    Foo was ok not much complaints about taste, but the Ayce sushi menu had limited amount of sushi + not a lot of nigiri option. After the first round did not get to order the appetizers again. 1.5/3 Service was fine no complaints .5/.5. Ambiance was fine, restaurant is a little small, .5/.5 no extra point 0/1

    Dynamite Roll, Kamikaze Roll, Fatty Shrimp Roll

    Absolutely amazing as always! I love the rolls and their AYCE as great as well! They also gave us miso soup for takeout.

    Price is fair

    Ordered for delivery. Service was fast and the food tastes really fresh. I'll be honest, this is one of the best sushi restaurants in town. There are a handful of other sushi places but nothing exciting. I prefer to eat rolls without rice for dietary purposes, so the selection at Picnic is almost unlimited. Price for dishes is fair. Although this was a delivery, I have been inside of this restaurant and ambiance is nice. Will definitely come back.

    Food wasn't bad, the service was terrible. They were not attentive at all, there was a hair in our food and they shrugged it off. Charged the full price for even food with hair. Disgusting. The server messed up 2 times in a span of 30 minutes, giving us the wrong food, giving us the wrong paper, and then once i mentioned the hair they repeatedly told me to wait rudely and said it was fine. When I mentioned it one more time, he looked at me and said "I dont know what you want to do what do you want to do because I have no idea." I payed, left tip, and walked out. Never going back. I'm usually not a nitpicky or bad review person; This genuinely ruined my night.

    Crab salad & Garden salad!

    Amazing sushi spot!!! We got AYCE here and it's really great quality fish for a reasonable price. P.S. make sure to bring cash so you can get $5 EACH person! The service was spot on as well - I literally asked for a tea and gave some to my friend and she noticed and gave us another without even asking!! Would definitely come back here, just wished this place was a tiny bit bigger so more people can sit - we did wait 40 minutes!

    Okay, I'm a fan! Came here for dinner on a Saturday night. This place is small, so there is limited seating at the bar (I believe 4 seats), and maybe 6 or 7 tables (a mix for 2 and 4 people). You can also bring your own wine/alcohol here as well. All you can eat was $25/person if you pay in cash, or $30/person with card. That's why I docked off a star. That's quite a price gap. It would be more reasonable if it was a dollar or two maybe... but that's just my opinion. The menu was quite extensive. Their specialty rolls were a hit, along with the normal rolls offered at every place. Their bento boxes come with plenty of food too. Service there is good. The servers there are to ensure that when a guest leaves, they clean that table right away for the next. They're fast! I'd come again, and probably bring cash this time.

    I've never done their AYCE but I do love coming here for dinner. It's not the most romantic or authentic but they do make some terrific tasty specialty rolls. My boyfriend is a huge huge fan of lots of flavors, lots of sauce and fried things. My favorites are the MAIN ROLL (I add avocado), the FRENCH KISS, the CRUNCH ROLL, and the FUJI roll. We love all the torched ones!!! The service is kind but not anything special, but they are really nice. I appreciate the simplicity. Not really a "date night" per se. It's super casual!

    I was a bit skeptical when we first walked in because there was nobody else eating here. However, the food, service, and portions were good. My husband ordered the sushi deluxe which came with a crunchy shrimp roll. Nothing wow about it. I would order the galbi bento box again. Aside from the tasty short ribs, it included a california roll, two pieces of salmon sushi, salad and two shrimp tempuras.

    The sushi was good. We ordered speciality rolls and really could not tell the difference between each roll, sort of all taste the same. I would go back for a quick dinner if I'm in the area but would not go out of my way to go there.

    Spicy crab salad.  Not good. Too much lettuce. Id avoid.

    Dez made a reappearance after many years to Picnic, and i have to say - i am still a fan! Why only 4 stars? Well the quality of the fish is very edible, but ive had better. quality could be a bit fresher. however, the rolls here are VERY unique...service is good....and theres all types of apps on the AYCE menu. They take cards - $25 for AYCE. very small, maybe about 6 tables. parking is out front, usually free after 6 PM. Small recap.... Sushi donut - dont waste your time, too much rice, maybe 2 slices of fish on top, sauce overpowered the donut. Sushi Pizza- a must get! we all loved this! the bottom is a fried tempura shell with rice, then nori and various fish on top. seaweed salad- slimey and very moist, not that fresh spicy crab salad- mainly salad with tomatoes and very little but of spicy crab, i wouldnt waste my time with this one. My friends were very happy with their udon and dumpling soups! rolls...and rolls and rolls... first off, the BBQ rolls is not the same as i remembered. its not torched at the table and it needed to be torched some more. the french kiss is a must get - it has thinly sliced lemon slices on top, which sound intimidating, but this was one of my fave rolls of the night! fuji- looks stunning, nothing spectacular here. the mango on top was a nice touch. very sharable yam yam - another one of my faves. love the shrimp and the white sauce on top! a must get! spicy mania- always a safe go to roll. good, not too spicy, plenty of flavor. fatty shrimp- only 5 pcs but its packed with fish and flavor! Would i come back? absolutely, the rolls are good. I like the variety and they truly have unique rolls on the AYCE menu - alot are torched or fried. Theres even a chicken tempura one too!

    Is there parking?

    There's a municipal parking lot around the corner, 2 min walk

    Are they still doing 25$ AYCE at this time/dine in?

    As of last week, 12/20/20 they were! $25 AYCE cash or $28 CC. its the best AYCE around! their sushi is so fresh and the Haru and Fatty Shrimp roll are amazing.

    Is it BYOB?

    Yup.

    What time does the lunch buffet start/end? Any other info about the buffet that people should know of?

    Not a buffet. You get a paper menu and can order unlimited amounts. I believe they do the all you can eat throughout the day

The inside is super cute, and the display of the food is top notch. - Hand-roll set, (5/5): very worth your money! this entire set can definitely fill you up, and each of the hand rolls are so unique in flavor and super filling. I love the banchan as well, and my favorite is the edamame, which I think or flavored with miso butter?? - Pork Cutlet set, (4.5/5): got curry on the side as extra for $5, because it doesn't feel right to have tonkatsu without curry! The cutlet itself was fried very well, and it was not oily at all. it was on the sliiightly drier side, but I recommend getting it with the curry - Yuzu Cheesecake, (3.75/5): can taste the yuzu here, but the texture itself was a bit crumby, and I prefer a creamier texture. the serving size was also a bit small, and we felt that the strawberry didn't really pair well with the cheesecake overall I would come here again to try their other menu items! I heard their dons were pretty good. that's all from me thanks for reading :^)

I ordered the Unagi Don Gozen ($42)- it came with a whole tray of different delicious items, with the star of the show being a generous amount of unagi (eel) over rice. The eel was cooked very well and the rice was flavorful with a bit of sweetness. There was also a small bowl of udon noodles, some sashimi, a crispy tempura shrimp in a yummy creamy sauce, flavorful edamame, mashed potato with corn, and some pickled veggies - quite the diverse array, all of which was tasty. The restaurant itself has a rather simple yet elegant Japanese wooden design. The prices suggest it's a more high end place, but the vibe is actually rather casual. The staff are very attentive and the service speed is pretty quick. Overall, I would definitely give Moru 4.5 stars if I could. I think it's great for most types of occasions, and the only reasons it's not getting 5 stars is because I do think the prices are a tad higher than I would've hoped and I think they could've done a bit more in terms of designing the place to match the price point. That being said, I still highly recommend Moru, especially for a nice lunch.

What is so hard about just putting hot soup in a bowl and some noodles in another bowl? Well, the waiter had an attitude and said that could not be done. It's the cold noodles on the side and the hot noodles had to be in the soup. I like my noodles al dente so I prefer them on the side. He wasn't going to have it. Kept on arguing with me, so I asked to speak to someone else. Much discussion went on about this and I just decided I didn't want to be annoyed anymore. The customer is always right. I went a few doors down to a Cajun place and the people next to me asked for their sauce on the side. The waiter there said ok. People want their food how they want it. Just understand this when you serve food. If you look at my photos for my previous visit, you can see they put the noodles on the side. What's so difficult about that? It wasn't like this place had a line out the door either at lunch time so they cannot afford to drive away customers.

If you are thinking, no need to think. Go! Trust me! You won't regret it! First of all, the sushi chefs are Japanese, so you know that the sushi is going to be legit. And it was busy there from customers and take-out, so you know that everything will be fresh, too. There were so many options to choose from the menu, so I had to ask for a recommendation. My friend and I were recommended to try the omakase option and, boy, that was a perfect choice! There were 3 types of omakase and we chose the first one. -Sushi omakase - $70 -Sashimi omakase - $80 -Sushi & sashimi omakase - $90 This was my first omakase experience where I walked out super full and impressed. -We were advised to eat each piece without soy sauce because each piece was curated with their own unique flavors. -After our first bite, we were advised that we could ask the sushi chef to adjust the rice and wasabi ratio in each sushi piece. We decided to keep it as is. -The wasabi here is really good, but spicy, so if you can't handle the spiciness, definitely ask for less. I was crying because of the wasabi but I didn't want it to be adjust because it was so good. -On the menu, it states that you have 2 hours, which allowed us to enjoy the omakase at a nice pace. -The udon soup you get in the end is made with hand-cut, chewy noodles and it was a perfect ending. -And this omakase also includes a dessert at the end, which was a perfect sweet ending. I hope you made the right decision to come here for your sushi craving/experience. Once you come here, I bet this will be your regular sushi spot. Tips: -Yamagata in a small shopping plaza with parking, but it fills up fast. There is metered parking on the street if needed. -This place is cozy and intimate, so if you are planning to come at a busy time, I would suggest calling to make a reservation. -For the omakase experience, if you can, sit at the sushi counter so that you could get the full experience by getting each sushi piece from the sushi chef.
