This restaurants food is seriously mind blowing. The added bonus....all the staff are super friendly and easy to get along with. Down to earth atmosphere and a comfortable setting.“

“We were there with our 2 kids and had an amazing dinner. The staff, the atmosphere and, the food were incredible!!!“

“absolutely delicious experience. The conveyor belt featured a wide variety of appetizers, salads, fresh fruit, sushi, nigiri, and dessert. our waitress was super attentive and extremely polite. The atmosphere is very fun and entertaining as you watch the conveyor belt, the trams on top of the belt, and the robots delivering hot and fresh food. our waitress was on top of our drinks and explained the iPad and the conveyor belt system very well. Will definitely be back. for the two of us with a generous tip, it was under $50.“

“One team member said: "Cafe Mochiko is hands down one of the best Japanese bakeries that I have had the honor of trying. Everything is perfectly balanced regardless if you are a sweet or savory kind of person! The best part was my gluten free wife had some incredible options as well. The only thing that I wish is that I knew about them sooner. They are award winning for a reason and I highly recommend everyone to check them out!"“

“Best lil gem i discovered. Everything here is delicious, price is very fair for the quality and lil Hannah, made my night! Highly recommend this place!!!! Its my go to now for sushi and dumpling soup!“

“The ramen never disappoints, and you can customize to your preference with a variety of add-ins. The appies and rice bowls are also delicious. Oh, and their chasu (pork) is life-altering. Highly recommended!“

“Great tonkotsu Ramen. big portion“

“This place is absolutely phenomenal 😍 I ordered a teriyaki salmon bento box and it came with all of this for $20! Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Sake Bomb is a great little Asian Restaurant/Sushi Bar in Erlanger. We've been here a few times but it had been quite a while. They have quite a lot Asian dishes but on this occasion we focused exclusively on the Sushi. Among the one's we had were the Sunday Morning (my personal favourite), fire scallop, and the firecracker among others. They are all visually appealing and absolutely delicious. The chef really took a lot of care crafting flavours into every bite. I really can't recommend their Sushi highly enough. Also I know I mentioned this in earlier reviews but the restaurant looks so magnificent and really authentic to Japanese culture. The seating is very close quarters so I must mention that as it might be off-putting to some. All in all the Sushi was excellent, the service was good, and the place looked awesome. Fantastic experience.“

“The food is absolutely delicious. It is authentic. Love Love LOVE THE spicy kimchi Ramen. Definitely a hidden gem in Cincinnati and very affordable.“

“The sushi and the crab puffs were great, the general tso's had a light crispy batter and a nice balanced sauce, and the fried rice was absolutely perfect. I can't believe this place wasn't busier. I feel like ambient music all the time would go a long way. I can't wait to see what this place becomes. I'd love to see the bar open and karaoke nights on that cute stage!“

“We were looking for recommendations for lunch after we went to the zoo. We had delivery from this place probably 5 years ago and it was so good. I talked to my friends about revisiting today and boy I'm so glad we did! Not only did we have super size portions, The food was fantastic! I recommend anyone taking a trip to the zoo to check out Ninja grill afterwards for lunch!“

“I go back because the food is awesome and the lady taking the orders is always nice and smiling. She is an excellent reason to keep going back.“

“Best Chinese food in NKY! My favorite is the bourbon chicken and bang bang shrimp. My family loved it so much I had to come back and order more the next day. The staff is very nice and the building is very clean. Nice little trinkets for sale too. Will recommend to all my friends“

“Jay Jay, you must work for the competition ! I've been a cook over 35 years. There's nothing unusual about the cleanliness that is a usual kitchen. They are not pretending to cook.. They're really making you something.. that makes a little bit of a mess. And a little wear & tear nothing unusual, jay jay, you lying. Food was good and the service was excellent. And they're especially generous, especially compared to the competition nearby.“

“I absolutely Love the sushi at this place. It's so good. Although the restaurant itself is pretty small the flavor in the food is huge! The staff is very friendly. The chair are kinda tattered and beat up. It could definitely do with some new furniture (chair for the tables at the minimum). But if you're willing to deal with the lack luster atmosphere, the food is definitely worth it.“

“The onigiri is phenomenal
Daruma is a little self serve shop of well curated delicious stuff. My teen & I love to stop here to grab onigiri and bottled drinks to take on picnics (or for them to eat in the car while examining how good they are)“

“We are on vacation and decided to try this place out. I would recommend 10/10. The chef was amazing. My grandkids have never been to a Hibachi place. The chef interacted with the kids as much if not more than the adults. Good was fantastic! Waitress was a little slow but the place was really busy. I will definitely visit if I am ever here again!“

“The owner is such a kind woman! Please, community of Delhi and all over do continue to support such a generous business owner, mother, restaurant and community member with her restaurant growth and existence. I was blessed to formally meet her this evening. She had a beautiful story to tell and I just pray the community continues to eat there and pay it forward for people's children to be able to eat in uncertain times. My daughter was fed tonight and we are grateful and thankful for that. God bless you, your restaurant and family. The food was AMAZINGLY GOOD!♥️🙏🏽“

“3 months, and they continue to ignore my messages. They charged me for the wrong thing and there was a problem with my Miso soup. Definitely a company who couldn't care less about customers.“

“The food is always great. They have an all you can eat menu which is nice. I eat here often. 100% recommend 👍🏻“

“I have always loved E+O but their costumer service these past few days have been top notch. I made an error when getting an online gift card and Kayla immediately hopped in and solved this issue quickly. I love the food and love the atmosphere!“

“Mindy took excellent care of me and my dining experience this evening- the volcano, rainbow, Sunday morning, tempura rolls & bbq eel and mackerel nigiri all hit the spot with a tall can of Sapporo. 🌈 🍣 🍺“

“My daughter and mine first time. Nick was sensational. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Food was great and timely. We definitely will be back. Thanks for a great experience“

“General Taos chicken combination eggroll and brown rice.“

“Today was our first time here and everything was amazing and great price!“

“My wife and I just discovered a hibachi spot that's lit - Miyako Steakhouse and Sushi! Fair prices, fantastic food, and top-notch entertainment. I mean, it's been ages since I've been to a hibachi that actually entertains. And I'm not just saying that 'cause we had six tiny tornados at our table - every table was getting in on the fun. If you're in Crescent Springs, do yourself a favor and get on down to Miyako Steakhouse & Sushi Bar - it's our new go-to hibachi spot!“

“I wanted to mention the cooks amazing work with the kimchi fried rice and the Tteok bokki! The kimchi fried rice was the perfect amount of “fishy” so call it sooo much flavor & the tteok bokki was cooked to perfection- each piece! Not too soft not too hard! Amazing tastes!“

“Outstanding customer service. Wife and I and 1 year old grandson went to Fuji for wife's birthday dinner. Just as chef starts cooking my grandson gets ill (vomiting). Wife runs him to restroom and I get help from staff for floor. The staff assisted my wife with bringing her warm towels to clean him up bags to put dirty clothes into. Once we got him changed they helped us box our untouched meals and got us the check promptly. The staff went above and beyond to help us get our little guy cleaned and get our food prepped and out the door as we didn't want to upset other guests. My wife ate her meal at home and said it was great.“

“Amazing Food Tasty Environment Great!!!“

“We were pleasantly surprised by this place. The atmosphere, service, and the food were top notch. Will definitely be back.“

“Very Good Sushi!!! We enjoyed every bite we took and highly recommend you visit this restaurant. We will definitely be back many times!“

“This applies for the takeaways. First off, their curries are delicious and a good deal when you order to take away. Yes they are $17-18 which is more than some places but you get a lot of curry! Unfortunately the deal stops there. We also ordered a Pad Thai and it was over $17. The portion was ok but considering its just noodles and a few veggies that's a lot of money. The taste of the Pad Thai was just so so. Definitely disappointed in it. Last thing we ordered was some vegetable sushi. $8 for 6 tiny pieces. Definitely over priced. I still am rating 4 stars because the curries are delicious and so worth the money. Stick to them and you won't be disappointed“

“Been going here the last 12 years of my 20 of existing, I’ll be honest when I say this place hasn’t been perfect, I’ve seen its ups and downs through the years but always remained a customer. I’m writing this review now to say GO TO ICHIBAN, this place has really stepped its game up beyond a 3.6 star review. The food is always good (be considerate of what time you go, it’s a buffet, normal meal times it’s always sooooo good!!), the owner is so kind and friendly and she provides a great service!! It’s a buffet but she still runs around to ask customers what’s missing and if it’s not out there she will make it to order! And for the amount of food you get, in this economy, you cannot beat the price. Ichiban really has became one of my weekly go toes in the Alexandria - cold spring area. Thank you Ichiban <3!“
