    Teriyaki Chicken
    Rikesha F.

    My coworkers and I ate here in between workshops. I thought it was going to be the area where they prepared the food in front of you but we sat in a different section to my understanding. The food was good, but I've had better with enough food left over for another meal. Here, it was enough to finish in one sitting. The pricing was fair. I would like to return for the hibachi section.

    This is my go to spot for hibachi. The sushi is always fresh and the dumplings are really good.

    Steak and Scallops
    Iseo Y.

    I was there for dinner yesterday and ordered Steak and Scallops with rice and mixed vegetables. The scallops and steaks are okay but it came out so salty due to the vegetables being so soupy, the rice is soaked. It is hard to eat it. Service is fine and ambience is okay.

    Trash left on table the whole time. I know, I'm picky but service isn't what it used to be.

    The food was awesome!!! The service was sad. Getting seated was confusing since we were asked for our phone# before we were even told the wait time. Please ask if I want to sit at the Hibachi table or the dining area. If you spill something on my table please clean it up. I had to ask for a napkin and then the dirty napkin was left there the whole meal. I'll just get take out from now on. The food was great!!!

    The hair in said Super Crunch Roll.

    Ordered $140 worth of food and the thing I ordered was a sushi roll. There were three pieces left when I noticed a long black hair sticking out of the end piece of the roll. I pulled it out and it was cut, meaning that it was strung through the roll, then cut up, and now in the bottom of my stomach. I immediately threw my guts up. I called Konomis to tell them about this horrendous issue and I was offered point credit to use to get a "free roll next time". There will be no next time. Anyways I'm disgusted, worst first meal of the new year.

    Konomi is a great Japanese steakhouse located in Trussville off of Chalkville Mountain Road. It gets packed but they take reservations for parties of 8 or more. We typically are going just for the food so we choose to eat in the dining area/sushi bar and not at the hibachi tables (I know there's another name for them but it's skipped my mind). Usually you don't have to wait and you get the same great food, just no show included (which can be a downer if you've been waiting all day to see a volcano or Japanese egg roll). Ok, I'm getting off track. The sushi is very tasty and reasonably priced compared to other sushi places in the area. The hibachi entrees are the same. Great prices, tons of food (enough for 3 meals when you break it down into the correct food portion per meal), and the service is always great. If you are going on a Friday or Saturday night, think about whether you want the show or just a meal where you can chat face to face on a date or with family. I suggest going early so you don't get stuck waiting a long time.

    I can't say enough good things about Konomi. I try to make it over at least once a week for lunch because the food is consistently great, and the staff are even better. I always look forward to seeing Savannah and Loura, as they're both just so kind and they do an amazing job. I was in Hawaii for two weeks, and while I was there I couldn't stop thinking about how I wished I was back home getting sushi here! Highly recommend! :)

She's an amazing bartender--super friendly, helpful with recommendations and kept the space spotless. She turned a 4-star meal into a 5-star experience. * Fish Quality: The sushi and fish quality were impressively fresh. * The Rolls & Ramen: Both rolls recommended by the Bianca were well above average and the ramen exceeded my expectations. * The Rice (Shari): A bit of a letdown. The rice was too mushy/wet and the portion of rice per piece was way too large. * Pork Bao: Not worth the mention (or a photo). Skip this one. Verdict: 5/5 stars. Mostly thanks to Bianca's top-tier hospitality. Solid Japanese spot in the heart of Downtown.

I have a hard time refusing any brussel sprout dish when dining out, and this one did not disappoint! The Brussels were perfectly crispy and had a perfect sweet & spicy flavor. The Kadoma Tuna is a circular, crispy rice cake, topped with spicy tuna and avocado. I love trying rice cake dishes whenever I see them. This one was more rice-heavy, but it's still packed with flavor. We then ordered the Beef Wrapped Asparagus, along with the Bangkok Sushi Roll and the Suteki Roll. My favorite was the Bangkok Roll, which was topped with matchstick potatoes. The Suteki Roll was super unique, filled with sliced apple, cream cheese, avocado, and salmon.

There was clearly an overstaffing of servers. There were about 6 or 7 servers for about 4 takes that were in there. Meanwhile the sushi makers were trying their hardest to push out the rolls. And the single bartender was overwhelmed. The sushi was pricey (18-20$ for 6-8 pieces) and EXTREMELY underwhelming. Didn't seem like high quality fish or anything special. Could get similar quality for much cheaper elsewhere. My favorite sushi place that is about the same price point is Bamboo on 2nd. I've been going there for years and never had a bad experience. They have much higher quality sushi, better service, and food in general. (No I'm not affiliated with them)
