    Pretty decent sushi and bento place. I came here Friday evening for some quick dinner. The place is small and limited in parking spots and few tables for dine in. They sell some groceries besides food, price is tiny bit higher than big Asian groceries. I got spicy tuna rolls and chicken teriyaki. It took less than 10 minutes for the food to get ready. Tuna roll was big and rice is soft. Chicken teriyaki was okay. I enjoyed the salad came with the meal. Overall it was a good dinner.

    Just my kind of place! Small unassuming place you would miss if you didn't have a GPS. So I was in the mood for Japanese takeout and this place nailed it. Very good menu with lots of choices. Reasonably priced and extremely friendly service. Inside doesn't have much in the way of seating which is fine. Actually a small Asian grocery is part of this place. So cool. The food is fresh, carefully prepared (looks pretty and appetizing) and tasty. Spicy ginger pork was very yummy. Not too much spice. Gyoza were amazing. I could make a meal out of that. Shrimp dumplings were ok. Could be from frozen. Sushi was good. Fresh, nothing crazy but it is a side along with the box. Lots of food for the price. I mean look at the pic! I will def be back!

    A lot of people recommended this place, and I'm so glad I went. Ordered the udon, the chicken cutlet box with a spicy tuna roll instead of California roll, and a side of rice. Everything was fantastic. So simple, so comforting, even though this isn't something I grew up with. I did a little shopping while waiting for my food, and while there wasn't a huge selection, there were some great staples for me to restock my pantry at home. The food was well-packaged for the drive back, and nothing spilled. The people were kind, the place was clean, the food was great...what more do you need?

    Salmon lovers, (miso soup and salad came with it) and dumplings

    This sushi was some of the best I've had in awhile and I eat a lot of sushi. The rice was so fresh and soft, the fish was fresh, the miso soup was perfect and the dumpling sauce was so tangy. I haven't had ginger dressing since moving to the area and the salad was so refreshing here. I am so glad we went there today!! The deal was amazing as well. Such good prices! I even tried a new drink and loved it! Overall great experience.

    Spicy pork ginger bento box! Seasoned so well that I order it every time.  I'll try to check out the rest of the menu next time.

    Bento-Ya is an Asian grocery store and cafe hybrid. The selection of groceries is small, down to the necessities/staples, however their menu is as plentiful as any other Japanese restaurant minus the hibachi. You have an array of sushi, kitchen dishes, and bento boxes to choose from. I've had the spicy pork ginger bento box and it's packed with flavor and not spicy to me. The bento boxes are good portions and includes the main entree, miso soup, ginger salad, seaweed salad, pork dumplings, rice, and half of a cali or spicy tuna roll. Place and pay for your meal order at the counter. There's a small seating area in the back room past the two grocery aisles. It's not ideal for large groups, more so a quick dine in spot. Don't expect alcohol and wait service where you can spend hours there shooting the sake. It's not that type of venue. There's a small parking lot, but if that's ever full, there's residential street parking available. The owners are friendly, the location is on a main road, the food is good, and you can do some shopping too.

    This is our favorite sushi joint. Eating area located in the back of an authentic Asian store. Prices are good and service is great.

    Good sushi. Decent prices. Grocery store atmosphere, definitely not what anyone would consider to be a restaurant.

    We've been to other revolving sushi restaurants in different cities, so we were excited to give…read moreUmai a try--and it delivered a really fun experience. The space is cozy and inviting, with booths wrapped around the conveyor belt so you can immediately start eyeing the plates gliding by. The sushi on the belt was fresh and tasty, though we noticed the selection leaned a bit heavily toward spicy‑mayo‑based rolls. Everything we tried was delicious, but we would have loved to see a little more variety for those who prefer something less saucy. Thankfully, the touchscreen ordering system made it easy to branch out. You can order drinks and à la carte sushi directly from the screen, and your items arrive on a dedicated upper‑deck conveyor that zips your order straight to your table. It's a clever setup and really helps round out the meal with more options. Drinks were delivered by an adorable robot, which added a fun, whimsical touch. Tables were cleared promptly, and the whole experience felt smooth and well‑run. We had a great time and will definitely be returning.

You are seated at a tablet in front of a conveyor belt with the sushi making it's way around the restaurant. You can take whatever catches your eye as it passes in front of you, or you can order from the tablet. If you order from the tablet, little cars bring the food on a second, higher conveyor belt above the first one, or sometimes a robot brings it to your seat. So there are 2 moving belts, robots, and servers. It's a lot! Fun, but be aware. It is cool that you can see things moving past and try different things. The plates on the belt are also less than a full order, which means you can try more things, if that's your style. Service is pretty quick since you're helping yourself from the belt. They do a good job making sure there is a variety of items on the belt and seemed to restock pretty quickly. You can mostly chose from rolls and nigiri. I do like American style rolls, and enjoyed the options. The guy prefers nigiri. We ordered some tempura and picked some nigiri from the menu as well. I really enjoyed the veggie tempura. They have good salmon - we tried the peppered salmon, which he thought was too much, but was smokey and peppery, and I enjoyed. There was also a spicy yellowtail, and plain salmon that was also nice quality. We shared an ice cream sundae with one of the little fish shaped cakes for dessert, which was really good. I liked the little cake with the red bean paste inside. It was fun and pretty low key.

That said- the Google reviews are stellar and that's amazing in any town. So, my husband and I are Ramen fans and it's even hard to find a great spot in our hometown of Tampa and that's a big city. So we were excited to give The Fuse a try! Wow! We were certainly glad we did. We each ordered the Tonkatsu Ramen with pork. My husband opted for the spicy version and 2 orders of edamame! You wouldn't think you could mess up edamame - but restaurants do. Not here though. The Ramen was DELICIOUS. Perfectly seasoned broth, delectable pork, perfectly cooked noodles and bamboo shoots- both dishes really hit the spot! The staff are friendly and preparation was relatively quick! You could tell this place was popular by the "revolving door" of take out patrons and DoorDash drivers as well as the folks dining in! Tonight was a pleasant surprise and we can't wait to return and try the sushi offerings! The Fuse is a must visit if Ramen and sushi are your speed. Don't let a trip to Oswego not include a taste of The Fuse.

I chose this place because it offers not only sushi but also some dim sum dishes. It's a great place to try something new. We waited almost an hour for a seat on a busy night, but since it's an all-you-can-eat restaurant, I think it was reasonable. There were about 10 people ahead of me on the waiting list, and the food quality remained delicious throughout the meal. The service was also keeping up with the demand. The sashimi was incredible. I can't say I don't like any sashimi, but I love them all. Almost every sushi and sashimi we ordered was delicious. However, there's one thing I don't care for: the sticky rice shumai/shu mai. We think it's lacking in flavor. Overall, we had a great time at this restaurant. The food was delicious, and the service was good. I do think there's room for improvement in the dessert menu. They could add a few more options, like fresh fruits, Japanese mochi, or egg tarts. That's just my opinion, though.
