do not go here if you have kids. ***. . We just walked in to eat lunch at Yanagi sushi on Cooper and Warner, literally a one year since weâ??ve last eaten here, we travel all around the world. The owner refuse service to my family and I, she said she got a bad review from somebody who said our kids were loud over a year and a half ago…. So because our kids may or may not have caused another guest to leave a bad review she has decided to refuse us service. I have never in my life been refuse service, especially at a hole in the wall sushi place in the strip mall. This owner should be ashamed of herself for embarrassing my family and I. Luckily nobody is in the establishment today. Shocker. I think it’s completely unacceptable to punish us because she got a bad review one year ago because our kids may may or may not have been noisy. She should be absolutely ashamed of herself. The review she’s referring to says a toddler and her father. First of all I have a son (4)and I have never eaten at this restaurant with just me and a kid. It has always been my family of four. This owner is confused and banned us over here say and has embarrassed myself and my whole family. And the complaint review she refers to has lots of complaints about everything about this restaurant. Just an angry person, and my family is being punished. Furthermore upon research I was in El Paso Texas for a couple of weeks of business when this review was written she’s referring to. Ridiculous

Little Tokyo Sushi & Grill Menu with Prices 5815 Windward Pkwy #209, Alpharetta

I would not eat here. I have been a frequent customer of this sushi restaurant for the past 5 to 6 years. I used to come here for lunch 2-3 times a week, and sometimes for dinner. It was our “go to” sushi restaurant. The place changed ownership about a year or so ago, and it has slowly, but steadily deteriorated. The food and service under the old management was fantastic (especially the sushi), and I used to often refer friends and family to this restaurant. The sushi was always fresh, tasty, and creatively prepared. We never had a service issue. Today, three of us were seated with just one menu. We waited 15 minutes for our waitress to greet us (the owner had only 2 waitresses serving the entire dining room), so as such, I had to get up from the table and ask for 2 more menus before she arrived. Once we ordered, it took 45 minutes for us to get our salads, and we had to ask for the salads after asking twice before “where’s our food?” It wasn’t hard to see that our waitress completely forgot about our salads. Then she served our salads at the same time as our food. When our food arrived, the food that was served was not at all what we ordered. We told the waitress this when she served it. She said she’d go and check, but she never came back for the rest of the meal. As such, we were left to eat what was served to us or we wouldn’t have eaten at all. Second, the sushi was neither fresh, nor creative, nor prepared the same way it has always been with the identical menu ingredients, notwithstanding that the menu under the new ownership is identical to the menu under the old ownership. Bottom line, the sushi was bland to nasty (some of it soggy). We never received napkins nor chopsticks nor soy sauce bowls (I had to go fetch all of those myself off of empty tables), and we had to flag another server down to get our water glasses refilled. We waited for 15 minutes after eating to ask for our check, but the waitress never came back. We then walked up to the counter and waited another good 15 minutes for someone to show up so we could pay our bill. Finally the owner showed up. I shared with her our experience, and she couldn’t care less. She wrote it off to “yes, we were busy.” Then she surprisingly said to us, “if you don’t like it you don’t have to come back.” I guess the new owner completely misunderstands what it is to run a hospitality type business. It’s a real shame because I used to love coming to this restaurant, but I will not be back. If you know of any great sushi places in the area, please drop a post. Thanks.

Shu Sushi Ramen & Grill – Menu with Prices – 4929 W Chandler Blvd #3, Chandler

The owner of this restaurant used to own Sushi Ken in Ahwatukee after she bought it from the original owners. It was great back then. After selling Sushi Ken just over a year ago, she opened this place, Shu Sushi Grill and it’s clear she brought with her the love and passion for her food and her customers. Her husband is the sushi chef and their adorable little girls can regularly be found in the restaurant hanging with mom and dad. The sushi is incredibly fresh, the owner is part of a special group that has access to the best fish as soon as it’s available and it shows, so fresh and delicious. I love that she mixes some Korean options and specialties along with the Japanese cuisine options – it’s almost fusion-ish and a great mix up from solely traditional Japanese options. She maintains some five dollar sushi roll specials every day and they are great. The menu is robust and offers options for everyone. The Ramen soup is phenomenal, the atmosphere is comfortable and relaxed and clean. The service was excellent! I definitely recommend trying this restaurant, it could well become one of your regular favorites.

Taqueria el Torito – Menu with Prices – 2515 Freeman Mill Rd suite b, Greensboro

If this was asked of me before i stopped comming here they may have gotten 5 stars. I will no longer come in this place. Me and my family used to go here january to May we ate 3 times a day (everyother day) $35+ a visit. I thinks its the owners daughter or sister they look just alike.. I tell them everytime i go in there she doesnt listen shes too busy speaking spanish talking junk she isnt listening. I get the same thing all the time im in there all the time well i used to be and she still say she doesnt remeber and if she does she messes the order up anyways like my smoothie. Its not that hard to be quiet stop talking junk and make the food. But shes rude. I told her the last time i was in there my family will never be there again if shes still there. I havent went back since and this was almost 2 month ago. Ik our business was just somemore money but ive told everyone ik because that girl is just so rude. Hire people who understand both languages and if they speak spanish make sure there not talking about customers while the customer is inside the store. They’ve lost my business completly.

Zuki Japanese Hibachi Grill & Sushi Lounge – Menu with Prices – 222 Main St, Evansville

This is an average sushi restaurant in my opinion. The roll I ordered tasted fresh enough, but there was a heavy hand placed on the sauce such that the mayonnaise on the roll detracted from the meal itself. I also had a salad and egg roll. Again, the dressing on the salad wasnâ??t up to par with a number of carrot ginger dressIngs I have eaten in other Japanese restaurants. . . The three star rating would have been lower but for the outstanding excellent, prompt and friendly service I received. Donâ??t get me wrong, it is an okay restaurant and I am comparing it to other Japanese restaurants I have eaten at in much larger cities. . . I have also eaten hibachi here in the past, and I think that avenue of cuisine may make more people happy here than the sushi. . . I would not dissuade anyone from ordering sushi in that the food was wholesome just not as tasty as other places in other cities.

Twisted Burrito Menu with Prices 4107 Madeline Dr, Augusta

My wife and I went in there yesterday 6-28-19. We got one burrito to go big rig size. We sat at the bar for 10 minutes with wait staff walking by looking at us. Finally they took our order. While waiting the staff in the back got into a fight lots of yelling, cussing and at the end punching and slamming of doors. The staff said ” Its just a mother and son thing its happened before.” This is listed as a laid back family establishment. This was totally not the case yesterday. The manager was in the back as well.Anyway after literally 35 minutes my to go order of one burrito finally came out. It was absolutely disgusting. It actually was more white rice than anything. It wasn’t mixed with anything just white rice clumped on the burrito. Worst thing I have ever eaten in in my life. Anyway in total honesty we have eaten there before and the food has been great. I don’t know if they were just having an off day or what. If I hadn’t already paid for my meal I would have walked out without it. If the owner is local he may want to go in there and get a clue of what is going on in his place. I would have absolutely been ashamed of that place if it was mine yesterday. Manager should be fired for allowing such crappy service. Mother and son should be fired for for the cursing and yelling where the customer’s can here or for doing it at work period. The cook should be fired for not knowing how to build a burrito. When burrito is on the name of your business you probably should make sure the cook can make one. If I wanted food like that I would have went to McDonald’s. Oh on a side note the waitress said that is not the first time the mother and son have fought at work and have been fired for it before. Why would you rehire someone that acts like this. Anyway probably hands down the worst visit to any type food establishment ever. To the owner you should be ashamed. Horrible service and food on this visit.

Takohachi Japanese Restaurant Menu with Prices 3249 Columbia Pike, Arlington

Little about me: I’m Japanese American who speaks the language and cooks Japanese food at home. I rarely review Japanese restaurant since many places don’t serve traditional Japanese cuisine, and when restaurant is authentic, a lot of the time it is hard for me to take my two very young kids along to eat since they are considered “high end” and kids are not really welcomed. Owner of Takohachi also owns the Japanese style yakiniku shop Satsuma, in Bethesda. Satsuma has been a great addition to DC area’s Japanese community and everyone was excited when it opened up. So we were equally excited to have a new restaurant by the same owner opening up in NoVA, and our family has been frequenting here since the opening. Takohachi is not a yakiniku place (sorry if I lead you on). But they do have the famous dollar a piece sushi and a pretty good ramen, which my son loves. And menu has been well thought out and are reasonably priced. Especially the lunch time menu has a great price point! Many items on the menu are typical Japanese food that everybody eats in Japan. But what’s important is that they are done right. My family tends to do rolls and sushi plus couple of small plates here, but for the full Japanese meal experience, try foods like tonkatsu, chicken karaage, nasu dengaku, and also the specials they have. Oh and do try desserts too! The house made sweets are awesome. If you have kids, this restaurant is spacious enough for you to roll in with a baby stroller (as long as it’s not crowded) and that is something I LOVE. There is high chair and the bathroom is pretty clean. Parking is free too. To be fair, yes you can get a better sushi somewhere else. But you will be paying A LOT MORE. I take this quality and price any day. And yes, there are other ramen shops out there that may serve something better, but again the price! I think the restaurant has something for everyone, since they do offer a lot of “typical” Japanese food people expect, though I hope people will try something new rather than settle with chicken teriyaki or eel donburi. If you want to go to a Japanese food place that is authentic, without the huge price tag, Takohachi is the place to go. Order something new and experience “home style” cooking of Japan ?

Bloofin Sushi & Bar – Menu with Prices – 6615 N Grand Parkway West, # 325, Spring

This review is in regards to a DoorDash delivery we ordered. We ordered an app, a sushi combo, a hot dish and a couple of Sashimi ‘Small Plate’ items. I am usually hesitant to leave a bad review, having owned a restaurant myself for 13 years, HATING getting bad reviews, especially when it truly was our fault and we could have fixed it, but did not. First off, the sushi was missing from the order. Two minutes AFTER the delivery was dropped off, I got an email stating that the item was not sent because it was ‘out of stock’. Now, this is a sushi place, how could they be out of stock? Before I get to that: Eel Fois Gras special: $11.00. was a single tiny rice ball, a tiny slice of (cold) eel, and ZERO fois. Upside down & separated from the rice, so I saw there was nothing between the eel & rice. Madai Sashimi: $12.25: Sea Bream. It was 3 paper-thin slices of fish that, thank G_d, was in a separate container. It was the stinkiest, most un-fresh piece of cat food I have ever seen or smelled. Caterpillar roll $13.75: Advertised as Avocado & Shrimp topped roll. Yes, it was topped with avocado. And ONE SHRIMP. Half in front, the other half (with tail) in the back. Now- let’s get to why the Sushi Platter wasn’t delivered. I called the restaurant & was transferred to the ‘manager’. He told me I had chosen the most expensive fish of the choices given and that it was supposed to be ‘chef’s choice’. It was on their menu setup with DoorDash incorrectly. Rather than calling me to offer me a different selection, they chose to just delete the item. Rather than honoring what their menu offered, they chose to just cancel it, which screwed ME since it was MY dinner, the rest was for my wife. He WAS nice enough to tell me he would refund the cost of the non-delivered item, (how generous) but I have yet to see that refund. All in all, I understand that restaurants have off nights. This was a case of the management not caring a whit to honor what they put in writing on their menu. I refuse to believe I was the first person to ever order that from the restaurant and discover the menu was incorrect. Regardless, it was THEIR problem vis’ a vis’ DoorDash and they made it MY problem. And now I HAVE a problem. Stinky spoiled fish, overpriced/undersized menu items and a disregard for the tenets of good customer service. They could have made me a regular customer. Instead they have made me a one-star reviewer and will never see my business again. The Owners should be ashamed.

Tokai Sushi – Menu with Prices – 2279 Eagle Glen Pkwy, Corona

There isn’t very many sushi restaurants on this side of town. You have Ra and Tokai sushi. Tokai is far superior than Ra. Tokai has fresh ingredients and the customer service is much better. We walked in and they served us quickly, which is good for 3 hungry kids. My sons were shocked at the hostess giving them more candies on the way out the door. And the best thing, the price was on target for a family of 5. Tokai sushi is the place to go.

Akasaka Sushi – Menu with Prices – 6196 S Highland Dr, Salt Lake City

As with any of my other reviews, I am by no means a food “expert.” At the end of the day, like you, I just really enjoy eating out at tasty restaurants. That being said, this review is coming from a perspective of someone who frequently dines in at this location. Every time I come to this restaurant I always go for their All-You-Can-Eat option which is around 25 bucks. This includes appetizers (gyoza, miso soup, tempura), main courses (rice bowls and the like), and most importantly – their specialty rolls. The reason why I enjoy coming here so much are for 2 reasons. 1) The food: The sushi here is pretty darn good. Now the sushi I’m referring to, I’m aware isn’t “authentic” sushi, but the roll variety. I’ll break down the consistencies that win points with me. – The rice is never mushy nor is it too dry. Perfect for the rolls. – The rolls always hold their form. I never have a difficult time picking up individual pieces. – The fish itself is good. There’s no distinct bad odor, and the freshness level is above average for most sushi places. – The chef makes use of a wide variety of ingredients which is probably why the special sushi roll menu is so vast. – Fried rolls always have a good layer of crisp and although there’s a bit more rice than I would like, they’re still delectable. Also, the appetizers and main courses are pretty good as well. If I had to pick, I would probably order the gyoza and mixed tempura for appetizers and just stick to specialty rolls for the main event. 2) The atmosphere/workers: I’m 100% sure that Akasaka sushi is a Ma and Pa locally owned sushi restaurant and it truly feels that way. I’ve been here enough that the folks at the restaurant recognize me and I’m always greeted with not only a smile, but an overall exuberant energy that seems to reliably elevate my mood. The main guy who makes the sushi rolls is charismatic and charming and I’m pretty sure if you asked, would be willing to customize orders just for you. My only “complaint” would be that the serving staff can be a bit short but I think it’s because they really only have family run the establishment. Service can be a tiny bit slow when it’s busy because of this, but if you’ve got the time, they’ve got the kindness to spare so try to overlook it. Overall, I personally really enjoy akasaka sushi. Maybe I’m biased and I’ve got a bit of a weakness for sweet folks. However, don’t let that fool you. The food is reliably delicious. If you’ve got to get your sushi roll fix, make sure you stop in here.

Jimmyz Original Hibachi House – Menu with Prices – 6108 N Kings Hwy, Myrtle Beach

As a Fellow employee here, I will tell you guys now DO NOT ORDER from this business.! This place isn’t not up to DHEC standards by a LONG Shot, they leave chicken on a counter at night to thaw. They don’t even use gloves to prepare your food. The Yum Yum sauce comes out of a TRASH CAN.!! The Mangers are rude they will yell at you while you are infront of customers. They will tell the customer they are wrong and refuse to make the right food. The Manger Freddie Threw a plate of Sushi at me on 5/25/19, all because the believes that the customer IS NOT always right. And he felt I should go let her know and give her back the food he place his bare hands on. So I wore Sushi and White sauce for the rest of shift. Due to a mangers immaturity. You are constantly reminded everyday how stupid you are because you don’t know everything like the 4 people who been there more than a year. You got a Owner who can’t even take the time out to call the employees when something serious is going on in the store. You got a owner who will fire a damn good worker, all because the MANgER treats the employees like shit and talk to us like we are dogs.. and think we are post to put up with it.! All around Disgusted with the business and the management. Lesson learned

Three Monkeys – Menu with Prices – 9556 Hamilton Ave, Huntington Beach

So bummed. My husband and I used to come here once a week and after I got pregnant didn’t come but it was the first place I wanted to go after the baby was born. We really wanted to sit at the bar so we went early and there was no one there. We had our baby in the carrier and asked to sit at the bar and said we want to sit in the corner so the car seat doesn’t intrude. We were told we couldn’t and had to sit at a table. I thought as usual regulars that was lame. Fast forward to our parents night out and there was a 3 year old with his parents at the sushi bar that was way more interrupting and obnoxious than our infant could’ve been. Strike 2. By the way, this is the female owner who said no to us sitting at the bar and she sat the said family at the bar later. Fast forward. We were there as a family and ordered about $100 worth of food and drinks. Then wanted to order a kids beef bowl to go for my oldest daughter who couldn’t make it to dinner. We were told they don’t do kids to go food. But we are sitting here eating and have ordered over $100 worth of food and drinks. All we want is to order more and take it to go. She was so rude I couldn’t get over it. As a family who eats at this establishment at least once a month and recommends it to friends I was so let down by the customer service here. Now I have to deal with my tired kid who all she wanted was a darn beef bowl. Needless to say I won’t be back here any time soon if ever. So much for treating your regulars good.

Marufuku Ramen – Menu with Prices – 9292 Warren Pkwy Suite 370, Frisco

Tasty and inexpensive ramen for the family. Before I begin, I should note that my kids eat sushi, spicy, and a variety of foods. If the kids with you only eat certain foods, this might not be the best place especially when they find out there’s seaweed on their food. My husband and I both ordered the Chicken Paikan ($11 each) and for the littles one order of the small (kids) rice and chicken ($5), and one side of edamame ($4) (because my kids will definitely eat the last two). I asked for an extra small bowl and split the rice and chicken between my boys. They immediately asked us to share our noodles. (Side note: you can get extra noodles added during dinner for $2-we didn’t need to, but we might now that our secret is out with the kids.) The noodles are perfect and the broth is even better. It is almost creamy, without having cream–maybe it’s miso? I have to be honest, I didn’t ask. The chicken, bean sprouts, seaweed all added flavor to the broth. They do include a soft boiled egg, which I just leave in the bowl because I like my eggs cooked well. I must be the only one because my 3-year-old requested a bite and I gave him half, then my 6-year old requested the other half of the egg. And just like that, my bowl was empty. $31 plus tax and tip for dinner for the four of us–yes please! And I just realized I didn’t mention service because I loved the food so much. The staff was friendly, quiet, and polite. I felt like a guest at someone’s home!
