“We recently visited for my bday on 5/31. The decor is beautiful and the service was stellar! Everyone was attentive and friendly. Our hibachi chef was amazing. He was extremely entertaining and super accommodating. He made our hibachi dinner experience the best we have ever had. The food was perfect and great portion sizes. My son even ordered Spider rolls and said they were amazing! My two teens and 1yr old enjoyed it immensely! Thank you all for the great celebration. We will be back for sure!!! Highly recommend to all!!“

“Server was prompt and attentive, and our drinks were always full. The menu is massive, so we settled on an appetizer and sushi. The yellowtail cheek was decent, but rather than the side of sauce, it could have benefit from a seasoned/basted preparation. The sushi was very solid. I am not normally a specialty roll kind of sushi eater, but that Honey roll (I know it's out there) was sweet, spicy, fruity, fresh and flavorful. I would driver the 1 hour + again just to get that roll!“

“I have been coming here for years and Ruma Izakaya remains my favorite Japanese spot in the area. From the sushi to the entree’s, sides, incredible miso soup, and smoothies, Runa Izakaya wins my heart and my stomach over every time! Thank you for great service and even better food! 12/10 recommend😊“
