    Crab rangoon
    Jackie S.

    We were on a road trip and looking for a place to eat when we stumbled upon this place. Immediately upon walking in, we were greeted in such a warm and friendly fashion. It felt like we were visiting a friend we hadn't seen in a while. The host was also our waitress. The service was so attentive and friendly. The ambiance was very clean and simple. We ordered appetizers, and they arrived on the table piping hot. I love when food that is supposed to be hot actually arrived as if it just came off the pan or out of the oven. It felt as if it was made fresh for us in that moment. The sushi arrived later and tasted so light and fresh. I wish I lived closer because I would definitely be a regular there. Another thing to note - we arrived around 2/230 pm. There was no wait, but as we were waiting for our meal, there were at least three groups of regulars that were also there for a late lunch. Our waitress knew their orders and maintained a friendly/positive/warm attitude for all of the patrons.

    Kurama is a hidden gem and such a lucky find! We had a fantastic sushi experience here - the fish is fresh and tasty, miso soup generous, service friendly and flawless, and vibes relaxed and chic. We started with miso soups and the Crab Rangoon appetizer and all was excellent. The miso soup was packed full of tofu and seaweed and had a great flavor. The Rangoons were very generously packed full of cheese and crab and so lovely! Then we moved onto our sushi rolls. I got the Kurama Roll which had snow crab, cream cheese, avocado inside and masago outside and the roll is deep fried - guess I was in the mood for crab and cream cheese haha! It was absolutely fabulous! My hubby had the Ginza Roll which had spicy tuna and mango inside with salmon and avocado outside - delicious and everything was so fresh! Our server was positively delightful!! So friendly and all smiles and laughs - she just lit up the restaurant! Inside is a very relaxing ambiance and chic too - they have tables and booths and also bar seating. Prices are very decent for the quality and area. Location is excellent - just off the main downtown area in adorable Keene. We walked here from our hotel so I'm not sure about the parking.

    Bottom right is the Crazy tuna roll, so fresh and delicious

    The service was great. Food was excellent and super fresh. 3 days later we're still thinking about it, craving more. Whenever we're in Keene again this is our go to. We are foodies and love trying new places. If you're not sure what to eat I recommend trying this restaurant you won't regret it.

    Decent sushi place in Keene NH. Place is very simple and plain. The sushi was fresh and tasty. The rolls I ordered were very simple. I've ordered them at other places and they just were prepped a little differently but the taste was there so.

    I have been twice and it was great both times. The sushi is fresh and SO good, good size portions with great prices. The owner is so kind and attentive, I have had great conversations with her both times. Very good service and atmosphere, I will be back more times than anyone can count! If you are in Keene this is one of the must stop in spots!

    Lovely! Friendliest staff ever. So quick and caring. Miso soup was delicious and hit the spot. Had an eel avocado roll and a tuna roll. Both yum. Looking forward to coming back to try more!

I've coming here for a few years already and finally decided to officially review it. Whole belly clams are plump and juicy and the fish tacos are delicious. Plus you get two tacos per order. What a deal! I love the contrast between the cold crunchy cabbage/cilantro and hot crispy fish. The belly platter comes with a small side of coleslaw and fries but you can substitute the fries for the onion rings for only $.50 more. It's worth it! Their haystack style onion rings are super skinny and tasty. Portions are generous too! Lobster rolls are great with nice large lump and claw meat. However, I would recommend to go when the lobsters are in season between June and December so the meat is sweeter. Outdoor seatings are plentiful but in the winter, you can sit inside the river valley co*op market next door. Service is friendly, quick, and simple. One window for ordering and one to pick up. I always come here once or twice a year when I visit my Northampton friend. Highly recommend this place for comfort and casual dining!

    If you told me I'd find some of the best seafood of my life in landlocked Southern Vermont, I…read moreprobably wouldn't have believed you--but Anchor Seafood House & Grille is the real deal. This place has been a Wilmington staple since 1997, and you can tell they've spent the last nearly 30 years perfecting the craft. The atmosphere is incredible. While the original 1850s building was lost to a fire in 2010, the current space is a beautiful, faithful replica that feels historic and cozy. It's the perfect spot for a post-ski dinner or a summer night out. Here's the breakdown of what you need to order: The Chowder: This is proper New England clam chowder. It's thick, rich, and loaded with clams--not just a bowl of potatoes and heavy cream. It's the ultimate comfort food. Steamers: You have to start with the steamers. They are clean, sweet, and served the traditional way with a side of broth and drawn butter. It's a messy, delicious classic that they do perfectly here. Whole Belly Clams: These are the gold standard. They're lightly breaded, perfectly fried, and have that sweet, briny pop you usually only find at a roadside shack on the Maine coast. If you're a fan of "the bellies," don't skip these. The Lobster: I went for the steamed lobster, and it was impeccable. Succulent chunks of fresh meat and just the right amount of butter. It tasted like it was caught that morning. It's rare to find a spot that balances a "fancy night out" feel with such unpretentious, high-quality food. Whether you're a local or just passing through for the foliage, make sure you stop here.

    When we got to the restaurant and we were asked if we had a reservation, I was a little worried…read morethat there wouldn't be a table because I didn't think of making a reservation. It was off-season in the area so many places haven't been busy. Luckily they asked if we were okay with the bar. Most definitely okay with the bar! We actually got pretty good attention when sitting at the bar. I ordered the Broiled Seafood Sampler because I like seafood and anytime I can get a variety in a dish, I'll go for that. The sampler consisted of haddock, salmon, scallops, and shrimp. The dish contained plenty of the fish and only two pieces each of the scallops and shrimp. The dish was not what I was expecting because of the crumb topping and creamy sauce. It was fine. We definitely got a good portion and the linguine with garlic and oil was fantastic! It was definitely garlicky, just the way I like it.

It's not authentic Japanese, it's an interpretation of Japanese by Chinese workers and Cooks. Also, Chinese service isn't great and the waiter here isn't attentive and a bit too casual for my taste. The food itself is just acceptable, and for the price not great. The atmosphere also still is pretty weak, and the restaurant is small. It's sort of almost like a hole on the wall. On the West Coast, I've eaten at over 30 authentic Japanese restaurants, and for those of you who aren't Japanese restaurant or sushi aficionados... This food is probably fine. If you know we're good, Japanese food is, don't come here and frankly you may need to drive to Boston to get it.
