    Be forewarned... If paying with a CC, you will be hit with a 3% service fee, take-out or otherwise. And if you are holding a $10 coupon for a $100 order, management will not honor it upon request if you are at $96 and change, plus tip. And the sushi rice is hard and subpar.

    Not the best sushi and a bit pricey for the quality. However their hot entrees were a better pick esp the crispy squid and general tso chicken. The service was quick and generally nice and the restaurant was clean and spacious.

    Rock shrimp. It was good, but heavy. We wouldn't get it again.

    My boyfriend ordered Thai fried squid and rock shrimp as an appetizer. The squid was very good and we would get it again. The rock shrimp was good but heavy (very thick batter on the shrimp). We wouldn't get this again. For the main dish, my boyfriend got soft shell tempura crab roll. It was very good and he said he would get it again. He also got a shrimp tempura roll. If you are trying to decide which one of these to order, he said the soft shell tempura crab roll was best. My boyfriend said he had a slight stomachache, but I have a feeling this is due to the fact he ordered all fried food lol. I ordered a salmon avocado roll and a spicy salmon roll. Both were good. I'd get the salmon avocado roll again. The salmon in the spicy salmon roll was a little dry, but it was very good anyway so who cares. Overall a pleasant experience and we would go again.

    Our favorite Saturday afternoon lunch place. $14 for 3 sushi lunch. We usually order the standard : shrimp tempura, eek avocado, shrimp avocado rolls. Service is prompt. They are nice and respectful and it's always extremely clean. They have also been accommodating with our sons sesame allergy -making his rolls special for him Without sesame and we've never had an issue.

    Shrimp tempura roll was mediocre at best. Spicy tuna roll was terrible- smelled and tasted like it wasn't fresh.

    My review is based on takeout. I was In the mood for…read moreChinese food and I wanted to give Ye's Asian Bistro a try. This place is more of Asian fusion style restaurant with a unique variety of cuisines. As I waited for my order I could see that they have a nice dining room with linen tablecloths for dining in. You can also sit outside if the weather is nice. This is a BYOB restaurant. The staff was very nice. It was easy to place my order and I didn't have to wait long for it to be ready. They have a good selection of Chinese, Vietnamese,Thai, and Malaysian dishes, along with some unique offerings like Jellyfish Salad, Sweet n Sour Jellyfish, Pickle with Pork Intestines, Sautéed Pork Liver with Vegetables,Crystal Dumplings, Fish Maw Soup with Crabmeat and a whole lot more of interesting and unique dishes. They offer a separate Chinese menu for authentic dishes, and a menu all in Chinese for those who can read it. Ye's Asian Bidtro also has a nice variety of Soups, Salads along with Vegetarian options. They offer Beef, Chicken, Pork, Lamb, Seafood, Chef Specials, Noodles and Rice Dishes, Casseroles, and Pho. They have Lunch Specials too. I ordered for an Appetizer Steamed Leaf Shape Pork Dumplings. You get 6 in an order, they were very good, I could've stop eating them. For my dinner I placed an order for their Combination General Tso's Chicken with Fried Rice. It was really delicious. The chicken was cooked perfectly and it was tender. The sauce had good flavor and the Stir Fried Broccoli was a nice accompaniment. My bf ordered their Combination Pork Lo Mein with Fried Rice. He really enjoyed his meal. I shared my dumplings with him, and gave him a taste of my General Tso's Chicken. He too thought the food here was very good. There is a large free parking lot in the back. There are a few handicapped parking spaces. I will definitely be returning.

This also includes the various types within those countries .... We heard great things about the food and was recommended by someone that knows good Chinese food. As mentioned, the food fell flat... Lacking distinct flavor/execution was lacking. Service was fine and inside was what you would expect for an independent Chinese/Asian restaurant.

Awesome time all around, and I would highly recommend coming here for great sushi.

    The service and atmosphere was great, super fun looking place, but there's a big problem. I go to…read morerestaurants for the food, and Ami's sushi was lacking severely. By no exaggeration it's the worst sushi I've had the experience of eating. My group ordered a ramen, a sushi platter, and a sashimi platter. To start with a positive, the tonkotsu ramen was tasty and it had a nice balance of flavors. Now, I'm not sure if maybe it was just a bad day but the texture of the tuna was like mushy, grainy gel. The salmon didn't fare much better as it had an uncomfortably soft and mushy mouth feel. In addition, the sushi rice was on the warm side. The most disappointing though was the flavor, totally absent and none of the sushi had the slight savory/umami taste that I've come to expect in good fish. (Sushi making side note: preparing the fish usually involves a brine that enhances the taste and texture of the meat. My guess is that maybe this step was skipped, but I honestly have no clue what they did to that fish) When my group left, we all had to debrief about how bizarre the sushi was. I don't want to be mean spirited in any way, our server was very attentive and the manager/owner also checked in with us while we dined. I just cannot in good faith recommend this place to anyone from my own experience. Atmosphere & Staff: 4.5/5 Ramen: 3.5/5 Sushi: 1/5 Sashimi: 0/5

I've eaten at Ottoyee for months now, and each experience has been incredibly delicious. However, the only thing is that the wait time can run very long. Not for the food to arrive, but for placing the order. We tried to get the attention of the waiter on staff multiple times, but was either ignored or they were behind the screen attending to something else. The wait time was around 15-20 minutes, but this is likely attributed to the small staff. Otherwise though, they were incredibly kind and knowledgeable of the menu and we still had a delicious experience as usual.

    I so wanted to love this place, and was so excited to try it when reading the menu. Otoro? Ramen?…read moreGyudon? It all sounded like the perfect restaurant, but I'm really hesitant to return. Upon entertaining on a weekend evening, there were a few tables with patrons but not too busy. The restaurant did seem a bit understaffed with only one person taking orders / bringing food out, making it difficult to flag down this one person to successfully take our order and ask for anything additional throughout the night. Gyudon: for the price, we were really surprised at how small of a portion this was. It was not only in a small bowl, but the meat was layered on top perfectly deceiving you to think that there was more than there actually was. The majority of this dish was rice, and with limited sauce at that. As displayed on the menu images it was to be served with a runny egg, but unfortunately we got a fully cooked one (disappointing, as we were looking for something to mix with the rice!) Sushi: We got a 3 rolls and they were just alright. They were pretty small in size, with less rice than I'm used to (which is something I do like - I would rather more fish than rice!) With us getting spicy salmon, spicy tuna, and spicy scallop - they all kind of tasted the same, so I wish the fish wasn't as heavily masked with spicy mayo. Ramen: I got the black garlic ramen, and it wasn't the best, but wasn't the worst. I've purchased fresh ramen packages in the supermarket before and it tasted just like that, so it made me disappointed knowing I could achieve the same at home. The soup itself was extremely rich and fatty, and the charsiu had no flavor whatsoever leaving much to be desired. The main reason I'm rating this so low is upon having my last bites of sushi, I could tell something was off. I don't recall which specifically I had but I made a statement that it was extremely fishy and off putting. Fast forward later that night, I was hunched over the toilet vomiting with stomach pain - and I can deduct that the sushi was the culprit. I might consider trying Ottoyee again due to the great deals they have listed on food delivery apps, but the sushi quality (quite literally) put a bad taste in my mouth.
