    A disappointing little "pint" of  shrimp fried rice

    Very disappointed with out last Visit. It seems that they are drastically trying to save money. The shrimp was half the size they used to serve, as are the containers.​ I ordered a variety of pint sized food options. The portions arrived in barely 4oz containers. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come

    Fried wonton chips!  And spicy salmon maki.  Nigiri: hamachi.  Unagi, tamago, eel cucumber maki.  Saba nigiri.  2019 02 16.  S19.

    I was unfortunately disappointed by my early dinner at this darkly-lit, strip-mall restaurant about 1/4 mile west of Troy. With only four other diners seated, the single sushi chef was busy enough with about five small take-out orders to delay my order to 30 minutes from the time I arrived. As I initially sat at the empty sushi bar, I thought I briefly noticed a peculiar fishy smell. The display cooler seemed normal, and the food I was served had a fresh appearance, texture and taste, so I could not identify the source. I did see that none of the fish in the cooler was individually wrapped, as I have seen at every other restaurant. Instead, one single giant sheet of plastic film covered all of the items together. There were no settings prepared at the sushi bar, so it took the waitress a minute or two to assemble the cloth napkin, fork, waribashi and bowls. I was handed a bowl of fried wonton crisps and "orange colored dip," from the stack of pre-filled chip bowls, sitting over at the corner of the sushi bar. I amused myself, noticing that my "chip" bowl was chipped. However, this did not distract me from the lukewarm tea and bland soup I was served. As I was killing time during my extended wait for my entree, one of the waitresses had her shift meal. Despite all of the empty tables in the restaurant, she grabbed a seat next to me at the bar. While this is usually not allowed at other restaurants, I once again lowered my expectations here. After she finished eating, the chef finally presented me with a small amuse bouche: chopped up tempura covered tiny flavorless fishbits over wakame. When my entree came, as two separate plates, I was less than impressed with my usual order of a couple of maki and a handful of nigiri. The plating was pretty simple, with slices of lemon as the only decoration. While the presentation was competent, the flavors were not there. The rice itself was very bland, wasabi was missing from the nigiri, the spicy salmon was not spicy, overpowered by the "crunch" filler. The egg cake, thankfully not advertised as tamago, was strange: surprisingly warm without the taste of eggs fresh-from-the-pan. The mackerel was pretty small, as I watched the chef open and slice off the first pieces from a vacuum sealed package. I was finally poured hot tea - just in time to pay my bill. With the bill came - what else? - a small plate of fruit and, of course, a pre-packaged fortune cookie. I really can't see a reason to return soon. 2019 02 16. S19.

    Bone in Ribs with pork fried rice not bad

    So tonight we ate at the Okinawa it was a very decent place to go and get Chinese we took it out and we ate at home but they were fast courteous and delivered the food to us in a timely manner when we got there. The food was good overall the one thing I would say is that I would definitely tomorrow make sure that you look at the menu when you order because some of the things I've never had with spice such as sesame chicken. It kind of threw me off when I took a bite of it and it was pretty spicy I'm not against spice but when I'm not looking for it or wanting it on my food it makes for difficult dish 2 continue to eat. It was like they made it with the General Tsao Chicken sauce instead of the sesame chicken sauce and it just doesn't make sense to me. I will say though that everything else was delicious and with that being said I would recommend this place to anyone who would like a good Japanese or Chinese restaurant cuisine to try. Thank you so much for listening.

    Our second visit was disappointing. My friend had Hot & Spicy Shredded Beef, it came out mostly bell peppers and onions with a few strips of meat hidden inside. My House Special Lo Mein was good though.

    The sushi is surprisingly good for being located in a ghetto strip mall. The service is God awful but quality of fish is great.

    I've only had the take out so I don't know much about the atmosphere, but the sushi is delicious.

    The food is clean -nothing is over sauced like many similar restaurants. The crispy beef is to die for!

    The sushi I ordered was made with spoiled fish. First bite tasted off, then I smelled it. Yuck. I will never eat here again.

    Okinawa is a good place to go and the prices are reasonable. It's simple inside and they have good food, nice sized portions.
