    Curry sando
    Danielle J.

    If this pop up comes anywhere near you, it's worth it! I ordered three sandwiches including curry, tamago (egg salad) and strawberry. All were delicious. I still think about that egg salad one! As soon as it was planning to be near me I preordered as soon as ordering opened so I could pick what I wanted before they got low or sold out. They will sell out so be watching and order quickly! Look them up and order a sando!

    Izumi sandwiches are beautiful!! These paired with the adorable red food truck that they come from just make me happy! I ordered these a while ago and forgot to post a review but I have been thinking about them ever since. On top of how they look they taste awesome and the onigiri that Izumi sells as well pairs nicely with them! The all over care and kindness packed into these sandwiches are overwhelming and the owner of the shop is so sweet! I have ordered from Izumi multiple times and will continue doing so!

    Tried the veg pop up at Balkan Treat Box and was so happy I did. Had tried some of his yakitori at the Red Lantern festival and it was really good so when I saw this pop up I immediately ordered five sandos. The bread was perfect and all of the fillings were tasty and just the right proportion. I've had a good share of sandos from Japan to Houston and these were honestly some of the tastiest I've had. Nothing was over the top and it was a perfect balance in the Japanese way.

    Cute!

    Highly recommend preordering! This cute, little, firetruck-red Kei car is at Francis Park next to the beer garden every Monday. I discovered them by googling "umeboshi onigiri near me." Umeboshi is picked plum, a really unique Japanese filling. My first time visiting, they sold out just when I walked up, so I tried the other types of onigiri on offer instead. Those were good, but didn't quite satisfy my craving. They also sell fruit sandos and other Japanese snacky foods. The guy running it is nice, and let me know I can pre-order on their website starting Friday at 5pm, which I did this week and got as much as I wanted! I don't know if 5 bucks a pop is a lot for "konbini" (convenience store) snacks, but the alternative is sourcing my own umeboshi and molding my own rice balls... I plan on becoming a regular customer. I know my mom got excited about umeboshi, too, so I'll be ordering for her soon, too.

    Sado is hands down my absolute favorite sushi spot in STL!!!! I've always been a fan of sushi, but…read moreafter a trip to Japan, I realized I had never truly experienced quality sushi. One of my favorite places was a small standing sushi restaurant in Tokyo that always had a line out the door. I ended up going about three times during my short stay because I was genuinely afraid I'd never experience sushi that good again. Then I moved here and discovered Sado. It had always been on my list to try, and every single time we go, I'm completely blown away by the experience. Their sushi rolls are good, but the nigiri and sashimi are where they really shine. The fish practically melts in your mouth, and the way they balance the flavors is just chef's kiss. I could honestly cry over how good it is. My boyfriend and I try to come here every chance we get, and at this point, we don't want sushi anywhere else. Sado has completely ruined us for other sushi spots. If it's your first time, my recommendations are: Isaan Hamachi Sake Toro Zuke Sake Madai Garlic Pepper Kanpachi And definitely finish with the Sado Sundae! You will not be disappointed.

We…read moredid the nine course omakase and I would highly recommend it if you enjoy sushi and intimate dining experiences. Some of the bites are definitely an acquired taste (this meal was my first exposure to eating liver and sea urchin - both very bold and unique flavors) but getting to try new foods was something I really liked about this meal. The restaurant is beautiful, warm, and bright. You get to sit right up at the counter with just 5 other people when you do the nine-course dinner. Each course is prepared in front of you so it's neat to be able to see the chefs prepare the next course while you're eating. When you book the reservation, you get the choice to pick between tempura and yakizakana for one of the courses, and while the tempura was good (which I ordered), the yakizakana was excellent (which my husband ordered). They do a great job explaining what everything is that you're eating, how to eat it, and which order to eat it in. And even though it's all small bites, we left dinner feeling full and satisfied. We will absolutely be back.

The waiter was warm and knowledgeable, telling us stories and background on the food and beverage we had. His father is the chef and his mom does all the flower arrangements at the restaurant. It's beautifully decorated and sophisticated. There were two of us and we went with the 4-course $100 Omakase, which had 2 options and we did one of each: Omakase Nigiri and Chirashi. The food here was delicious and I can't remember all the items I had, but it started with a Tsukidashi tasting followed by a soup. Between the two options, I would opt for Omakase Nigiri next time. The wine and sake pairing was terrific, which introduced us to so many new beverages. Dessert is a must, especially at $5. The matcha mousse was airy and fantastic. You can dine by reservation only, and it's easy to make reservations on Tock, but need to plan ahead. .|\---/| | @_@ | ..\_^_/..2026

The Chef was far more obnoxious than entertaining and it got even worse when he left our seating area and began cooking for a large group of 20 something's that were closer to his own age. I was expecting the classic Teppanyaki-style steakhouse with a humble but entertaining chef. What we got was an Asian kid being silly. I'm sure the casually dressed patrons loved the saki being squirted Tijuana style across the table into their mouths, that just wasn't what I was expecting by the decor and need for a reservation.

While i was debating a 2nd bite, i found a long hair. I stopped at 1 bite but really, for the best. The miso soup only tasted of salt and maybe Campbell's? Very mass produced, salty. I did take 2 "bites" of that. The hibachi looked good cooking but the fried rice was so oily. The vegetables very bland - maybe my tastebuds were dulled by the miso. The scallops were decent. The shrimp were fine. The filet was ok but I'm not really sure it was filet and not sirloin. I passed on the yum sauce- i don't find it yummy anywhere. I got ginger sauce which was decent. The Teriyaki was briwn syrup - so sugary sweet with little other taste. I took leftovers, mostly rice and steak, but just shared the steak with my dog and ditched the leftover greasy rice. Overall, just disappointing. My dining companions were nonplussed as well.

The chefs are always hard at work in the kitchen and you can tell everything is made with love. I had never had any issues here with the food nor the staff. However, I had a different experience in April. My friend made a reservation for his birthday today. It was the groups' first time coming and they were all very excited. We called multiple times to make sure a group of 12 was okay. We are all aware that not every restaurant is suitable for such a big group, but were told it was not a problem. As soon as we sat down, we could tell one of the servers was very annoyed at the group. From the start, he would answer with an attitude, harshly put the plates on the table, and was outright disrespectful when we asked about a friend's plate that never arrived. This person ended up leaving and going to eat somewhere else. I was a server before and understand that big groups can be frustrating. Nevertheless, there is no excuse to treat a table so rudely when they have been nothing but nice and understanding. The food was great, but we were all extremely dissapointed, specially me since I've been here numerous times with no problem. I had never seen this server before, so I'm not sure if it was an off day for him or what. Most people said they would not come back, which made me very sad since it's good food. Thankfully, the female servers were all very nice and accomodating after the entire situation. I highly recommend Sushi Koi for their rolls. However, do not come in big groups.
