    The hibachi chicken and crab Rangoon was very good. I would highly recommend this place. Don't let the look of the truck fool you!!

    We felt so lucky to find this gem in Beatrice. The ingredients were fresh and sushi was delicious! Would absolutely come back.

Seating is limited, but it feels cozy and intimate. The staff was outstanding from the greeter to the servers, friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The menu has a great variety, from ramen and teriyaki boxes to rice dishes and sushi. We started with the soft shell crab appetizer, which was incredibly fresh with a light, perfectly crisp tempura batter. For our main course, we went with a selection of sushi, and it was phenomenal. The fish was extremely fresh, served at the perfect temperature, and every flavor paired beautifully. One thing I really appreciated is they don't smother their sushi in sauces, they let the freshness and quality of the fish speak for itself, the way it should. Quite possibly the best sushi in town!!

    Staff was not knowledgeable of the menu or side sauces. Staff was quick to take order and leave…read moretable. I asked for a specific bottle of sake and she said they didn't have it. I opened the menu and what do you know. It's RIGHT THERE on the menu. I then asked for ponzu, a basic staple at sushi restaurants, she said no we don't have it. So we asked again and what do you know. THEY DO HAVE IT. We had to flag down other servers to add items to our order. We got a blank state from all staff, zero personal attention or acknowledgement. ZERO SMILES or basic human decency for their patrons. Sushi was okay. If you actually like sushi and eat it a lot this place won't impress you. Huge menu of the same 3 fish offered in different combinations. Some of which didn't taste fresh. The Jalapeño appetizer was raw jalapeño and unmelted cream cheese that was served cold when marked it as being "deep fried". Horrific service will keep me from giving this business my money in the future.

    What an incredible hidden gem of a restaurant! This was my first time going to try this restaurant,…read morerecommended by a friend, and I was blown away. The inside of the restaurant is on the smaller side, but definitely worth it. They had a large variety of sushi, curries, and ramen that you could try on the menu. I tried the gluten free ramen, which I've never been able to get before, and it truly was the best bite I've had in awhile. The broth had so much umami in it, and everything was cooked to perfection. My boyfriend tried the chicken katsu and reminded him of the ones he had back in Japan. Everyone working there is super kind. We accidentally left a wallet there, and they called us and held onto it until we could come back. Highly recommend this little spot! It's definitely worth the drive!

    Tucked on a corner with entrance facing the parking lot…read more This place is newly opened- barely two months old. Small little restaurant that mirrors a simple Japanese restaurant. The menu for me is a little confusing. It basically is a combination restaurant. There was a variety of Japanese, Chinese and even Korean elements to it. There is a variety of seating available- at the bar, booths, round tables, rectangular tables for bigger groups and small tables for a party of two. We were the only people there on Sunday. I needed comfort food. We ordered spring rolls for appetisers. Hubby ordered tempura and i ordered tartan noodles. Spring rolls were nice and crispy- tasted like they were bought frozen and fried in the restaurant. The insides were a little mushy. They were laid on a bed of cabbage- the shreds on the side look a little black. They should probably have been more careful with picking of the lettuce shreds. Japanese tantan ramen is usually in spicy broth. Mine came more like a Chinese style dried noodles. I'm not complaining - felt like noodles my mom used to make. It helped with homesickness. I do want to point out one point though- the chicken in the noodles is probably from the chicken broth that was made. And its basically gotten all the flavour into the soup. The accompanying chicken soup with my tantan noodles were actually good. But would be better if the oil was removed before serving. The layer of oil on the soup was a little off-putting but the flavour of the underlying soup was good. Tempura itself ( the vegetables) were delicious. The shrimp was a little over done but overall tasty. Honestly, it would probably do them good to reduce the menu. Too much stuff too confusing. I would come back for stuff that reminds me of home though. I'm not trying to be critical. This place has potential. I have to add our server's service was really good. Attentive and polite! Good job! Good luck!

    First time having Hiro 88 in Lincoln! We came here for Mother's Day because I knew I wanted sushi…read morefor the special occasion. As soon as we walked in I noticed how busy they were. Not sure if it's always this busy, but it was also a beautiful day. Most folks were seated outside and inside. Shout out to the staff for taking care of us! Alicia was our server and she did amazing. Now to the food -- we ordered the highway 80 and hiro 88 rolls. Along with the avocado cucumber roll for our toddler , salmon, yellow tail and mackerel sashimi. Everything was delicious! The portions are huge. I feel like you get your money's worth here. It was my first time eating here and it won't be my last!

    We had a family dinner for 7 people here Monday evening. We were seated at a round table inside…read moreright by the door going out to the patio. EVERY time someone went in or out of that door, the people at our table were hit with a reflection from the sun outside. It was like sitting in front of a strobe light. When we suggested that they prop the door open, we were told that wasn't possible. So we explained what was happening and were told there was nothing that could be done. So if you get this table for an evening meal, immediately ask force seating. We could not wait to leave! We ordered meals and sushi. Several people at the table do not use chopsticks. Food arrived and there were only 4 forks in the entire restaurant. Food got cold waiting for forks - imagine having a restaurant without forks! Finally, besides being cold, the walnut shrimp, sesame chicken and peanut butter chicken all were very dry and didn't have much "sauce" on them. This isn't the first time we have eaten here and never had this type of service or food. But all in all, it was EXTREMELY disappointing and since things have changed we most likely won't be back.

    Seated immediately at a community table. Its a restaurant with two sections…read more One side for sushi and one side for grill. This is a teppanyaki style restaurant. They take your order and the chef comes to the grill with their sauces and raw ingredients and puts up a show for you. This style of reataurant is common in asia. Its not exactly the same as in Asia as most teppanyaki reataurants would have steamed egg. Vegetables, steak were all very well cooked ie. Just nice Hubby ordered his steak medium rare and it came out like that. The sushi i ordered was delicious. Spider roll crunchy and delicious. The salmon sushi i ordered perfectly fresh. Delicious. I have enjoyed myself thoroughly. Salad was a little plain and soup was just clear soup w some mushrooms and green onions. Star of the show was the chef. We had Bat. i have to say service we experienced today is fantastic. Each time a server walks past and sees your drink bordering on empty, they will ask if you want a refill. We had a wonderful time. We will be back!!!

    I recently dined at Sakura Japanese Restaurant in Lincoln, Nebraska, and it was a great experience…read moreoverall. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a stylish setup that makes it perfect for a relaxed dinner or a night out. The bar is especially impressive -- a killer selection and a great vibe if you're looking to enjoy a drink with your meal. We started with the edamame, which was fresh and perfectly prepared. For entrées, we had the Hamachi, Steak and Salmon -- both were absolutely delicious. The portions were generous, and everything was cooked beautifully with excellent flavor. Service was a bit on the slow side, but the quality of the food definitely made it worth the wait. Overall, Sakura delivers great food, a fantastic atmosphere, and an excellent bar experience. I'd happily go back again!

    We visited some time ago…read more And i finally remembered to post a review. They were so new back then their sign hadnt changed. We were seated immediately. And service was impeccable. She checked back on us periodically. Hubby ordered a beer and i ordered a hot tea Beer came pretty promptly and my tea took some time. We ordered tako yaki for appetisers, spicy dried ramen and beef hibachi That took some time to come as well. Ambiance is a little strange. They basically did not redecorate after the last tenant moved out. Pretty much eveything remained the same so it felt like a sports bar masquerading as a japanese restaurant. The takoyaki was not bad really. The tako yaki was delicious served in a pretty plate. The octopus in it was a little small and a little cool. But the batter of the takoyaki was delicious and crispy. My ramen was interesting. The noodles itself was speingy and flavoured well. The meat was over salty and hard. Beef hibachi according to my husband was only ok. He had to ask for sriraccha to eat it. Overall, it might just be teething problems. I'd like to come back again to try it. The service was fantastic. I wish them the best
