“Love 💕 the taste, great place to eat!“

“We (5 people) ate an early dinner here yesterday. Nice ambiance. We tried a large selection: edamame, ebi shumai, salmon onigiri, fried squid, ebi tempura, miso ramen, chicken katsu bento box, tonkotsu ramen, teriyaki don, red bean ice cream and sasadango. Everything was delicious. Our youngest liked it so much, we’re coming back for their birthday. Our server Natalie was wonderful also.“

“phenomenal food. great atmosphere“

“We have ordered several menu items, all superb. Thai Basil, Mongolian Stir Fry, Pepper steak, Szechuan, sushi….no bad choices!“

“This was our first time there and, Oh My Goodness, was it amazing! The portions were great, we ended up with some to take home. My spouse and I both had Tonkotsu Ramen. I had mine with Katsu pork and my spouse had beef and onions. We also had an order of the pan fried Gyoza and Taiyaki. Everything was so delicious! The Gyoza were just the right mix of crispy and tender. The Taiyaki was a nice sweet treat and the Ramen was a beautiful blend of flavors, rich, and creamy, and savory. I didn't ask, but the noodles taste homemade. We plan to return in the near future.“

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND! The food at Domo is excellent! Sushi is fresh and tasty, menu is creative, and the atmosphere is fun! We recently celebrated there with a big group, and everyone raved about the food and had such a great time. Staff was attentive and friendly too! So happy we chose Domo!“

“Great neighborhood take out restaurant. Chicken lo mein, crab rangoons, and won ton soup is really good. First time getting Mongolian chicken here- ordered medium spicey and that was great but other than that the chicken didnt have much flavor. Have ordered here before and likely will again.

“Order was ready super fast and the quality is superb! Love all the options available. Friendly staff and clean eat in/out area!“

“Absolutely amazing food and the sushi is the best I’ve had by far.“

“We get assorted food, not salty, this is key. We have been to many places and that is one of the main issues, you use salt to add flavor to the spice, not the other way around, very good.“

“First time dining. Crab Rangoon was incredible. Mongolian Beef Delish and Seaweed Cucumber Salad was fantastic. Generous portions“

“This is by far the best sushi in central Ohio. Able, fresh fish, atmosphere… everything you want out of a good sushi place. And the prices are VERY reasonable for Columbus. Big portions, big hearts. This place is the best.“

“The service is incredible, and the choices ARE AMAZING!“

“I ordered Ninja House Hibachi Express online and headed over to pick it up, blissfully unaware that the entire area had just lost power. When I walked in, the place was completely dark, the staff couldn’t see their online orders, and my food was—understandably—a mystery.

And yet… these absolute legends didn’t skip a beat. Sitting there in winter coats, in near pitch-black conditions, they still cooked my order anyway. No complaints, no hesitation—just pure, next-level customer service. If that’s not “customer first,” I don’t know what is.

And I haven’t even mentioned the food yet—which was fantastic, by the way. I was genuinely blown away by how kind, gracious, and determined the staff was. Power outage or not, they absolutely delivered. Outstanding experience all around.

Thank you!“

“Went here for a company lunch outing and overall had a great experience. The food and service were both solid—our party of 8 was well taken care of, and everyone enjoyed their meals. Our chef was friendly and entertaining, doing all the classic hibachi tricks and gags. While not quite as impressive as some chefs I've seen at other Japanese steakhouses, he still made it fun. The only downside was that they were actively training staff at the table directly behind us during our lunch, which felt a bit out of place and slightly distracting. Otherwise, a good spot for group dining.“

“I had a wonderful experience at Teryaki Chicken. Mary who is the Gm was the most wonderful and helpful individual. She makes the place light up! Mary gave me 1000 percent the best done in experience! Thank you Teryaki Chicken and Mary!!!🥰🙌🏼“

“Enjoyed my birthday dinner, our Chef Isaiah did a great job, food was delicious! Could have used drink refills a little more often especially with the price of drinks. It’s on the pricey end but with my birthday coupon it helped for sure. Fun special occasion dinner!“

“Excellent fresh sushi - the cherry blossom roll is my favorite! 🍣“

“Here’s a polished, high-relevance Google review you can post as-is, Carl:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
SAKURA Japanese Steak House was an awesome experience from start to finish. The hibachi-style cooking right in front of you makes it fun and engaging without feeling over the top.

I ordered the filet mignon (medium), chicken, and lobster — and hands down, the filet was one of the best steaks I’ve had in a long time. Cooked perfectly, tender, and full of flavor.

Even though the place is big and was very busy, it still felt personal and almost private at our table, which really stood out. Great atmosphere, great food, and a great overall experience.

Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to and recommending to others about this place.“

“Amazing food, full spectrum of Silk Road cuisines! Plan to order family style order lots of appetizers too.“

“Great place and flavorful food! First experience with the Chicken ramen and the staff was patient, accommodating and nice. Would come back again! Would love some rice noodle options though.“

“So fresh! I will be back!“

“Ordered my food online. They were right about the Green Pepper Beef being spicy & numbing/tingly lol. I definitely mistook which type of pepper being used. THAT BEING SAID: 10/10 would order again. Cleared out my sinuses, had PHENOMENAL flavor, tender and perfect. Every person I told I was ordering food from Coco's told me that it was a good choice-- it was the PERFECT choice. I will be back.“

“Great food always eat here great customer service“

“I went to the soft opening today and was blown away with how great everything was. From friendly counter staff to beyond amazing food! I can’t wait for the Grand Opening because all of my coworkers were jealous when I brought my food back to work. Also excited to take my family there! Great job all around!“

“Delicious, Fresh and Fast!“

“This was my first time ordering from this restaurant, I placed my order online and had it delivered. It was easy to place my order and I had regular updates on when my order would arrive. It was packed very securely! I was so excited about all the vegetarian options for rolls - they were all so delicious!“

“Ordered some lunch. I got the Curry Rice with Chicken, Sweet n Sour Chick w Rice, Crab Rangoons and the Edamame.
Curry Rice was meh, not a whole lot of flavor. Would be nice to get extra curry sauce on side (may ask for that next time). Sweet n Sour breading was good, rice was plain. Crab Rangoon was decent, I liked the dough better than the inside. And the edamame needed some salt unless you like it plain. I’ll order something else next time but for first time eating there it was okay.“
