    Look at this what is this in the trash it goes very disappointed
    Tia T.

    Horrible Horrible horrible upset we wasted our time and money didn't give us what we ordered then when I called the lady was very nasty they can never ever get our business not ever. Not even worth a one star.

    Me and the family were looking for a "non-traditional" Christmas Eve Dinner. My wife has eaten lunch there before and was impressed. The service was fantastic. I personally prefer to patronize a family owned place versus the standard franchise fare that caters quantity. This place has been open for just about four months and is owned by a couple trying to achieve their "American Dream." You'll need to bypass your insticts to avoid a place that is next to a check cashing joint and liquor store. Luckilly, their entrance is on the side of the building away from the "tennants" Trust a Yelp review and give them a shot. The experience is modeled after the Benihanna experience. The food was very good quality. The soup is homemade. The waitress explained exactly how they make it fresh. Starting with making their own chicken stock. The salads were fresh and appealing. There were six in our party including one little one age 7. Each of us had the shrimp appetizer and some steak or chicken combination. The Chef paid close attention to our little one and put on a good show for him. The meal was very delicious. While the prices are comparable to any other Hibachi style restaurant, I did feel they were about $3 or $4 higher than anything else in the area. But, in return, the portions were generous. As a life long westsider, I'll tell you that the westside is hungry for some upscale family dining. Something different than the typical chain restaurant. Give these guys a shot. I think they deserve a look.

    Chicken and shrimp with a margarita!

    Great food. Great service. It doesn't look great from the outside, but this is one of the best restaurants on the west-side. A great hibachi experience without driving all over town. This is a family-owned business and they take great pride in their food and service. It shows.

    Food is good but service is spotty. There are just a couple people that work there and they get overwhelmed easily.

    Their Yum Yum sauce and Brown Ginger sauce was the best we've had at any hibachi spot.

The decorations brought festivity to what has been a depressing and aggravating 400 days! Kumo Asian Fusion is a very clean place to eat, mingle, or just have a drink! My next group celebration will definitely be here, where there's plenty of seating and a fully stocked bar that you could even bring a child to for a Shirley Temple on the rocks! After eating, I could hardly get up. I just kept stuffing "One more bite," before placing enough leftovers for another meal, in the to-go container, which my roommate confiscated from me as soon as I walked through the door .

The flavors were okay and satisfying enough for a casual hibachi craving. The ginger salad threw me off a bit--not so much the taste, but the presentation. The lettuce pieces were pretty large, and I definitely would've preferred it more chopped for easier bites. I also tried the sweet tea, which honestly didn't taste much like sweet tea at all. It leaned more toward a green tea flavor, but it wasn't terrible once I added some lemon. On the upside, the crab rangoons were solid--crispy, warm, and enjoyable. Overall, Kumo Asian delivers a decent meal with a few quirks. Not amazing, not terrible--just okay. I wouldn't rush back, but if I was in the area and wanted something quick and reliable, I'd consider it again.

    Rating is primarily for service. Our server kept our drinks filled and was very kind…read more The pop is fountain pop, not cans or bottles. And refills are plentiful. Which is good to see. Crab rangoon was good. The sauce wasn't just the normal sweet chili sauce. Definitely sweet but with more spices. The ginger dressing on the salad was very good. Clear soup was flavorless. Still not sure why it is so common at restaurants. Tuna sushi was good. It had a wasabi type topping that was very good. Salmon was ok. Texture wasn't the typical tender type. Surf and turf roll was mediocre. The beef on top needed flavoring. Maybe just a little salt when cooking it. The sauces in top (I believe it was labeled as ranch and balsamic) didn't add enough flavor to make sense. The magic roll was also ok. Nothing special. The spicy tuna inside was not spicy at all. The inside is nice and everything is clean. Overall, it is fine. Nothing special.

We moved away from OH about 20 years ago now, but were recently in town for the holidays to visit family. We decided to give Wasabi a try. Turned out to be a great choice. To me, there is a lot of overlap between Chinese and Japanese food, and I like them both. My wife had the miso soup, the crunchy roll, and we split a bacon avocado roll. Then I had the chicken fried rice. Both rolls were very good, but the chicken fried rice was outstanding. Maybe the Best fried rice I have ever had. We will definitely be back, and recommended it to everyone we saw that week.
