The food was amazing, and the service was great. Our food was plated in a very cute manner. Our spicy California roll had a swan made of cucumber and oranges, and after eating our dragon fly roll we saw that the cucumbers formed hearts with a carrot butterfly resting on an orange flower. Adorable! Appearance aside, the food tasted great and came out quickly. Our server was super attentive and very kind. Overall a great experience and can't wait to return to try other dishes!

Firecracker Roll and pickled cucumbers
Adrienne A.

This place continue to be fantastic, a great sushi happy hour choice. I wish there were more alcoholic offerings for HH, as I'm not big on martinis, but still the food variety is great. This time we started off as usual with an avocado bomb and heart attack - these are must order items!! Then we tried 2 new things - the spicy pork bulgogi lettuce wrap, which were very great and a nice way to vary up what we ordered, and for sushi we decide to try the Oakley Dokey. This roll was good but I think I still prefer the Firecracker off the HH menu - although there are a few more I want to try that I haven't yet that could change that. Service during happy hour has always been good and quick to get food out. Definitely the most affordable and delicious sushi option that I know of in the area!

Lunch Sashimi Bento

The food was incredible! I got a lunch sashimi bento box that was delicious. It came with super thick cut sashimi,and was a lot of food for the price. Great lunch spot!

Love at First Sight Roll and Salmon Sake
Chris U.

I'm a fan of Fosters. I've been here now twice I think and it has fresh sushi and tasty. Had love at first sight roll and some sake salmon. The martini I wasn't a fan of but. Everything else was excellent and service was good.

Amazing sushi and service, the vibe was nice and there is a nice patio you can sit at and enjoy the music from the chop shop. Location is perfect and parking was easy. The sushi was very fresh we will be coming back for sure

Dragon Roll, Salmon Heaven Roll
Tommy K.

Fosters is a hidden gem amongst downtown Roanoke. They have great selection of rolls and appetizers. The servers are very helpful and the Sushi chefs are absolutely dialed in. The panfried dumplings are some of the best i've ever had. They also have hibachi on the menu as well, which is very nicely priced. It's in a great location and the inside is clean and nicely decorated. Give it a shot the next time you're craving sushi.

I've been coming to this place for years and is by far the best hibachi restaurant I've ever been…read moreto! The food and staff are beyond amazing. The staff always welcomes us in and remembers our orders which is impressive since I have a family of 5. I've been to many other hibachi restaurants but no food has ever compared to theirs. The yum yum sauce is sooo good and so is the steak! Also best steak i've ever had. 100% recommend this restaurant!!!!

The hibachi meal is worth it. It comes with soup, salad, your choice of meat entree, stir fried…read morevegetables, fried rice, noodles, and a sample shrimp. I like that they have combinations (e.g. filet mignon&chicken). We loved the filet mignon. The chicken was a little dry both times we have ordered it; ask the hibachi chef for some of the teriyaki sauce on the side. I am not a shrimp fan, but shrimp in their yum yum sauce - holy cow! I am seriously considering ordering shrimp and scallops as my meal next time, because the seafood in yum yum sauce is amazing here. The staff is super friendly and readily accommodated my husband's endless requests. (Can I get mine with a double portion of fried rice? Two soups instead of soup and salad? A dish of that teriyaki sauce on the side?) Our favorite hibachi chef is Antonio. He was creative, friendly, and jived well with the family extroverts. The interior looks classiest after dark because of the lighting, so we will make a habit of coming more often in the winter. In the daylight it's just all right. The noise level and seating arrangements may make it difficult to have a conversation with more than one or two other people at your table, which is common in a hibachi restaurant. There was also a vent in the exhaust hood that rattled loudly over my head the whole time, but we were still able to carry on a conversation between four of us when we brought my husband's parents. Overall a decent choice for a good hibachi dinner.

A few friends and I stopped by Ichiro Izakaya Yakitori on a Saturday afternoon right when they…read moreopened at 4:30, and there was already a line forming outside. If you've been wanting to try this place, I'd definitely recommend arriving early. Parking was probably the most challenging part of the visit. There was a rummage sale happening nearby, so the area was busier than usual. They do have a designated parking lot, but it's very small and fills up quickly. Most people will likely need to rely on street parking, which took a little patience that day. The restaurant itself is tiny, but that's part of the charm. There's a bar area that seats around 10 to 12 people and only a handful of tables. We were a party of three and were seated right away, but I could see larger groups having a harder time finding space together. The tables are also on the smaller side, so once the food starts arriving things can get a little crowded. That said, the food completely lived up to the hype. Everything we ordered was delicious. The chicken karaage was crispy and flavorful, the marinated ribeye was tender and packed with flavor, and my favorite dish of the night was easily the beef yakisoba. We each ordered a starter, three skewers, and a side that our server recommended, and every plate disappeared quickly. The atmosphere felt lively and busy, with Japanese figurines and decorations displayed throughout the restaurant. I overheard another guest mention that it reminded them of places they had visited in Japan, which made me appreciate the attention to detail even more. One thing to note - we were told they don't split bills, which wasn't a problem for our group, but it's something to know ahead of time if you're dining with friends.

The vibes in this place were super cozy and the decor was a mix of traditional and modern Japanese…read more Be aware though, the space is smaller and the seats fill up fast! Something to know before choosing this spot is that it is tapas inspired so a majority of the items are small plates and the skewers come with one skewer per plate. Okay now for the goods, we ordered the following items: Starters Tebasaki Chicken Wings (5) Dumplings (6) Egg rolls (2) Skewers, seafood and sides Negima (chicken thigh) Scallops Shishito peppers Kamo negima (duck) Sweet Soy Ribeye Yakiton (pork belly) Kimchi bacon fried rice Naan bread The must haves that everyone should order are definitely the wings and egg rolls. The wings were almost like a Japanese style lemon pepper. Incredible and seasoned perfectly. The egg rolls had the most crunchy and perfect texture, the filling was balanced and the dipping sauce was the perfect accompaniment. For the skewers my favorite were the chicken thigh and pork belly. The seasoning and cook on both were spot on. The ribeye was good but it could have been cooked a little less, the duck was okay but the sauce is incredibly tart and needed a hint of sweetness and the scallops were cooked well but desperately needed some salt. The kimchi fried rice was delicious, they nailed the combo of salty bacon and kimchi with the fried egg and rice. Shishito peppers and naan were both good as well, peppers were crunchy and the naan has this incredible sticky sweet sauce on top. Our service was also great, the waiter explained the menu and even though the restaurant became busy he still maintained communication. Overall, we will absolutely be back. It's one thing to have a concept and another to execute it and they've done that. Great vibes, awesome service and delicious food.

The restaurant is always well-kept and clean, and I really appreciate that the music isn't overly loud, so you can actually enjoy your meal and conversation. The hibachi experience is always fun! You get a salad and soup before watching them cook your meal right in front of you. Whether you order steak, chicken, salmon, or another option, the chefs keep you entertained and engaged throughout the cooking. It's especially fun when you're celebrating a birthday--they'll sing for you and make it feel special! One thing to keep in mind is that it can sometimes take a while to get seated on the hibachi side, especially on weekends. At times, they also wait to fill the tables before getting started, so be prepared for a little wait during busy hours. Overall, though, we really enjoy coming here. The food, atmosphere, entertainment, and experience make it one of our favorite hibachi spots, and I think the prices are very reasonable for what you get. Definitely a place we'll continue coming back to!

Hesitantly we decided to eat before we stopped off at Lowe's and headed back to finish. Stay with me here. We were a little dirty. Not filthy. Not like we had mud all over us but dressed in work out clothes. Super casual. We entered and asked for a booth, The hostess took us to the back end of the booth where there were tables filled with other patrons. I wanted a bit more privacy and asked her to sit one booth back. She said no. Not to be deterred I sit down at the booth we wanted and felt most Comfortable. We wanted some privacy and not have people all around us. The request was to literally sit one booth back...this hostess wasn't having it. She literally demanded we sit at her booth of choice. Today, it became a "I'm not moving". She "slams" the menus and walks off. That behavior had to be addressed. I'm a reasonable person but expect a certain level of customer service. After all the price of eating out....isn't cheap these days and We eat here all the time. In fact, I became the DUKE again when checking in today.... #1 patron! I take great pride in the title. I discussed my frustration with the manager. When I asked to speak with her the hostess pointed to a manager sitting at the table vs going and getting her. Rude was an understatement. The manager didn't seem overly concerned. All said, the food was wonderful. The Tuna Tower (we ask for no rice) needed more avocado. The Pan Seared dumplings Devine as usual and of course the crab Rangoon are other worldly. The spicy bad girl roll was tasty. We added cream cheese. My sister gets her usual....every time. Hibachi Filet mignon, fried rice and Ginger Salad. It's her absolute favorite and she enjoyed every bite. I don't think one person should drive the overall review but today's experience was stressful...The food 5 Stars. Consistent. That said the hostess has influence and today's 1 star review is for her an her alone. We also ran into Lencho. Lencho is the absolute best waiter. Sundays though he works on the hibachi grill side. Bummer. His smile would have turned the experience around. He's that good and we love him. This is the second time where We've not experience the best customer service. Kyushu ownership should take note.....Some southern hospitality goes a long way. Look no further than to Lencho!

A Birthday Celebration, Shopping, and Some Delicious Japanese Food!…read more Since it was my daughter's birthday, we thought, why not make a day of it? We decided to do some shopping and then grab some lunch. After getting all that shopping behind us, we headed over to Sushi Zen Japanese Bistro. As soon as we walked in, we were promptly greeted by Mr. Jay, who also happened to be our server. The Bistro itself was very elegant, quiet, clean, and well organized. Definitely a nice place to sit down, relax, and get our grub on! Mr. Jay was a very quiet young man, but extremely welcoming and polite. He promptly brought us our menus and glasses of water and gave us plenty of time to look everything over without feeling rushed. When he returned, I ordered the Yaki Soba Noodles Lunch for $5.95. My Yaki Soba came with chicken, beef, and a mix of vegetables, and let me tell you, it was delicious! It was well seasoned, full of flavor, and definitely hit the spot. My daughter ordered the Chicken Cutlet (Deep-Fried) Bento Box for $9.95, along with a Miso Soup for $1.95. Her bento box included steamed white rice, sushi rolls, gyoza, and a salad. Now, since I don't eat anything seafood-related, I had to take her word for it, but she said her meal was really delicious and well seasoned. She especially loved the salad and said it was outstanding. My wife ordered the Shrimp Tempura Bento Box for $11.95, which also came with steamed white rice, sushi, gyoza, and that same delicious salad, along with a Miso Soup for $1.95. She thoroughly enjoyed her meal as well. All three of us enjoyed our lunch, and the service from Mr. Jay was excellent. The food was flavorful, the Bistro was clean and inviting, and the prices were very reasonable. What started as a birthday shopping trip turned into a delicious lunch, and that's always a win in my book! Everything was truly outstanding, and I will definitely return again. Thank you, Mr. Jay, for helping make my daughter's birthday lunch a wonderful experience. We hope to see you there!

I don't eat sushi or a lot of the menu items, but the Salmon I had was the best that I have ever had. Of course, my wife had the Lobster, probably the most expensive item on the menu.

My point is the food was highly enjoyed by everyone, especially those who normally eat this type of cuisine. The drinks are amazing and what a variety!!! Japanese whisky and a huge wine list. PLUS, amazing sake and Japanese beer. P.s. They also have domestic and NA beer which was great since my wife doesn't drink. The service was beyond reproach. Super attentive and very informative. I have no point of reference about cost to compare too other than to say our drinks (many many drinks) was far more than the food. It was expensive, but for 8 of us, that was to be expected.
