    Beautiful interior nice food and friendly staff. I had a great lunch there. Not a lot of great options in the area.

    This is the little way you leave- dark and dirty.

    The smell as you walk in is strange. If you use the restroom, it gets worse as you walk towards the ladies room, which is just outside of the kitchen. It smells fishy and musty. The bathroom hits you with a blast of cinnamon from the basket of potpourri on the pretty sink. The floor is disgusting. It has gross black buildup of grime and nastiness in the grout joints and corners. The old broken heat elements are rusted and disjointed. I ordered an avocado roll and a specialty roll called The Maine Roll with spicy lobster, avocado, cucumber sticks, imitation crab and spicy mayo with the crunchies on top. It was massive! I had to eat it in three to four bites for each piece. All in all good food! Food was good, but atmosphere is where the dings come in- it's dirty. It's uncomfortable because it smells strange. If they did a deep clean that would help a lot!!

    This has been my favorite sushi place in Bangor that I have found so far. I go here often for the service, the ambiance, and the food. As a California girl, I've had all types of quality sushi from the cheap and sad sushi to bank-breaking omakase. Green Tea is at a good comfort level of good sushi at a medium price range. Not mind-blowing sushi like I've had at other places but still very good for the middle of Maine. I've come here to dine with 1 person but have also come to dine with 12 people. Green tea is very good at accommodating your party and taking early reservations for large parties. I always especially love the private rooms for small groups where you can close the door, and, whenever you need the waiter/waitress, you flip the light switch and the red lantern outside your door lights up alerting the staff that you request their services. The restaurant tries to stay true with all Japanese decor. I love the selection they have for their menu. There's something for everyone. Even a large drink menu. If you order any of the boat sushis, you'll get this beautiful presentation of your sushi on their large bamboo boats. Or, if you ordered enough sushi rolls, they might put it on a boat anyway! I've also never found a dessert I didn't like.

    Volcano Roll. So good!

    So far this has been the best sushi so far in Bangor. Service is a bit lacking. Could be a bit better. The ambiance is that of a Japanese restaurant and strives to take you to Japan. We will be back. From the outside it looks a bit strange.

    My family is new to the area and we happened upon this place and decided to give it a try. We were a little confused on where the entrance was but were greeted as soon as we topped the stairs. We asked to sit at one of the private tables (my most favorite part!) and enjoyed being able to have conversation without much interruption. The food came in a timely manner, was beautifully plated, and was absolutely delicious! We will be back!

    As a transplant from Southern California to Maine we were desperate to find a good sushi spot. This restaurant is beautiful inside and the sushi is top notch. Every piece of sushi, sashimi and roll I have tried has been delicious (try the mermaid roll!!). We like to order the bento boxes for a good mix of foods. My only wish would be that it would be so expensive to eat here!

    My sister and I went here to have some quality time last week and the food was great! We loved that they sat us in a booth that had a sliding door, as my sisters 8 month old daughter was sleeping and it made it more quiet and private for us! :) My only downside was I was looking to get the shrimp tempura, and like to dip my tempura in teriyaki sauce. However when I asked if I could get a small cup I was told it was $3 extra! I asked if there was anything that could be done as I wouldn't be needing the sauce that it came with, and she came back saying she spoke to her manager and that there was nothing that could be done. I think it's kind of ridiculous to charge $3 for a small cup of teriyaki, when your appitizer for Tempura was $7.

    Salmon special!
    Mia C.

    I really enjoyed the food here at Green Tea, the inside was beautiful, a lot bigger then I thought. The menu had lots of options, I ordered the Avocado boat and Salmon special. Both were amazing! Would definitely order that again! The food was fast and the waitress was very nice. Perfect sushi date night!

    My sushi plate. So good!

    My sister and our mother simply love going to Green Tea. Whenever they visit, this is usually where we end up! They have a huge menu and you won't be disappointed with their selections. The service was very nice. I like the private rooms on the right when you first walk on - though I've never been in one, haha!! That would be good for a small group or a family. My sister and I both ordered sushi rolls. Very tasty. We are fans of the milder kinds - like salmon and veggies. It is conveniently located near the mall. If you like alcoholic beverages, they have quite the selection for you (full bar). If you are shopping at the mall, or going to the movies, or simply in the area, check out Green Tea! It isn't fancy or pretentious, just a nice place to have a meal.

    Mini udon soup
    Kelly L.

    Just moved to the area temporarily so on my mission to find some Asian food, I came here. I ordered a mini udon soup that comes with a piece of fried shrimp. The noodles were chewy, soup was nice and warm. It had a slightly acidic taste, but overall pretty good. I also ordered pork katsu set. I comes with two pork katsu cutlets, iceberg lettuce (I wish it was shredded cabbage), a decent amount of tonkatsu sauce and a bowl of rice. All the employees were wearing masks and super nice. It's nice to be out of the big city haha.

    Alien fresh spring roll salad.

    I'm so bummed! I used to love this place - the ambience was matched by the food - I guess that was a few years ago. Went in tonight, Sunday about 6:30. The place was empty. Someone mentioned the unappetizing smell as you find which door to enter through. I stood at the hostess stand after the door chime sounded and looked at a menu to order takeout. No one came over so I went to "pickup" by the bar and ordered. The first thing I picked from the appetizer menu - the sweet staff person said "oh people don't order that often I can't find it..." and asked another for help. "Ah, we don't serve that anymore." Ok... I ordered miso soup (good), crab Rangoon (good) snd I got the weirdest fresh spring rolls I have ever had. I know in Maine one needs to adjust expectations. But if you look up recipe for fresh rolls, you'd come up with something fresh-roll-like. These were like a diner garden salad in a rice paper wrap. A clump of carrot, cucumber, and iceberg lettuce, plus really slimy white chickenish substance and a mushy spot of avocado. Aaaand cut into small sections so you can't pick any of it up! Truly strange. I got a weird feeling about the seaweed salad and bailed on it - I have a morning flight and am worried about food poisoning. :( not the experience you want after throwing down $30 for a light dinner.

    Fish is nice and fresh.
    David J.

    Service was quick and pleasant. Place is clean and elegant and they have small private rooms0 which is a nice touch. I only had one meal and the fish was fresh and tasty and well presented. Made me happy.

    Sashimi deluxe platter- yum!

    We came late at night after a very long road trip. Great food - sashimi and rolls. Great service. Priced fair. Highly recommend.

    Do not let the look of the outside of this place deter you from going in. It's in a mini strip…read moremall, but the food is awesome! Large portions, Sushi is freshly made, the Thai food is delicious with a touch of heat. The service is spot on. They offer take out as well as dine in. I'm going to have to come back next time I am in town

    What could improve? Everything. I saw it had great reviews and decided to go for my birthday…read moredinner. The server/hostess was very abrupt in manner and seemed almost annoyed with us for being there. Everything was sticky: the menus with crumpled pages, the tables, the bathroom floor. It had kind of a crummy cafeteria vibe with drop ceilings and crappy laminate tables and 80s middle school tile floors and stacking chairs. I'm normally all for a hidden strip mall gem but this was not it. My partner ordered a spicy roll combo and asked the server if they were spicy/crunchy and she said they all had the panko crunch in the mix. What he got had zero spicy and zero crunchy. The rolls were minuscule, sloppy with a tiny chunk of fish in the middle and nothing else. The yellowtail was super fishy and tough. He didn't even finish his meal. I ordered two special maki and they were both sloppily presented. The server never cleared a single plate from underwhelming appetizer through the meal. She came through regularly with her noisy Rubbermaid cart with peoples' meals on it, even if it was a single plate one-handed carry and the lower shelves of the cart were empty and could have housed dirty dishes. And the pièce de résistance was it was wildly overpriced - perhaps some of the most expensive sushi I have ever had and I have had grocery store sushi that was better. Then I came home and was in the bathroom for literal hours after my stomach started feeling dodgy after eating. 1/5 food 0/5 service -20/5 ambiance Just absolutely not it.

The nabeyaki looked like it had been made several days prior. The chicken which overwhelmed it was the texture of rubber; come to think of it, nearly everything in the soup was the same hopeless texture, absolutely inedible. Mushrooms were spit-out-awful and there were very few veggies. I knew better than to bother with the egg floating on top. The katzu chicken was clearly fried in ancient oil, echoing the complaint of an earlier reviewer, with a bitter nasty aftertaste. Noodles were absolutely tasteless. We asked for a container...to take the scraps home to our chickens. Because the server was efficient and pleasant, I decided not to ask for my money back. I would have been well within my rights to do so, without a peep, I'm guessing, from the kitchen. They know when they've screwed up and they did. All of which brings to mind Woody Allen's quote about life: such a large amount of misery and such small portions.
