We’ve been going there for ten years. They are always kind to my family and the food is consistent. Their lunch is a real bargain for sushi.

We tried a variety of dishes including the shumai, fried rice, Florida roll, beef bulgogi and some other items. The food was average, nothing was overly delicious but none of it was bad either. Prices were on par with expextations. My main issue was that once we received our food, we literally never saw our server again. He never came over to check how our meal was or ask if we needed anything. A completely different person came over to clear away plates. When we said yes, we are done, she offered boxes and brought us the check.Overall it was just OK. We are not local so chances are we will not be returning.

Good sushi and food, quick service, not overly attentive but they were friendly and busy so it was decent and they were relatively quick for a Friday night. Worst part was they basically sat us in front of the bathroom door maybe they shouldn't have a table there. ?

My friends took me here for my birthday and I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food. It was delicious and fresh. We had a bit of a way to get in and the place was packed. I guess the word is out that this is a great place to eat. If you like Thai spicy then bring your own spice. They don't offer a spice tray, just red pepper flake. I will definitely be back.
There is nothing spectacular about the food at Hooks. Yes they have large sizeportions, but no great flavor. Their NEW item, crispy tempura fried extra firm tofu was not crispy nor extra firm. I was charged 10.95 for my 8.95 lunch special, and it was not worth seeking a refund, as we will never return .

Been going to Hooks for over 15 years, it has always been a standard for a down to earth good vibes high grade sushi spot. Covid messed up a lot of things, including their very solid wait staff. I just had an experience there unlike any other, ever. Four of us came in for dinner on Saturday, there were three two tops available. No wait in front of us but the hostess told us it would be a 30 minute wait (ok probably short staffed tonight?). However the guy behind us (a table for one), no reservation was sat ahead of us after fussing at the hostess, and sat in the middle table as to block off from joining to tables together for a 4 top. The hostess didn’t offer the bar seats to us and ended up seating a few people behind us there. I have no idea what was going on but it was a really strange vibe, I’ve never felt so unwelcome at a hostess stand in my life. I’ll say it’s a one off but we ended up leaving and going to their old second location which is now called EBI on 4th street, they were happy to have us.Obviously won’t write Hooks off but geeze - this left a really weird impression.

Prices are crazy now.. $150 for 3, no drinks. I can't tell if it's price gouging or not, but 4.50 miso soup makes me think so
