    My friend who lives in the area says that there is usually never a wait here, but, our oversight--we forgot it was Valentine's Day so they didn't take walk-ins for a while due to many tables being reserved. We opted to take out instead but the online order told us it would be ready in 85 minutes... I wish we were given an estimated time prior to ordering, but I believe if we asked earlier it probably would have been ready. Either way, our food was delicious! We ordered pad thai with tofu and green curry with tofu. I would definitely visit again not on a holiday haha. The staff was incredibly nice!

    Maybe one of the best or the best Thai restaurants in Greater Cleveland? My friend and I split an order of chicken pad Thai and chicken Massaman curry for lunch. Both dishes were utterly delicious. We ordered the dishes with a spice level of 2, which provided just a bit of a kick. The pad Thai and curry were both a perfect mix of salty, sweet, sour, and creamy. I was pleasantly surprised with the creaminess of the pad Thai. I'm used to pad Thai being drier at other places, but Raan Thai's noodles had a delectable sticky thickness to the sauce. The chicken in both dishes was tender. The lunch portion sizes were sizeable. I just wish the curry came with a bit more steamed rice. I wanted more rice to soak up that creamy, flavorful curry! The service was also great. Our server was friendly and made sure to keep our glasses of water filled. Note about paying with a card - it does come with a 3% fee. Cash is preferred.

    This was my first time coming here AND 2nd time trying Thai food and it was the best experience ever!!! The workers here are incredibly sweet and helped us so much with what to pick and drink!! Nestled in a corner on a busy street, Raan Thai can be easy too miss... but you'll regret it!! We started with a fresh salad - the Papaya salad, it actually had some spice in it but still super refreshing!!!! For dinner we tried the Panang Curry - which was a coconut curry flavor.... SOOOO GOOD if you want some spice in your dinner, it was almost similar to Indian food. The second dish we tried was Chicken Rama - this was stir fried chicken in their Thai peanut sauce, and let me tell you I was a little scared to try to peanut sauce, but it was very mild and very delicious!! I couldn't even pick a favorite dish, both flavors were awesome! And while we were eating I noticed people drinking some fun drinks - boba tea!!!!!!!!! Finally I had to chance to try it - I had no idea what to try so I asked the server give me her favorite - she was nervous but ended up doing it and I got a honeydew tea with strawberry boba..... IT WAS SO GOOD!!!! And it was so big, I got to take some home and finish it!! I really enjoyed my dinner here and it's always nice supporting local businesses, especially when they are so sweet! I 100% will be back! I can't wait to try more dishes!!

    I discovered Funshi during Yelp Elite event and have been a fan ever since. When I was looking for…read morea spot for casual dinner with my mom, I instantly thought about Funshi. We were both craving sushi and something more hearty. And so, we had a feast complete with sushi, ramen, and bowls. Loved every minute. AMBIANCE: Casual eatery with raised ceilings, modern lighting, and comfy booths. There is a robot waiter delivering your food. The space is always very clean. I love how trendy it looks! The space is equally comfy for groups snd solo dining. FOOD: I'll admit that I tend to be very picky about sushi. There's only one place I frequent in Cleveland for sushi. That's until I added another place to my list - Funshi. There's a huge selection of sushi - more traditional choices and fancy creations. We ordered Tuna Roll ($5.95), Salmon Roll ($5.50), and Alaska Roll ($6.95). Each roll generously comes with 6 pieces. The fish is very fresh and has large portions. There are no excessive ingredients added (like veggies). Sushi is five star eat! I also ordered Curry Beef Bowl ($15.99). I based this experience on a previous visit - tasty huge bowl! Curry Beef Bowl wasn't my favorite. It was too spicy. I tend to eat very mild foods. Still it was a very generous serving. The waitress mentioned that Beef Onion Bowl is a similar dish, but less soupy. My mom ordered Tonkotsu ($10.99) which is a ramen with chicken cutlet (other proteins are available). Huge portion and so hearty! Don't miss out on the rest of the menu - bubble teas, bowls, ramen, appetizers, and deserts. The food is really made with top quality in mind. SERVICE: I was very impressed with service during my visits. Service is excellent. You are genuinely greeted upon entrance. Waiters are super attentive, responsive, and friendly. If you're not feeling especially social, you can order via QR code at your table. You don't see this top notch service much anymore! My mom and I loved our dinner. Days later we're still eating leftovers. We hope to return soon and try the desserts! Actually saving room for desserts next time!

I was working at a coffee shop nearby, 10 mins away, with a friend and we both decided to walk over to Hako to grab lunch. FOOD -- Hako has lots to choose from, including sushi, rice dishes, dumplings, etc. I ordered the Dumpling Bowl ($13.95) for lunch which was delicious and fresh. The Dumpling Bowl includes sushi rice, furikake top fried chicken dumplings, and cucumbers. It is topped with spicy mayo & eel sauce. The chicken dumplings were thick, crunchy on the ends, and slightly creamy with the spicy mayo on top. The addition of the sushi rice gave for a filling lunch. The dish wasn't too salty especially with the cucumbers on the side which added a cooling effect. I will definitely order the dumpling bowl again and the price ($13.95) is a lunch special, I believe. AMBIANCE -- Simple design inside with tables and chairs. Calm atmosphere. Clean. SERVICE -- Quick and efficient customer service. The lady at the checkout counter was very friendly. We spoke about her being from South Korea. I will definitely love to come back to Hako to dine-in for dinner. Although I don't eat sushi, if you are a sushi lover, this restaurant is for you. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 44/250 total reviews in 2026 - 885 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 23 April 2026

It's a cute little space with easy order tablets so nice for something a little quicker than a full sitdown meal.
