“5 stars very delicious! Yumi“

“"This is my new favorite thing." -Dr. A. Haller“

“Wonderful service and excellent rolls!! Overall great experience“

“This place is the perfect dining experience in my opinion. It's casual, yet intimate, and the atmosphere is chill hip hop. I got the Beef Bulgogi and the KFC and I am at odds with myself in choosing a winner between the two. I am 100% coming back to try the Tomago and Tonkatsu! The pièce de résistance was the Ube and strawberry dessert sandwich, it blew me away. However, what made this a 5 star experience in earnest was our server Calvin, he gave us so much knowledge and made us feel very comfy and welcome ? he is a G and I look forward to coming back to tell him how I feel about the rest of the menu!!!“

“Amazing sushi... unique offerings, and ultra delicious. i seriously think about my next visit waaaay too much...“

“Ora is a fantastic sushi restaurant with FRESH fish and excellent service. Definitely a go to for date night.“

“Quick friendly greeting and seating on a cold, wintery evening. The place was busy but the service was prompt and accurate. Excellent quality food and large portions. And you'll probably never be short of soy sauce per your taste.“

“Foods are outstanding and delicious Friendly staffs and great service“

“My favorite place for sushi. A hidden gem of the neighborhood. Nice and hard working people. Food is very good. Highly recommended!“

“I believe this place is a sister location to The Sipping Turtle, that being said the food is so good. I love the freshness of the ingredients, it truly is fully customizable. Only thing I wouldn’t recommend is their smoothies, I just don’t think they have a lot of flavor (super bland smoothies, taste like a lot of ice)“

“Nice atmosphere, good sushi“

“I called ahead on a Tuesday for their dinner reservations, we were told they weren't busy that night so we went ahead and made the one hour drive just for their sushi and their great reviews. We had the best experience and their sushi was truly top notch. We basically ordered everything on the menu from sushi, caviar to desserts and drinks. they did not disappoint, customer service was superb. The owner even came outside to attend us, he showed up with his own bottle of sake. I truly appreciate the great experience we had at this beautiful and clean restaurant. I have nothing bad to say, the food was high quality and extremely delicious. I definitely recommend this location, even if you have kids which I did. We left so happy and satisfied, loved it.“

“Amazing freshest sushi , best in the town , great service , and nice ambiance.“

“First time visitor. The food was exceptional, getting the takoyaki and route 66 rolls. Takoyaki was very hot and fresh, and extremely tasty. And I wasn't expecting the portion size of the roll to be as big as it was. Decently priced for the entire meal. I would definitely recommend eating at this place.“

“Good flavor and service. Kelab was so nice and friendly.“

“Went there around 4 for a late lunch and couldn’t have been happier with what I ordered. I tried the following rolls: yakuza, anaconda, spicy tuna, and Philadelphia. Each tasted super fresh, had delicious flavor, and was a great amount of food for the cost. Our waitress was very attentive and polite. I can’t believe I didn’t try this place sooner!!“

“Wonderful, authentic, beautiful Japanese sushi & food with a fantastic, hands on owner & exceptional service.“

“I will say this was a 3.5/4 out of 5. I’m rounding up my overall rating to a 4.

It’s a very nice ambience inside with various seating options (bar, high stool, regular seating). When we went around 7pm it was practically empty and not sure if because it’s a new restaurant or it was a week day but I recommend going on a weekend when it is a bit more lively. Despite it not being packed, service was a bit slow.

Food wise - the food tasted really good however the portions were tiny for the price. We ordered the cucumber salad, mushroom skewers, and chicken sandwich. All were really good. Mushroom skewers were seasoned very well but were a bit dry (no sauce or anything). Also, chicken sandwich was very good but the chicken was a bit dry. We asked for more honey mustard because it was so dry and then saw that they charged us for the additional mustard which was a bit penny pinching. The sandwich is very flavorful and chicken was thoroughly cooked.

There’s also not a lot of vegetarian options.

All in all the food was good in my opinion however do have these few suggestions.“

“Voor de 5e keer hier gegeten. Heerlijke pokebowl en sushi. Ruime keus.“

“The Xtra hot flavor on the chicken sandwich is blazing hot 🥵 but still full of flavour. Loved it.“

“The dragon roll delicious also the Spicy tuna yum.. and I had the Lychee tini 🍸 it was also great my new spot for sushi“

“A light evening at this relative central location. Great sushi pleasant store , very colorful but chill, one thing I didn’t expect was the floor was a little slippery , but looked clean may just be the type of tiles used or my shoe . Staff was pleasant and welcoming. Love the anime’s/gaming theme to store and names for the type of rolls, you could tell it was thought through and deliberate. Time between order and receiving the meal was quick …. I loved the Mario roll and crab Rangoons were more ish (would go back for this) .

Ultimately a Great experience and left comfortably full but not stuffed worth the spend??

Parking: It really depends on on time you go but the seemed to have a bunch of street paid parking relatively easy to access“

“Sakura was a cozy restaurant with really good Sushi, we enjoyed our time there! 😊🙏🏻“

“We had a fabulous dinner last night at Chicago Kalbi with Cummins Peru, Komat'su, and the VPs from Antimina copper mine.

Such a great place, where you cook the wagyu & kobe beef at your table. The food was delicious ?

Isao Tozuka, the chef and his wife Chiyo-san, are fabulous hosts, very friendly, and really happy to help and show you how things are do e.

I would definitely recommend coming here. It's a unique place. Make sure you book though ad it can be busy.“

“first time here last night for dinner and certainly not my last time. I love downtown Lagrange. my Friend and I were so lucky to find this gem of a restaurant.“

“Excellent food and service!! Highly recommend!“

“Good food for a great price. Service was fine, not friendly, not rude, but very quick and competent.
Trust me on this, get the noodles, oh yes yummy. And add veggies, very satisfying. Hubs agrees.
I was happily surprised by the amount of well made food for the price. And made quickly.“

“Comida recién hecha con gran sabor“

“Delicious food and fabulous service!“

“I went to eat here and everything from the welcome, the table prep, and the atmosphere was excellent! Highly recommended.

The food was presented in courses and is truly delicious: filling and hearty miso soup, the squid nigiri was very fresh and the texture was perfect, then I was presented with the avocado smoothie I ordered which had amazing consistency and will come back to enjoy again. At this point during my meal I felt as if I was being pampered and it reminded me of truly sweet moments I had with others, it literally brought tears of relief to my eyes. I quickly wiped them off and I was presented with the Caterpillar sushi roll I ordered which turned out to be amazing as well.

Thank you for acknowledging me and for the wonderful time.“

“the food here is exquisite, they put a lot of care into their preparation... And it makes for delicious dining.. I give this place five stars“

“Excellent staff. Drinks are a bit weak but overall very enjoyable.“

“Always fast, polite quality service, food is fresh and plentiful flavors are spot on. Our place to go“

“loved the cozy atmosphere of this place. went with a friend on a saturday night (with a reservation) and they told us service would be slow because they were understaffed - it was not slow at all

we tried:
• lychee please cocktail
• toro tartare
• chicken karaage
• shio pork belly
• tako nuta
• takoyaki
• hamachi nigiri
• sake nigiri

toro tartare and shio pork belly were definitely the stars. toro tartare was delicious, and it had a perfectly soft & buttery texture. shio pork belly was juicy and flavorful with a tasty sauce drizzled on it

the chicken karaage and nigiri pieces were dishes that i could tell were quality, but not necessarily for me. the ginger flavor in the chicken karaage was too strong for my liking, and the nigiri pieces had strong wasabi flavor, which i don’t personally like

overall a very pleasant dining experience that i would definitely recommend“

“Love this place, the food is delicious! Anything I’ve ordered has been amazing and my friends say the same!“
