I stumbled across this spot when trying to find a Japanese restaurant in the area. Although the…read morerestaurant was small, it gave a cozy vibe that I enjoyed. I took my friend here to try their katsu and I was not disappointed. I decided to get their Ton Katsu Teishoku Set so I could try everything they had. This meal took me back to my trip to Japan. I like how they gave you sesame seeds to grind for your sauce. The pork katsu was crispy and juicy. I also thought the rice was perfectly cooked. When I came here, the server accidentally spilled some of the soup on me and was very apologetic. They offered me complimentary soup to make up for the accdient. Overall, I would definitely come back to try their other items like the curry!

Sometimes vegan broths are lackluster, but this was also warming, slightly salty, and tasty. The chef came out of the kitchen to check with me.

I haven't had Indonesian food since Taste of Bali went under (10 years ago? 15?) and was looking…read moreforward to trying one of Fukuryu's Bali Boxes. I was in the neighborhood today and decided to pick one up for late lunch/early dinner. Overall, it was okay. Expensive for the relatively small amount of food in my opinion, especially the beef rendang, but I realize beef is costly for restaurants lately. The rendang was tender, but not as flavorful as I was expecting (more salt might have helped). The coconut kale was a bit strange - I'm going to say that's mostly because I'm not a fan of kale, period. The vermicelli side was a nice addition, and the rice was great. I liked the mustofa potatoes, although they weren't "crispy" as described. The reheating instructions said to take out the little cup of potatoes first, but when cold they would have come out in a single clump, so I popped them in the microwave by themselves afterward for 15 seconds and that did the trick. Other issues: "consume by" date was yesterday. I don't worry too much about that kind of thing, but if you do, you might want to check your order before you leave the premises. Also, the container was too big to rotate in my small microwave. It worked out okay anyway. I tasted the sambal I got - nice heat, but again, not as much flavor as I was looking for. I'm sure I'll use it up elsewhere. Got a couple other things for lunch tomorrow, I'll update after I've tried them (pork bun, and cucumber salad). Bottom line: probably not your best choice for Indonesian food, if you're already familiar with it. Fortunately there's a place that's supposed to be opening later this year in Clintonville. Update: bumped up my rating based on the strength of the pork bun and cucumber salad. The bun: tender and fluffy like it was supposed to be. The filling - pork belly falling apart, perfect, cucumber on top, and a few shreds of pickled veg that I would have been happy to get a bit more of. Don't know what the condiment on the bun was, but all in all it was a very nice package for my lunch. The cucumber salad was delicious. Chili crisp made in house over chopped cucumber - lovely contrast. The chili crisp provides a nice little bite, not "hot" (YMMV, I like hot foods) but really tasty.

Horrible! Ordered DoorDash and was really disappointed. Compared to many of the other ramen places,…read morethis ramen was subpar in so many ways. First portions are super small. I ordered a crispy cucumber salad and not only was the cucumber not crispy, there was hardly anything in the container. The same was true of the ramen dish. For the money, this isn't a value. The noodles reminded me of grocery store ramen quality. The pork was cold. I didn't feel it was safe to eat. I'm not impressed. There are so many other great ramen places around Columbus. I felt ripped off. All of the reviews are from many, many months and years ago, so something must have changed.

Lots of food delivery business going on but light on sit down traffic. My guess their lunch business is huge. The counter staff was exemplary. Helped us through the menu and their screen ordering system. Knowledgeable too. And nice! When you make your ramen choice, you boil the water and mix it yourself. That's different. We had a bento box, sushi roll, Poké, and goyza. Little snafu with the delivery so they comped us a fruit salad before we had time to push the issue. Food is ok. Not great not bad. Acceptable all around. Which is good thing at the moderate prices. Since we live close we will return. They are opening their fourth location soon. Clearly they are well respected and doing a good job. Good luck!

We were there around noon on a Sunday so they were not very busy but that was okay with us. I had made a Resy reservation because they recommended it. The interior is decorated very well and the light is slightly dimmed for a nice ambiance! They have really nice, and solid, dinnerware and glassware. We started with the crab rangoon tarts, 3 in an order, and the edamame. The tart shells were so buttery and the filling was the usual luscious crab mix. The edamame comes with salt or spicy, we chose salt. There was enough for all 3 of us. The drinks we chose were the Gin & Tea and the Lychee Martini. Both were delicious and the foam on both were handshaken and so creamy. The Gin & Tea was a surprise winner and I highly recommend it. We ordered 5 rolls. The Naruto, Center, Fantastic, Tiger and Dancing Salmon. I love Naruto rolls without the rice and nori, instead wrapped in thinly sliced cucumber. This one was well made and stayed together when using my chopsticks. It allows the fish to shine! The Center Roll had spicy tuna and a topping of avocado, masago and spicy mayo. It's what you would expect and well done. The Tiger Roll has a mix inside and on top. Each bite was a little different and delicious. The Fantastic Roll was just that! It had a lobster salad inside and slightly scorched Japanese scallops on top. The smokiness of the scallop was surprising and delicate and complemented the sweeter lobster salad. The Dancing Salmon roll had eel inside and salmon outside. I'm not a huge eel fan but this roll I ate and enjoyed. I hadn't had good restaurant sushi since NYC and this was up there with it. The quality of the fish, the server, the host and the overall atmosphere will bring go me back!!
