Important to note that the kitchen closes 45 minutes before the closing time listed online…read more We came in a group of 5 and all of us found the food to be fine. I really enjoyed the half soft-boiled egg in the shio ramen as well as the enormous quantity of noodles, but there wasn't a ton of flavor in the dish. The chicken hibachi had great sauce and decent noodles, but the meat was dry and felt overcooked. The caterpillar roll surprised me since it was tuna-based, rather than the eel that is typical for that name. None of the dishes stood out as exceptional. The service was quite interesting. I did appreciate the water service - the server came around early on yo offer refills. Then about midway through the meal, she asked if we wanted leftovers boxed up. I wasn't too hungry so I was fine with take home the leftovers, although the timing felt a bit early to me. I couldn't tell if that was because it was just after 8 PM and they were trying to close up soon (advertised closing time of 8:30 PM), but there were still plenty of other tables with diners. The bill came with a mandatory 18% tip for our group of 5.

"Right before my very eyes Baby what a big surprise"…read more(Chicago) When was the last time, you were enjoying a gorgeous looking dish of Vegetable Tempura and realized OMG, I just chomped down on something crazy spicy? Well, that's what happens when you bite into an unadvertised half of a jalapeno pepper when the menu promises sweet potato, onion, and broccoli. Now look, as the late Sly Stone sang, "Different strokes for different folks", meaning that we all have different tolerances for spiciness. I was OK with that blazing piece of green, that for all purposes looked like a slice of Bell Pepper, but it set off fire alarms for my wife, who flat out couldn't eat it. Putting all that aside, we had a very enjoyable dinner. We got a lucky parking spot in a small lot right across the street and were seated without a reservation, which was also kind of lucky because Kisara doesn't have a lot of seating - I counted 8 tables (some for 4 and a few for 2) and nine seats at the bar. Our dinner ran a shade under $42 with tax for a 12-ounce bottle of Sapporo beer, the aforementioned Vegetable Tempura appetizer ($10), an Octopus Sushi appetizer (three pieces for $5.75, and two nice salads - an Avocado Salad ($7.25) and Teriyaki Chicken ($11.50). As you can see, Kisara's pricing is pretty good. The Tempura (save for the unexpected and unadvertised jalapeno halves) was very good - a generous serving of hot, crispy and oil free sweet potato planks, broccoli florets, and onion rings. My octopus sushi was pretty good. The pieces were large and presented beautifully. Maybe a minor quibble would be the chewiness factor of the octopus. The salads were very pretty - an attractive presentation of mixed greens, lettuce, cucumbers, shredded carrots, and a ginger dressing. My wife's salad had seven avocado slices and mine had ten chunks of teriyaki sauce glazed chicken chunks. Maybe another minor quibble would be the chewiness of the chicken, they were definitely overcooked. Positives Their menu is fantastic. Service was fine and included a few check-backs which are always appreciated Negatives There is no public WIFI - when I saw a Kisara network pop up, I asked for the password and was told "that's only for the manager". They don't really have a website, but you can somewhat see one via an ordering platform off their Facebook page. Conclusion For walking in off the street without a reservation, overall, we had a very nice dinner.

Service is where this place falls off the rails. We sat at the sushi bar so at least the chefs were busy and very friendly. But the other wait staff was absolutely useless. Sitting down at 1:00pm when the place was not busy, it took multiple escalations from what I can assume was the manager to get us a waiter to come over. add another 10 minute wait for them to come back and then actually take an order a lunch that could have been banged out in 20 minutes we spent almost an hour with most of the time waiting. The ambiance was fine. considering it is located in the mall, you could not really tell. as mentioned it wasn't busy at the time so can't comment to how bad noise levels could get, but maybe due to service and some of the other comments, that's why this place isn't busy?

Decided to burn the midnight oil tonight and treated myself to a delivery order from Sakura Ludlow…read more My Tom Yum Soup hit all the right notes -- warm, comforting, and deeply satisfying. The Jalapeño Poppers were a pleasant surprise; I expected an intense heat but was met instead with a refreshing, well-balanced flavor. My only regret was not ordering more. I genuinely love indulging in a great meal, especially during a long work session. I rounded out the evening with two orders of fried shumai, which I happily enjoyed as my dessert -- and they did not disappoint. I will absolutely be ordering from Sakura Ludlow again. Next time, I'd love to experience dining in at their location. If you're looking for a satisfying meal, give this place a try -- you won't be disappointed.

Absolutely one of the best places I've discovered in recent years.

Everything tastes great, and like I said, the quality is consistent. I don't think they've ever had an off night. I highly recommend the Kani salad, Hawaii bowl and angry dragon roll. Plus the taro bubble tea is CRAZY delicious.

It's a blessing and a curse that this restaurant is a whole four minutes from me…read more... While we've only been here twice, it's been absolutely delicious. The price for the all you can eat Japanese BBQ is certainly in my books worth it. Both times, we have left feeling so stuffed but so happy from the food. Within both times going, I think we've tried nearly everything on the menu. The yuzu pork belly, chicken fried rice, oyster mushrooms, and spicy miso chicken are some of our favorites. The only thing missing (I think) would be a nice cocktail to go with the food. Supposedly they are receiving their liquor license within the next few weeks so we will have to go back for that to try some drinks. The decor is pretty standard for a Japanese restaurant, though some of their neon signs are absolutely adorable. The food delivery is real cute, the food comes in this cool box delivered to your table.

I stumbled upon DARUMA today with my friend, and so happy I did!…read more Their menu is only AYCE, and you cook the meats at a grill on your table. This was a great way to spend quality time together. I liked the meat and sushi I had. The portions are small, but you can order unlimited amounts. We had beef brisket, chicken teriyaki, pork belly, sushi, gyoza, shrimp tempura. Ice cream was included, however low quality. The portion size for dessert was perfect after unlimited meats and sushi. I added on the thai tea which was totally worth it. They will remove the boba if you ask. Our server was nice but seemed distracted. Half way through the meal I realized we had never discussed food allergies so I continued to avoid the spices and sauce for the meats. Even sitting near the front door, the atmoshphere was very pleasant. Our server mentioned they will have their liquor license in a few weeks.
