“First time and I’ll be back!“

“great service and very tasty! also, great price“

“Loved the calm and simplistic atmosphere, and the food was incredibly satisfying! Definitely surpassed my expectations. The staff was sweet, prompt, and helpful, and the owner (Lily) was personable and caring. We will definitely be returning for many more date nights to come! We each ordered the tonkatsu ramen and we shared the Texas roll. We have now visited twice in one week to try more sushi, and it was great!“

“Everything was absolutely perfect. We tried a variety of rolls and dishes. The presentation, flavors and even textures, perfection. New favorite sushi restaurant.“

“At Sukihana in Daybreak, oh what a delight,
The food was a symphony, pure culinary might.
Each bite burst with flavor, a dance on the tongue,
From sushi to ramen, every dish was well-sung.

The flavors were bold, yet so perfectly balanced,
In every fresh morsel, my taste buds were entranced.
The service was warm, like a hug on a plate,
Sukihana’s a gem—truly five stars, first-rate!“

“Sakura is awesome.
First the Food. Everything is freshly made, hot, and very good. I've had the chicken, steak, and salmon teriyaki, all of which are fantastic. The plates are massive, and I often have lots of leftovers. The smaller bowls are also a full meal, and often what I order. The drinks are made fresh as well, and I am fond of the Thai Tea and Sakura Coffee. The Boba is fresh made and hot, which makes for a really fun and unique experience, with the ice cold beverage and warm Boba. Its a treat!
Their sushi is also fairly good.

The staff is great. The owners are extremely nice, and very helpful.

The restaurant is small, but well taken care of. Its clean, bright, and not too loud.

Give Sakura a try. You will love it!“

“The food is wonderful and the atmosphere is fast paced and kid friendly! We love it 😍“

“Pepper Lunch was on my list of restaurants to try during a trip to Tokyo this past April, but I unfortunately wasn’t able to. Imagine my surprise when I found out that one had opened right here in Riverton!

The food is absolutely fantastic, and appears very fresh. It’s served sizzling hot right on your own personal heated platter, guaranteeing your meal won’t go cold. I ordered a Jumbo Beef with a fountain drink, and paid around $22. For the quality, taste, and freshness of the food, I thought this was an exceptional value.

Don’t forget to ask for a loyalty punch card! For every 8 meals purchased (technically 7, since one spot is already pre-filled) you’ll get a free meal.

Pepper Lunch absolutely lived up to the hype from when I was researching my original Japan trip, and I’ll be frequently coming back. Please open up some more Utah locations!“

“Consistently excellent food, friendly service and great atmosphere, all at amazingly affordable prices. My daughter and I love coming here!“

“I recently went to this restaurant, and I loved it! You can order different types of sushi. You should try the poke it’s amazing! Also, make sure to get the sake with strawberries; it’s absolutely delicious. Overall, I give this restaurant a 10/10!“

“Fun family experience and yummy food. The chef was very talented, lots of the normal hibachi experience: throwing eggs, fire, throwing shrimp in each persons mouth, etc. the food was delicious and each thing was the perfect temperature. They give everyone 2 sauces plus soy sauce on the table so you can season more as needed. We brought up an allergy to peas and she assured us they didn’t use it in the fried rice.“

“My wife is a foodie and wanted to show me this place. Upon entering I had my hesitations… but after trying the Curry Ramen I knew that I had just found my new favorite ramen place. I recommend this place to anyone who has a love for ramen! My son's also loved the pictures on the wall and especially the katana that was displayed on the Front counter!“

“SOOO YUMMYYYY!!!! I come here any time I visit Lehi because it is just so spectacular. The steak is melt in your mouth heavenly. The flavors just explode in your mouth and the hibachi chefs are so fun to interact with. I always do the hibachi and order steak and shrimp with fried rice.“

“solid albacore and yellowtail on the bar and I had 7 creme brulees. 7 of 5 would recommend.“

“Went there for the first time tonight with my husband! We will defiantly be back. Got fried calamari with 2 burritos one being the sumo California which is fried. Totally worth it! Plus it’s literally right down the street from my apartment. This will be a new favorite place for us“

“I really enjoyed my visit to this Japanese restaurant. The atmosphere was calm and welcoming, and the staff were polite and attentive. Everything was fresh, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to come back again. Highly recommend !“

“keyaki sushi is my favorite! i used to go to garage grill for my sushi nachos. then my best friend sent me a recommendation. ,,,, holy moly! I do wish they'd have an option on door dash to hold jalapenos and add other ingredients, like king crab and fish eggs. people would pay extra. I would! I highly recommend this place but be careful, if you have them, you will get addicted! best ever!“

“Great sushi place located in the South Jordan river bottoms.
Fresh made sushi rolls and a great selection of seafood and other dishes.
A tad on the fancy side .. and popular for local business people at lunch.
Servers are friendly. Service is above average.
Food is made fresh and served hot .. with fancy presentation.
Somewhat pricey .. definitely not your typical lunch spot.“

“Very enjoyable! if you're looking for a quiet lunch or dinner spot, this is very pleasant. Good food! I enjoy having both Korean and Japanese options!“

“Wonderful authentic food! Tempura is awesome. Soup was good and very hot.“

“Service was fantastic. The food was beautifuly presented. The selection of rolls is great. The flavor of the rolls I ordered; I can only describe as a beautiful sensation of flavors and textures. I'm talking about, take my breath away type of experience. Best sushi I've had in my lifetime. Highly recommend eating here!“

“Oh my gosh this place is phenomenal! Not only is the Sushi rolled fresh for every order, the customer service is amazing! The lady who took our order was very nice, friendly and quick on her feet. Our order was delivered right to our table. And it was presenters to us in the way you'd expect it to be delivered to royalty. I highly recommend giving them a try. You won't regret it.“

“Excellent food! Tried their food truck at the Sandy food truck night and was thrilled when I found out they had a restaurant as well! We ordered less than a week later and still so yummmmy! Get the Enso with the Godzilla roll.“

“Simply delicious 🤤“

“I have been coming here since they've opened and love their food. However, I am very disheartened lately how their cook Olden (I believe is his name) treats the other staff. He tends to get overwhelmed by tickets or special requests. When I've experienced this happening he seems as though he gets stressed out. Then he lashes out on the other staff around him, especially the owner's mother who works the register. I've experienced this on multiple occasions and it's frustrating to see. I love this place but it's beginning to make me not want to come here due to how he treats others. I have kept my mouth closed for the experience of other customers in the building. However, your staff don't deserve this type of treatment and I will be standing up for them the next time this happens in front of me. I've kept my mouth shut long enough.“

“Our first time at Tsunami was great! Our servers were Danni and Jamie, and they were both awesome! Danni made a very yummy espresso martini and was very kind! Jamie did an awesome job too and made us laugh a lot! They both definitely elevated our first experience here :) I hope they will see this review because they deserve a shoutout!!“

“Came here for a date night and the food was delicious! Thanks to Oscar, and the other great waitstaff. Our favorite was the salmon belly.“

“The all you can eat I had was so delicious with good price!“

“Best Thai Food in Utah, Hands Down!“

“My favorite sushi restaurant in Utah. They also excel in Raman and teriyaki dishes.“

“So so yummy , I don't think people know that you can order fresh made to order food here cause it's in Macy's supermarket but we got the twin peaks roll and it's so good and fresh and I'm so picky with sushi since growing up in California and finding a place with good sushi is hard in Utah we will definitely come back for the fresh made to order food .“

“This is our favorite go to for Japanese food. Always delicious, great sushi and ramen. Close to the theater makes it great for date night. Delicious mochi ice cream!!!

We also DoorDash this place often. We are obsessed.“

“The food is fresh and delicious and hot. Every bit of it is cooked to perfection. Idk how they do it but the vegetables (despite not being seasoned or roasted) are so flavorful and fresh and bright. The sauces and spices are wonderful and the meat is always cooked perfectly no matter which kind I get, as well as the rice. The service is friendly and again, the food is wonderful. I've come in a bit hangry once and they were good to me anyway. They've got it all figured out.“

“Every time we come here we are impressed. The food is good and it’s a cheap eat!“

“The the sushi chef was excellent, and so was the sushi and sake… The waitress was a bit inattentive, but nice. I’d go there again.“

“Food was delicious and fresh. The steak was tasty, but I wish it more tender to chew easily.

Everything was delicious. The waiter was mindful, patient and on top of things, inspite of how busy it became right when they opened.“

“Our whole family loves fortune cookie. They have the best service, best food and I am happy to have better access again from Herriman into Riverton. They have quick delivery service too and always take great care of us there and when they deliver.
Thank you guys!!!“
