    Was told wait was 25 mins, ended up being almost an hour. We got buzzed in only to find out that we were buzzed in too early so we just stood up front awkwardly for about another 15 mins before actually being seated. Front area is very congested due to space. It was Friday so I figured it would be busy which is why I remained patient although a bit annoyed. We ordered an appetizer sampler which came with three selections and we chose crab rangoon, calamari, and gyoza but I was disappointed with the amount which was two samples of each item. We ordered some sushi and and then two other entrees. For the price range of the entree dishes I thought it was a bit steep. Only good thing of the night for us was the waitress Ashley. She was very friendly, attentive and kept checking on us to make sure we were good even when it was a full night.

    Food was outstanding. We tried the sampler appetizer, can't recall the name but had calamari and a jalapeño blossom(?), all 3 items were great. Got 4 rolls and all outstanding, fresh water (I think is the name) was a revelation. Our waiter was also super impressive and conversational. Just a great spot all around.

    Crunchy Roll

    We came for lunch--two items for $13.25. It was well worth it! Loved the vegetables spring roll and the crunchy roll. It's beautiful inside and service was awesome! We'll be back...

    Steak with teriyaki sauce
    Amy V.

    This sushi bar is located in a small shopping plaza. Which is quite a busy area in town. But plenty of parking. We had amazing service. They were super busy and the food took a little longer to come out. But everything was delicious. Appetizer: Pick 3 plate we chose were 2 small crab cakes, 2 jalapeño blossoms(Jalapeño popper) cut in half, some calamari sticks. It wasn't worth the price. But it was enough to feed 5 people if you want to taste test a bite. I say it's more for 2 people. Also got the seaweed salad. It was so good and flavorful. Entrees: We got 2 steak meals. One was teriyaki and omg!! The flavor of that dish isn't too sweet or overwhelming. The steaks are nice sized thickness, cook perfectly to our taste buds. My steak had the lemon pepper seasoning and it was delicious. I opted for steamed veggies and brown rice.(More like fried rice) Tempura combo: This dish was huge with lots of food. My sister is a huge fan of tempura and this one won her heart. Crunchy roll: it was so creamy from the cream cheese and crunchy. Udon noodle: took too long to come out. Flavors were a bit lacking. Had carrots, chicken, udon noodles. Came with a thin ginger sake tasting sauce. My sister ate it with the teriyaki sauce that was included on the steak. She said it tasted better that way. So try that instead. Dessert: Fried tempura cheesecake. The waiter said it was small. But when we received it, it was pretty big! Lol! It was decorated so pretty and tasted so amazing. Once again, my tempura obsessed sister said it was delicious!! So try it!!

    Are they open today on Memorial Day? I've been calling for 30 minutes to confirm hours and nobody there is picking up. Website says they're open till 9:30 but it is a national holiday.

    I don't know, I'm a customer too.

    My husband and I ended up here the other night after showing up to Mr. Nobu's and being told there…read morewas an hour wait. We are so glad dinner plans changed because we LOVED this place!! The server/host did a great job of being super friendly and talkative along with making sure we were well informed on the menu and hearing we made good choices on our food selections. We ordered the stuffed jalapeños - which if you go, You must get!! For rolls we got 1. Tulsa Roll 2. Fire Dragon Roll 3. Tornado Roll (fried) All were so tasty, each in their own way. We were super impressed all around and will be back. I can't stop thinking about the stuffed jalapeños

When a…read morewaiter/waitress takes my order & asks about spice level, I usually "play it safe" & go to a 3 (their scale was 1-5... spice level 3 was subtle). Speaking of flavor, I'm sure the special blended soy sauce played a major part. On top of that, there's chili sauce at the table & that right there has a Shawn Michaels super kick to it. With the bowl being full of chicken along with the other components like fish cake, seaweed, bamboo shoots, green onion & a soft boiled egg (that's also flavored)... it's not even an overload. It's flavor on top of flavor on top of flavor. I couldn't even finish it & took it to-go. My waitress was super nice & the wait on my food didn't take long (they had a mini lunch rush when I got here). Outside of ramen, there's so much to choose from. Whether you're in the mood for ramen, sushi, bowls, etc... this is your spot. I was having a headache & really needed some food to help get rid of it (I was also in the area). Ramen usually does the trick & it prevailed as I started feeling better. Oishi came in the clutch.

We have the edamame, side green salad, crunch roll, eel roll.. just to name a few items. On OUR END, those are what we enjoy while there. We would like to venture over to the bento options. The rice and teriyaki chicken is great for our small one. There is something on the menu for everyone. The wasabi and ginger on the trays are pretty good! I do recommend. We have tried more super sushi operations in Tulsa.. I hear some mention they won't eat seafood or sushi far away from the coastlines. That is totally understandable. Most are in fear of the food borne illness etc etc. We have been frequent visitors here. They also serve cooked and/or deep fried rolls; along with other hot food options on the menu. Hope y'all

We really loved that you can order rolls in different sizes, 2 pieces, 4 pieces, or a full roll, so you can try more without overdoing it. You do get charged if you don't finish the food your order- you can't take it home sadly. The food was fresh, the restaurant was clean, and there were plenty of great choices on the menu. Service was a little spotty at times. Our original server disappeared for a bit, but other staff stepped in to help, which we appreciated. They didn't have the fried tempura vegetables, one of our favorites, but there were still plenty of tasty dishes to enjoy. I should have done better with the pics, I think I got excited. Overall, a solid experience, and we will definitely be back.

I like flavor, but not spicy heat. There are an abundance of options. Also a couple of soups (egg drop my favorite, mix of egg drop with wanton for my mom). There are also fruit and sweets for dessert. My standard is their ice cream and an almond cookie. My true love at this restaurant is having a small amount of many tasty oriental dishes. Service is always polite and considerate. When I dine alone with my e-reader, service is unobtrusive. Noise is not excessive, and i appreciate the tall booths to give a bit of privacy. Overall a relaxing experience each time.

The staff is friendly and they try to keep it clean and I understand they're just trying to do their job and make money, but I really think they need to read some reviews and spend some extra money on good quality produce meats, etc..

    My wife and I tried this restaurant for the first time after having lived in Bartlesville for two…read moreyears. We wished, after having went, that we had tried it when we first moved to Bartlesville. We've had amazing hibachi in the past when we lived in Ohio. I have reviews for them on Yelp, also. We've been on the search, though, since that time to find a good hibachi restaurant here in Oklahoma. Our search is now over. The service was very kind and prompt. Refills were offered and empty plates were picked up quickly. The food, itself was of very good quality. Everything was hot and fresh and cooked how we had ordered it. Everything was seasoned appropriately. Nothing was salty or overly or under seasoned. The ambience is very nice and the concept, itself, is very well executed. This restaurant is divided into two parts: one side is where they have a hibachi table and a chef cooking the food in front of you... The other is just a regular sit down restaurant where they bring the food to you already prepared. When we went, my wife and I both had the New York strip and chicken hibachi meals. These came with miso soup and a salad. The salad is dressed with Yum Yum sauce. I would say that the salad was good, but it was really only about half full and there could've been more salad in the bowl. Soup was also very good and it also could have been more full. Those are the only negative things if you want to call them that which I would have to say. The food was excellent. Overall hibachi was the best I've had since Ohio. We will definitely be coming back! My wife said that this is her new favorite restaurant in Bartlesville :-)

I asked the younger girl…read morewith dark hair and glasses at the counter for a couple things of yumyum sauce she looked at me like I had just asked for her first born child, said nothing, turned around, grabbed one, set it down. I said oh sorry can I have another. (Because a couple means more than one) Again stared at me says nothing grabs it puts it down. She ligit stared at me like i had just cussed her out and like she wanted to hurt me. It was the most rude and uncomfortable experience I think i have ever encountered. Im not sure what I did to upset her. I hadn't even talked to her before this interaction. She then ran to the back back and told her manager that I had asked for yumyum sauce I think because my friend (with a seprate to go order) then went up and asked for yumyum sauce and the woman manager said "we already gave you one" The only reason id keep going is because its the only decent sushi place in town. Service is usually terrible because its basically all children in high-school or just out of high school. Cheap labor does not equal good service. I hope the owners see this and correct the way their staff behaves. im just done with buying food from them. We usually spend $60-70 everytime we go.
