“First time experience! Was amazing! Ray is by far the best waiter!! Very polite and attentive!! Will definitely go back!! Food was amazing!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I got a steak and mushrooms with fried rice and veggies. Everything was delicious and fresh. The restaurant was very clean and orderly.

Keep in mind that a surcharge is added to your bill . I think the surcharge was $7.?? I can't recall the cents.

I will be returning soon...😉“

“I thoroughly enjoyed my pork broth ramen (tonkotsu), but I highly suggest getting some of the spicy sauce and adding it to the broth if you like some heat with your noodles. The broth was creamy and flavorful, yet not too salty. It definitely warmed me up on a cold day.

I also got the pork katsu with cheese, and the portion was HUGE!!! The pork was tender with a crunchy texture on the outside. The sauce that came with the katsu added a nice touch in flavor.

You get a large portion for what they charge, and the service was quick and efficient. The interior was well kept and looks clean. I would totally come back when I’m in the area.“

“We had been meaning to stop into Sushi King for ages. It’s on our way to do our grocery shopping, so we see it weekly. But we would forget! Tonight, we made a point to remember, and we are so glad we did! We tried a basic cucumber roll and a spicy salmon roll. We also tried the vegetable roll, which is a little different as it contains lettuce, and a specialty roll, the Mango Roll. Oh, so good! The basics were tender and tasty. I enjoyed the vegetable roll with the crunch of the lettuce and other veg. The Mango Roll was outstanding! Highly recommend giving it a try! We also had seaweed salad, gyoza, and edamame, so we had a lovely meal. We should have taken pics, but we were ravenous and it all was too enticing to just look at!“

“Had an awesome experience there this evening with my family celebrating my son-in-law‘s birthday .The waitress was awesome. Food was delicious and the place was amazing . Love the bathrooms will return and recommend this to my friends.“

“My wife and I have been coming here for several years and we have always enjoyed the delicious food and especially the wonderful service! The staff is incredibly friendly and always remembers us even after long periods between visits (such as COVID and having kids).
I'm not a sushi guy myself, but they have the BEST chicken katsu dinner! Fried to perfection, generous portion sizes leave me satisfied every time.
My wife loves the spicy salmon roll, and tries to convince others to get it at each opportunity.
It's no coincidence they are celebrating 30 YEARS of top tier cuisine and service. Looking forward to many more years of memories and happy belly's!“

“This was our first time at Sushi Yes, and I’m so glad I chose this place to celebrate my girlfriend’s birthday. The rolls were absolutely delicious!

Before coming, I read a lot of reviews mentioning how fresh and flavorful the rice was—and they were right. We weren’t disappointed at all.

We got five rolls (each with 8 to 10 pieces), edamame, and calamari rings—all for just $50. Great value for such a tasty meal. Thank you, Sushi Yes!“

“Had amazing food and service we left full and very happy!! Thanks for a great lunch!!“

“I came in at what seemed to be a slower time. I was taken care of right away. Our server was great. I ordered Agedashi Tofu, and the house salad. My daughter ordered Chicken Teriyaki, we both got miso soup- which was not included in her meal which I thought was weird. Everywhere else I go it comes with. The soup was pretty bland, and was $6 each. Daughter liked her chicken teriyaki. I enjoyed my tofu. The salad was good, but I’ve never paid $8 for a little side salad before. All in all we had a pleasurable experience and liked the food. But I will likely not be back, I have many other spots that are more affordable.“

“delicious and great presentation“

“First time there today. Ordered a carry out- fast and efficient. Special today buy one get one free Yum Yum rolls. Delicious!! Miso soup also very good. Will definitely be back.“

“We ordered carry out hibachi from here. The steak, shrimp, veggies and noodles were all wonderful. The fried rice, however, was weirdly crunchy. Overall I would try it again. The staff was friendly and repeated the order back to me to ensure everything was correct.“

“Excellent service. Everyone was extremely nice and helpful. The Sushi was spot on.“

“The service is phenomenal - between the hostesses and chefs, it's a warm, cozy, and modern environment. We love the decor and the food is to DIE for. Everything is so fresh and flavorful, and it's our favorite sushi place to visit (we eat a LOT of sushi lol).

10/10, I tell everybody to go here if they want the best sushi around 💕“

“Fresh and tasty sushi was served with a great attitude and smile. Will be back!“

“Celebrated my birthday there with a party of 17 people. Service and food were excellent. Everyone loved it and everyone had to take some home as they give you plentiful portions.“

“Food is so good. This is a hidden gem. We found it completely on accident but I'm glad that we did. Definitely work visiting if you are in the area. i will be back and ill update this with more pictures and better knowledge of the food.“

“I eat at many very good restaurants. However, very few bring me joy. Neko Sushi brings me joy from the people to the food. That is why I return regularly.“

“We really recommend this restaurant! Very good and yummy food!“

“Everything is fresh and delicious“

“my favorite place to go. not just the amazing food but the whole atmosphere. they are always very nice and welcoming. this is a place I will always come back too. I've honestly been satisfied with everything I've tried but some of my favorites are the dragon roll, smokey and crispy, and the unaju.“

“Great, atmosphere and food! A real bonus with free crispy cheesecake for our birthdays“

“I am absolutely outraged with the behavior of the owner today at SOHO. My family and I went to this restaurant after Saturday little league games. We had 5 adults, 5 children and 2 babies. We have been to this restaurant countless times as a family. Today, after sitting and looking an menus, ordering drinks, we were met by the manager that came to our table and said “I’m sorry our limit is 8 people”. Confused, we asked for clarity because again, we have been to this restaurant countless times with the SAME group and number of people. In fact, we have NEVER been to this restaurant with less people. I asked, “wait are you saying we can’t eat here today because of the number of people?“ THAT is how confused I seriously was. The manager then responded, “Yes, I’m so sorry”. I pointed out to him that we had been sitting, getting ready to order for quite some time. Moments before this, the waiter came to take our orders but had to leave to grab us extra napkins. He said that his waiter called him all the way from his home because he couldn’t “do it” - referring to asking us to leave. There were quite a few other staff members there. So if this was a rule, why didn’t any of them point it out to the “new person” or let us know right away Of their “party limit”.? Please know we went on a Saturday around 330pm and there was two other parties in the entire restaurant - totaling only 5 other people. To me, if I had a party that was a few people over my “limit” I would not kick them out one, but definitely not when my restaurant is close to empty and the party has already been sat. Because of my “new team members” error- as a manager, I would have continued to serve this party. I need to point out that NONE of us in our entire lives have ever been asked to leave ANYWHERE. We are a Christian family of Pastors and ministers. I say this to speak to our character. There was no behavior on our end, that warranted this. I also pointed out that the table we were sitting at was DESIGNED for more than 10 people. We didn’t come into the restaurant moving tables and chairs together, the table was already set up for 12 people to sit there. I asked the manager why we were sat and waited on For all this time to then be kicked out? He claimed that the person who was our waiter was new and didn’t know their 8 people limit rule. I pointed out the fact that the table we were sitting at was set up for 12 And asked why that is if they had a limit of 8? He then said with our number of kids - it is not safe for them in the restaurant because their establishment serves alcohol. So first it was because our party was more than 8 and then it turned into being an issue with the number of kids? There is absolutely no reason for this behavior. To me, the only thing that makes any sense is it being racially discriminatory. I strongly urge you to no longer go to this restaurant. Of course, we left with no issue because if we are not welcome or wanted because of race or any other invalid reason- we don’t want to eat at the restaurant anyways. But point of my review is to prevent this from happening to anyone else. we used to love this place and our entire family would come. never again, even with 2 people will I step foot in this establishment and I will strongly encourage everyone I know and everyone that’s reading this to do the same.“

“they were super fast and the waiters took time to assist several tables who were new to the menu and had no idea what anything was. the staff was all super friendly and accommodating!“

“I’ve never had a bad experience here at Yoshii. I always get the $10 meal deal because it makes smart economical sense. It’s a different protein each day so you truly get to switch it up but getting that delicious rice and spring roll. You truly don’t need the sauce because the seasoning is so on point.
Let me also say, the containers are perfect for work lunch time storage. 😁
And one added bonus is, that stunning young lady that works there from time to time.
Again, the food is A1 , price is unbeatable, & service is top notch. One of my favorite restaurants to eat at. Thank you for the great experience.“

“Food was delicious and was done in about ten minutes at 1130 on a Sunday morning. Service was extremely friendly. Would definitely go here again.“

“Love this place. Always a winner, every time.“

“Pudthai Sushi is one of my absolute favorite local spots for both sushi and Thai cuisine. The ingredients are always incredibly fresh and every dish is full of flavor. Whether I’m stopping in for a quick dinner or grabbing takeout, the service is consistently fast, friendly and reliable. The sushi rolls are beautifully prepared and never disappoint. Love their Pad Thai too!! A neighborhood gem that always delivers.“

“Very good food !! Clean place. Great Staff !! Incredible Sushi !!!“

“Amazing turnaround and great experience!

I stopped by Hibachi 2 Go today and was honestly impressed from start to finish. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted right away, and the team member helping me (Cam) was patient, polite, and super helpful. He answered all my questions, told me about the 20% off special, and even showed me my food before packing it up to make sure everything looked perfect.

The atmosphere felt friendly and everyone seemed happy to be there and the food was delicious! Great customer service makes all the difference. I’ll definitely be back!“

“first time there last night and it was amazing!“

“Great customer service and quick service. I had the curry rice bowl and my son had the spicy ramen noodles with chicken.“

“Great place, great owners and one of the best spots for sushi around...“

“Delicious food, reasonably priced, beautiful decor, friendly staff.“

“Sushi, sushi and let me say it again SUSHI! Treat yourself to Hi Sushi anytime, but consider trying it during their lunch specials, less than $11 for two sushi rolls!?! Wait and even better the lunch specials run on Saturdays!?! Recommendation: Please call & visit their website for the specific times and days the lunch specials are offered because the menu could be changed. The Sushi was so tasty, that I had it for dinner! On the second occasion, I went inside and the staff was friendly. Cannot wait to dine in next time because the atmosphere was inviting. Recommendation: Deep Fried Spicy California Roll and California Roll, both were equally delicious! If you want a bomb of flavor on your tongue, make sure to dab a little wasabi and ginger slice too. God Bless Hi Sushi!“

“Why are people sleeping on Tokyo Sushi?? We recently stumbled on this gem and can’t seem to stay away! Their sushi is fantastic, and the value is unbeatable. Run by the sweetest family who always makes us feel welcome. Can’t say enough about how great this restaurant is!!“

“First visit. Sushi was very fresh and delicious. Rolls were small by comparison to other places. Service was slow considering only a few customers when we arrived. Very reasonably priced. Quaint atmosphere. We would go again to try other choices based on the freshness of our order.“

“This place is awesome! such friendly staff, food was beyond amazing and place was really clean! will definitely be back.“

“Clean, good service and happy staff. Most of all good food…“

“I came to Michigan from NC to have a mini vacation with friends. We made plans to come here and had been looking forward to it for months. IT WAS SO AMAZING. We had one of the original Cloud Cakes (dressed up with Nutella and berries) a key lime cheesecake, and a dulce de leche cheesecake. Everything was phenomenal. The staff were very sweet and patient, answering all of our questions. 5 stars all the way!“

“Excellent sushi and they are super close by our new shop!“

“Awesome place for Karaoke 🎤! Definitely feels like going back to asia! And the staff is soo very friendly and nice! We had such a great time! Thank you soo much! 🫶🏻🤗💕🙌🏻“

“It's always a beautiful experience“

“Been going to teriyaki madness in the past but stopped after awhile to try other places. So I was in the area and decided to go in and order some food. Was not disappointed but felt it could have been better. I don't know what other reviews are saying but the wait time was reasonable.Service was good. Now the price for my food was reasonable considering everything has been going up in price since the last time I visited. Now my only complaint is probably just the quality of the food was not what I remembered when I ordered last time but that could be just my memory. Still good overall.“

“Had a great meal with a great show. Everything was cooked well and tasted good. The soup was delicious, the fried rice was done perfectly and the shrimp was not overcooked!

Kid-friendliness: Was good with appropriately including the kids in the show!“
