    Lacking but it's what you'd expect from food from the food court. Everything is about average for about $10.

    Sarku Japan at Columbiana Centre in Columbia is a great place to go for delicious and fresh Japanese food that is well prepared. I really like the selection and prices that they have available here. Good experience every time I have been here.

    Very, very generous portion. Good value for the money. My son ordered the teriyaki chicken which was served with fried rice, grilled vegetables and lots of teriyaki sauce. You can watch them cook your meal in the grill.... Get this in the to-go box, since you won't be able to eat it all in one meal! This is one of the favorites when we go to the mall.

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly, and the service throughout the meal was attentive without being overbearing. The food absolutely delivered. The Red Lobster Roll and the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice are at the top of my list--fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Everything came out in a timely manner and tasted just as good as it looked. Overall, great atmosphere, excellent service, and consistently delicious food. I'll definitely be back!

The actual location is very vibrant with an open floor plan that allows a lot of light ...now with the food ... I'll start by saying whoever made the sweet t needs a raise .... The menu is a lot but a good type of a lot with many choices. I ended up getting the Mr. ALLI-G Roll and the Red Snapper Bowl. Well welll well ... yelp family this Alli-G Roll we better than expected lol ... fried to perfection. Also the gator wasn't over cooked ... you can tell the preparers take their time and every dish has a different touch of excellence. Now for the Snapper Bowl .... I highly recommend ... the food bowl was delivered and I could still se the steam which I loved ... all the veggies were fresh fresh you could taste it. The snapper was amazing also. This spot leaves the extra seasoning up to you ... BUT your table has a bottle of yum yum sauce and you don't have to keep asking. Most importantly they are not stingy on the portions. I had half of my sushi rolls left and half of my bowl. Kudos to the staff also with the recommendations and setting the expectation of the dishes. They also worked as a team ... one waiter didn't see our drinks on the table and immediately asked if we put our order in. This was def worth the 35 min drive from the other side of town be sure to check them out. And another round of applause for the staff. I'll be back SOON .

    It is still the best sushi bar in the Southeast. They have the largest variety of fresh fish and…read moreother seafood, but they also make traditional chicken and steaks. The owner / chef Ryo takes care in what he's making and shows great pride in his finished product and it tastes great too. He gets fish that other restaurants do not have access to or have chosen not to purchase. I have seen flying fish, jellyfish, fresh Cobia, fresh Spanish mackerel, live clams and scallops and other seafood that you cannot obtain anywhere else. If you are looking for the best sushi in the area, you don't need to go anywhere else. You can go anywhere and buy a California roll but that is really not what I would consider sushi that's like going to Ruth Chris steakhouse and ordering a hot hot dog.

    The fact that I'm the only Asian customer at this place says it all…read more I ordered Inakaya Fried Chicken, which is a split bone chicken wing per their menu. I was given chicken nuggets and told they don't have chicken wings... Glad I found their menu online to prove I wasn't crazy. Everything is either overcooked, dry, or super salty. No idea why this place was even packed. Sushi rice was dry. The chicken nugget thing mentioned above was overly dry and salty. Tonkotsu Ramen was overcooked. Either they chose the wrong type of noodle or let it sit forever before serving it. The two slices of meat that came with the ramen was maybe from pork chop meat? Usually it's made with cha shew meat or pork belly. Two super lean and dry slices of meat made the bowl look like a joke. The noodle was salty enough that I don't even want to try the broth. Edamame was okay. Other than the fact that they don't look appetizing, the shell was brownish and many bean pockets (if you know what I was trying to say) were empty, that's probably the best dish on the table. If you want sushi or ramen or anything that's on their menu, do yourself a favor and please try to find it somewhere else.

    this is my new go to asian market in five points!…read more let's start off by saying, you have to push the red button to get in and out. idk if that's a japanese thing or not however, even in its simplicity, it's so dope. this is a dope market that has so many different japanese packaged treats. from fruit cream jelly candies to dried squid, chances are you'll find authentic japanese packaged goods here. don't expect many frills as it's a simple and small market but the true gem is the food they prepare fresh onsite. the owner is the absolute kindest person. they have bentos for you to order as well as dons but today i opted for shumai, takoyaki, and two different onigiri (tuna mayo and the ume which is japanese pickled plum). when i tell you this all hit!! they make the onigiri fresh to order and they have six different options for you to choose from. the takoyaki was so well balanced between sweet, savory and sour. the shumai were standard however still delivered. the onigiri was the star for me. i have missed the taste of japanese pickled plum (ume) and they hit it out of the park with this simple dish. if you've never had onigiri it's not super fancy or complicated. it's basically a filling of your choice, stuffed in a ball of rice and wrapped with nori. when done right, they are amazing! if you're in the mood for an authentic experience, please show the family over at furusato some love!

The karaage don is a fan favorite for a reason. Crispy and juicy chicken on a bed of cabbage, egg, and rice. The vegetable croquettes are always piping hot, fresh from the fryer. I'm not a fan of the bento boxes because you don't get much food. It's a couple pieces of meat with rice and some cold vegetables and maybe a slice of orange. Stick with the bowls and you'll be golden. The store also has a small selection of Japanese snacks, drinks, and sweets. I give this place a 4.9/5!
