The hibachi shrimp is always amazing, if raw sushi is not your thing, you have to try the Donald Duck roll. Our family loves it if you’re OK with your sushi not cooked the North Carolina roll is awesome.! 10 out of 10!

Love Little Tokyo! Their service is good and the food is amazing! I recommend Shrimp & Veggie Hibachi and the Osaka sushi roll. They have a good atmosphere for eat in options, but it is also a great place to call in sushi and pick up. No matter which way I have ever ordered from them, it has all been so good. When you eat in, they give soap, salad, and free ice cream with entrees, which is such a treat for the kids. They have SO MANY sushi roll options, whether you are a long-time sushi fan or just looking to try for the first time. It's my favorite place in our little town to enjoy Japanese food.

The food is great, no doubt! The prices seem high, but you get a ton of food. They've run out of egg rolls the last 2 times ordering here, annoying because, again, they are really good too and complete the meal. Take out service is usually ok, but last time I sat at the window for 10 mins (arriving right on time) while tons of folks walked right by my ready food bag just looking at me and fiddling around. It was as if only one person in the whole place is capable of taking money and handing out a bag in less than 10 seconds...that's how long it took once that one person finally showed up. Having a backup window person or a few shared responsibilities would go a long way service wise.

This was the first time I’d ever been in, was pleasantly surprised by the portions and the quality of the food for the price. We ordered a kids meal for my mother-in-law, teriyaki chicken, fried rice, with carrots, no mushrooms and no broccoli. It was excellent! And it was more than enough. She had leftovers actually which is pretty cool for kids meal.We ordered the bang shrimp and the bang bang chicken, and it was fabulous! Loved the flavor, cooked perfectly, and it definitely was fresh and the portions were enough for two of us to eat with a side of fried rice.We will definitely be back to this location as well as others closer to home.Wish the service had been a little more positive, but we were there for the food and it was pretty cool. They had the electronic trees and either corner and that was actually quite nice because the leaves/lights faded in and out gently. My mother-in-law really liked them.

On 02/05 I placed an order for pick-up. My first complaint is when I arrived the doors were locked I can look past this but, I consumed the sushi that night it tasted a little off but I was like ok whatever I’ve had better. Not even 4 hours later I started violently throwing up all night long and went to the bathroom several times. Throughout the night I had a high fever of 103.5 and it stayed steady I decided to go to the ED after a day of suffering and they informed me I had food poisoning. So I guess if you want a week off from work and a expensive hospital visit go here for sushi will not disappoint.

Only reason I'm not giving five stars is I wasn't able to experience the restaurant because I didn't want to keep them late so I ordered a to go sushi. I was told the place had some of the better sushi in the area. The sushi was good. I really enjoyed the sauce they gave us. That was one of my favorites. The shrimp tempura was pretty plain. But luckily the other two rolls that the person recommend were favorable. The fried Dumplings were average. I would definitely go again. The staff were very friendly. Even after saying I would've preferred to dine in to make them stay later the lady at the desk said no it's fine if you want to stay. They also recommended different rolls which was nice.

Just not that great anymore, needs a good clean and food quality upgrade. Staff is good. Food, over cooked or lacking flavor. Maybe things aren't fresh? I don't know. Just know I'd rather drive further to get better quality.Shrimp wasn't devained on tempura. Gross.Piles of dust sitting on so much stuff including air vents. Mmmm. Little bit of spice on my food?
