Great tasting ramen!…read more My family and I made this place a pit-stop for dinner on a Sacramento to Los Angeles trip. Our original target was the Fresno location, but due to a GPS entry error, we ended up at their Clovis location! It was a little longer drive than usual, but still well-worth the drive. And besides, we were on a family long weekend break so who cares about distance... Our orders were quickly taken on the counter and we were off to find our table. A lot of places to choose from inside and outside seating was also available. And the place was nicely decorated and well-lit! Feels comfortable to dine inside! The menu was quite expansive. And you even have the choice of minor changes to the regular menu. I ordered an Oxtail Ramen...a first of this kind for me, so I just had to have it. And it passed with flying colors! Weird ingredient...but absolutely tasty! And at a really affordable price range! You just have to try our this place when you're in the area! You will love it!

High hopes. Didn't completely hit the mark…read more You order at the counter, then they bring the food out to your table. Staff was friendly, though it was very little interaction. Good amount of tables and seats. Simple, minimal decor and it was clean, from what I can remember. He got the Shoyu Ramen (#2) and I got the Spicy Miso Ramen (#4). We both agreed the broth wasn't as hot as we'd like and could use just a touch more flavor. Both were okay, but I preferred my broth more. I wish I paid attention to the fact that mine came with THIN noods though... I feel like I would've enjoyed my dish way more with thick noodles. To be honest, I should have done the build-your-own Ramen and selected everything I wanted myself... now I know. You live and you learn. The Wontons were good but we didn't eat much of it, as it came out the same time as the ramen. Once the ramen was served, our main focus was on that and that filled us up! Packed the rest to go. For this being our first time, it wasn't bad but it didn't wow us. If I'm being honest, so far-- the best Ramen we've ever had was in a small little shop we found while in Thailand back in March (yup, Thailand!). Unfair to this rating maybe? But-- every ramen I try will be compared to that now (sorry, it was THAT good). Until next time, which there will be a next time (just unsure how soon that will be)... they get a middle placement.

I was dining at the Ruth Chris Steakhouse just across the street the other day and I noticed this…read moreJapanese sushi place located in the Villaggio Shopping Center on North Blackstone Ave. I checked it out online and come to find they offer all you can eat sushi lunch and dinner options just like all the sushi places in Nevada do. I've found it rare to find AYCE (all you can eat) sushi on California. I didn't think Fresno was a sushi hot spot or anything. So, I came here with a couple of others that wanted to try it out. Dinner was the better option as it offers all of the traditional sushi and sashimi. We got seated just fine by the friendly host and I hear this place can get pretty crowded. Looking over then menu I notice it's more mainstream oriented, like for people who just order rolls cause that's what they think sushi is. No super exotic fish or anything or even salmon roe (Ikura). The menu lists the fish on top of rice pieces as "sushi" instead of nigiri. I'm surprised sashimi, (fish and no rice) is offered on the AYCE menu. Inside looks on the upscale side, so this is more of a "nice" place to go like on a date or something. We all went for the AYCE dinner for around $40 per person. That's about the going price for AYCE sushi these days. I started with the expensive stuff, like the sashimi and nigiri fish. I just got one roll. We were all sharing all the stuff we ordered. Sushi is supposed to be like that, a shared experience. The tempura fried shrimp was pretty good as were the rolls the other guys ordered. The fish quality was decent as was the service. We all stuffed ourselves as much as we could. I would recommend this place if you want to experience sushi and just pay one price and eat all you want. For the money, it's a decent deal.

All-you-can-eat sushi and it did NOT disappoint! Everything we ordered was delicious, fresh, and…read morekept coming so definitely bring your appetite! The service was also amazing. Our server was super attentive and consistently checked in on us throughout our meal. Our water glasses were always promptly refilled without us ever having to ask. Great food, great service, and overall a really enjoyable experience! BTW, if you don't eat all of your food they will up charge!

The restaurant is beautiful, clean, and well-kept. All the staff were so nice and welcoming, from the hosts to our server. Everyone was super helpful, which made the experience even better! For starters, they brought us edamame, and then we ordered the UNI shooter. It was good, but that aftertaste wasn't my favorite. I completely forgot it was made with sake, and I'm not a fan of sake. Call me weird, right? Most people love pairing raw sushi with sake, but not me! LOL. Next, we got the salmon spoon, and OMG, the salmon was so fresh! I absolutely loved it, and that sauce on top was SO GOOD! I also ordered two nigiri pieces and a temaki roll. The otoro was incredibly soft and fresh; it practically melted in my mouth! The uni was also super fresh and didn't taste fishy at all, which I loved. I was really hoping to try the sweet shrimp, but unfortunately, they didn't have any that day. Lastly, we tried the uni pasta. It was just okay for me. It had a slightly fishy taste that didn't sit too well with my palate. Overall, I had a great experience! Not every dish was a personal favorite, but the service, atmosphere, and freshness of the sushi definitely stood out. I would absolutely come back whenever I'm in town again!

I called and made a reservation, so we were seated as soon as we walked in. Our server took our drink order and handed us menus. We all decided on the lunch combination then ordered edamame as well. The edamame, salad, and soups came out quickly. The soup was hot and the salad was fresh with enough dressing. Our chef came out and of course he was a young guy. He knew what he was doing and at some point in cooking, lit a fire and we sang Happy Birthday to our granddaughter. He asked us often if we would like a certain food on our plate which was nice. We all received plenty of each item and at the end, took our leftovers home. Pepsi products, so I had a Dr. Pepper. One of the kids had a Shirley Temple and the other a lemonade. Excellent service, fresh food, and clean bathrooms.

She even took the menu out of my hand while I was still asking a question and finishing my order, which came across as quite rude. Thankfully, the rest of the experience more than made up for it. Our Teppanyaki chef was charismatic, entertaining, and made the meal a lot of fun. Best of all, the food was absolutely delicious! I would definitely come back for the chef and the great food--I just hope for better service next time.

From quality service and food to laid-back atmosphere, the kindness and love was definitely felt throughout. Even upon our first moments entering, we felt the love from the sushi chef who greeted us with genuine care. We ordered a mix of sashimi, rolls, and apps, and we were not disappointed. The only reason this isn't a 5 star review is bc I want room to grow for when we return for the ramen, which was recommended by our generous server at the end. See you again soon, Shobu!
