Several sushi options, deep fried sushi on the foil.
Dave F.

Favorite stop on the way to/from RIC. This place is amazing food n service. Really enjoy the fried pickles, sushi n dumplings. We tried several deep fried sushi, my first for deep fried. It was so tasty and nice portions. There is so many options, american comfort food, hibachi. Service is awesome!

The jalapeño appetizer was awesome.

I like this place, its unassuming but don't let the appearance fool you. I've had the sushi as well as stuff off the regular menu, its all good.

Fried dumplings
Quijana B.

Sun's Cafe has everything you need. You need breakfast? They have breakfast. A burger? Sure thing. Sushi? No problem. Liver and onions? Yup, got that too- but not until after 11. Located in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by rolling fields, ribbons of highways, and ever growing pockets of new housing, Sun's is at the crossroads of old and modern day America. A photo of the original building (still there, but now just a small section) hangs above the register. The owner told us that the photo was from the 30s, and I'm positive that this restaurant will stay exactly as it is until the family that runs it decides that they need a change. Because we are exactly the right group of people for such an eclectic menu, we ordered breakfast with a side of fried dumplings and sushi. We were going to order fried pork chops, but since it was before 11 our request was denied. There might have been some friendly attitude involved, and it might have made us decide to time our next visit for lunch or dinner. The fried dumplings and sushi were good. The dumplings were deep fried, but not overly greasy. The sushi and sashimi were not evenly cut, but were generous in portion and were fresh. The hamachi was served a bit colder than I'd have liked, but we were ordering it during breakfast hours, so I can't be upset. Breakfast was everything that makes me happy with a place like this. Light pancakes, crispy bacon, and creamy chipped beef. I'm positive that the chipped beef was not made in house, but it was served with just the right toast to sauce ratio. Our friend ordered the ribeye and was happy with his thinly sliced steak and eggs. Honestly, the only thing I wish Sun's had on the menu are a few hot Asian dishes, even if it was a rotation of daily specials. I'd love to be able to add an order of ramen or bulgogi to the diversity that already exists at my table.

Jalapeños + California Roll with Eel and Tuna

New to the area and was in need of a new Sushi spot. Found this place on Yelp and heard great things, so I decided to give it a try. WOW! I am so glad I did. The food was excellent! Mission accomplished: I found my new sushi spot!!!

Gavin B.

The sushi is great. Well made and very fresh. It's the best sushi place I've been to in va and will continue going here when I can. The staff is very friendly,and the lady that ownes the place always remembers me even after I'm not in the area to stop by for months. Highly recommend this place to anyone that enjoys sushi.

Jalapeños stuffed w/ cream cheese and tuna, smoked salmon w/ avocado roll, cuttlefish and octopus. First time here and large sushi menu

Great food! Doesn't look like a sushi place but a must try. The jalapeños w cream cheese stuff tuna was awesome!

We live in New Kent and love sushi. We were skeptical but excited when the restaurant around the corner started serving Sushi. We tried it and loved it. Now it is the only Sushi restaurant we go to. Love the Jalapeño poppers!

Veggie fried dumplings
Corinne B.

The sushi is amazing. We tried the Orange Blossom, Calamari Roll, Krispy Roll and Veggie Dumplings.... plus plus!! Everything was incredible plus they are super nice. Can't wait to come back to try more.

See all

Scott's Addition

Solid vegan options, hip atmosphere, great service!…read more The vegan bento box for $22 was SO MUCH FOOD: miso soup, ginger salad, a tonnnn of fried tofu, rice, veggies, 3 dumplings, and a vegan sushi roll! We also got the fried tofu appetizer and edamame and we now have so many leftovers! Only 2 complaints: * so maddeningly loud in there (next time I will try to make a reservation for outside) * they should have a few more/cooler vegan sushi rolls

The menu is huge and has such a broad variety, but it was actually to the point of being…read moreoverwhelming. They have sushi, stir fries, pho, and more. Everything sounded good and everything I tried had excellent flavors. Prices are about what you'd expect. Tons of variety in sushi alone, but the menu is so huge that it can definitely be overwhelming. I'd recommend choosing one section and committing to choose from within it because it's very overwhelming otherwise. It's quite small inside, so you'll be very close to the table next to you. It's definitely not the place if you're bothered by close proximity to others or if you are uncomfortable conversing in close proximity to the strangers next to you. If you have any issues with strange people being near you, you may not be able to tolerate this place. I really loved the ceviche with the soy sauce, green onion, jalapeno and sesame seeds. It was very flavorful! This particular ceviche was in a different place on the menu. Just a heads-up, I had a great waiter who informed me that the tamago has gluten in the binder, so definitely bear that in mind if you have gluten issues, as opposed to simply reading the menu and judging by that. The Tina roll made gluten-free was delicious. Somehow, there's gluten in the spicy sauce so, unfortunately, that's part of the dish. I really would've enjoyed the spicy sauce on the sushi, but appreciated the waiter's forewarning that the spicy sauce has gluten so that I didn't get sick. As for service, it was exceptionally warm and welcoming staff, very genuine. The waiter was excellent, and he even gave a recommendation without waiting to be asked, which I love, and his recommendation for the soy-based ceviche was wonderful. It had a surprising and very much-appreciated bite from jalapenos. The more traditional ceviche had a clear sauce with sliced jalapenos, and that was good too. I love that this place isn't afraid of punchy spice. There are a number of spicy options, and they're never dumbed down to please everyone. The fish didn't taste quite as clean and fresh as I'm used to, but the flavors in all of the dishes were amazing! No one got sick or anything like that, but the flavor of the fish itself could've been better in that sense.

We don't usually go for all-you-can-eat sushi since we prefer ordering à la carte, but this spot…read morewas a nice surprise. Service was quick and laid-back, which made our lunch nice + easy. The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and nicely arranged. We also tried the miso soup and steak fried rice, both were good additions to the meal. The restaurant itself was clean and comfortable, making it a good option when you want variety without sacrificing quality. Definitely a place to consider when the AYCE mood strikes.

My daughter and I had Qmi for the first time last night. I was impressed by how large the…read morerestaurant was and how full of customers it was and more coming in behind me. I loved the tapestries on the walls and the Happy birthday song they played for a customer. I was sure the food would be great! My first interaction was with the manager/hostess. We made a take-out order. She sat us at a table and my daughter, and I chose from a large variety of dishes. only one gentleman came to ask for our order but, when we said it was take-out, he abruptly left us. He later kept brushing me off when I wanted to ask a question. He was not outwardly or aggressively rude. Just very dismissive. In about a 25-30 wait, I got to see how the management treats their employees. A young girl, only 17 (I asked) had made a mistake ringing up an order. The patrons had paid less than their bill and the manager/hostess was yelling at her, right in front of all the patrons standing by the entrance along with me and my daughter. The young lady offered to pay for the mistake. She retreived what money she had but, the manager/hostess said it was not enough. The young girl said she didn't have the full amount. can she bring it back later? No, the manager wanted it right then. Never mind that the patrons paid for MOST of the meal. She was forcing this girl to pay the FULL amount of their order. Through all of this, the young girl kept her composure, never raising her voice or acting out or being disrespectful. I was very impressed with her, I'll call her "K". I instructed the manager to return the girls money, and I would pay for the mistake. A young girl, just beginning, and this is how she is treated. In front of other customers. In front of lots of staff. In front of everyone. I made sure her money was returned to her before leaving. Somehow, I felt she would not get her money back. It was clear the manager had no intention of giving it back to her...until she realized I wasn't leaving until she did. I will not be patronizing this restaurant a second time. then, to add insult to injury, my food, which cost over $40., was not good. My sushi was poorly made. My daughters poke bowl looked like a plate of vomit, and tasted like there was no seasoning in it, from what she was willing to eat. Highly disappointed in this place. I had such high hopes.

Food was well prepared, tasty, fresh and very satisfying…read more Service was every bit a compliment to the food quality. Priced competitively but value met my expectations.

Thai Tara is our hands-down favorite restaurant. Not only in Williamsburg, where we recently moved,…read morebut nationwide. And that isn't mere hyperbole. Before we moved to Williamsburg, we visited the area for vacations, and Thai Tara is alway the first place we go for dinner and the final meal before leaving. Whether you crave the freshest Sushi/Sashimi or you prefer authentic Thai street food, you will find it here. We have traveled to Bangkok many times, and from first hand experience can say without exaggerating that the Chicken Sate or Fresh Rolls are as authentic as you might find at the street markets in BKK. The Tom Kha and Tom Yum soups are a treat. The extensive selection of warm Thai dishes like Pad Thai and Penang Curry are outstanding. We often include a hand roll or a selection of Sashimi from the Sushi bar in our orders. Never has the sushi bar prepared anything less than perfect. And if you want a real treat, finish your meal with a Mango Sticky Rice. Although small in size, it's surely is a dessert of the gods. An extensive bar is also on hand at Thai Tara for your favorite hand mixed cocktail, umbrella drink or beer, including Thailand's own Singha, a refreshing lager. Plan to arrive early because this cozy (but not small) place gets very busy, especially on weekends. Parking can be tight. But even in the busiest evenings, service is always prompt, attentive, and with a Thai smile.
