The only issue I have with the order out is that they put the hot miso soup with the sushi in the same bag. I prefer my sushi cold and my soup hot. Not mixed in the same bag. The ramen pork is not the normal thin sliced pork that I and used to getting. Instead it is a thicker grilled piece which also tastes very good. Just different texture and taste. Overall very good and the best sushi I've had in Iowa so far.

We went to Hokkaido Ramen House Friday night thinking we were just grabbing a bowl of noodles. What…read morewe found was a really nice surprise -- and then we apparently forgot how to stop ordering food. The restaurant is very cool inside, spotless, and has a great atmosphere. They were moderately busy, but service was still very fast. Our server was sweet, funny, witty, kind and attentive. She really added to the experience. We started with the gyoza, which were fresh, hot and delicious. I ordered the Tom Yum Ramen, loaded with seafood and a ton of flavor. Kim had the Spicy Beef Ramen with the giant bone-in beef rib. That thing is a monster of a bowl and was packed with flavor. Kim tried the apple sake and liked it so much that we stopped afterward and bought a bottle. I had a Tsingtao beer and then decided I apparently hadn't ordered enough food, so I added the tuna sashimi. It was incredibly fresh and delicious, especially with the fresh ginger and greens. We definitely spent more than we intended, but mostly because we kept wanting to try more things. Hokkaido is only about half a mile from our house, which may turn out to be dangerous. Great food, fast service, fun atmosphere and one of those places that surprised us in the best way. We'll definitely be back.

The ambiance of the restaurant is super spacious and great service with not much wait time. The owners are really nice.

I have been to Fuji several times and I gotta admit the llast time I went to Fuji I wasn't blown away but this time I was! I was instantly excited when I saw the autumn leaves rolling was there because my wife and I had it a couple years ago and loved it. Spicy scallops and crunchy flakes topped with salmon, avacado and spicy mayo (pictured 3rd from the left) The California roll was one of the better I've had. The bites seem a little bigger even! (Pictured at the top) We also got the orange glaze roll. It was delicious - a California roll topped with crab, carmelized spicy mayo and eel sauce, then topped with masago. (Pictured far left) Then we had the Halloween roll (pictured 2nd from the left) I can't remember what was in thst but it was topped with salmon and spicy mayo. And last but not least we had the sushi sandwich, that's right the sushi sandwich! (Pictured far right) the sushi sandwich was awkward to eat but we decided to pick them up and eat them like sandwiches. They were generous with the spicy tuna, eel, crabmeat and avacado on the inside, with tobiko, eel sauce and spicy mayo on the outside. Also very delicious! I loved these rolls about the same and recommend you get them before they're out of season- we will definitely be back!

We ordered pineapple fried rice that was served in a plate that looked like pineapple, seafood ramen, the LA roll and a whole bunch of sashimi that was served in a sea turtle bowl on crushed ice. We will definitely be going again!

I have never experienced such rude and argumentative service. Instead of listening to the customer, she blamed me for her own mishearing. Unbelievable! Absolutely 1 star, and I am never coming back.
