    Attendant refusing to notice me prior to closing time.

    Closes earlier than stated on website and door. Woman at the front completely ignored me when I attempted to enter- not bothering to justify why they were closing. Terrible customer service.

    Service was great, and the food was delicious! I got my food quick, took less than 10 minutes along with 5 other friends.

    Some of the menu and ramen options

    A quaint Japanese convenience store that also makes fresh and tasty food. They have a little of everything here from varieties of groceries, snacks, drinks, ramens and ice creams to desserts and fresh made meals. The family loves coming here. We've visited twice and both times the woman behind the counter was kind and gracious. Both times we ordered a good amount of food and individual drinks for four at around $50 (2 onigiri, an order of takoyaki, 4 bentos, 4 drinks (the first time)) so, pretty reasonably priced. The food was made to order and incredibly tasty. There's a table outside, but it's a grab-n-go spot really. Overall wonderful and a new frequent spot for us!

    Working the area, and a friend wanted to try this place. It definitely feels more like a convenience store when walk in, but the smells are heavenly. The staff were so sweet and helpful. The sushi was really good. My friend really enjoyed her bento box. We will definitely be back to try other menu items and next time I'm checking out some of their desserts for sure.

    Not since The German Meat Market have I been excited for a unique restaurant/ market store in Columbia especially five points. Sushi , bento, chips , and unique desserts.

    This is the menu with food titles & associated pictures!

    Such yummy food that is always ready super quickly & served hot that has quickly become a Columbia favorite for me! I would definitely recommend going into the store to see all of the authentic Japanese food, snacks, treats, and drinks they have on display.

    Beef Amagara Don

    Super tasty hole in the wall. The beef amagara don is so good that I can't get myself to try anything else, but I'm sure it would be just as good! This place has great service and great prices. I would recommend it to everyone!

    My boyfriend and I have become regulars, we always go for the beef amagara don, it's amazing! I also highly recommend the takoyaki, it's phenomenal. I wish I could have gotten a picture of it, the presentation was beautiful, but it was quickly devoured once we got it. Everything comes out piping hot and they have plenty of snack, dinner, and drink options in the grocery store surrounding the restaurant. Prices are very affordable and the establishment is very clean, this place is truly a hidden gem. The staff are incredibly sweet as well, they are all very welcoming

    FuruSato Bento on Harden Street in Columbia is a great place to go for delicious Japanese food that is ready to go when you are. The staff here is very friendly and accommodating to make sure that you have everything that you need. Good experience every time I have been here.

    Just like a small convenience store in Japan. Good selection of snacks and bentos. Will be back soon with the family.

    Camon Japanese Restaurant - Clear broth soup

    The restaurant is located along the side of a major street, so we parked about a block away and…read morewalked over, which was not an issue for us at all. From the moment we stepped inside, the experience completely shifted. The interior is truly spectacular--quiet, intimate, and thoughtfully designed. The space is petite yet incredibly intentional, and it immediately evokes the feeling of being transported to Japan. While I've never personally been to Japan, this restaurant genuinely took me out of a Western setting and placed me into what felt like a Japanese dining experience. Each table is sectioned off with dividers, which adds a layer of privacy while still maintaining an open, welcoming atmosphere that reminds you that you're still in the United States. It's a perfect balance between intimacy and accessibility, and it contributes greatly to the overall ambiance. I ordered the karaage meal, which came with a cabbage salad and rice. At first, I was concerned it might not be enough food, but it ended up hitting the spot in ways I didn't expect. While I could have eaten more, I was genuinely satisfied and comfortable by the end of the meal, which speaks volumes about the quality and balance of the dish. When placing my order, I also requested soup and mentioned to our server that I had been coughing earlier. Even though I wasn't actively coughing in the restaurant, she went out of her way to bring me hot tea to help soothe my throat. That level of care and attentiveness went well beyond expectations. She was incredibly polite, well-mannered, and made sure we felt genuinely taken care of throughout our visit. The value here is outstanding--not just for the food, but for the service, atmosphere, and overall experience. Everything comes together seamlessly, and it truly feels like a home run. There was no long wait to be seated; we walked in, told them how many people were in our party, and were seated promptly. For dessert, I ordered the matcha cheesecake. I went in with certain expectations based on what I was used to, and while it leaned more toward a New York-style cheesecake flavored with matcha rather than a traditional Japanese-style cheesecake, it was still very enjoyable and well-executed. Overall, everything--from the value and location to the food, service, and atmosphere--was excellent. I would absolutely recommend this place and plan to return the next time I'm back in town. I'm looking forward to trying more items on the menu and bringing more friends along with me. A sincere thank you to the young lady who went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful experience.

    I went a few days ago, and the sushi is just not the same. The prices of their maki have gone up…read moreand the quantity feels smaller compared to how it was a year ago. They no longer have sashimi and nigiri combos, so you kinda need to order à la carte. Inakaya is the #1 spot for sushi in the city hands down.

    I have mixed feelings…read more I ordered a ramen soup with pork. It tasted 'ok'. Not the worst I've had, not the best. I was happy to try it though. What I didn't really like was their policy of charging money for tap water. You don't expect this in America. I went to their soda machine to get some water, thinking there would be some cheap $0.01 plastic cups, and that's when I saw a sign saying you have to pay for water. NOT what I expected after ordering and paying for a ramen soup. I asked if there was any way to get a free cup of water, thinking maybe they kept the cups behind the counter, and they said no, you have to buy a cup for the tap water. In my mind, if you have to nickle and dime us $0.50 for tap water, you're doing things wrong as a business. Charge what you have to so people don't have to ask about paying money for tap water and you don't have to put up stupid signs saying you have to pay for water. I mean, come on. That looks SO PETTY and CHEAP! This place was so low life, they even had signs saying don't sit down until you order something taped on the walls all around the restaurant. That really made it look cheap. Where am I, China? Pakistan? Didn't feel like Japan... and certainly didn't feel like America. I didn't try to use the restroom. I don't know if they charge a fee for that... or the toilet paper... I think we as a society need to strongly push back against this type of 'fee' trend in restaurants. Yea, it's their business and they can run it the way they want, but I can also give a poor review and not come back. Your choice. I would of tipped the worker $3-4 based on service. Instead I was charged $0.50 and won't come back.

    We received so many noodles, it was amazing! I wish I had a little bit more stock with my Ramen,…read morebut to have more noodles was nice. Food came out really quickly and everything tasted amazing. It was a super packed, they did have two tables left open, so we're able to sit down and enjoy our food on the inside. We chose fountain drinks and the person that took our order. Also, I took our plates away. They were super nice and patient.
