We shared some snacks like Ikageso Karaage (fried squid tentacles) and the Mentaiko Fries. The street corn is very delicious. I tried the Kimchi Cream Udon with Tofu & loved it. 😍

“My husband and I tried Nigori for the first time today. It was fantastic! The sushi was super flavorful. The owner brought us a special off menu item, jalapeño crab popper topped with spicy mayo sauce. Talk about flavortown… We also tried the bang bang shrimp, also off the chart good. The portion size of all items was plentiful. The prices are also fantastic. We have found our new sushi restaurant.“

“The sushi itself was good, but the service was a bit disappointing. We didn’t get any refills on our drinks, and the food took a long time to come out. The guy with the mustache making sushi kept giving customers dirty looks, almost like he was tired of making sushi. Maybe it was just an off day, but the overall experience could have been better.“

“I love the food, the atmosphere, and the friendly staff at Shoguns. I highly recommend it.“

“We order sushi from umai a lot. Especially Christmas eve. We do the 7 fishes, and every year a large platter of sushi is a part of it. Umai has filled our Christmas eve order for years! We love them year round as well. In addition to fantastic sushi, they have a variety of entrees. The Hibachi combos are very good, and their soups are fantastic! You really can't go wrong with Umai Cafe.“

“A Nice Sushi Roll for Lunch.

Walking the mall with my mother and we decided to have a quick bite to eat before going to a movie, she wanted Asian so Sarku Japan was it.

She got some kind of chicken, but I went with a Tempura Shrimp Sushi Roll. Was affordable, came out pretty fast, and looked great.

Came with a side of fresh ginger and some very fresh wasabi, the sushi itself was excellent. No complaints. Light, satisfying, and a perfect choice for a quick meal before a much bigger one hours later.“
