Good food, clean environment, Fast service, nice wait staff. Hours are inconvenient but when you're good like they are you can do that I guess.

a bowl of soup

If it's ramen season then that's your reason to check out this gem in Lexington. Hands down the best ramen spot in town and anyone who says differently needs their taste buds checked out by a doctor. This is an authentic experience with ramen that hits the spot. The spicy kimchi ramen is a must try if you like heat. Everything is cooked to perfection and every bite you can tell that a lot of thought and care went into making the dish. The portions are wonderful. The best way I can put it is that it is ramen that fills your stomach and your soul.

SAM sushi bowl with tuna

I've gotten takeout from here twice now, the first as a poke bowl and the second was spicy vegetable ramen with an egg. The poke bowl I really enjoyed. It had a ton of toppings that meshed well together with a good serving of fish. I will be back to try another bowl and some sushi. The ramen was mediocre. I would like to preface this with the fact that I'm coming off of 8 months in jersey where I was able to enjoy the best of NYC ramen, so I have high expectations. I'd give the spicy miso broth an 8/10 and the noodles and toppings a 5/10. I like my bamboo shoots crunchier and my lotus roots less crunchy. Noodles were just average. Overall experience here with staff has been great - my ramen was nice and hot still by the time I got it home, and they have a table to wait at if your take out order is not ready when you arrive. Would definitely recommend for poke, would recommend for ramen if you aren't picky, and i will return soon for sushi.

Located behind Cheddar's off Man O' War, tucked away in the shopping mall.. The roll was alright but wasn't my favorite. The service was attentive and the prices were moderately priced. They have a huge selection of sushi rolls, ramen and other goodies in the menu.

My son and my self went for dinner tonight and he had miso ramen bowl and sushi and I had two rolls myself, I have never been but it was very good and they have a large selection to choose from, I would definitely go back I think it's better than the sushi/steak house that's down the road. The staff was very polite and the restaurant was very clean along with the restroom, If I could give them more than 5 stars I would.

BAO - where have these treats been all my life?!

Came here for lunch and tried the Pork Chashu BAO - it is addictively delicious! Started with the Seaweed Salad and Sashimi which were both fresh and perfect. Run by an adorable husband and wife team, he creates the beautiful sushi items and she does the cooked items and runs the front of the house. Today's special was (from what I could understand) Curried Pork over Rice with a salad. There are also Sushi specials too. Since I wanted to try the BAO, I didn't have room for the specials. It's pleasing to see word is spreading, as they were pretty busy for lunch. Looking forward to many great meals at this place!

This place is one of the best sushi places in Lex for the price. It just doesn't have a ton of reviews due to its location in Hamburg

This is my second time at Tachibana as I came here two years agos according to my local friend who…read moreis regular here. Impressive with the authentic decor upon arrival. The wood decor made me feel like I'm in Japan. Great service and the head chef came to ask for feedback from us! Foods are so fresh, authentic, reasonable prices. I love my bento boxes. A bit of everything. Salmon are tender and not fishy at all. Beef are so umami. Sashimi is so fresh. Tempura is the correct crispiness & not oily. Our next table clients were all speak Japanese! So, we knew we are chosen the best Japanese restaurant due to their authenticity. Will come back here everytime I'm in LEX!

First time dining here. I was staying at a near by hotel and it was within walking distance…read more The restaurant itself has a cool vibe. It felt very authentic waking in. I ordered some hot sake and green tea to start off. It was frigid outside. The seaweed salad I ordered was good but the miso soup that I didn't expect that came with my order was some of the best I've had. The other salad that came with the soup wasn't great. It honestly had little flavor, but that's ok because everything else was good so far. I ordered some sushi and a beef dish for the main course. I thought the dragon roll, fried shrimp tempura roll and an eel roll sounded good tonight. I also ordered the Yakiniku beef stir fry dish. I know what you're thinking, but I haven't eaten all day. So back off! lol Everything I had was delicious. Lots of flavor. The fried shrimp roll was my least favorite, which is unusual since that is one of my go-to rolls. As for the service, she wasn't very attentive. I had to get the sushi chefs from behind the bar to help me a few times. It wasn't busy, but she may have put the priority on the bigger table she picked up. I'm a good tipper so this may have been a mistake. No worries...don't get yourself all worked up, I'll get her taken care of. Overall, I think tonight's meal experience was a hit. I'm happy with most everything I tasted. I would definitely recommend and come back here again.
