“The sushi is always the freshest, whether talking about the salmon, tuna, wrappers, fruit, avocados, whatever the ingredients are it is the freshest! The staff are amazing, whether hostess, wait staff, Sushi chefs, even the bus crew everyone is friendly and professional. Patrick is eager to tell you about the food as much as he is about how he and the rest of the chefs have all been friends for years. This is the type of place that you keep going back because it is always amazing!“

“I consider myself very well versed in sushi. It’s my favorite food and I could eat it everyday for the rest of my life. 😂
Zumi is top tier in every way. Food, service, ambiance. All of it!!! Just go! You will not regret. They also have a great cocktail and sake selection. Cheers!“

“Absolutely blown away from the quality of the salmon 🍣. It was buttery tender and delicious 🤤. This place is now my regular.“

“My husband and I love this Japanese restaurant. They have a variety of Japanese dishes, and a delicious desert option. The chicken teriyaki and sushi rolls are the best, and the deserts are delicious. Great variety of sakes as well. We recommend!!“

“We have Celiac disease, and they do great with gluten free options. We’ve been twice - both the food and the service are amazing!“

““We truly enjoy the food and appreciate the owner’s warm, personable, and down-to-earth communication style.”“

“Great food and awesome atmosphere. I’ve been to Japan half a dozen times and this is just like an Izakaya in Japan and the food is very similar, maybe even better. Just keep in mind you might have to wait 30 min if you’re here in the evening. Whatcha gonna do though, it’s a good place and good food, so you gotta wait.“

“We had so much fun going here for a day date! Our server Tong had great recommendations for rolls and wine. We also got to try a new roll that wasn’t on the menu yet. Amazing food and atmosphere!“

“Our server Casey was exceptional! We had 19 & a baby. Everyone's order was exact! She's phenomenal! The food... So incredible! Everyone at this place is amazing from our waitress to the chef. I sure hope these people stay in business. They made Mother's Day and 2 birthdays wonderful!! Hats off to them!!!♥️“

“I brought my mom here for lunch yesterday. The waiter that served us had kind of a crappy attitude honestly. In some moments he was nice but my mom asked what comes on a bento box because she's unfamiliar and he told her "it's on the menu". She just wanted someone to explain it to her because she was confused by the sushi and the meat options. Obviously not an item she orders often. She asked what the meat is for (i think she thought you get sushi or meat she wasn't understanding it was a part of the box) and he looked at her like she was stupid and pretty flatly answered the question. It embarrassed her. My mom is a really kind hearted person so it was frustrating watching someone make her feel dumb for asking a question in an unfamiliar environment. Sad. The food itself was good. The waiter likely was having a bad day. I've been a server and understand. But wish he'd been kinder to my mom.“

“Had a great experience at Nori Sushi! The sushi was fresh, and flavorful. Everything we ordered tasted amazing, and the portions were generous. The service was also friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was clean, comfortable, and perfect for a casual meal or dinner with friends and family!!“

“Been here three times now and everytime it’s a 12/10 experience. It’s family owned, so the staff is so incredibly kind as well. They really care about their food and service, would recommend over everything else in the area and even compared to some of the nicest sushi spots I’ve eaten at.“

“We first heard about this place on social media. We were a little skeptical to try it, but decided to give it a chance. We shouldn't have waited! The all you can eat menu had many options to choose from. Everything looked and tasted delicious! We will definitely be back. The great service and clean environment were a plus too.“

“Excellent food and very good service.“

“*Surprising place, in a good way! Unique Japanese spot, easy to get to. Tons of sushi n roll options. Nice drinks choices too. Relaxing place, plenty of seating. Yummy egg rolls, and other great appetizers. Lots of food options to choose from. 🥢🍜🍸“

“Special food all time , we will be back“

“We absolutely love our favorite sushi spot because of the amazing food and the super friendly staff! We’re greeted personally every time we walk in, and they make sure we feel special until we leave. The sushi is always incredibly fresh and beautifully presented. We go there for special occasions and also as our regular sushi spot. It’s such a great experience!“

“Walking in I was immediately greeted and sat to the bar. Once ordered, the food took very little time to come out, and the salad and miso soup came out nearly right away. I recommend the Bento Box if you're looking for enough food to save for later at an exceptionally low price!
Prices are fair if not the most affordable options around.
Great first experience, and will definitely recommend to others!“

“Food is awesome! We will be back.“

“Itoko Sushi and Ramen is easily one of my favorite local spots! The ramen broth is super flavorful and rich, and the sushi is always fresh and beautifully prepared. The staff is super friendly, the food comes out fast, and the prices are great for the quality you get. 10/10 would definitely recommend!“

“Excellent service , friendly service & yummy food“

“The sushi and nigiri were excellent! You can tell that the owner is very passionate about his craft. We will be regulars there!“

“My first time here and I def will be going back! I ordered the sushi lunch special and it’s such a good amount of food for only $13. I was pleasantly surprised they did lunch on the weekends! The gentleman that handed me my ordered was extremely kind. I def will be back“

“Delicious food, great servings. Stumbled on this spot looking for an early dinner near my hotel and really hit the spot. It gives a Tokyo eatery vibe. I had the beef Bulgarian with rice, calamari for appetizer and you get access to a free mini salad bar, that has cucumber salad, potato salad, bean sprout salads along with some other stuff. I loved the cucumber salad and the bean sprout salad. Great value and great portion sizes. Definitely give them a try. Went on a Sunday afternoon and there was lots of free parking. Its located in a strip mall.“

“Place was amazing. Service was amazing. Highly recommend this place. We celebrated our 28th Anniversary there tonight.“

“The best teriyaki in DFW area! Great taste and fresh food with a good portion size for the price. Even during the lunch hour, the service is quick and friendly. Highly recommend this place!“

“The staff here is extremely friendly. The place was clean the food was decent. I have had better sushi, I ordered the daily bento, but their prices are very reasonable and with how friendly they are it is worth eating here. I came by myself for lunch.

I'm only passing through the area, but if I had the opportunity to come back I would definitely try other options on the menu as I think that might rate even higher.“

“I've come here every once and a while off and on for about a decade, the service is always amazing and the food is always great, I was torn about leaving a review that was in poorer taste because this is a really amazing place to eat. I've noticed lately though the portion sizes are diminishing, I ordered the OMG appetizer with jalapeno, cream cheese, crab, ect, (half of the portion I got was already gone by the time I took the photo) and it's delicious! Definitely worth getting, but I was just a little disappointed that all the sticks are about the size of my pinky finger, definitely a one bite and done kind of deal. And in the Philadelphia roll I ordered, there was genuinely barely any smoked salmon except for 1 piece and I took the photo after eating a piece and realizing, though what was there was absolutely delicious! I just wished there was a little bit more for an even amount between the other ingredients in the roll. The last thing I'll add, and I hate to admit it, is I was relieved that I ordered for pickup because when I walked in to grab my food I was immediately hit with a strange sort of sewage smell as soon as I entered the doors, I'm not sure if they were just having some plumbing issues or what, but a friend of mine mentioned when I told them I was ordering that they smelled the sewage smell last time they were in the restaurant too. But the servers behind the counter were very very sweet when I picked up my order, they always are, nothing was missing from my order and everything tasted so fresh and so yummy! I'll definitely keep coming back!“

“We have been here twice for different celebrations and are so happy with our experiences. Amazing sushi and wonderful service!!“

“There's no other way to explain this place besides perfect. They are absolutely wonderful especially since it's literally only the two owners who work here! The food is super super fresh and they have absolutely wonderful food presentation.“

“Good staff and good food they cook the food in your face“

“🍥muy agradable el ambiente“

“I’ve experienced consistently great customer service from Manager Marco at Hanaya Sushi Restaurant. Every visit, he goes above and beyond to make sure guests feel welcome and taken care of. Marco’s professionalism, attention to detail, and friendly attitude truly set the standard for excellent hospitality. It’s clear he takes pride in both the food and the guest experience. Thank you, Marco, for always making each visit to Hanaya an enjoyable one!“

“They happily offered a nori substitute for my salmon sushi (delicious). The Shuman and beef takami were perfect. The clear soup is a palate cleanser (no flavor). The only disappointment was the fly that had me arm flailing throughout the meal.“

“We absolutely love Foster’s. The food is always delicious and the staff are great. They are very attentive and always smiling. We eat here at least once a week.“

“Yes, affordable but classy. Great food“

“Fresh fish, and cheap prices“

“Some deep fried sushi really hit the spot after work. i got their hurricane roll and tornado roll. Between those two, i have to say my favorite is the tornado roll. Both were delicious though. i look forward to returning soon.“
