They dont have it anywhere on their online menus but a note in the physical store says they put fish sauce in all the things they call vegetarian. So sad, i've ordered so many times :/

Disappointing Japanese Dining Experience

I visited this Japanese restaurant recently and was quite let down. The food was a huge disappointment.

The sushi was overly large and didn't taste right. It seemed like they didn't understand the essence of Japanese cuisine. The sauces and ingredients just weren't accurate.
Worst ramen ever.

Overall, the dishes failed to impress. Only the fountain drink was okay. I won't be coming back.

I'm sad to say that I will not be back here. I came in today and ordered the pop rock sushi burrito and tried to order the kids chicken bowl to go and I couldn't order the kids meal because it's dine in only. So I ordered her some chicken. Which she brought it out in a dish so I grabbed to go's to put my food in and also to get to go cups in which she let me know they charge for. So then I'm like okay. And I'm grabbing to go containers. One for my burrito and one for my daughters chicken and one for my friends and at this point I felt just harassed. She said that they have to charge for my to go containers because I grabbed too many. That I need to use the paper ones. So yeah. I will not be back.

Used to love this place...unfortunately had a weird and annoying experience here, went in purchased my food and left a tip, waited about 20 mins at first and got food. Went to my car and started eating what I thought was a cali sushi burrito..realized I got someone else's order and went back in quickly with the other two burritos I did not order! She said we accidentally gave urs to the other guy and you got his..mind you now I'm running late for work, she offers me the extra food as a sorry ig. Tells me 5 mins and she'll have mine remade, after another 15 min wait I goto the counter to collect my original order and she takes the extra 2 burritos from me and says "actually we are going to keep those just in case" now I'm absolutely baffled she just took the food back after giving it tome...weird!!!Never coming back! It was in my car, in my hands..now she is going to serve it to someone else! 🤮 yea sorry that's disgusting..

Love the theme of the anime and how they decorated the location. Amazing ramen’s and other dishes with flavors. I recommend for cute hangout place with family or friends.

The only issues for me is keeping the place warmer or heaters 🥶 other then that everything’s great

What a disappointment. We’ve been here plenty of times so we know how good the food was. I didn’t eat the whole day expecting to just indulge in some excellent ramen. Ramen broth was bland, the bamboo shoots and veggies were ice cold, and there was an overwhelmingly nutty flavor like peanut butter in the broth. The takoyakis were lacking the sauce. It came with some type of transparent looking sauce which wasn’t appetizing at all. Decent taste on the takoyaki though. Not sure if they had a management changed but definitely our last time here. Just sad.

I would check your order before leaving, I paid $16 and only got broth & noodles rather than an actual bowl of ramen

This has been one of our favorite places for lunch ... until today. My husband and I always end up ordering the same food, salmon poke for me and chicken poke for him. We just love the food. Today, we were so disappointed. I’m not sure if they changed management, are cost-cutting, or they have a new cook. The salmon pieces were so small and barely there, the rice had a different texture, the chicken was barely there too, and the crab salad was gone! What’s going on?

Amazing poke bowls with all the toppings! Ingredients tasted very fresh and proportional. Great service. Only downside is the dining area was drafty and avocado was a little hard.

Ordered takeout. Food came nicely packaged in boxes and a reusable bag. We had 5 sushi burritos. Portion is huge and DELICIOUS! Fresh ingredients and sauces that came with were good. We had the OMG, PLU, Firecracker, Gangham style, and Zen. I honestly can't choose which one was the best. We will definitely be back frequently!

Had the Zen burrito today and while it was good for the first half, my first bite into the second felt too chewy. Turns out it was part of the absorbent pad thing that got stuck to a piece of salmon or tuna.
