“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!"“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“This is one of my favorite places to eat lunch. I have sampled many of the items on her menu and all of them are just wonderfully delicious“

“Super cute Japanese specialty shop! Everything is self serve and self checkout. Very easy and convenient. They had sushi rolls, onigiri, poke bowls, ramen cups, snacks, alcohol and other goods. Great place to stop by for an easy lunch on Court Street.“

“I've been looking for a good Chinese takeout restaurant for a while now, and the search is over, we've found it! Come for lunch or dinner!! Everything is hot and fresh just wonderfully seasoned, it's just all over a great experience. We love HOT WOK!!“

“If you’re looking for top quality sushi in the tri-state, this is it. The freshest salmon I’ve ever had. They use real crab not imitation as a lot of restaurants do. Crab Rangoon is made fresh daily. Never frozen or out of a bag. This is truly the freshest sushi I’ve ever had in all of my travels. My spouse loved the fried rice as a new favorite. We live 500 miles away. EVERYTIME we are in town to see friends and family, we make it a point to come here for dinner. TLDR; best sushi you’re missing out on if you don’t stop by.“

“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.“

My daughter is gluten free, and he makes every effort to bring us items that work for her diet. Worried about dining in during these uncertain times, Park did an amazing job disinfecting and partitioning off tables to keep our experience safe!“

“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!“

“only went for dessert. but the rolled ice was great. only problem was it took 10-15 minutes for them to get one part of the order together.“

“Once I walked in thr restaurant it already felt very authentic. The aroma of food smelt wonderful, I was practically drooling over the smell. The atmosphere felt very peaceful, it was loud, but quite, it was just the right amount a noise. The service was wonderful! Once a stepped in the restaurants I was immediately sat down at a table! They also had tons of seating areas! The staff were also kind to my little one! 😊 The miso soup tasted like a burst of rainbows exploding in my mouth. Most of their food choices were big enough for a whole family to share. 😊 Their sushi tasted phenomenal 😍! I loved how they had so many choices for almost everything. My son loved the egg drop soup! (He's a big fan of that soup!) I was really surprised that they had salads here! The Wild Ginger Fried Rice was so tasty, honestly when I read the description it just sounded okay, but when I had it, it just tasted so good there's no way to describe the amount of flavor I tasted. My husband got the Traditional Fried Rice, which was prepared beautifully. 😍 Overall l, this place is a solid 5 👍.“

“My favorite Asian buffet. Good food, friendly people, and good pricing. The sushi is my favorite in the area. The wait staff are very friendly and mostly extremely helpful. I go here with my 90-year-old mother and the servers often take care to seat us near the buffet and our last girl even followed my mother and carried her plate back to our table for us. Lovely place. Also, they offer menu service which is really good and a hibachi.“
