“The food and service are great!“

“Just went last night and happy to say that it is finally improving after hitting a slump during the pandemic. The food has always been excellent but service is spotty. Last night, I would give a solid A- for service, and the food, an A+! Hope they keep the upward trend!“

“Best sushi ever, great hospitality, I recommend the Salmon Sunset. I can never get sushi anywhere else, this place is a hidden gem!! 10/10“

“Very nice, hardworking staff and delicious food! Love this place and highly recommend!! 😋👍“

“Food is amazing, Kenny was our chef and he was great! It as our first time doing hibachi and they definitely made an effort to show us a good time. Steak was the best thing we had ordered, it is pricy but definitely worth it for when u want a fancy night out.“

“This is the best sushi, hands down. Whether you dine in or order out, you will not be disappointed. The food is consistently fresh and delicious. My favorites include gyoza, Hawaiian roll, Volcano roll, seared tuna, bento box..... and everything else I've tried. Please give them a try, you'll be so happy you did. We will never go anywhere else! Thank you Asahi!“

“Great sushi and food around! Price is amazing! Friendly staff (owner)!“

“I really enjoyed my dinner at Tokio Sake. I ordered a volcano roll, and it was enough to
feed two people. The quality of the food was 5 stars! The presentation was artistic, and my server was attentive. The restaurant was very full on a Saturday night, which is a testament to the place. I had not eaten here before but will definitely come back! The ambiance is very nice as well. Great dining experience 👌“

“First time here. Will definitely be coming back many times! The Red Miso Ramen was the best I have had in a long time! Cannot wait to come back!“

“Everything was excellent!!!“

“I dined here at the sushi bar for the first time this year (Saturday night, 11-9-2024)! I usually order about $100-$200 of take out! It was a GREAT experience! The main dining room was PACKED, so thankfully, I had the sushi bar area to myself! Anyway, for appetizers, I had the Golden Lobster, Golden Shrimp and Shrimp Shumai Dumplings (which were so pillowy soft and delicious)! Then for entree, I had a Salmon Skin Handroll, Spicy Tuna Handroll, and a ton of nigiri: Uni/Sea Urchin, Salmon, Fatty Salmon, Tuna, Fatty Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Mackerel, Ikura/Salmon Roe, Spicy Tobiko/Flying Fish Roe, and Tamago/Scrambled Egg! My total bill was $190!!! It was well worth it because I had the sushi bar area to myself, got to watch these cool blues videos on the flat screen TV, and have a nice time talking with Owner/Executive Chef Mr. Lee! I will, of course, be back for more awesome sushi! By the way, you can only dine in on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights! You can do take out on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights! They're closed on Mondays!“

“Food tasted great! Friendly staff and amazing service. Will be back!“

“They always have the best service here. My wife and I have been coming here for nearly a decade now and we have never had a bad experience. They are always very accommodating and help my wife who is Vegan. Hanabi is the best.“

“A good option

Let's start with the food; They have quite a variety of food, good quality ingredients although nothing different or a reference point, I consider that their quality-cost-portion ratio is still in good balance, I would recommend perhaps improving the speed in food preparation a little .

Service, just good, nothing bad, nothing to highlight, it only remains as something that would not provide added value.

Regarding the environment, it is good, enough spaces for people, you can interact with the people you go to without any restrictions, you can go with your family, friends without any problem.“

“We love this place and we will going to miss it“

“First time going here was amazing, staff was great and very respectful, and don’t even get me started on the ramen, everything about it was amazing from the taste to the look. But yeah honestly great place to grab ramen.“

“Love it!!!, the food and service was amazing. Would go for it again. 10/10!“

“Very good quality fish. great service“

“Great sushi. Friendly service. Consistent quality.“

“awesome sushi place it was yummy“

“Phenomenal in a true gem in the Hoffman Estates area. The crabcake is to die for. Some of the best sushi that I’ve eaten all around. Very reasonably priced super tentative staff. If you have the opportunity to eat here, take it.“

“Love this restaurant! The food is consistently delicious, the wait staff is top notch and the restaurant is an enjoyable ambiance with multiple booths for seating or tables if preferred. We're so glad this opened!

Parking: Parking is right out front of door which helped once when it had begun to rain! Also, handicapped parking is available.“

The nicest and most caring Staff i ever experianced. I believe the waitress is the owner and she is the most caring person in a resturant i had ever dealt with. Truly very good food and service i will Come back😍❤“

“Fuji Thai is the best restaurant in the area! I worked here for 4 years when I was younger and Ive been back as a customer every time I’m in town for the past 5 years. I can say from first hand experience, everything is clean and sanitary. The staff was always great to work with. For a first job, I couldn’t have asked for more. And Mona and her family (owners) are amazing! The food is incredible. Almost everything on the menu is made fresh and from scratch. Favorites: Tom kha soup Panang curry Double shrimp lover“

“I went to Wok n Fire for my first time tonight and got to experience it a little differently with it being the first day you are able to dine indoors since COVID. Our waitress, Stacey was absolutely amazing! She gave personal recommendations and even traded out my girlfriends wine that she didn’t like. Great food and delicious!“

“My wife and I totally enjoyed their food. We were a bit surprised to see that the AYCE went up to $28.99. We will go back.“

“One of the best places to eat on earth! Flavors are amazing. Salad dressing is the best. Spicy Garlic Shrimp - amazing! The house made Teriyaki is the best I ever had! Such a great place! Highly recommend. :)“

“Food is always delicious and the service is great. Can get a bit crowded during prime dinner hours but there's always take out if you'd like to eat at home

Parking: Plenty of spots to park including handicap near the door

Wheelchair accessibility: The curb has been modified to allow wheelchair“

“Fantastic sushi, some of the best I've ever had, at a good price for all you can eat! Very nice servers and staff overall! Nice light atmosphere. Usually no wait as they've got quite a few tables for a smaller place, and food usually comes out pretty quick, but super fresh sushi, never had a bad experience!“
