“my family and I really enjoy Mr. Shabu. We have mainly been for the sushi, and have really liked it. The Playboy Roll, which is sort of my go to roll, I'm torn if they are number 1 or 2 when it comes to the place I like it the most. but we have enjoyed many other rolls their. but we also appreciate their wall of ramen which is great for my daughter who is trying to like more sushi, but isn't all the way there yet. it make it easy for her to still get a full dinner, but also try some sushi as well. Any ways, if your looking for some good sushi, give Mr. Shabu a try.“

“First time here and will absolutely be coming back! We went on a Thursday night and it was pretty packed. We ended up waiting around 35-40 minutes. They don’t have traditional handheld menus, they have QR codes at the table you’re seated at. The menu has lots of options to pick from and we loved everything we tried. We sat in front of the kitchen and were able to watch the kitchen staff hand make everything. The food tasted fresh so flavorful!“

“We wanted sushi and heard this was the best place. It's a fun location with a cool vibe. We had three rolls, Black Magic Woman, Strawberry Fields and Ramon. I liked them best in that order. Ramon I would not order again, it was just kind of bland, but the other two rolls were great!“

“Food at this location has been great every time I go here. I gave 4 stars on service because the cashier didn't give me my receipt and stared at me and my baby as soon as I walked in the building. The gentleman making the food was kind and happy and efficient and my food was cooked properly. Although I still had vegetables on my plate even though I told the cashier I didn't want any vegetables. Other than that I would recommend and try again!“

“I had never been to ramen legend before and it didn’t disappoint. My cousin got a spicy curry ramen. I usually get a pork broth ramen but decided to try something new. I got a chicken broth ramen and it had fried chicken in it. The fried chicken was great and crispy. My 1 year old daughter also loved it! I would definitely order it again!“

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

“My inaugural dining experience at the sushi bar was exceptional. The sushi, meticulously prepared by the chef, was outstanding, and the harmonious blend of flavors created a truly perfect dish. I would not be surprised if he held the title of Master Sushi Chef at the establishment. I entrusted him with the selection of my sushi, and the resulting experience was extraordinary. In my opinion It rivaled the quality of some of Japan's most esteemed sushi restaurants. The atmosphere was serene, and the ambiance was ideal. My beverages were consistently refilled, never falling below half-full, which was greatly appreciated. Would I personally return? No, unless the specific sushi chef, whose name I believe was Robel, was on duty. His expertise is that remarkable. Would I recommend this restaurant? Absolutely, whether for a casual gathering with friends or a romantic date. It is a very pleasant venue. Thank you.“

“I love almost everything here, and always go out of my way if I'm near one or see th we food truck! the one thing I did just have that was downright bizzar, and borderline gross was the Raspberry chicken. I'm curious if there is anyone thats gotten it more than once. I just sort of speed ate the chicken so I didn't waste the money, but couldn't handle the rice with that actual salad dressing, super sweet and tart sauce. then it also has blue cheese on it which is very strange, lol.“

“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“

“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.“
