels like you're not even in downtown Middletown. The menu is extensive. Almost too big. Despite this, I've never had something I didn't love at Mikado. They've done everything well so far. The service is great, good portions and a variety of options.“
“We came in for lunch on a holiday so there were not many people in the restaurant. Each of us ordered something different. My chicken lo mein was delicious and the portion was quite large. My husband had several sushi rolls which were fresh and delicious. One of my sons got the hibachi lunch and loved it. My other son got a teriyaki bento box. This was his first time trying sushi and he loved it as well. The waitstaff was friendly and extremely kind. We will definitely be backKid-friendliness: They offered my kids “cheater chopsticks”, my younger son got “the world’s coolest bendy straw”, on our way out they asked him if he’d like a balloon, then blew up the cutest foil dinosaur balloon.“
“I had an exceptional dining experience at this restaurant. The culinary offerings were exquisite, complemented by a delightful atmosphere and attentive staff. The freshness of the food truly stood out. My companions and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit and look forward to returning. Without hesitation, I will be recommending Ikura to others. Thank you for providing a truly wonderful dining experience!“
“Hidden in the corner, somewhere in Newington. Tokyo Cafe was a pleasantly delicious and wholesome surprise. My partner and I decided to venture out and try somewhere new and we may have just found our new regular spot.The dining room doesn’t have too much seating (6-8 tables max) and I would definitely consider it an intimate but cozy vibe. We frequent sushi of all calibers, this isn’t meant to be compared to Nobu or other establishments of the sort. It is an excellent neighborhood sushi restaurant.The food was fresh and delectable . My partner really enjoyed the Kani Salad as an appetizer. She said it was unique in taste and refreshing. I had a house salad with ginger dressing and the miso soup which was just what I wanted and what you would expect. We also shared the Pepper Tuna Tataki ??? absolutely delightful. I must mention all from the dressing to the consistency of the kani salad, this wasn’t the generic all you can eat, run of the mill spot.The very nice lady that waited on us was very attentive and put care into her work. The Sushi Itamae delivered with a beautiful presentation and construction of the “Sushi Sashimi Combo 4 Us”. We finished the meal off with some fried ice cream and left happy and full. I would recommend this place and we will be returning.“
“When we were going to go to the very full Mexican place nearby we saw this place and it was very nice to eat at and had a very 'home-y' feel to it in regards to the people there, it felt like a place where they have made this food for a while and have their menu down pat... “
“I had such a wonderful night, our waiter was great and made the experience so memorable and everything was delicious.Got a Thai iced tea (like 4 of them and took the rest home haha), chicken tempura and pork gyoza dumplings for appetizers, and then got mushroom soup, shrimp tempura roll, and other things as well that were spectacular.Just go here. Or better yet, get it delivered!!!!!!YOUR STOMACH WILL THANK ME?“
“This sushi place was one of my favorite. Recently the rolls are so huge that they always fall apart. They taste ok , but not sure why they make them so big. Also the seaweed is very chewy compared to other places. Not sure if it’s a new chef, but it’s definitely different.“
“Their food is one of the best sushi places ever, I ordered the shrimp tempura one with mango and one without amazing and the spicy mayo delicious. I just upset that they are no longer in Bloomfield,Ct anymore but happy their still around for sure.“
“We stopped here for some quick sushi due to its proximity to the Truck Bar. It was a good find! A little hole in the wall place in a large plaza. The service was excellent, very attentive and accommodating. The atmosphere was a little underwhelming, as it seemed to keep busy with mostly takeout orders as opposed to dine in. The food itself was good, not the greatest sushi ever, but it hit the spot for a sushi craving!“
“This is my go-to Japanese restaurant, and has been since my first visit in 2017. Food and service quality is excellent whether I've had hibachi, sushi, or the regular restaurant menu. As stated in other reviews, the manager is an outstanding example of team leadership and customer service. For the less adventurous eater, there are a few conventional choices on the menu too. I have taken friends and out-of-state relatives to Sake and all were glad I did.“
“I ordered the spicy beef ramen it was amazing! The beef was tender and flavorful as well as the broth. I've tried several ramen spots in CT and this is the best I've had so far. Can't wait to go back and try the tonkotsu and sushi.“
