    Thai Milk Tea Large
    Angela L.

    Service here was great I was greeted upon arrival and my order was taken instantly. They stated it would take 10 minutes for the food to be ready and it was. I got two different types of sushi rolls and they were okay. I didn't think they were anything too spectacular. They weren't bad tasting I would def go back to try some other rolls. They are def filling. The Thai tea was not great ... I've had way better. Ambiance seems like a cute spot to come for lunch .

    The receipt

    So I was at the counter I wanted to emphasize that I wanted to make sure my taro milk tea had no ice as I specified on my order over the phone. The lady behind the counter then proceeded to tell me that I had order light ice in my drink and no ice in the other drink I had ordered.. (basically my ice requests swapped) it was important to me that it had no ice so I requested it be redone. Not only was my request denied, but I was also reiterated that my order was wrong only to find out mid drive after looking at my sticker on my drinks that my order has been exactly how requested. This is poor Customer Service, and a lack of attention to order executions.

    Atmosphere: 5 I love how open the restaurant is. There's plenty of seating available, but it was quite empty despite it being a Sunday afternoon when we went. Ordering through the touch order screen is easy. Not all the items on the menu has a photo though. Not that each item needed it, but from a user and design POV, it's inconsistent. Portion: 4 The portion is pretty standard, and the price is pretty on par with what I see in other restaurants. Specifically, I'm talking about the size of the drinks. In terms of ingredient portion, the takoyaki has very small pieces of octopus in it compared to the actual size of the takoyaki ball. At first, I thought there wasn't even any in it! For a pack of 6, it was pretty expensive for flavored dough with a tiny octopus. The size of the tapioca is tiny! The texture is also a bit hard so maybe it's a little undercooked. Flavors: 2 Everything about their food is sweet. I ordered my drinks with 30% sugar and it tastes like it was the regular level of sugar. They were super sweet. The crab soup was more sweet than salty. It was also very milky. I felt like I was drinking flavored milk rather than crab soup. Not much crab/seafood flavor either so I'm not sure what I'm paying for. I think that if you're ordering drinks, be sure to order it at 0% sugar. I am not sure that I'd go there again. My husband and I were in town and wanted to grab some drinks and snacks to have at home. After eating their food, my stomach feels heavy. Probably because of all the milk and sugar in their food. For having spent nearly $60, we were pretty disappointed with everything. If you're a fan of super sweet food, maybe this is the place for you. Otherwise, I'd advise the chefs to go 75% lighter with all the sugar. The staff was nice and laid back though.

    I think this is a nice little place. The exterior definitely has an old fashioned exterior but inside is clean and spacious. They had up seasonal decorations, which I appreciated. I got food to go which came in a reusable branded bag which I will reuse. I got the hibachi steak and online it asks temperature, I put medium rare, and it was so well done it was almost inedible. Like it was such a let down for a $20 meal, there should be a better attempt. The sauce coating did help drown out the overcooked taste. It comes with clear soup that was fine (it's never an exciting soup), a small amount of vegetables, decent noodles, and pretty bland fried rice. The carb heavy dish was most the meal. The other dish we got, scallop hibachi was pretty tasty, so that was a good choice for a dish. They have some other menu items, so I would come back, but the steak bring expensive and incorrectly cooked was a bummer, so I'd try something else but not that again.

    Fire House Poke Bowl
    Mayuri K.

    So excited to have hibachi and poke close by in Bloomfield. This place is really nice and clean from the inside. They have options to order multiple types of hibachi with meats including scallops, chicken, shrimp and steak. They also have build your own poke or preset poke bowls. I got the fire house bowl which wasabi mayo and spicy mayo with Kani, spicy tuna and spicy salmon with added mango. While the bowl was really good, it wasn't as spicy as I would have expected. Though I would get it again. Highly recommend this place!

    I stumble into this place by luck. Upon entering I was greeted by the employees a big smile and friendly. I ordered the Hibachi Shrimp meal, a California roll and two drinks. A Passion Fruit green tea and a mango. The food was fresh, the vegetables were cooked to Perfection the shrimp hibachi was delicious. The California rolls were fresh melting in your mouth. The drinks were refreshing soft to the palate. Not too sweet just perfect. The wait is great. They took their time cooking your meal But at the end you want to come back for seconds. Perfect handout placed inside a cute red souvenir bag. I will definitely come back. Thank you Marla-Rosa for such a beautiful smile and happy spirit.. No Problem digesting. .

    Back with another review of this local gem. I absolutely love seeing how much this place has grown and changed since it first opened up and I'm happy to see it's here to stay. My last review of this establishment was regarding the great food that they were serving but I have to turn my full attention toward the bubble tea. I am a big sweets guy and I also love drinks so when you put those two together you get these great teas. The taro milk tea was the best I have had to date. Some places have a weird taste to theirs and it sometimes can taste like shampoo depending on the establishment but so juicy made theirs exactly how I expected them too- greatness. The other tea was not mine but it was also really really good. I. will absolutely keep coming back here and exploring the menu.

    Nice Japanese food, thanks! We really enjoyed it. We ordered sushi & chicken with fried rice.

    I can taste the soy in the rice it's a bit salty. The general tso's chicken is not spicy at all the chicken is crispy and crunch how I like it. Didn't taste to fresh

    Sushi Burrito
    Janneise D.

    After living in Hawaii and eating some of the best sushi in the world, finally it happened. Finally found a place that make the sushi Burrito...omg soooooooo delicious. Ingredients are as fresh as possible. Parking is horrible. Make sure you order ahead and have someone that can run in and pick up the order or get it Door Dashed to you. I also had the tiramisu boba tea. I'll ask for little to no sugar next time. It was pretty good though.

    Salmon Lover Poke Bowl and Strawberry Milk Tea With herbal jelly and boba
    Stephanie L.

    Happy we came here! Everyone is really nice and helpful. We didn't try the hibachi yet but the poke is delicious! Lots of choices and all the ingredients are fresh and tasty. Salmon lover bowl was great. My husband made his own bowl. The bubble tea is good too! Bubbles are just right (not hard or mush). Herbal tea and red bean add ins are good too. (Husband got mango slush and I got strawberry milk tea). Can't wait to come back!

Steaks were just okay. Nothing to write home about. Got the Tomahawk, Porterhouse, and prime rib. It was just okay. No huge complaints nor compliments. Just average. Desserts were another major disappointment. We ordered every item. You know it's not great when everyone's favorite dessert was the vanilla ice cream which was clearly just store bought vanilla ice cream . Service was inconsistent. They were too concerned about clearing the table to the point they kept coming and trying to clear the table while we were eating. Then they would continue to bother us trying to take our dishes away. Relax! It wasn't like the restaurant was so full they had to clear our table for the next diners. Anyway a very disappointing experience overall.

The reservation required a credit card but I was able to mention a birthday. We were seated right away at a nice window table with a bench, which made it easy to fit everyone. We ordered a bunch of small plates and not a single miss: Tuna Crudo -- fresh, simple, and kid-approved Japanese Potato Salad with Ikura -- lightly creamy with a salty, briny pop Asari Clam Soup -- loaded with clams, miso; buttery and comforting Furikake Cottage Fries -- hot, round crispy ridges with a ketchup-y dip, very snackable for everyone Spicy Tuna Dip -- gone in about 60 seconds For the temaki (hand rolls), they recommend 5 per person. They do something a little different and honestly pretty fun. The fillings come out on flat sticks in a wooden holder (kinda like a taco stand), and you get boxes of nori (seaweed sheets) on the side. You slide the filling onto the seaweed yourself and eat it right away, so everything stays nice and crisp. It's a little DIY, but in a good way. While they offer 3 Temaki preselected sets, you can also order a la carte. I went with the Signature Set (tuna poke, XO scallop, coconut shrimp, salmon serrano, cucumber black sesame) and was really happy with it. We also got also got 2 sets of California rolls for the girls. My brother's Everything Bagel hand roll was a fun surprise. It tasted just like one. We finished with the Lemon Curd Churros- fresh, hot, and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. The curd was a little on the firm side, but still good. Everyone left full and delighted.

We really didn't care about that as we were enjoying our wine and each other. Matthew alone 5 stars! This was our first time eating at pastaRAMEN and we had heard a lot of mixed reviews. The pictures on-line make it look like a fancy place so we did dress up. When we arrived we quickly realized it's not what they advertise and what's in the pictures as it's actually a small run down dive spot. The biggest attraction must be its BYOB as the line was out the door with people holding 2-3 bottles of wine and beer. We were really hopping for the food to be great! Unfortunately we were disappointed causing the 2 star review on food alone. The quality and freshness was poor and everything was soaked in multiple sauces. We had the Cucumber salad that should have been called the pickle salad as there were more pickles than cucumbers. Also the calamari which is hard to mess up but they somehow did with 3 different sweet sauces on it. Next we had the Ramen which they are known for and it had Fried Chicken in it??? It was frozen store bought chickens they warmed up. The last thing we ordered was the black cod, this could have caused us to get food poisoning!! One bit each and we both had to take a sip of wine quickly to get the taste out of our mouths. We couldn't even take a second bit. They did give us free dessert because everything took so long which was very nice but that was our great server Matthew. Dessert was good! Another side note the bathrooms were absolutely disgusting with pee on the floors and all over the toilet in both bathrooms. We did have a good night because we brought a very nice bottle of wine. Too bad they didn't give you real wine glasses. It was more of a plastic cup. I don't see us ever going back.
