“If you are looking for delicious Japanese food, you must try Nishiki! We’ve ordered sushi and sashimi here countless times, for years now, and it’s ALWAYS fresh and tasty. Some of our favorites are the Tuna Cappacio, Ninja Roll, Jonas Roll, and the Rensselaer Roll. Our kids like the Shrimp Tempura Roll and the Philadelphia Roll. The miso soup is great and so is the Pink Lady Roll! Haha… we love it here. This little gem is run by the sweetest local family, especially Queena, who is always so friendly. Maybe it’s because she knows how good their food is! ?❤️??“

“Really surprised by the quality and portion of the food. The food I ordered was all so good! No extra charge for pricey ingredients like avocado which was nice. Very friendly staff too. The soup that came with my rice bowl also tasted great. Too bad I don't live in the area but I'd recommend this place to anyone who needs a quick bite!“

“Shogun in Delmar is our go to sushi restaurant. We usually take out, but occasionally dine in. The service is exceptional here. They truly go out of their way to make your experience a good one. The food, whether it be sushi or other things is always good. It's always tasty and fresh. If they have the Korean Surf & Turf roll as a special, GET IT! Trust me on this. It's in the top 5 things I've ever eaten. I wish it was a regular menu item. My other favorite roll is the Golden dream. The Pink Panther roll is great too.“

“I love Thai food! This place has lots of options in their menu. I always order pad see ewe. My first impression is it is not appetizing sine the noodles are nit the usual thicker noodles. The noodles are thinner and seems less soy sauce. But when I tried it, I cant stop eating. It is very tasty, just the right flavor. They put a lot of meat and veggies. You can order lunch portion or dinner portion so that’s a plus depending how hungry you are. The Tom Yum is so yummy as well. Not too sour and the medium spiciness is perfect for my taste buds. The lady who served us is really nice and welcoming. Parking could be a problem since it could only accomodate 4.“

That fish under the sesame seeds is a slab of miso black cod.... incredible and worth the price all by itself!“

Love anything with spicy salmon inside and they have some excellent special rolls with spicy salmon in them. Great service too. It’s a little bright in there, that’s the only thing I didn’t like. Also very loud, but you could expect that considering it’s a busy, popular place.“

“I have never cared for crepes; it's the one thing that I would never order. But my boyfriend is a huge fan of crepes, so of course, he convinced me to go to T-Swirl.And T-Swirl has literally changed the way I see crepes forever heheI LOVE T-Swirl crepes. They're delicious, the mix of flavors is just wow, big portions, and it's just a fun flavor party in my mouth. I've ordered their sweet crepes - the chocolate nut party and the matcha chocolate truffles crepe. I don't even like matcha, but I find myself always going for that specific item because the flavors are insane.Recently, I wanted to try a savory crepe, and I had the Okinawa Hot Dog, and I was just like wow, why have I avoided crepes all my life, hahaha. I also love that T-Swirl has the calories listed for each item and has options for two sizes!The ambiance of the place is cute, chill, and small. It's definitely going to be one of the places I visit more frequently now!“

“Unagi is the BEST Sushi place in the area! During the Coronavirus Pandemic, they were closed for a few months and my partner and I were forced to eat from other Sushi places and ugh. None of the other sushi places on the East side of the River are as friendly, fresh, or as customer-minded as these guys. We went to other other places where the portions were skimpy, food wasn't fresh, they forgot our chopsticks, soy sauce was expired, poor customer service, etc. We've NEVER had any issue with Unagi. Every time we order out or dine in the experience is a 10/10. My partner and I used to live 10 mins away from Unagi and we would get it about once a week. Now that we live closer to 30 mins away, while we may not get it once a week, we will definitely make the drive for Unagi. Nothing else compares. My favorite is the 50 & 50 Roll :)“

My husband had a roll with steak which he liked. The drinks were just okay, a little inconsistent. My husband wasn't in love with his first drink so he got a Blackberry Margarita (which was my first) and it was good but it didn't match my drink at all.“

“The sushi I had was delicious. The sweet n sour chicken was the best we'd ever eaten. However, my kani salad was sad. There was barely any crab at all. It was a bowl full of luttuce with barely any crab that was mixed with crunch. Kani salad should be very little lettuce with plenty of crab and crunch. I would've given 5 starts if kani salad was worth the price. Everything else was fabulous. We will definitely be going back.“

“I am not a Chinese food person. However, I actually enjoy this restaurant. So far, I have tried the house fried rice, house noodles, orange chicken, curry chicken, chicken Satay and crab rangoon. I actually think crab rangoon was tasty and crunchy. It has authentic flavor. I thought the curry chicken was flavorful and not heavy. I say my fave so far is the house noodles. It has all beef, chicken and seafood. I also want to mention, the portions are huge and the price is reasonable. I have only had take outs but I will be a repeat customer. I would recommend as Chinese food go, there is above average.“

We had about 56 people that evening and he assured us he could accommodate that many people.We arrived at our reservation time and only had to wait a few minutes for the tables to clear. They gave us the whole upper dining room, basically 4 hibachi tables. Everything was fantastic! Service, food and experience. The team and parent had so much fun that evening. I cant thank Lou and the team at Koto for taking great care of us. We will be back again!“
