Honest Review
We got a pu pu platter for two and chicken lo mein and neither of us were happy with it. Boneless spareribs were very dry and very small, and overcooked. The beef teriyaki was also very dry and lacked flavor. The egg rolls just straight up tasted weird (we couldn’t get past two bites of the egg rolls) The lo mein was overcooked, mushy and also super dry. The only things we didn’t mind were the crab Rangoon and the chicken fingers. My fiance said the chicken wings tasted like bleach. $40 worth of food and we were not impressed at all. Not only was everything pretty bland, the food was cold and we got the feeling it was sitting out for hours. Definitely won’t be coming back.

The food was amazing, I had California roll with raw fish on top and the spicy edamame was amazing. Kenny Cruz (sorry if I misspelled) was a wonderful wait person whose recommendations were spot on. I’m from NY but would frequent this restaurant often if I lived closer. Worth the trip.

Our family of four gets takeout from this place on a regular basis, nearly every week. We find the service to be fast and friendly, and the food (especially the japanese apps, noodle dishes, and sushi) to be fresh, consistent, and tasty. They even have a vegan roll (faux tuna with tempura sweet potato) and soy paper options. My kids love their mei fan dish and edamame. There always seem to be plenty of people sitting at the bar, so I suspect the drinks are good, too.
