    Korean Chicken Wings
    Amanda C.

    I feel like I've had some trouble finding really good Korean spots in Middle Tennessee, but boy did I find a good one! I heard about MoriMori because I saw a post on social media, and had wanted to check it out for a while now. We ordered the Korean chicken wings and bulgogi beef. The Korean wings were some of the best I've ever had. Truly. They were perfectly crispy, huge, and all of the sauce they put on top was incredible. They give you such a big portion as well! The bulgogi beef also was incredibly tasty and just the way I like it. What makes this dish different is that they put onions, carrots, and mushrooms in the mixture as well which really added flavor. The portions were so big we even had leftovers for the next day! The employees were also very nice and gracious, and the restaurant itself is very spacious and clean with plenty of parking! If you want good Korean food at an affordable price, definitely go here! We will definitely be back.

    Pork Gyoza - so good we forgot to get a photo!!!

    Mori mori is a good little spot. I visited on a Friday night around 7pm and the place was poppin! I enjoyed a strawberry boba tea and spicy shrimp udon noodles (weird mix, I know). My boyfriend and I also shared a hot gabby and hot knight. All you really need to know is to get the pork gyoza because they're amazing!! As for the food... At least try the pork gyoza and you can call it a successful trip! These dumplings are some of the greatest I've ever had. So good we cleaned the plate before even thinking to snap a picture. The hot knight was also fantastic, lots of flavor and great texture!! I wouldn't have the hot gabby again. Half of it came fried and half did not, the texture was odd, there wasn't much flavor, and overall we just weren't impressed. My udon noodles were good but definitely not spicy and unfortunately they didn't have many options to kick up the heat. Our server brought me a spicy seasoning mix but there was no chili oil or spicy sauce, so that was a bummer. Service was good but they seemed short staffed. There was one younger gentleman basically running the show for the front of house, and he was absolutely crushing it, but there definitely needed to be at least one more person to help from what we observed. Atmosphere is good, casual. A little crowded when there's a full house, but still a nice every day stop. Prices are really good for Nashville! Overall, this a good casual sit down place.

    The food and the service were excellent! We had the California roll, the Sean special roll and crab Rangoon.

    Food is always amazing!

    Food is always amazing. Staff and service is great. We have been going for years and it has been consistent.

    We went here for weekend lunch and it was Very Good. The food was tasty and presented well. The entrees that we got were both HUGE portions. Alot of food and moderately priced. They had a Boba Bar as soon as you enter. We were greeted and given a table quickly. The service was good and the staff were friendly. I will say that they have a big menu with alot of choices. Sushi, Entrees, Rice and Sushi bowls along with plenty of appetizers. You can also view the chef's prepare the fresh made to order Sushi. There is plenty of free parking. They also have Sake, Beers and Wine. It's a nice spot if you're in Mt. Juliet.

    Best food I've had in Tennessee, bar none. Service was amazing, lighting is perfect, and the food is actually insane.

    Let me first say I have tried MANY sushi restaurants in Wilson and Sumner Counties since moving here from the DC area, all fell flat. This place hit the spot. Great service, nice atmosphere and tasty sushi. As a matter of fact, I went for lunch on Valentine's Day and they had a nice romantic playlist on for those that may come on dates, thoughtful. I had the Tempura Cali Roll and New York roll, I didn't want to try anything to crazy as my past experiences in other restaurants had been so poor with nasty raw sushi. These rolls were delicious! My server was incredibly attentive and kind. The price was phenomenal and I will be back. I highly recommend it.

    Ok so I wasn't sure if I've been there before but then I realized I had come here before, ha! Not sure why I didn't review then. This experience was ok. Restaurant was not that busy and service was ok. Nothing bad just nothing special. The menu has a lot of options so you will definitely find something you'll like. They have beer, wine, mixed drinks, sake and the fountain drinks. The restaurant is divided by two room and the decorations are simple but work. I will have to say the chairs are NOT comfortable at all, they are very hard and no cushion so to spend 30 mins to an hour+ on them could give you some hump pain. Also, the bar top table is not leveled so be careful if you're eating a soup (what I had) you have a high risk of spilling it. Not very comfortable eating eight. The sushi bar staff was very friendly and attentive. They have TVs and today (Sunday) they were tuned on football games. Bathroom, only 2 stalls and 1 small sink and could use a bit of tidying up/cleaning. I ordered the Japanese Ramen (spicy) and the Avocado Ball. Both very good. The ramen was a miso based broth with the right noodles, I enjoyed it. It wasn't too spicy but it definitely had its kick. The Avocado Ball was good but I feel the tuna meat was missing some flavor. It's not spicy even though it's "spicy tuna". I did enjoyed it but I asked for ginger (doesn't come with it) and used soy sauce. It's a good size so I would definitely consider it as a "roll" or a shareable appetizer. It's messy so I ate it with a fork. Overall, I'll recommend and will come back for a meal every once in a while when I'm around the area.

    Avocado Bomb
    Danielle J.

    A few hits and misses here. And my expectations were lower for being a sushi place in the burbs to begin, but the high rating gave me hope! First off...rushing someone's meal is never ok and especially with the cost to eat out. Biggest issue here was service timing. You make more money when you encourage customers to order more not RUSH them with a bill or with trying to take their plate before they are finished eating. Please educate your wait staff on this to help you and them make more money. I also had to flag another server down to get me basic items in order to eat my meal bc the server camped out in a side room. Cuts of sashimi were great in size, though the salmon was still a little frozen. Avocado bomb looked great but in the process the spicy tuna some how ended up getting cooked, and cooked where it was a bit strange in comparison to having same thing at other places. The specialty roll options are heavily weighted with a California roll base which maybe the area has more appeal to that. Overall not bad but won't be a regular for me.

    New ownership? New chef? New vibe? My last review for the Mori Mori wasn't the best and as a reminder, we ordered it to go and during the middle of the pandemic. The last two times we have eaten here, once inside and one to-go order, have both been stellar. The food quality is much better and the staff here is awesome. Shout out to Justin! He was our server last time we ate here and he was great, very attentive and fast! We've literally ordered too many rolls to name, so I will just say get the Avocado Bomb and the Angry Lobster roll if you're dining in. I'm not sure how well these food items will travel. If you're ordering to for pickup; stay with the classic rolls. A few highlights for me are the Crunch Mania roll and the Caterpillar roll. Maybe add a some crispy calamari to that order?! Roll on, Mount Juliet!

    hidden gem in mt juliet. stopped in last min on a friday night. was pretty full but got seated in a couple mins!! waiter was a cool mixed dude who was serving, bringing out food, sitting people and running the tea section. impressive. but my gf and i split an order of pork gyoza, the hot night roll and some boba teas. ALL was delicious. for entrees i got the chicken katsudon with fried rice. scrumptious and a MASSIVE portion. the gf shrimp udon noodles. great flavor in the one bite she gave me lol we also ordered the hot gabby roll cause we were munching but didn't enjoy that roll as much. all and all was really good and looking forward to going back

    This is one of the best sushi places around Middle TN!! Everything I've had on their menu is delicious. My husband and I love coming here for date nights and splitting the sushi boat A. It is the perfect amount for both of us! They also have a really good happy hour. It's currently 3pm - 6pm Monday - Friday. $6 cocktails!!! There is tons of parking, the restaurant is always clean, and the staff is always so nice!! Things are also pretty reasonably priced. They also have lunch specials. I would definitely recommend coming here. It's also nice that it is a local restaurant because Mount Juliet is mostly filled with chain restaurants.

    Mango Tango Roll
    Karissa D.

    The roll I had didn't have much flavor but it definitely didn't taste bad! The kimchi ramen was pretty good. The servers were attentive and did well with checking on us. It was nice to finish off the meal with some Boba that's located inside!

    If you walk into a restaurant at 7pm on a Wednesday night and the place is fully packed and there…read moreare people waiting behind you to be sat, you KNOW you made the right decision to go there. We were greeted nicely by the hostess and waited roughly 5 minutes for a table to open up. A family of five came in right after us and decided to sit at the bar to eat. I knew in my heart that this was the best place to go to for my husband's birthday dinner. We sat on some barstools while we waited, discussing the hockey game playing on the tv behind the bar. I loved the low ambient lighting that spread across the ceiling. Our waitress was nice but she never gave us her name so I unfortunately can't shout her out. She gave us recommendations so I ended up taking one of hers. Now, if you have read my Thai restaurant reviews, you know by now that I judge a Thai restaurant by ordering their Pad Thai the first visit, however, I broke that rule because I just KNEW this place was going to be good. We ordered the Tom Kha soup with chicken, Pad Kee Mao with chicken, I ordered the Khao Soi Gai (it comes with chicken, no substitutions), and one Thai iced tea. You guys. When the Tom Kha soup touched my lips, I was SO excited to get the main course! It was made PERFECTLY. I haven't had true Tom Kha since probably when I lived in California over a decade ago. The Thai tea was strong and delicious, exactly how it should be made. The Khao Soi Gai...that first sip of the curry broth nearly made me go Meg Ryan-mode in the restaurant. If you know, you know. "I'll have what she's having!" Our waitress recommended this dish and I'm so glad I was adventurous and tried something different outside of my "I'll judge you based off of your Pad Thai" attitude. It was perfect and when I say perfect, I didn't even add lime juice to it because I didn't want to mess anything up with the flavor profile. Sure, lime could have added another element to the dish but when I say it was perfect the way it was, it's true. The night at Smiley would have ended perfectly if it weren't for the miserable couple who sat beside us discussing how unhappy they were in their marriage and decided to accept the waitstaff into their broken marriage by being completely rude. But the staff remained professional and kind through it all and I give them HUGE props for that because I was a moment away from telling that wretched couple off. In short, the staff here are wonderful, and the food is memorable, delectable, delicious, perfect...it's HEAVEN. We will DEFINITELY be back to try other menu items!

I had the Pad Tai prawns, it was a lot of food but it was so gooooood!!! I couldn't even finish it all, so I took it home, our server was very attentive, the ambiance was good, packed but not loud! Definitely would recommend and we will be back!

Following my retail endeavors, I resolved to secure a proper midday meal and stopped at an establishment titled Asian Cuisine. The initial arrival was entirely seamless, with perfectly adequate parking accommodations. The venue offers a lovely option for alfresco dining, so I naturally escorted myself to an excellent table outside. From the street, the exterior presentation appears perfectly modest and normal. Upon glancing inside, I noted some rather tasteful lighting decorations and a few exclusive private areas. While the interior architecture is certainly not overly fancy or ostentatious, it possesses a comfortable, straightforward charm. A thoroughly charming gentleman promptly attended to my table, providing an absolute masterclass in attentive hospitality. He graciously offered me a traditional Chinese hot pot a most comforting and wonderful addition to the table. For my main luncheon course, I selected the Kung Pao Shrimp from the menu. The culinary execution was an absolute triumph. The shrimp were beautifully prepared, perfectly seasoned, and rendered my lunch entirely complete. The seamless combination of elite, warm customer service and delicious, comforting fare made for an absolute treat of an afternoon.

From portion size, to the thoughtful service, to the freshest dishes undoubtedly made with love- one is left feeling less like a customer and more like family. One thing that my wife and I couldn't wrap our heads around was why in the world all of Nashville isn't packing this place daily? All we could gather is that it is so unassuming that people don't even know what they have in their own backyard. Do yourself a favor; GO!

We stopped in on a rainy Saturday afternoon a little before 4:00 PM after reading the Yelp reviews. We hadn't eaten all day and honestly weren't paying much attention to the time. When we walked in, we were the only customers in the restaurant. What we didn't realize until we were nearly finished with our meal was that the restaurant didn't actually open until 4:00 PM. Mr. Lee, the owner, never mentioned it once. Instead, he greeted us with a warm smile and welcomed us as if we were longtime regulars. That kind of genuine hospitality is rare and immediately set the tone for an exceptional experience. The food absolutely lived up to the reviews. The kimchi was outstanding--fresh, flavorful, with just the right amount of spice. Every sushi roll we ordered was beautifully prepared and incredibly tasty. Hint don't skip the brown sauce! But the star of the meal was the Bulgogi Roll. I had never tried one before, and now I can't imagine visiting Sushi Circle without ordering it. The combination of tender, well marinated beef and other flavors was unforgettable and unlike anything I've had at other sushi restaurants. Between the outstanding food and Mr. Lee's kindness, it's easy to see why Sushi Circle has built such a loyal following. Our first visit felt less like dining at a restaurant and more like being welcomed into someone's home. We'll definitely be back, and next time I'll be ordering the Bulgogi Roll first.
