Strip mall food at fine dining prices.

I stopped in for a nice sushi meal, but was shocked by the prices. The sushi entrees were $25-30 average for one person. I opted out of getting sushi and settled for Japanese Pan Noodles with shrimp, which was still over $15 as pictured. There were no extras - no salad or miso soup, and not even a fortune cookie with the check. One paper napkin and a fork was provided, but no chop sticks. To be fair, I didn’t ask for any… they probably cost more.

Atmosphere was lacking, like I was eating at Subway (which was just a couple doors down). Waitstaff was plainly clothed, but were polite. No extra trips were made to refill my beverage, etc… just to leave the check.

This is not the only sushi place in town - I suggest looking elsewhere.

I visited this restaurant around 2–3 PM, and every time I’ve been there, I was the only customer in the place. The servers were very attentive and provided great service. The food itself isn’t particularly special or unique compared to other places, but the quality is good and worth the price. Personally, I really like their sushi and Japanese dishes—they’re much better than the Chinese and Thai menu items. Overall, the atmosphere is very clean, which I appreciate.

If I had to point out a downside, it would be the security cameras—they emit a flashing light the entire time, which makes it uncomfortable to sit for too long. Overall, I’d rate this place a solid 7 out of 10.

I ordered the Bangkok Connection that comes with steak, chicken and shrimp. In the past it has been very good…today not so! Nothing on the plate was fresh…you could tell it had been prepared in a large quantity and left setting. Veggies were dark from setting in the sauce, steak was cold and tough, no chicken what so ever and the shrimp were literally so tough you couldn’t eat it. So disappointing

DO NOT COME HERE!
I spent $40 for General Tso’s chicken, Lo mein with no protein and crab wontons. The General Tso’s chicken was shaped like big balls and was super dry. The Lo mein was made with spaghetti noodles and the crab wontons were not fried all the way, were very “doughy” and filled with only cream cheese. I called back to tell them I wanted a refund and would return the food and they told me I was a bad customer. Finally after going back and forth on the phone with them for 30 minutes, they agreed to give me a refund if I sent them pictures of the food to show I didn’t eat it! So I did, and then they told me they’d only give me 50% off or a restaurant credit. I ended up driving all the way back to the restaurant anyway with the food and ended up getting a full refund. They were very disrespectful and the food is horrible. 0/10 recommend.

Drunken noodle w/tofu. Pork tonkatsu ramen. Dim sum platter. Volcano roll. 1st time visiter. Will come back when in the area. Delicious & super friendly. Service was excellent.

Very nice place. Greeted promptly with a smile, sat and server immediately came. I ordered beef with garlic sauce and it was well made. Sliced beef with carrots, snap peas, onions, water chestnuts, celery with a garlic brown sauce. Quite yummy. Fried rice was done well and moist. Service was spot on. I'll be back!!

I’ll never, ever understand why this place gets such great reviews. I’ve been multiple times, and the service has never been good, and the food is mediocre at the very best. It’s just boring, and the atmosphere is completely lacking. Most likely, I’m spoiled by having lived too many other places. Mexican restaurants here are pretty much awful, too.

Took my nephew out for his birthday to have lunch and when we get the food was too spicy I asked if we can have the food not spicy .the Waitress with bad attitude said you know it’s spicy. I said I didn’t see that.she brought the menu and she told me that chili pepper right next to it. I realize it was my mistake. asked her to make another one and make this one to go. my nephew cannot eat spicy food y some kind of and she said you have to pay for it. I said I understand just make it to go and make me a new one with no chili peppers flacks spices on it. She went back and she called the manager manager came to the table and I asked him again to give me one with no chili peppers on it. He repeated the same thing the waitress said. . But this time he said he will make a new one without the chili sauce. he took the food back and less than 2 minutes the waitress brought the food back. the food was very cold and you can guess it they washed the food and they put it back in the dish , and slabbed some kind of sauce on itI have a picture of the chili that was still on the food. I told my nephew not to eat from it .I paid $76 including tips and we left and went somewhere else to have lunch. I don’t like dishonesty specially when it comes to food. God only knows what they do in the kitchen that the customers don’t know or see .
