    Dined here on my own. Lots of parking was kind of quiet but that wasn't a problem…read more My server was very kind and friendly. I ordered a hibachi plate with beef. The amount of food was a lot and the price was decent. I couldn't finish my meal. There was a whole plate of steak and veggies with two scoops of rice. I also got a miso soup and side salad with my meal. The miso soup was decent. And the side salad was a small bowl of lettuce, which was what you'd expect. I enjoyed my food with all their sauces but probably liked their ginger sauce the best. The meat was cooked as requested, medium rare. Rice was "fried rice" but not like the fried rice I'm used to--just seemed like seasoned rice, but I wasn't heart broken about that. There were lots of tables and the check out was easy enough. No complaints here.

    Sakura in Eden is a spot my husband and I have been going to since we were in high school (which…read morewas half of our lives ago ) so needless to say, it's a tried and true. A great week night dinner spot when you don't feel like cooking and faster/more inexpensive than driving to Greensboro to have "cook in front if you" Japanese. It's also just as good IMO. Their wait staff is usually a pretty young crowd (high school/teenage kids) but we've never left feeling like the service was bad. And our food is always good. Steak and shrimp cooked perfectly with mounds of fluffy rice. They have also added an array of sushi as of late that is great in flavor and price. Definitely worth a try if you live in the area and haven't been by in a while!

    Yon O Express - LIVE BUG crawling out of rice!!

    I am giving one star only because it isn't possible to give less. As a former frequent customer of…read moreYono's, I was exited to hear that it had returned to the Eden mall. My family and I ate there this week, and disappointing doesn't begin to describe out experience. Appearance is not so tidy, dark and unkept feeling. We constantly had to swat away flies from our table (which was covered in salt and NOT cleaned before our seating). Our food tasted mediocre, however I wasn't going to complain. Once I had almost finished my meal I saw a live bug crawling out of my rice. I immediately called the waitress over and showed her as well as made my family quit eating. The owner offered to recook my meal, but I felt as if I could hurl and would never order another meal there. I told the waitress I didn't want another meal after this incident and that I would be in contact with the health dept. after saying that, the owner voided our ticket. Was sick to my stomach the entire day following our visit. The bug could not fly, only crawl. The owner was smiling as if he found it amusing. Completely unacceptable!

    Their rice is never dry like Sakura's and the service is great. However, their egg roll that comes…read morewith the Special is not appetizing at all. It honestly just seems like they're using up the vegetables they didn't use in the egg roll, so it doesn't go to waste. My biggest concern is the sanitation; when I walked inside it smelt a little off and if you see below; a fellow yelper posted a picture of a fly in their food.
