Bento bowl

Teriyaki chicken bento box
Karen B.

One of my former coworkers ordered from here frequently. It always smelled and looked good. I've now ordered from here a few times. I think you get a lot of food for a reasonable price. The meat is always delicious. The rice is pretty tasty, too. Wontons are yummy. Sushi is good. The steamed vegetables aren't great. In my opinion, they're similar to a moist lettuce/cabbage salad. Often they're busy. So, it takes awhile to get food. Service is acceptable. I need to try some other options. I always get teriyaki chicken.

The service was great, food is extremely well priced. One plate has me stuffed for the rest of the day. It is made fresh to order. A fantastic competitor to panda express. It would be amazing if this place got its own building, the ambiance would be so good.

Decent japanese theme fast food, easily and efficiently at the mall. In its category, quite good; tasty food, and no complaints at all about service. The steak bento box was generous enough to share a bit, although the meat was prepared a bit less crispy to my taste. All in all, good option.

Your classic mall offering that was too salty but hey, it was under $10. Took 5 minutes to prepare but unfortunately they hadn't prepared any bento boxes even an hour after opening. The bento box included vegetables, dumplings, 4-piece California roll, and a choice protein. None of the rolls were available and we didn't want to wait for 35 minutes. =ORDERED= *Chicken Dumplings: classic pan fried version with no sauce. Strangely didn't come with soy sauce, ponzu, or vinegar. A bit dry and the skin was thick but it was a decent appetizer. *Chicken Plate: came with vegetables and rice. The cheapest protein but the tastiest. Mild teriyaki sauce with steamed vegetables on top of a huge bed of rice. Very filling and the chicken was relatively tender. *Beef and Shrimp: came with vegetables and rice. The most expensive protein combo but was extremely salty. The beef was chopped too finely and came with a salty sauce that made it inedible. Shrimp was soft and small. Not worth the upgrade as the flavors were intolerable. Not bad if you stick to the chicken options but I wouldn't order anything besides those.

Love this place whether it be enjoying in the mall or at home through ordering through Doordash. You can always count on a great plate and it's fairly quick even if they are cooking it fresh. Always enjoy watching it be made as well. Definitely a great place to eat while shopping in the mall or even ordering to delivered at home.

Teriyaki Chicken and shrimps over rice
Brooke G.

I know, I'm reviewing a mall food court restaurant/stall. Here is why, I ordered on DoorDash and had no idea this place was in a food court as I ordered online looking up teriyaki. I ordered teriyaki chicken and shrimps with white rice, got the hubby teriyaki noodles with chicken and shrimps. Lemme just say this...the food was fresh and awesome! Rice was cooked perfectly, he loved his noodles! The packaging is amazing as well as the utensils supplied in a pocket bag with plum sauce as well as teriyaki sauce, one supplied for each meal along with napkins in there. The teriyaki sauce was great, not too sweet. The side veggies were so fresh! They give you extra teriyaki as well. Only reason for 4 stars has nothing to do with the fact this is in a mall, I just prefer white chicken meat and this is thigh meat. Otherwise, amazing. I still ate it all.

Sarku has re-opened with smart solutions to eating their hot grilled meals. Masked workers, sanitizer for guests, cleaning everything after each interaction, spaced dining area tables and masks required for the mall food court. I love the teriyaki chicken meal, still my favorite with veggies. Good prices still on their core meals and use the frequent meal card to get a free meal. The staff is fast and efficient. Even with the rancor of frustration that seems to pervade the public in our current crisis mode, the staff seems to handle things kind and quick. It's good to see the eating establishments making smart moves to re-open while maintaining good quality food and following local, state and federal health guidelines. A job well done. I will be back.

I have never had less than great food here...until today. I asked for a little bit more sauce over my plate, and the employee said, "It's going to be too much!" as he slopped 3X the amount of sauce I've EVER had all over the foam takeout plate. His demeanor was rude and uncalled for, and he was absolutely right...he DID put way too much on, just as he intended. Every bit of food is SWIMMING in sauce, and that's what didn't slop out into the bag. I had to clean sauce off of the foam plate before I could even try to eat it. I'm eating this food because I paid for it, but it tastes like straight sauce and nothing else. I am EXTREMELY unhappy with the service and I don't ever want to go back if that man is working.

Sometimes you just have to eat at the mall. I like that you can get a yummy, relatively healthy meal here.

Mediocre at best. Paid $19.00 for two meals and no drinks. There was nothing special about this place. I'd have preferred Panda Express.

I was there for an hour and a half, most of which I was waiting. $29.99 for all you can eat, not too bad, but I won't go here again. Not if you want to wait and wait just to have your order served. And hope that it was put in and not lost. Horrible experience. 食事は良かったですが、サービスはあまり良くありませんでした。整理されていないようです。10分間、飲み物を手に入れませんでした。最初のチケットでは、注文した6つのアイテムのうち2つしか手に入れませんでした。次のチケットが紛失しました。私はそこに1時間半いましたが、そのほとんどは待っていました。$29.99で食べ放題です。悪くはありませんが、もうここには行きません。ご注文が提供されるまで待ちたいのであれば、そうではありません。そして、それが入れられ、失われていないことを願っています。ひどい経験です。

We decided to give it a go anyway and made our outing a culinary adventure, neither of us having supped at an all-you-can eat sushi restaurant. The staff were nice and spared little time in serving up our order. We started with Miso soup that was watery. The gyozo was dry and presented poorly. We ordered a variety of nigiri sushi and, whilst it filled the hole, it wasn't anything to write home about. The green tea ice cream was tasty. Before closing this review allow me to share that I'm a quarter Japanese, speak Japanese and lived in that beautiful country for 6 lovely years. If hungry pressed for time, we might, might return for a quickie lunch but we've definitely marked Sakura Sushi off our dinner list.

he Best Ramen I've Ever Had - Ramen Nation Delivers Perfection…read more If you're a ramen lover, Ramen Nation is an absolute must-visit. I've had my fair share of ramen, but nothing comes close to what I experienced here. From the moment I stepped in, the rich aroma of simmering broth and fresh ingredients set the stage for an unforgettable meal. I ordered their signature tonkotsu ramen, and I can confidently say it was the best bowl of ramen I've ever had. The broth was unbelievably creamy, packed with umami, and had that perfect depth of flavor that can only come from hours of slow simmering. Every sip felt like pure comfort. The noodles? Absolute perfection--cooked to the ideal firmness. They soaked up the broth beautifully without getting soggy. And the toppings--perfectly seasoned ajitama egg, crisp green onions, and a hint of black garlic oil--elevated the dish even further. Beyond the food, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was top-notch. The staff was knowledgeable and passionate about their ramen, making the experience even better. If you're in the area and haven't been to Ramen Nation yet, you're seriously missing out. This place isn't just serving ramen--it's crafting an experience. 11/10, will be dreaming about this bowl until my next visit!

A pretty unexpected and relatively cheap find in East Mesa! We got the menus a few months ago at…read moreour house when the restaurant was just opening. After reading a couple of the reviews back then, we weren't very enthusiastic about trying it, but the reviews seemed better so we gave it a shot and it was a good experience. We ordered crab rangoons, chicken dumplings, veggie spring rolls and two seafood ramen bowls with miso broth (after we confirmed that the broth has no pork at all). My husband picked up the order within about 20-25 minutes of ordering. The bill was about $45. Everything tasted good. All three appetizers were in a paper bag together and the sauces were on the side. Favorites in order would be: chicken dumpling is the best, then the crab Rangoon then the spring rolls. The ramen bowls had very good flavor. The miso broth worked really well with the seafood and the toppings and wasn't thin or watery. The seafood mix was imitation crab, shrimps, and muscles and we found a seasoned egg hiding in the broth which was a nice "free" surprise. The toppings were bamboo shoots, corn, green onions and bean sprouts as well as sesame seeds. All in all, a good restaurant with a solid 4 star take out experience. We will be retuning when we want a quick ramen fix in the area. Next time, we will try the spicy beef ramen with miso broth.
