A lot of regulars were there interacting with the waitstaff. Always a good sign. We had the tofu buns for appetizers and they were just perfect in terms of the overall cook. We both had the char siu ramen which was fantastic. Came super hot and steaming. Breath was an amazing and the meat was tender, not fatty and plentiful.

The broth was rich and flavorful with just the right amount of heat, and you could tell the ingredients were fresh. There was a good amount of veggies mixed throughout, but the fried garlic chips were the surprise standout. They added this great little punch of flavor and texture that really elevated the entire bowl. Definitely a good ramen spot.

When I lived in Rochester, there weren't a whole lot of Asian supermarkets around. I ended up…read moreimporting stuff from Toronto. However, around the block was this market. I don't know whether it was called Asian Pacific Market at the time. I remember bringing my mom to check the place out when she was visiting. It was run by a couple. I ended up getting a case of ramen noodles because I have always loved eating them growing up. While checking out my old neighbourhood, I swung by to check this market out again. The Chinese restaurant that I never frequented is still in this plaza, across from this store. I believe that this market took over another store and tore down a wall. It's definitely larger than I remember it to be. I parked and walked inside. I loved seeing all ingredients to create your own banh mi. The snacks looked good, from shrimp flavour chips, to roasted seaweed. I was happy. The man cashing folks out asked me if I needed any help. I was browsing and reminiscing. I was good. I ended up getting a box of Choco Pie. Each pie is individually wrapped. Chocolate and banana work nicely together. I ended up bringing half of them back to Canada because my eyes were bigger than my stomach. I found Korean ramen and decided to give it a try. I got the mild flavour, which had a bit of a kick. I loved how chewy the noodles were. Full marks for them. You can only pay with a credit card if your total is at least $10. Thankfully, mine was. My credit card transaction worked nicely. The man was personable and helpful. We wished each other a great night as I happily headed to my car with my purchases. I like that there are more places in the city to get Asian ingredients and food. I'm happy that this market is still here. It was nice being back. (451)

The store owner gave my child an ice cream out of just sheer generosity and I really appreciated it and has earned my loyalty. They definitely have the essentials from all the Asian countries and the prices are very low, I was surprised. Visit this place first before you try other Asian marts.

If you're ever in Rochester, MN, and craving AYCE sushi, Kumo Sushi is a fantastic place to go!…read moreFrom the moment we walked in, our experience was nothing short of fantastic, thanks in large part to our amazing waitress. She was an absolute gem--friendly, attentive, and genuinely interested in getting to know our family dynamic. Before she left, she was saying, "pass this to mommy, this is grandma's, etc." SO cute! She offered great recommendations, and put some minds at ease for first time sushi goers, which made it all the more fun. I will note that we had some folks doing AYCE, and others ordered Ala carte, and this made no difference to our waitress, or Kumo! The Ala carte portion sizes were huge! The food? Hot, fresh, and delivered with lightning speed. Like seriously, I thought they had secret microphones under the table. We couldn't believe how quickly everything arrived--no waiting around, just one delicious dish after another. And let me tell you, we left so miserably full that we could barely waddle out the door, but it was worth every bite. If you're looking for excellent service, delicious food, and a great vibe, Kumo Sushi is great - go!

As far as I remember, Eagan location has more booths, which gives more traditional Japanese vibes. My chicken ramen was solid. Chicken was nicely grilled but the broth tased just like MSG. The noodles doesn't look premium (feels like packaged ramen) but overall I liked it. The pork meal was okay! The rice was oily and not much taste to it. It's also hard to eat out of the bowl without a spoon, which they don't provide. Japanese fries are a must-try; it's large not too salty and the sauces are just phenomenal. Service was good but a little slow. It was dinner time on Friday, so they were probably very busy. We pressed the button two times but they didn't come. They automatically charged 18% gratuity fees so you don't have to tip them if you don't want to. Boba bar is right at the entrance!! The brown sugar was phenomenal. I got it with milk instead of milk tea, which makes the texture less creamy but I really liked it. Dragon tea just wasn't it and it tastes nothing like dragon fruit.

If you're here for a date, I'd recommend coming a bit earlier so you can get one of the booths that they have with the curtains.
