I've been coming to Haruki East for at least 15 years, which is probably the strongest endorsement…read moreI can give any restaurant. In a state with no shortage of sushi options, this has remained my go-to spot year after year. At this point, I think I've tried either everything on the menu or come pretty close to it. That's what happens when you keep returning to the same place for over a decade. The reason I keep coming back is simple: consistency. The fish is always fresh, the sushi is well prepared, and the food is reliably good. If I order something cooked, it arrives hot and exactly as expected. There are restaurants where you're rolling the dice every visit. Haruki East has never felt like one of them. The restaurant itself is clean, comfortable, and easy to get to. The location is convenient, and the prices are very reasonable considering the quality of the food. That's become increasingly rare these days. The only reason I'm stopping at four stars instead of five is the service. While I've never had a genuinely bad experience here, the last few visits have been noticeably slower than I remember. Service has also felt a bit inattentive at times, and these weren't during packed dinner rushes or busy weekend nights. Nothing terrible, just enough that I found myself waiting longer than expected for drinks, check-ins, or the bill. That said, the food continues to be excellent, and that's ultimately why I keep coming back. After 15 years, Haruki East has earned a level of trust that few restaurants achieve. When I'm craving sushi, this is still the place I think of first. The occasional service hiccup hasn't been enough to change that. If you're looking for fresh fish, a broad menu, reasonable prices, and a restaurant with a long track record of getting the important things right, Haruki East remains one of the best choices in Rhode Island.

We got a competition people! Another AYCE sushi spot in RI? I'm a coming! Came here for lunch on…read moreSaturday to see how they stacked up to a very popular spot that gets pretty jammed packed on the weekends. Located where Nicobella's used to be, there is only street parking - we found a spot across the restaurant with metered parking. The restaurant is pretty spacious, plenty of tables and you get a view of the sushi chefs from any seat. We were greeted and seated very quickly. It does seem like the service is still working out the kinks - our server explained to us how to order, off a tablet - which I prefer so much more but we had to ask for drinks instead of being asked if we wanted anything additional to water. We couldn't find the sashimi and asked where it was - they only offer sashimi for dinner so make note. They will allow you to do the dinner option for lunch - just pay accordingly, The special rolls at an extra $1.50 per roll as well. The varied options were nice - several kitchen apps and even a ramen option! We liked the food but wasn't wowed by anything. I did like that the sushi rolls weren't huge and filled with unnecessary layers of rice. So the portion sizes were on point. My favorite was the Spicy Crispy Roll (additional $1.50). We would like to come back and try other options on the menu. It's a bit pricier than I expected $115 after tax and tip but if you're big on sashimi and sushi rolls, it's def worth it.

I was skeptical because the menu was huge, but happy to say the sushi were wonderful. We got the Kayla roll, softshell crab roll, beef laab, and papaya salad. They gave us an extra Kayla because they made an extra, which was so nice. Rolls here were so good and the filling were generous. The chef behind the counter know what they're doing. The beef laab was pretty good, as well as the papaya. I didn't get to try any raw fish roll because my friend don't eat raw fish, but I will definitely try next time. I'm just so impressed at the different cuisines available here, yet they did all of them justice. We ordered for takeout but they do have a couple tables there for you to eat your takeout if you want to stay in restaurant.

Since my family was visiting from out of town and hadn't had Uncle Sushi in over 10 years, this visit felt extra special.

Before this North Providence…read morelocation even existed, I used to be a regular at their old Mineral Spring Ave location back when it was open. Tuesday and Thursday nights, like clockwork. So I've been eating their food for a long time at this point, and one thing I can say is they've always been consistent. The food comes out hot, fresh, and reliably good every time. They also have a huge menu, which I appreciate because not everyone wants the same thing when you go out to eat. You can get sushi, classic Asian dishes, noodles, rice plates, appetizers, pretty much whatever mood you're in. If you like sushi especially, their sushi menu is honestly pretty strong. The restaurant itself has a modern look without feeling cold or overly trendy. Nice atmosphere overall, and there's plenty of parking in the back which makes life easier, especially on busy nights. Now for the couple things that keep it from being 5 stars for me. First, the service robot. I know some people probably think it's cute or futuristic or whatever, but personally I'm not a fan. It actually turned me off enough that I stopped going for a short period. I go out to dinner to interact with people, not Wall-E carrying my fried rice across the dining room. That said, I've been back multiple times since and it feels like they're using it less now, or at least less aggressively, which I appreciate. The other thing is the noise level. The dining room can get loud. Usually that doesn't bother me much, but if you're trying to have an actual conversation across the table sometimes you find yourself repeating things. Still, none of that has stopped me from going back. It's close to home for me in Lincoln, the food is consistently good, and they rarely miss the mark. That kind of consistency is underrated these days.
