    Chicken pad Thai
    Fran D.

    Quaint little restaurant in Lowell! We came in with a group of 10 and they accommodated us immediately. They staff was very attentive. They took our drink orders quickly and thankfully gave us time to look over the many menu options. There are so many amazing plutons in the menu from sushi to Thai food. We thought the food would take a long time to prepare because we had a huge group but we had all our food in less than 20 minutes! The food arrived warm. The portions were huge. I ordered the chicken pad Thai. It was so fresh & full of flavor! I couldn't eat all of it. I ate half & took the rest to go. We'll def go back when In Lowell!!

    This spot has a blend of different cuisines in one spot. Overall food was tasty! Not too familiar with this cuisine so I can't comment on how traditional this spot is. Spot is great for both small and large groups. They also have a large drink menu so everyone will have something they like. Parking can be difficult since this spot is located right in downtown Lowell.

    We had lunch here. They had indoor and outdoor seating. Staff was friendly and helpful. We ordered a couple of Thai dishes and some sushi. Food was good and we will visit again when we're in the area.

    Thai food good. Japanese food, no thanks. This is a thai restaurant run by Thai people and they make good Thai food. The pad Thai was very sweet and very delicious probably one of my top five pad Thai's ever. The crazy noodle was good but the beef was sinewy and grisly. Maybe I'm a little biased cuz I'm from Japan but the nabiyaki udon was nothing like I've ever had before and the soup was too light in my professional opinion. The chirashi was pretty good except for the fish being all frozen and the slices being too big. My sister's biggest complaint was that it was on a plate and not in a bowl as is the tradition of Japan. She also said the rice was meh and i concur with her.

    Volcano Roll.  Perfection on a plate

    OMG, if I thought the Kiss of Fire was good, then HOLD ON TO YOUR SOCKS FOR THE************ ************VOLCANO ROLL******************************* $15.95 It was absolute perfection. Now mind you, I'm already familiar with volcano rolls and I know they come topped with an ambrosia of Krab, spicy mayo and roe. Its the best part in my opinion. But if you don't like, sayyyy spicy mayo, the def avoid. My boyfriend wouldn't even try a bite, but damn was my tongue singing. The roll is HUGE, like MASSIVE and the topping plentiful. At $15.95 its both the most expensive and the best Volcano roll I've ever had. I will be back. Tried the Crab rangoon, they were just "OK". Stick with the sushi, nom nom nom. My boyfriend ordered the cashew nut chicken extra spicy and they were very accommodating. I can't wait to be back. It's NOT cheap, which is a bummer but you get the quality you pay for.

    My favorite place to go to get sushi....the crab Rangoon is super yummy as well. I love to come here because there are so many options to choose from on the menu & they always have someone on the piano at night which sounds so lovely!!!!

    Oops. The sushi was good. Ate it too fast

    We decided to eat here because we were going to a show that was local. Hadn't been here before but the previous yelp review sounded promising. We got to sit outside by the canal, and it was very enjoyable and inviting. Our waiter was absolutely adorable and extremely helpful. Loved your wild boar bracelet. We got some sushi for appetizer and then got choo Chee tofu and some rice. Everything was really good, and very surprisingly not too hot. Just right. Wish we had a chance to sample drinks, but we didn't this time. We will definitely be back to try some more

Wasabi Shumai: Nice nasal jolt. Softer, looser, wetter, more finely ground inner texture than typical. Not warm at all. A little below average. Egg Rolls: Crisp outside, moistly stringy inside (in a good way), with decent flavor. Could use more stuffing, and it's cabbage based (some hate, but I don't), but it worked. A little above average. Moo Shi Beef: Big, tender beef chunks in surprising abundance-- around 70% protein, which is practically unheard of. Vegetables crunchy and moist, as opposed to swimming in liquid. Four pancakes were enough. Above average. Mongolian Beef: Another surprise here, as it arrived sizzling. More big chunks of tender beef, sitting atop onions and other vegetables beneath. Not much crusting or additional flavor, but the natural beef flavor and just enough juices to keep it going were sufficient. A little above average. House Fried Rice: Light brown grains, but plenty of beef, pork, and shrimp to add both flavor and moisture, taking it to a middle ground between subgum fried and yang chow. Some egg, some peas, some carrots, some saltiness (noticeable but not problematic). Above average. Nothing hit elite, but good time for sure, and for a sushi-first restaurant merely sidelining in Chinese, more than respectable.

The atmosphere is upscale yet welcoming--modern decor, lively vibe without being overwhelmingly loud The staff was super attentive and friendly from the moment we walked in, making great recommendations. We started with the salt & pepper calamari and some dumplings--both were fresh, perfectly crispy, and packed with flavor. For mains, the fried rice was spot-on (flavorful and not greasy at all), and the torched tuna with truffle butter sauce was absolutely divine--such a creative fusion twist! The sushi options looked incredible too, and everything came out hot and beautifully presented. Portions are generous, and the quality really stands out compared to other places nearby. Drinks were solid as well if you're into cocktails. We'll definitely be back--it's become our go-to for date nights or when we crave something a little special. Highly recommend Karma if you're in the Andover area.

The Salmon on Fire was delicious and honorable mention goes to the Dragon Fire roll (sushi rolls are giant).

Approachable menu with as much fusion as authentic Korean. -- Chicken Wings: Jumbo wings with extra crispness and an inner texture varying between sufficiently moist and gushingly juicy, depending on the piece. Always liked them, and I tried twice more recently with similar positive results. Excellent flavor in both the Soy Garlic and the Sweet and Spicy Gochujang. Superb, and with no price hikes in at least five years, now an excellent value too. -- Kimchi Pancake: Crispy on the edges and fluffier inside, with kimchi adding some crunch and nice flavor to go with the starch. Thin dark sauce to complement it. I think of it as a Korean cross between scallion pancake and egg foo yong. Good for sharing. -- Seafood Jampong: A large bowl of seafood stew with a red broth that has some creaminess as well as spice. Nice texture and chock full of large mussels, scallops, shrimp (gigantic Gulf shrimp as well as baby shrimp), Asian squid, and noodles. The squid was a little chewy, but everything else was cooked beautifully. This dish satisfied both in the restaurant and as leftovers the next day. Good choice for family meal, date meal, or chowing with the buds meal.

For food, they offer the usual suspects such as appetizers (gyoza, spring rolls, shumai crab rangoons, edamame, skewers, chicken fingers, scallion pancake...), soup, salads, noodle soups, stir fried noodles, fried rice, bento boxes, teriyaki dinners, katsu, donburi, sushi rolls, and sashimi entrees and appetizers. The pricing is moderate here. On my way back home, I passed through Lowell and decided to stop in at Koto for takeout, later in the evening before closing time. The place wasn't too busy on a hot weeknight. I decided on the Shrimp & Veggie Yaki Udon Noodles ($16 plus tax), which was hot, ready and bagged in a nice looking sealed Koto reusable bag. The food was still hot when I arrived home about 30 minutes later. The portion seemed modest, but expected since I ordered the thick round udon noodles. This dish had a mix of soft udon noodles, carrots, broccoli, onions, red peppers, cabbage, zucchini, and tender shrimp (cleaned). Other than the noodle dish being a bit overcooked, it tasted pretty good. I will very likely order the pork katsu with rice & salad or a bento box on the next visit to Koto in Lowell.

    This place was dead at 10pm on a wednesday. I showed up at 10:30, having read the flyer stating…read morekaraoke starts at 10pm... false advertising. I am standing there while the "DJ" literally sits and eats drinks and smokes, and the excuse to sit around and do nothing is he "has no singers". I arrive half an hour after the official start time and he would not let me do karaoke. This guy does the same thing wherever he goes it's crazy. Then the angry owner protects his friend rather than hold him accountable for not doing his job.. It's no wonder the nightlife scene in Lowell is dead. These people put their delinquent friends and/or family before their customers. Hopefully some business-minded people will take these spots over where, these people are taking the location and the local people for granted. The fact that he even said, "starting at 10pm" is crazy, and shows how out of touch and uncaring these business people are, as any1 with a middleschool education can clearly see the entire problem was that karaoke...from my own FIRST HAND ACCOUNT, hadn't started at 10pm. Yes, please do as this guy says; be there at 10pm like I did and see if the karaoke isn't started by 10:33 pm (which is when I finally left) or even 10pm as he's claiming, make sure you also leave this owner a 1 Star review to prevent more uppity out-of-town business owners who think they run the place from taking advantage of local spots where good businesses would actually thrive and add value to the area instead of more smug, cynical, every man for himself, here today, gone tomorrow turn-key bullcrap. This guy is delusional... everything I stated was a first hand account, for him to flat out LIE is crazy. Also the story he is giving here doesn't match up with what he said in his own restaurant. I had a face to face convo with this guy INSIDE the restaurant.. the karaoke hadn't started and he knew that because he told me, "this DJ had a method where he waits for a bunch of singers to show up". So this guy KNEW and yet he calls out the truth on me, what a snake. What a pompous, nose-in-the-air person this guy is. Untruths, lol a word the news uses to blanket discount anything any1 says. Goes to show even people with money can be crazy, it's not just the guy strung out sitting on trash. Also, this DJ's "method" is him sitting around drinking, smoking, and ordering drinks WELL PAST the karaoke start time. I literally went to another location that "hires" him (more like a charity donation) and it was LITERALLY past 11:30 pm and this same DJ hadn't started yet despite the start time being 10pm.... These big business types want you to shut up and take it and be quiet, they care nothing of the service they provide.
