I figured the fried rice and salt and pepper wings would be a good place to start...figured I had worked hard that week and topped it off with a fresh squeezed lemonade.... Estimated wait time was short...maybe 15 min...I thought to myself that's pretty good. I arrived in 20 min and my food was there ready to be picked up...unfortunately I also ordered and extra drink...a half and half (blame it on my quick fingers I guess)....I drove home but decided to try the half and half in the car...few sips and I looked to see what happened.......straight fire, no self control lol....expensive but well worth it...very refreshing...I hate to type it...but I believe they have chic fil a beat.. Wings were decent a solid 7.8 out of 10....but it was the beef fried rice that impressed me....it actually tasted fresh...I might have found my new local go-to....I believe they specialize in Vietnamese food but I'll have to explore the menu a little more to give you the ins and outs...when it comes to quick and efficient but fresh...I'm willing to certainly try them again....

We were sat on the hibachi side and the chairs were very low even with the extra cushion that was on the chairs. We chose our combos it's A,B or C. It's tells you what you can get in that specific combo. It's took a while For the chef to come out. We were wondering what was taking so long. While we waited I had the soup which was not Miso but beef broth. It was good. The salad sat in dressing which made the iceberg lettuce soggy but ehh it was alight. The noodles were a funny looking color. Even though they were lo mein shaped noodles, they did not taste like anything. He did not really season the food good, the garlic was thrown on the food but not until the last min. The shrimp was not all the way clean. I have had way better hibachi. We were giving to go boxes and not even asked if we need anything else. Five mins later I e were given the check. We felt rush and the place was no where near busy.. I wouldn't go back! It's just not for me. My friend was sick as soon as we left. P.s the lemon drop martini was really good and the soup.

We got squid salads and one baby octopus appetizer. They were in oddly huge bowls with super small portions but the taste was good. We ordered three rolls that were outstanding. Too bad my husband didn't get any ginger or wasabi. I lifted the small bowl for soy sauce and it stuck to the table. I refrained from another drink and that was probably the best idea since the total bill with tip was over $100. And there definitely wasn't a happy hour discount. Overall the food was good, portion size on appetizers not good, and happy hour is a no go. We may try hibachi one day but we're not hurrying back.

Just mounds and mounds of greasy rice with occasional morsels of meat and silvers of onions. I guess they forgot or skimped on fish sauce. I had to use the salt packet included in the plastic utensils it came with. I've never done that before! I polished the whole container because I was starving.....and realized how greasy the food was afterwards. I wouldn't order from here again.

I was happy to have discovered this local restaurant that uses quality ingredients for a nice…read moredinner out when I was searching for an alternative to the booked up Wardroom (and Bas Rouge was more than what we wanted to spend that night). For reservations, they don't use any of the popular reservation platforms, so I called their number to schedule a reservation. Fortunately, I was able to make it for the same day- Friday evening, no less! The restaurant is in a house, and they asked me if we were okay with the second floor (bearing in mind there are stairs). There are two rooms on the second floor with a several tables in each, and there were people, so we weren't isolated. There is also a restroom located on the second floor, so you don't have to go down the stairs to use the restroom. We parked across the street in a public parking lot. We received complimentary (warm) bread and butter! You don't see that much anymore. We started off with drinks. I had the Korean spicy margarita, which I loved, and my husband had the strawberry rhubarb cider, which was also good. The menu offers many choices for both appetizers and entrees. We ordered two appetizers- the Asian beef lettuce wraps (3 lettuce wraps- when you're a party of 2 or 4, that number is annoying!) and the short rib ravioli. Both apps were wonderful. For entrees, don't forget the specials. We ordered the soft-shell crab special and also the duo of duck off the entrees menu. The vegetables in both dishes were fresh, and the sauces were complimentary to the mains. Close to being unable to eat any more, but we simply had to close the fantastic dinner with desserts. I ordered the lemon semi-freddo and my husband ordered the flourless chocolate cake, and both passed the taste test. We were pleased with the attentive service, food, and vibes, and would keep this place in mind when we come back to this area!

I am not big on buffets for hygienic reasons. However, I did try a few items once they were newly put out. One thing I did not like was how long it took for them to replace certain items. I waited close to 30 mins for fresh pineapple fried rice, which tasted okay. Surprisingly the pad thai was delicious and super moist! I enjoyed the bbq because most kbbq places have limited pescatarian friendly options. The salmon cooked in butter was delicious once I added some garlic a few little spices to jazz it up. The shrimp also tasted super fresh. I would definitely return

I had a stellar experience at Otani!…read more The restaurant itself itself is very cozy. The decor is very simple; A few paintings on the wall and a view to watch the sushi chefs at the bar. I ordered the beef tataki, the sashimi platter, and the tako yaki: - The beef tataki was served chilled; The beef was slightly smokey and the sauce was bright, giving the dish a kind of refreshing feeling. - The fish in the sashimi platter was very fresh and the display was beautiful. The sashimi came with miso soup (as good as any other miso soup). - I loved the takoyaki! I tend to think takoyaki tastes about the same everywhere, but this may genuinely have been my favorite takoyaki I've tried in the area; I had to resist ordering a second plate of it. As a solo diner, I spent $58 (excluding tip) for what I perceive to be a lot of food. For a fancy solo outing, I think it was great value for the quality of food. The staff was also very attentive and my food came out promptly. This is a great solo dining or date spot.

If you are celebrating an event, this could definitely be a cute spot for it. The restaurant accommodated 10 of us. They seated us quickly and our waitress was very attentive. She was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and made personalized suggestions for each person. Restaurant was also extremely good at handling allergies. We got a plethora of rolls across the table and most things were so good. There were a couple of rolls that were not my favorite and the miso soup was overly salty, but those two things were literally the only downsides of my entire experience. Verdict: if you're in Annapolis definitely give Tsunami a try!

I liked the addition of panko breadcrumbs for crunch, but I wish the imitation crab meat had been shredded more finely for better texture. For my entree, I ordered the Spicy Basil Crispy Duck (added $1 for Thai spicy). They definitely delivered on the spicy level, but the duck itself was not crispy. It came with rice and bell peppers and basil. The sushi tasted fresh, which was good. Service could use some improvement. We had to ask for small bowls for soy sauce, and when we requested a dessert menu to celebrate the birthday, we were told the kitchen had already closed. It would have been nice if our server had given us a heads up before the kitchen closed. The ambiance is cozy. It almost feels like dining in someone's house. They had Halloween decorations up and murals of historic Frederick painted on the walls. They also have a private parking lot, which made it convenient. Overall, food was good, but a little more attentiveness from the staff would've made the experience even better.

Neighborhood chicken bowl mild: delicious the chicken breading is crispy and has the perfect curry taste without being overpowering. The pickled veggies with it is a great palate cleanser and balances all the flavors. I got it mild and while I was nervous of the spice level being too much for me (I'm a weenie) it was perfect, the kind of spice that actually adds to the dish instead of hurting you. Tempura broccoli: So good! Crunchy without being oily, it had a bunch of herbs on it the brightened the whole dish. Ancho chile pork bun: perfectly smokey and meaty without being fatty. This one we really struggled to eat as an actually sandwich because the pork is cubed so it just falls out the sides. The buns are a fun addition and have good texture so I'm happy we tried it, but if I went back I would be fine without it. Crab Rangoon: I was a bit skeptical about 1 crab Rangoon being $10 but that is because o was thinking of my midwestern type of crab rangoons. This was PACKED with actual crab and not a whole lot of cream cheese so the price made more sense when I figured that out. Still very good, but did not stand out amongst the rest. The place was so cool inside, they had about 7-10 bar seats inside with 2 tables outside, I recommend taking this to go. The service was nice and quick, you can tell they have a very efficient process. My only suggestion would be to turn the music down a little bit because it was hard for me and my husband to just talk to each other about plans that we had for the rest of the day. So happy this was featured on the yelp top 100 places so that we could try it!

I ordered two main dishes and was originally told it would take about 15 minutes, but it ended up taking double that, so just keep that in mind if you're in a rush like we were. The space itself is pretty small too, so it's more of a grab and go place. The Neighborhood Bird bowl was a HUGE portion. It was kind of spicy but the pickled onions helped even it out. I also tried the ancho chile pork bun. The bun itself tasted amazing,but it was a bit difficult to eat. The bottom got pretty soggy while the top bun was thick and tall, so it kind of fell apart while eating.
