The salmon roll was good. Not $14 good though. We waited a while for our food. It could've definitely come out faster but the two employees in the back were too busy talking and laughing. The guy at the register was super quiet, couldn't hear what he was saying and he just looked so over it.

Food was amazing and very worth the price for the portion size. They text you when it's done so you don't have to wait around.

I came to try this place. I placed my order at 1:01pm I spent $50 dllrs worth of food and 5
49 mins later, I still hadn’t gotten my food. My friends decided to go to the Filipino restaurant instead they got their food within 15 mins. They ate and and finished their meal. I was still waiting. They were at least 6 people waiting for their food as well.. this place is not fully staffed to serve the demand. The cashier had to text her manager to get my refund. Which she said it was going to take 24 hours and I had to wait til Khmer manager do it from her computer back home!? I will not be recommending this place to any of my friends I bring from Dallas or out of state this restaurant! The worst service ever. If I could give this restaurant zero stars I would!

Waited more than 45 mins for a hand roll and they still didn’t finish it . Bad customer service!! Wasn’t even informed about the wait when ordered the food. Had to cancel the order in the end…

We went here before a concert on Tuesday and our order wasn’t ready for 40 minutes and to top it off the food was horrible. The salmon on the poke bowl was frozen and like chewing on ice chips. It was served on top of undressed, plain lettuce and bland rice. The pork on the pork belly bowl was dry and tough and also served over plain lettuce & bland rice. The dumplings were mediocre and didn’t even come with a dipping sauce. What a waste of time and money!

1st came to this Post Hall. I was thinking to eat the south american food there, but East aide King took my wallet first.
Good portion for chicken katsu bowl! Price is abit on high end (could be lower abit) but well worth for the portion.
It was a quick serving.
I will be back for sure.

Spontaneously decided on this store. For a family with 5 children it is not always easy to find something that everyone is happy with. But everyone was happy here. Very tasty food and the friendliness was exceptional. We'll be back.

All of our food was delicious. We tried the chicken teriyaki dish, a dish with fried chicken on top of the rice and everything else that comes with it as well as the cheesecake Nutella egg rolls and everything was just fantastic. Fabi was so much help and very patient with all of the menu questions I asked. Thank you so much.

👍 The food "looked" appealing, which is what brought me here over the other options at POST.
👎 Unfortunately, ordering took a long time—even though I was the only person in line.
👎 They took my phone number to notify me when my order was ready, but after sitting near the kitchen for over 30 minutes, I still hadn’t received a text.
⚠️ **FOOD SAFETY HAZARD** While waiting, I noticed raw fish left out on the counter without refrigeration. The fish was not frozen and remained on the counter from the time I arrived until I left (pictured).
👎 Eventually, I went to check on my order, only to find there was no clear pickup area for customers.
⚠️ **FOOD SAFETY HAZARD** I spotted what looked like my order sitting on a different counter without a heat lamp (pictured).
👎 When I finally asked about it, the cashier turned and attempted to hand me the same food that had been sitting out. I raised my voice, requested a refund, and explained that I’d waited half an hour and couldn’t be sure how long the food had been left out. Despite a long line of customers when I asked for the refund, the area was empty by the time it was issued.
👎 I was informed my refund would take 48 hours to process.
⚠️ **FOOD SAFETY HAZARD** More than an hour later, that same raw fish was still sitting out (pictured, with receipt and time-stamp).

It took over half an hour to get our food which was a Philly , Cali, and Brussels sprout roll. When I commented on the time the person working the cash register tried arguing with me. If we would've known it would take that long we would've eaten somewhere else.

Ordered the Chicken Katsu Bowl. The small limited cucumbers blended well with the dish. Overall, it was good. Staff were straightforward. No recommendations or suggestions. Just took our order and made the food. Maybe it’s because we went on a Thursday and it was slow but having a small conversation can go a long way.
