“This place was amazing! We ordered a bunch of appetizers and 2 entrees and everything was the best Asian food we’ve ever eaten. The serving was amazing. We will be in Nashville 2 more days and are trying to figure out how many more times we can eat here!“

“Very good food good restaurant“

“Hands down the best sushi in town. The owner is amazing and always greets me by name when I walk in. She truly makes it feel like home. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and made with care. If you have not tried it yet, you are missing out.“

“Hands down the best! I can sum up this place with one word, that is Tony. Not #TonyVitello but Tony the owner and superstar sushi chef. I have personally seen him cut sushi for country superstars the same as he prepares for my kids. His "slogan" is "see you tomorrow" and I truly believe he means that to everyone that walks through his door. Thank you Tony!“

“Great food, friendly staff, close to everything“

“Good food and always consistant.“

“Some of the best food I’ve ever put in my mouth. Literally ate this cold. Best food I’ve literally put in my mouth. The fried rice is so flavorful, the shrimp tempura is crispy and delicious, the California rolls are super fresh, and salad with ginger dressing is so good.

Vegetarian options: I the California roll is so good and tastes so good. It feels so clean & it’s great“

“Fantastic meal! Love the menu. We sat outside but beautifully elegant ambience inside. About an hour or so before we walked over to eat I stopped in and got a menu and the ladies at the hostess podium were super kind. When we came back we were again met by a very helpful employee, Delilah. She sat us immediately and ended up being our server for the meal. She was thorough and knowledgeable. The service and the meal were perfect! We will absolutely be regularly returning and we will be requesting Delilah every time. Great experience and I would highly recommend this place to anyone! P.S.- They do lunch from 12-3pm, happy hour (including apps) from 3-6pm. And apparently they have a rooftop (kid friendly) open on Friday & Saturday evenings until 12am.“

“The weekday lunch specials from 11am-3pm and the expansive choices they offer under their specials cannot be beat! It’s a delicious and satisfying prix fix meal in an old world Japanese setting complete with aquarium and Japanese lanterns. The service is also excellent!“

“Excellent spot for a quick sushi lunch.
Great service.
I got the 2 roll lunch special and edamame. That's a lot for $20!
Everything tasted fresh and came out at the appropriate temperature.
I'll be back!“

“This fried chicken we got was next level DELICIOUS, from the breading, to the chicken seasoning, and that special sauce it came with. Yum!!! Highly recommended! The portion is large and priced reasonably. We found this place online and was skeptical at first since it’s not a traditional set up restaurant, turned out to be such a hidden gem! You can find many different restaurants in this food hall. We can’t wait to come back and try more food soon“

“The first experiences weren't the best. Showing up with no cars at all. Walking into a completely dead restaurant, including zero employees. We ordered. Had a good selection. After we ordered. There was a huge water bug walking across the floor. But the food came. And it was actually really good. Well prepared and pretty quickly. All our food was delicious. Water and tea tasted bad. But that's not uncommon, I've noticed. They did quit a few to go orders while we were there. The food was good enough I'd visit again“

“Old school japanese restaurant. 👍👍“

“We stumbled upon this place by chance and decided to order takeout -- and we're so glad we did! From that very first experience, we were impressed not only by the flavorful food but also by the warm hospitality of the owners. They were incredibly helpful and kind, even with just a takeout order, which left a lasting impression.

The service was quick, but the quality of the food certainly didn't suffer. Everything we tried was packed with flavor and clearly made with care. The chicken pad Thai and vegetable green curry quickly became our favorites -- both dishes had depth of flavors and were absolutely delicious.

The food alone is enough to bring anyone back, but the inviting atmosphere and genuine hospitality really elevate the experience. We can't wait to dine in very soon!“

“We love Kirin sushi and hibachi. Owners are great and product is fresh. We eat there at least once a week. Let's make sure to support this place in Antioch so it will stay around for a longtime.“

“I absolutely adore this restaurant! This was my first time here and Chloe gave me the GREATEST recommendations!! I started with the spicy korean wings & then tried the Atlantic Roll which I LOVED both! I thought the service was friendly and loved the atmosphere overall! I would also try a Sapporo beer while you’re there(: Thanks Chloe for the wonderful experience!!“

“The Hibachi Grill was really fun! Our grill master was very entertaining! The fillet and chicken was cooked to perfection! Our server was great! I'm rating my first time 5 stars!“

“Food here is amazing and I love the coupon they have on the back of my local Kroger Register tapes. Great to save money now I can go more often. Thank you“

“This place was an absolute surprise for just a random roadside noodle shop. The Beef Teriyaki- Yaki-Style bowl is a great combination of pan fried noodles and sweetly slathered beef strips with crispy veggies and the chicken pot stickers are some of the best quality I've ever had at ANY Asian restaurant. The service was great even though there is a definite language barrier there at the register. Just as a random afterthought I enjoyed the muti-fork-chopstick utensil idea. Even though my trusty sidekick was more useful after one or two bites.“

“Been my favorite for 27 years ,great service and wonderful food . My granddaughter's favorite after school ," let's grab a snack " ,speaks volumes.“

“Oka was our cook and Nicole our waitress and the experience was1000% beyond what we expected. One individual in our party never had filet Mignon and they exceeded our expectations. We have personally have been going there for over 28 yrs and they never cease to amaze us“

“I absolutely love their chicken basil fried rice!! It is so delicious!! Every time we come in the staff is always super nice, and they get the food out quickly!!! My fiancee and I absolutely love this place, we eat it a couple of times a week!!!“

“The chicken Ramen and Nashvegas Sushi Roll was everything I needed. The sushi roll friend then topped with spicy crab 10/10“

“My go to sushi spot in Nashville. I eat here whenever I’m in town. They changed their menu recently, and have added on some Korean offerings, my wife got the spicy ramen and I got sushi and Pork Tonkatsu with the seafood udon combo.
everything we got was delicious.“

“Great service, AMAZING food. Such a fun experience every time we go“

“Awesome Japanese fare in a cozy little place! The people are very nice, give large portion sizes, and the service is very fast. It's affordable and near Vandy campus as well which is a plus. They also recently expanded the menu, so there's lots of good selection.“

“HUGE portions. I ordered the Lo Mien with chicken and vegetables. My wife got the beef teriyaki with vegetables. Got the Tempura vegetables super large. Big enough for 2+. Everything was delicious and hot. Definitely coming back. Service was top notch and order came out quickly. Well done Sakura!“

“Did not disappoint. Finally a restaurant in Nashville that delivered on all levels. Amazing meal and service from start to finish. Definitely one of the top meals of my life. Every bite was delicious and the pairings are on point. Get in while you can.“

“If you like sushi, come to Bodeli. Personable staff and amazing fresh sushi.“

“This was my first time here. I really enjoyed my food. I should have asked them to add some spice/heat to my dish because I like it spicy. This was flavorful but definitely not spicy. Probably my fault for not reading the menu closely enough to see that it was not a spicy dish. 🤷🏾‍♂️👌🏾 I had the shrimp and scallops teriyaki, which I know, I know teriyaki is not usually spicy, but I like spicy. Overall I would say the experience was very good and I will definitely go back. The price point for everything that I saw on the menu was very moderate and quite affordable and the portions were very generous. I was very impressed by the quantity of shrimp and scallops that I had on my plate. It might not be that evident from my quick photograph but there was a more than generous helping of seafood. One day I'll go back and try some of their sushi. Definitely check this place out if you were unsure or have not made it inside yet.“
