“food and service are awesome. friendly environment. great atmosphere!“

“Delicious food. It’s the only place I go. Great service very friendly staff. You won’t be disappointed!“

“Absolutely wonderful experience with Chef Mike Monaco at Akame Nigiri. Totally humble sushi master who has the in depth knowledge of fish crucial to being a top tier sushi guy. My wife and I celebrated our 10th anniversary and it was exactly what we wanted— world class omakase but humble low key and very comfortable.

Chef Mike makes you feel at home with a buddy who just happens to deliver the tastiest morsels! We will be back, thanks again!!“

“Well, I finally made it to Mojo Sushi for a very special birthday dinner! I have been a Sushi aficionado for many decades, and have enjoyed Sushi from some of the best establishments from around the country, including those in Boston, New York, San Francisco… and let me just say, Mojo served me the BEST Sushi I’ve ever had! Really! The fish was as fresh as it could be, the available varieties, and the attention to detail of everything I was served, was second to none. The husband and wife team were extremely personable, the atmosphere was pleasant, quiet, and conducive to enjoying a great meal. And they even sang me Happy Birthday, while serving me a unique green tea cheesecake which was a tasty way to finish an incredible meal. I’d give them 6+ stars if I could, but suffice to say, I WILL be returning! Thank you for a truly memorable birthday meal!“

“Great food, great service. The yakitori are grilled to perfection. The wait staff are super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The drink menu offers an array of sake, cocktails, wine and beer. Cannot wait to go back and try more food!“

“such a good sit down poke spot hidden in a mini plaza. the owners were incredibly friendly and the service was a 10/10. it’s very cozy and comfy, and moreover the food was so good that i scraped my entire bowl clean. i wish i had a picture but i literally inhaled my bowl. i’ll definitely be coming back when i pop by the area again.“

“Genuinely don’t understand why this place is empty save for my family when we come in - The waiters are attentive, and the food and milk tea are both spectacular. They offer a lot more options than most sushi restaurants as well! Seems like a really lovely family business and I would definitely recommend.“

“This is my favorite sushi place, bar none. The food is a great value given the quantity and quality, and the customer service couldn't be better. They recognize me when I come to pick up lunch despite only going about once a month, and the staff is always so friendly. I recommend it to all my coworkers, and always look forward to my lunches from there.“

“I love how it looks very cozy and relaxed, and I usually walked past it but when I ordered food I was amazed! All the ingredients were fresh, the food tasted really good, and the employees were so kind! I love it there, its my favorite spot for sushi burritos.“

“Came here twice and really enjoyed it! Food is delicious, servers are so kind, and it's so beautiful inside.
This place is really quiet, even on a Friday night, which is good for me, but this place needs more customers for sure!! Come & check this place out!“

“We were craving sushi and most places were closing… and I’m so glad they were because it lead to the discovery of this gem! We ordered our sushi to go. The food was delicious and staff was very friendly! Definitely making this place my sushi to go place!“

“This was one of the BEST omakase experiences I have ever had. The attention to detail was extraordinary. I ate at several two and three star Michelin restaurants last summer in France and I was happier with my dining experience at Umami. The quality of ingredients is absolutely stellar and it is truly a treat for all the senses. Go!!“

“As always an excellent meal! Mike makes great sushi, and kitchen chefs do great things as well. Its one of our regular places.“

“When I saw the reviews for Wasabi at Porter I assumed they hired bots...
They did NOT hire bots.
They are THAT good!!!!!!!!

The food was amazing, and the tiny metal tray (for soy/wasabi) was a nice touch! This place deserves their 5-stars! New Customer = Regular Customer Now!“

“The best takeout restaurant for sushi and Chinese food in Melrose!“

“Great food and food selections Extremely personable staff Reasonable prices“

“Legit—if you could take high quality omakase level sushi to-go for a fraction of the price, this would be it. We got their signature bento box and it is essentially a 10 course omakase times two since there's two of each distinctly heavenly piece. Truly the Noah's ark of sushi. They curated this box perfectly. Each one uniquely melted in our mouth releasing the pure flavor of each insanely fresh ingredient. On top of their thoughtfully elegant packaging/presentation, they included a list of each piece and where they were sourced. Like I said, legit. I'm not big on uni, but they had that top shelf Hokkaido uni that has the power to change minds. Seriously though, food so good you can't help but have multiple favorites. Also, I'm big on wasabi, and theirs is notably authentic. Perfectly balanced with that pleasant kick to the sinuses.

The folks here are super nice and are more than happy to answer any questions on the phone. It's also worth noting that they operate out of Billy C's, so if you find yourself in their parking lot, you're at the right place. This is a true hidden gem. Do not sleep on this place. Go here, tell your friends, tell your family, enjoy their top-tier food, and praise the Lord for it. Looking forward to coming back!“

“Casual Pan-Asian kitchen with good chicken dishes.

Saw this place pop up recently on Highland Ave after Highland Pizza closed. It's a slightly unexpected spot for a Ginger Exchange, since most of their locations are clustered around college campuses, but it looked like they built this specific outpost primarily to serve as a high-volume delivery and takeout hub.

As usual, the menu here is massive. Covering almost everything from sushi to Korean and Thai dishes. The chain's owners also operate an internal ghost kitchen out of this same space called Bok Bok Chicken (not affiliated with the one over in Union Square). Most of the dishes we’ve tried so far were solid, but our favorites were their Thai chicken rice plates and the Korean chicken wings.“

“Good food. Good atmosphere. Good people“

“we had 2 sushi rolls and a pi no grigio and a maitai all were greatm fresh sushi and a nice atmosphere. the place is very clean. service was great!“

“genki ya is one of my favorite sushi spots!! the food is always super fresh, the rolls are perfectly made, and the portions are really generous for the price. the staff is always so kind and fast too, it just feels like they actually care about the customers. everything tastes clean and consistent every time i go. if you love sushi, you’ll love genki ya:)“

“Great experience! Staff and food was amazing“

“only downfall too warm. heat rises. otherwise great time and great staff.“

“Definitely some of the freshest and tastiest seafood and innovative sushi and asian food I've had in a while, very fresh and tasty!“

“AMAZING FOOD & ATMOSPHERE!! The Mongolian Beef is incredible!!!!“

“Yoki in Medford is the best Sushi by far Staff is totally awesome and the place is so so clean and their sushi chefs are spot on service is exceptional and very friendly ownership cares about about your dining experience cant miss place you will not be disappointed go and enjoy. we have been a customer for years and love everyone there DiNonna Inc Joe & Rosemary“

“Other than the cafeteria being full on weekends, this place is my favorite. They cook very well and ingredients are fresh. I order the bento and the level of detail is phenomenal. this is the tastiest food I've ever had and will always be coming here as long as I'm alive. The prices keep going up so I hope they calm down. The best time to come is during the week.“

“This place is one of the best places I’ve been to in a hot minute! The bottomless brunch and $4 mimosas had my best friend and I making immediate reservations! The staff and management are so sweet and truly care about the service they provide. This really is the place to go and if you haven’t yet you better get on it babe! Will be here once a month at least! Seriously obsessed! 🤍“

“I'm originally from just outside New Orleans, LA. Came here with a friend and was all too curious that they had Jambalaya on the menu. I cannot stress this enough. Order the Jambalaya. It reminded me of home.“

“reat drink “slay the dragon” worth it ! The food is delicious we got the sesame beef , tik tok chicken , Peking ravs and lomein split three ways. Service was excellent and friendly .“

“I ordered take out so I can’t speak to the atmosphere or service quality but I can absolutely say how I haven’t been that incredibly surprised for a very long time. I have ordered from many Asian restaurants and so often the pictures and descriptions look amazing. However, once delivered and eaten, it was all good, but didn’t have the wow factor! I ordered four different dishes from this place and every single one had the wow factor, it was such an explosion of deliciousness in each and every bite! Do yourself a favor and get your Ginger Exchange on, soooooo yummy!“

“Food was awesome and service was excellent too“

“Love the place, especially Kevin, the bartender. Good service, friendly atmosphere, this is where we celebrate friends birthdays and other celebrations“

“this place is such a cute, amazing spot hidden behind a parking lot. Absolutely loved the food, came back for more. This will be my sushi/poke bowl take out spot from now on. The gentleman in the register is so sweet and made great suggestions. Such a nice atmosphere. Food taste so fresh, and yummy.
They don’t disappoint!!“

“Everything we had was tasty, and the prices weren't too crazy. The sashimi was great, edamame was tasty, and I liked the specialty roll we got, the Hawaii roll. The only caveat is the chicken teriyaki was a bit overcooked, but it was a good portion.“

“Recently had lunch here for the first time and it was soooooo good. Delicious food, warm ambience and really nice staff.“

“We loved our food and had a great dining experience beside the windows in front of house. Our staff were helpful but not intrusive and we left happily full and with delicious leftovers to enjoy at home. Thank you nice folks at Fusion Taste!“

“Most if not all of the bad reviews of this place have to do with the owner at the cash register who doesn’t speak good English and has a short temper with guests. While I have personally had 0 issues with her, I can understand peoples complaints. If you accept and respect her as a given with ordering then there really isn’t much else to complain about. The sushi is the cheapest you will find in the state for the quality in which they make it. Quality is between super market and restaurant level but for less than super market price. I highly recommend as long as you have the right expectations.“

“Hidden gem in greater Boston. Omakase beats my expectations, and the pork belly is probably the best I’ve tasted this year. Considering I’ve spent 2 months in China and Japan this year, the bar is pretty high, but the chef here did it.

Only thing to improve is probably the fact that there’s no high chair, but understandable as I think the chef would want it to be quieter and the sofa seats could handle most kids as long as they’re not too little. Wait time could be long, but worth it.“

“I loved the beef tataki and spring roll!! I will definitely be going back!“

“Treat you like family Food is amazing“

“5 stars! My favorite ramen! I just love coming here for the spicy sesame and visiting with the super sweet owner :)“

“They have the best sushi & soups. One of the best sushi places I’ve been in the North Shore Area. It’s pretty private but my family goes every week and they treat customers like gold. The lobster salad is also amazing the food quality is truthfully great. 10/10 recommend!“

“Delicious fresh food! Great service.“

“We’ve been here multiple times, both for takeout and dine-in and the food is always outstanding and fresh. We’ve tried many different things on the menu, both sushi and Chinese food and everything is great. There is no reason to try any other restaurant- we’ve found our go-to place!!“

“Food is great and the staff is great especially the bartenders!“

“Good food, nice atmosphere!!“

“Best Chinese food ever!! drinks awesome...love the Lychee Martini...Best sushi, General Gau chicken, pork fried rice etc etc...always top notch food. it was very busy and service can be challenging but staff always smiling and tremendous efforts made. Thank you to all that made a wonderful meal“
