    Rainbow roll
    Melinda V.

    We were tired of eating only Puerto Rican food while we visited there so, we were excited to try something new, so we went to an Asian restaurant. But it wasn't all it was cracked up to be. It took forever for someone to come to our table and take our drink orders. When they finally did, they were friendly and spoke both English and Spanish. But then, things went downhill. It seemed like our orders were being placed separately, so we got our food at different times. Some of us had already finished our main courses, while others were still waiting. By the time our second group got their food, we were done. This delay was a total pain in the neck. We tried to find our server to ask about it, but it was hard to get her attention. So, our service was terrible. Even though the food was okay, the whole experience was ruined. The ambiance was nice, and we appreciated the short notice they gave us for seating, since we were a party of seven. But that shouldn't have affected our service, and it did. So, I'm giving this restaurant three stars.

    Would recommend this place for the experience however would forewarn the service is a little slow. They were able to seat us immediately which was great! The food came out quick but drinks took longer than the apps. The waiter was not knowledgeable about the menu which is much appreciated for a $$$ restaurant. The place is very well decorated and nice. We ordered seaweed salad, veggie rolls, miso soup, hot pot, pad Thai, pho, multiple sushi rolls, and beef & broccoli. Food was good so all in all I would recommend this place for the experience or take out.

    We went here without a reservation and were seated immediately. We sat outside and everything we ordered was great! The server was awesome. The drinks were great and the food was even better. We decided to chill here before a movie and we are really glad we did. I would definitely come back and I would recommend anything off the menu. The only thing that I was not too happy about is that when ordering the hot pot you have to sit inside but other than that everything was great because we sat outside that's why I decided not to wear the hot pot.

    Hot Pot Experience

    Estaba antojá de hotpot mientras visitaba pr y esto me satisfizo totalmente. La porción fue pequeña pero bueno, como cuando estoy en los estados unidos con el all you can eat, pero aún así estaba bien sabroso. El mesero fue super amable y servicial. Y mi parte favorita fue que la comida viene en una nave espacial en una cinta transportadora se siente como si estuvieras en el futuro eso fue bien cool. El lugar estaba bien bonito y limpio y definitivamente vuelvo si alguna vez estoy buscando una experiencia divertida o comida asiática bien sabrosa.

    Service was blasé, one waitress for the entire restaurant we were celebrating she brought us our check. Never asked if we wanted other drinks or cake to sing for my daughter. Food was on point so delicious fun that it arrived by train kids loved it

    There's a restaurant and then there's a little drink hut outside. We got the iced coffee and espresso. We were not acknowledged for ten minutes because the worker had Air Pods in and an "i don't care attitude". I originally wanted the milk tea with lychee but they ran out of lychee. Iced coffee was fine, did not get a lid with it which I found odd. Iced coffee was $7 as well, it was not a latte or anything. We went around 6pm and the restaurant had seats inside and outside. It looks like the outside seats are for dine in only. Since we purchased from the entity, we decided to sit there anyways because of the vacancy. The couple after us did the same. As I was sitting down, a host from inside just stared at me. Overall, super poor service.

    Yaki Udon (to go)

    Don't sleep on their general tso chicken! And their Yaki Udon with chicken or beef. delicious. I also don't usually order spring rolls but their chicken spring rolls are a must.

    It was a perfect meal for our group. We were looking for Asian food and this hit the spot. We sat at a regular table not at the booth which we were fine with as we came for the food. They had a nice variety of rolls to choose from. I was craving veggies and the Buddha delight fulfilled my needs. Pad Thai was very good. The tacos were creative with the taro taco shell and spicy tuna filling...I definitely enjoyed this combo. It was a nice place for our large group and I would come back

    Space ship delivery system
    Michelle B.

    Went in for dinner on Sunday night. The restaurant appeared to be well-run and organized; the space ship delivery system was super fun and an added bonus to the dining experience. Food: * Thai chicken wings: Overcooked, but delicious sauce; wish the wings were tossed in the sauce rather than it being served on the side * Tuna tataki: Good, needed more spice in both the tuna and the soy; maybe a ponzu would have solved this * Mongolian beef and rice: beef was tender but lacked flavor * Soft shell crab roll: Needed more eel sauce or something to bring it together * After burner: favorite roll The because of the space ship food delivery system, the service wasn't easy to find. We didn't order drinks because we couldn't find a server to order order them - even just getting water was a challenge.

    Outside, one of the entrance to T-Mobile district. Area resturant is located.

My parents had eaten here before and said it was really good, so we were excited to see if it lived up to the hype. The restaurant had a lively, bustling atmosphere, with a steady stream of customers dining in and picking up takeout orders. Even though it was busy, the staff kept things moving efficiently. Even for a large order, the wait was only about 30 minutes. They have a separate pickup area for to-go orders, which made the process organized and easy despite how busy they were. We ordered the beef fried rice, house fried rice, churrasco steak, house lo mein, sesame beef, jumbo shrimp, chicken wings, fried pork, pork ramen, and three sushi rolls. The kids in our family chose the Philly Roll, Salmon Avocado Roll, and Red Dragon Roll, and they really enjoyed them. I had originally planned to order a different sushi roll from the menu, but it wasn't available that day. It wasn't a big deal, though, because the rolls we did get were fresh and delicious. Everything was flavorful and well prepared. The churrasco steak was my personal favorite--the meat was incredibly tender and already well seasoned on its own. My husband wasn't a fan of the accompanying sauce, but he agreed the steak itself was excellent. We also really enjoyed the fried rice, and the portions were generous. They were also generous with the condiments and included a variety of sauces with our order, which we appreciated. The only thing we missed was chili oil, since it's a condiment we usually expect to have available at Chinese restaurants. If you're staying nearby or looking for a restaurant that offers both Chinese and Japanese cuisine, Tayzan is definitely worth checking out. Just be prepared for a crowd--it seems to be popular for a reason!

He brought our drinks over and the beer wasn't bad. It did end up raining while we were sitting out in the open, but we quickly ran over to a covered area and the staff cleared our other table and set us up at a new one in the covered space.

I look forward to coming back soon!

The perfect Asian-Boricua fusion! Dishes we tried: (Almost the entire menu) - Okonomiyaki Bacalaito: The most I was excited to try. Japanese style pancake inspired by Puerto Rican cod fritters. Great flavors but the execution could improve. I would have like the 'bacalaito' to be more crispy. - Cabrito Dumpling: Tender goat stew dumpling with Asian spices. It was tasty but be mindful that the 'cabrito' flavors are rich and intense specially in this take. Also the dough was a little thick to my liking. Not light. - Fried Brussels Sprouts: One of my fav!! Crispy, addictive and coated with bold Asian sauces. - Korean Fried Chicken (KFC): Crunchy, sticky and packed with sweet/spicy flavors. Dig in with your fingers for a more enjoyable experience. - Yukhoe Steak Tartare: Another one of the FAV! This dish was outstanding. Tender pieces of steak mixed with an egg yolk to give it the perfect smoothness and richness. Comes with lite rice crackers to pair with but we also other the 'tostones' with garlic and it was a match made in heaven, succulent! - PPP Salad: Perfect for transitioning from appetizers to main course. Composed of cucumber, pomegranate and 'platanutres' very refreshing like a palette cleansing. - Daniel Udon Noodle: Paired with 'longaniza' sausage this time, protein can vary. This dish delivered the best umami flavors. The noodles had great texture. - A la Vietnamita, Chuleta: The 'chuleta' (pork chop) were perfectly cooked, tasty. I fought for the bone piece. Comes with side of lettuce leaves, to make wraps. - Where's the Beef: Grilled picanha steak, we ask for medium, it was juice and flavorful. Comes with a delicious crying tiger béarnaise sauce. Also sticky rice. - Dessert, Service was great. Our server was friendly and very helpful. He gave us amazing recommendations. We paired the whole food experience with an organic orange wine from Los Angeles that was different but really good. It can get a little noisy but that's the vibe. Lively and exciting. Highly recommend for adventurous foodies!
