    Beef pho
    Caity C.

    We decided to try this place on our latest trip to the Outlet Shoppes of the Bluegrass. The restaurant is located in the outlet mall, in the old Johnny Rockets location near Vans (so don't go looking near the food court). We were seated right away, as the restaurant was fairly empty (1 PM on a Saturday). The place seemed clean, and we were waited on quickly. The lunch menu was a little confusing. There was a teriyaki or hibachi option with a Pick 2 listed, followed by different proteins. When we asked about it these seemed to be separate items, but we think we ordered the teriyaki chicken. It came with veggies, a choice of fried or steamed rice, and four pieces of sushi. The sushi was very fresh and mild- I'm not a big sushi fan but I liked it. I got the beef pho, which was excellent. Huge bowl with delicious broth, tons of noodles, and several big pieces of tender beef. There were a lot of sauce options on the table, including soy, hoisin, and sriracha. I added some lime and sriracha to my soup, and it was perfect. One of the best bowls of pho I've had. We had a great experience, but it was a little pricey- $50 for two entrees, a soda, and an egg roll. Pretty steep for lunch. I'm not sure how well this restaurant will do at this mall- sit-down restaurants don't seem to last very long here. If this restaurant was in my neighborhood I think it would be a hit, but I'm not sure how good of a fit it is for the outlet mall.

    I had the bagel roll. It was great! Service was quick. Not packed at all on Black Friday and the bathroom lines are much shorter here!!

    They closed. I was never able to eat there before they closed. I tried to eat there 4 or 5 times. They are now a Mexican restaurant.

    The food was just not up to par. When my northern hubby says it has no flavor and he needs soy sauce, you have to be pretty bland.

    I come here just for the sushi! I truly could not write enough about how delicious the sushi here…read moreis. I've been going to Samurai for date nights and friend dinners for years and every roll is huge and fresh, and I always have great service. Good sushi is hard to find in land locked Kentucky! Samurai must have great sources for their fish because the freshness is very apparent, every time I go. Favorite rolls: Mark's Roll, Happy Sunday, Texas Roll, Barbie's Favorite, Sakura Roll, and Midnight Roll but truthfully, you cannot go wrong. We heard the story of our favorite roll! The Mark's roll was named after a very kind soul that was a friend of the restaurant that sadly passed away. He loved spicy food and was the light of the room, so the fried jalalpeno and flaming plate make the perfect homage to him. The love and care Samurai has for their customers and the community is unmatched! Come cute with 15 people, or in your pajamas with your bestie. The atmosphere is very welcoming; casual but romantic still. Either way come ready to EAT!

    I won't be back--and I wouldn't recommend it…read more I ordered their best available Cabernet . The first glass was good, I understand this is not a wine bar so no complaints. The second was completely off--overripe, heavy blackberry notes, clearly oxidized and not the same quality wine. This is what happens when a bottle has been open too long. When I pointed it out, instead of addressing it professionally, the server repeatedly insisted it was from the same bottle and argued with me. That's not just poor service--that's dismissive and borderline insulting. I wasn't trying to get out of paying. I explicitly said I would pay for the glass and not drink it--which I did. I left the full glass on the table. At that point, the appropriate response would have been to move on. Instead, the argument continued. For context, I spent 22 years in the wine and spirits industry. I know the difference--but frankly, anyone could have smelled and tasted how off that wine was. I still paid and tipped 20%, but the issue isn't the charge--it's the way this was handled. Arguing with a customer instead of listening is unacceptable. Do better.

By only our third visit, our waiter asked if we were "the usual," which honestly says a lot about the kind of experience they create here. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The spicy garlic edamame is excellent, and the bao con chicharron appetizer is absolutely worth ordering every single time. For entrees, we both love the arroz chaufa with steak. Packed with flavor, cooked perfectly, and one of those dishes you immediately start craving again later. We also really appreciate that they have a relaxed, inviting vibe throughout the restaurant. Our 6-year-old loves the steak bites and fries, which makes dinner out a whole lot easier for us. It has quickly become one of our favorite spots. Hope to visit again soon!

    I am sorry to have to write this review since my husband and I have loved Rikishi since it first…read moreopened. Delightfully fresh ingredients, innovative rolls, personal service, all to a boomer rock soundtrack -- we had found our sushi dream for Oldham County fulfilled! The Covid period took a lot of good restaurants down but we kept hoping Rikishi would stay afloat. It did, but with supply chain issues and lack of staff. Which I think brought about the subpar Rikishi that we initially fell in love with. The location of Rikishi has not changed but so much has that we hardly recognize it any more! Very little of Rikishi's table service is personal anymore. You are seated and asked to fill out an order form for your drinks, appetizers, and dinner. No one showed up to personally take an order but to pick up your form. We were pointed to the form a couple of times before we ever got someone to just bring drinks. The old Rikishi was not at all like this! Tonight, we ordered two reliable staples -- miso soup and squid salad. The best parts of dinner were then over as the rolls we ordered did not satisfy as usual. The spicy tuna roll tasted like a watered down version of their usual -- not fresh, not full flavored, something was just off. Watered down is the best we could guess. We were asked to scan a QR code to pay for dinner. At that point, in my mind, we had taken our own orders, received subpar sushi, and then proceeded to process our own check. We always tip graciously but, this time, we asked ourselves what we were tipping for -- service? Again, I hated to write this review. My only hope is that the owners care enough (and have the resources) to go back to their original formula of great service, fantastic sushi, and that wonderfully fun classic/yacht rock soundtrack. Rikishi was our favorite; hope it will be again someday!

Alex, the owner stopped by to check on us and see how we were doing. Our food was really good. There was Chicken Teriyaki and Beef Boxes that had vegetables and rice. You could choose a Beef, Tender Chicken Teriyaki or Shrimp box. Choice of white, brown, or fried rice, or noodles. Side options: Gyoza, veggie, soups, rolls or Rangoon. A small salad with Ginger dressing came with the Bento Box, also. There was a lot of food in that meal. They also had Teriyaki Chicken or Steak Bowl with teriyaki sauce over your choice of white rice, brown rice, fried rice, or noodles. They had Orange Chicken, Sesame Chicken, General Tso's Tofu. There were also Kid's Meal choices. In fact Bento's menu was so large, I would suggest going to their website menu and checking out their menu. You'll love it. Robyn

Food quality was fresh and tasty. Restaurant was clean. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Air conditioning was cold!
