“Great food and service!!!“

“Wow. Just stopped on a hungry tare.
I got a U2 roll after looking at a lot on the vast menu. I must say I was extremely pleased and somewhat surprised. It was very good. I very much enjoy Sushi as often as I can. While this spot is a bit off my regular path. If I'm at all close, I will stop and see what else they do, so we'll.“

“We have always gone here for any celebrations and had a great experience. Tonight was good but not great. We were a party of 12 and made reservations. Once we were all seated it was like we were rushed to leave. Ordered drinks which too longer than normal. Order two plates of sushi and they came mid way through our meal. Cooking started before soup or salad. Once the cooking was done. Boxes came out but we were celebrating our granddaughter’s 7th birthday. So was asked if we could get something for her. Took a little bit but ice cream, candle and singing but there were 5 other kids at the table who wanted ice cream too. Asked for them to have some and waited 20 minutes. It was such an odd experience. We will go back but please slow down Hanzo! This is what we pay for…a nice evening out. To give a time frame, we sat down at 435 and we were done at 530 but then waited for ice cream.“

“always a great meal ken and his wife are super friendly and funny great atmosphere and if your alone sit at the bar great conversation“

“This was my first time trying smoked salmon and it was so delicious!!! It melted like butter to the bite. Create Your Own Salad: Chicken Breast, Smoked Salmon, Smoked Bacon, Avocado, Mesclun mix, Carrots, Corn, Cucumbers, Grape Tomatoes, Red Onions, Shallots dressed with Chipotle Aioli (sauce). I sadly forgot to take pictures of the Honeydew Bubble Tea (24oz ice) with Strawberry Boba and the Wild Berries Crepe (regular with extra Pocky Sticks. I was so caught up eating the salad that by then I forgot my crepe & tea in the fridge. Lol. The crepe is "Sliced strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, vanilla custard cream, whipped yogurt, chocolate pearls, granola." It is so fruity, bright and very creamy! The entire meal was fulfilling and good food.“

“We had a lovely family gathering in the Tatami room. Food was delicious & service was wonderful. It was a delightful afternoon. Great way to say goodby to the pandemic. Thanks Jackie!“

“This place is amazing. I didn't know what to expect going in to the all you can eat restaurant. I was happily surprised that it's not buffet style. Servers and bussers. The restaurant is nicely styled and comfortable. The greeters and wait staff couldn't have been kinder or more professional. $28.99 is worth every penny just for that. The longest we had to wait between orders was no more than 5 minutes. The food was fresh, perfectly presented and absolutely delicious! I really can't find the superlatives to describe it. Everything combined made this experience one of the best outings I've ever had. I HIGHLY recommend this place.“

“Came cause The.Tati.Edit on tiktok recommended this place and Wow this place is amazing. Everything tasted fresh and the price for the all you can eat is such a deal! The atmosphere was perfect as well. Peaceful pop music was playing and Yuki stole the show. She was so funny warm and inviting, that I can't wait to come back to see her again. 10/10 , definitely coming back!“

“The best service, the best sushi in the best drinks I recommend for everyone to try shogun“

“My husband and I absolutely love Samurai. The food is fresh and delicious and the owner is the nicest guy. Highly recommend!“

“Kobe Hibachi definitely knows how to impress! I came for hibachi, but the real star of the show ended up being their poke bowl. Fresh, vibrant, and absolutely loaded with toppings, it felt like a treasure chest of deliciousness. Every bite was bursting with flavor, and the portion size was surprisingly huge, especially for such a reasonable price. It’s the kind of bowl that makes you feel like you’re winning at life.

The staff was super friendly, and the atmosphere had that lively hibachi energy that makes dining out feel fun again. If you’re craving something fresh, filling, and full of personality, treat yourself to the poke bowl here. Kobe Hibachi just earned itself a new regular! 🍣🔥“

“I ordered a hibachi chicken, which allows you to choose fried rice and fried noodles freely. I chose fried rice. You can also choose half fried rice and half fried noodles, which is simply great. The portion is large, and the chicken is surrounded by juice and is simply delicious. The staff is very kind and warm. Come and try something else next time. They also have sushi and poke bowl.“

“The food is delicious! The boba tea (I got Taro) is not too sweet, but a perfect balance. The boba (tapioca pearls) were flavorful too. The ramen soup is scrumptious. So many different flavors. I can’t fit it all in, great portions. The pork is juicy and crispy and flavorful. Eggs are perfectly cooked. This was my second time here, getting the same thing, because it’s so good! It was a little on the expensive side (12.50 for the pork ramen, 6.50 for the boba) overall, 5 stars.“

“Arigato this place was good“

“The food and the drinks 🍸. They will knock you on your rump roast....“

“Best sushi I've ever had!“

“very nice staff and owner is very kind. try the toro tuna belly sashimi... it is the best I have eaten in all of the usa“

“Food is great, probably one of the best things I've tasted in a while after moving to Troy. Been urging to eat something more flavorful and this restaurant definitely satisfied that, the price is just right and the employees are amazing.“

“Sapporo beer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“We enjoy ourselves every time we come .. especially on our anniversary“

“Amazing food. Staff go above and beyond. Best sushi and Asian food in the Capitol Region.“

“The only place open late for Chinese food so happily drove from Clifton Park. Delicious food although ordering online was a tad confusing as I thought I ordered the udon noodle dinner and it ended up being a soup which was still good. Would order “

“We were on our way back to Boston from the midwest and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place than this.

Food was great, service was great, they receive you with amazing green tea and miso soup which were delicious, sushi chef was always wearing gloves and restrooms were perfectly clean.

Great, great, great.“

“Tried the Curry Chicken Spicy Ramen here and it was fantastic. The broth was rich, flavorful, and had just the right amount of heat without being overwhelming. The shredded chicken was tender, the noodles were perfectly cooked, and the half-boiled egg added a nice creamy balance to the spice. The portion size is generous, and it’s definitely a hearty, comforting meal. If you enjoy bold flavors and a good kick of spice, this one’s worth ordering.“

“I ordered a Spicy Salmon roll and a Philadelphia roll. They were excellent. Also ordered some wonton soup and shrimp spring rolls. Wonton filling was a little fattier than I like, but everything was good. Definitely ordering sushi from here again.“

“Simply the best Thai restaurant in upstate New York! Love their crispy calamari! And their Pad See Eew is amazing, and their customer service is very lovely. Considering I’m Thai, this place is one of the most authentic Thai restaurants I have had here in America. Please come and support this lovely restaurant! Will definitely visit again, having been going every month since I moved here for work in upstate New York. 11/10!“

“we love tengu asian bistro! it's our favorite place for sushi! especially today...I think we received the best grab Rangoon ever!! idk what is different about it, but it almost tastes like there's a coconut flavor in them as well as the dipping sauce. they were great to begin with, but whatever was done differently today was even better, keep doing it!“

“Great Friendly service, we have been going for years“

“Never have had a bad meal from there. We get lunch from there once a week and everything has been amazing. Best sweet potato sushi ever! The beef ramen I had today was phenomenal! We love this place!“

“Fresh Fresh Fresh....you can tell the difference in the taste.“

“This sushi place is a must visit for an amazing sushi in the area. The quality is truly impressive and it was definitely one of the best sushi experiences I've had in a while. The service was attentive but the staff could improve on their friendliness and welcoming demeanor to make customers feel more at ease.“
