Plenty of food for at least 2 meals lol. The food is consistent and good. The service is always prompt and attentive, price is about average for a Japanese steak house, 3 people without alcohol is around 90 bucks.

The rice and shrimp was flavored ok. I felt the vegetables and rice was cooked in to much oil or something. The prices were on average with most hibachis. The California roll was excellent. The sushi almost always is great here. Got no fortune cookie .

We had Alabama roll, pink lady roll, sumo roll, and 3 others I couldn't remember. Sumo was good,…read morepink lady was good too. The rest of the rolls were not good though. Ramen was real bad, calamari was ok, fried soft shell crab was good. Hibachi was salty but pretty good. Bottom line, I came for the sushi, and it mostly disappointed, but I wouldn't be opposed to trying again maybe I caught them on an off day or something.

Visited here after watching some influencers, and was excited to try it. First I must say upon…read morestepping in the door we were hit with a terrible smell. Influencers didn't mention this. Not exactly sure if we even wanted to stay because we both smelled it. Asked about it and was told it was the fresh fish, fresh sushi. The sushi is right at the door as soon as you walk in. What we ate: hibachi bowl, seaweed salad, calamari and a couple of other dishes. *Con: the smell when we walked in was a turnoff but other guest assured us it was ok they loved it there. Sushi was cut too large and was just dry...only tried one kind and just 2 pieces of it *Pros: hibachi was really good Waitstaff nice & efficient. Prices- very reasonable/ compettitive Would I go again...maybe once more Would I suggest it- No I really wouldnt

Happy hour here is definitely the way to go…read more The shishito peppers were definitely spicy and charred to my liking The lion king sushi was a great deal compared to their dinner prices. It was saucy but difficult to isolate the flavor of the spicy salmon and crab mix. I also got a house lime margarita which was delicious and simple. It is busy during these lunch happy hours so make a reservation or you can always sit at a bar! I will be returning but for the relaxed vibes and happy hour prices!

She's an amazing bartender--super friendly, helpful with recommendations and kept the space spotless. She turned a 4-star meal into a 5-star experience. * Fish Quality: The sushi and fish quality were impressively fresh. * The Rolls & Ramen: Both rolls recommended by the Bianca were well above average and the ramen exceeded my expectations. * The Rice (Shari): A bit of a letdown. The rice was too mushy/wet and the portion of rice per piece was way too large. * Pork Bao: Not worth the mention (or a photo). Skip this one. Verdict: 5/5 stars. Mostly thanks to Bianca's top-tier hospitality. Solid Japanese spot in the heart of Downtown.

It was pretty pack but was able to grab a couple of seats at the bar and was immediately attended to. I really loved the atmosphere of this place as it's in an old building and i always love the exposed brick in these restaurants. We ordered a couple of sushi rolls with me ordering the cyclone and my wife ordering a salmon roll and they were very delicious. I love to explore new restaurants and this was definitely a winner

To me it's a hole in the wall spot due to the location and located in a pseudo strip mall. Food came hot and delicious. Sushi was fresh and non fishy smelling and taste. Tasted very clean. Come try this place out. I will definitely come back again when I pass through. I urge yall to give them a shot. It's a small mom and pop restaurant and it'll be a shame if this community loses this business.

Shiki is a place I have frequented often when staying in the nearby hotel. I have really liked…read moreeverything we have tried there. My go-to is usually the Shiki fish. I love the sauce that comes with it! I have also had a great yuzu margarita there, which I would recommend if you want a cocktail! My most recent order was the Super Crunch Roll. I got this to go, and I picked it based off of previous Yelp reviews. It was delicious but didn't necessarily blow me away, especially for it to be ~$17. It left me feeling hungry, whereas I usually feel quite full from a sushi roll. They have a lovely outdoor patio for whenever the weather is nice. They do allow you to bring your dog to sit with you! Service can be hit or miss at times, but overall, we have had great experiences. They have a HH 4-6 Thursday-Sunday, which is nice if you can make it then. It includes 1/2 price appetizers, $5 cocktails (marg, mojito, cucumber collins, and mule), beer, wine, and sake. I attached the menu for this. I believe the HH and lunch special pricing is only offered for dine-in.

Came here for lunch and had a really great experience. Ordered the vegan ramen, which was honestly…read moreone of the best bowls of ramen I've had. The broth was very flavorful, and for once, this bowl was huge, so well-worth it. The atmosphere in the place is clean, modern, and comfortable. Hence, it would be a great spot to sit down for a meal. Additionally, the place wasn't too noisy or packed, which made the lunch atmosphere relaxed. The service was what really stood out to me: Upon entering, I was greeted and the staff regularly checked on me to see if I needed anything. They even refilled my drink before it was empty, which I appreciated since I like sipping on soda while I eat. Because the portion size was so big, they even packed my leftovers into a to-go box for me, so that was nice. The food tasted really authentic. I went to Japan last summer, and their egg tasted almost exactly the same. In general, I felt this was a nice lunch and that I would definitely come back here.

I'm wondering if it was my fault for not ordering hibachi from the demonstration grill, but I was thinking since the restaurant was empty I was going it a service ordering from a table, but my soup and salad came out after my hibachi meal. I think the waiter forgot about it because I had to so if it was still coming. When it did come, the soup looked like mostly water (see photos) and the salad was over drenched in dressing. I've never seen that much dressing in a salad my entire life. The meat wasn't hot but the fried rice really saved the day. It was salty, but I prefer mine that way. I like the location of this place so I'm hoping that next visit will be different.
