But they were also fairly quick with the appetizers that we tried. The barbecue tofu was surprisingly delicious with a great texture and yummy sauce. The Gyoza was also a fan favorite with a light crispy bottom and a good filling. We tried two different ramens with two different proteins. The beef was a bit, tough and dry, but the chashu was nice and soft like melting in your mouth. The broth was also good and the noodles were nice and thin. Overall, I felt like this was a nice bite to eat and definitely filling. The only thing I felt that was lacking was the service on refilling water. I would definitely come back if I was around the area. They definitely got busy pretty quick.

It took more than a few minutes to be greeted/served. The waitress didn't ask if we wanted any additional drinks. We were happy to wait for the ramen and the sushi, but my salad (which was removed from the bill after i asked) never came, and it was a 15 minute wait for a bowl of miso soup. By the time we ended up getting the soup, then another 20 minutes for the entrees, most of the restaurant had cleared out, and we were one of two tables left. The waitress never filled or asked to refill our waters, had to be flagged down to get the check, and took a long time to actually run our card. Didn't sit well with me. I understand there were only three on the floor, but if that is their standard lunch rush, they need to hire additional help. The food was fine. No one got food poisoning, but my party and I agreed we'd all had the same dish done better elsewhere. Had a huge problem with the sake descriptions as well. The one we got was described as "fruity and full bodied". Takes one sip and a google search to figure the main flavor is umami.

Fantastic Experience for Our Group Event!…read more I recently organized an after-work event for 20 people at Japango, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! From the very beginning, Manager Hayden was incredible to work with. He coordinated everything with me by email and phone, was responsive and accommodating, and made excellent recommendations for our set menu. He truly had all the bases covered--beef, chicken, vegetarian options, and, of course, mountains of amazing sushi! Everything was delicious, and the service was outstanding. We also added a birthday celebration, which the team handled with ease and made feel special. Even some of our non-sushi lovers commented afterward about how great the food was! The event room was fantastic, and everyone loved the jellyfish tank--it was such a fun and unique touch. A huge thank you to Hayden and the entire Japango team for making our event such a success. I'm already looking forward to booking another event with them! Highly recommended!

We ordered; Pan fried Gyoza pork dumplings - so tasty and would absolutely order again The Lucky 7 roll - it is a fried roll and comes in the shape of a 7. The flavor was great and I would order next time as well as try some other sushi. Chicken hibachi - pretty standard hibachi, the rice and veggies were really good but the noodles did lack some flavor for both of us. Steak and Scallop - the scallops were delicious and probably the best part of the hibachi. The chicken and steak were a bit over cooked, and another patron ordered shrimp and salmon, which the salmon looked really well done/over cooked and we all got a piece of shrimp which was also pretty over cooked. Overall, we will definitely come back, most likely for the sushi and appetizers.

We originally planned to stay for happy hour, but ended up spending nearly three hours there because we were enjoying ourselves so much. Social is one of those rare places that completely lives up to the hype. From the moment you walk downstairs, the atmosphere transports you to another era. The speakeasy vibe is authentic without feeling gimmicky, and every detail has clearly been thoughtfully designed. It's a super cool speakeasy with a warm, inviting interior that makes you want to settle in and stay awhile. We shared the charcuterie board, which was excellent, and enjoyed both the champagne and the bourbon. Everything was high quality and thoughtfully prepared. Ryan, our bartender, really made the experience special. He treated us exceptionally well, made us feel genuinely welcome, and provided outstanding service throughout the evening. What started as a plan to enjoy happy hour turned into one of the most enjoyable evenings we've had in a long time. It's the perfect place for a date night or simply a relaxing evening with exceptional food, outstanding cocktails, and an atmosphere that's second to none. We'll definitely be back now that we live here in Fort Collins. If you're looking for an unforgettable experience in Fort Collins, Social is an absolute must-visit. Highly recommended!

On that screen it says "Lunch Special $3.99" yet she claimed it was an error and chaged me $4.65. I complained but had no time to go elsewhere. Then I found coupons too, and bought one.

The dumplings were perhaps the most off-putting--the filling had an unpleasant taste and texture that made them hard to enjoy. We've been loyal customers for quite some time, and while the last few visits were disappointing, we kept hoping it was just an off day. Sadly, it now seems like a consistent decline rather than a one-time issue.

Anyway, somewhere I'd heard relatively good things, so I stopped in for take-out when I found myself on this side of town. It was well into the dinner hour but the place was relatively empty - just a couple of people at one table. In retrospect, I should have taken this as a sign. I ordered one of my go-to dishes - pad see ew - and decided to try the fried tofu as an appetizer. I am struggling to find anything positive to say, so I'll just give it to you straight. The pad see ew had barely any broccoli, which to me is essential to the dish. I ordered it with beef - they used steak, but it was cut into tiny pieces and tough - cooked too fast and too well done most likely. The tofu was deep fried hard - as in there was a really hard crust - and it was packaged with absolutely no garnish, just the hard blocks of tofu and a container of sauce. I'm not sure if they've recently changed ownership or if I caught them on a bad day - it just seems weird to me that my experience was so contrary to all of the other reviews. I may give them another chance, but I can't say that I'm going to hurry back.
