The broth is different with every order and nothing tastes the same. I've always just been a pho girl, but this place has opened me up to a whole new experience. Service is amazing and so attentive. I felt so special when one of the ladies recognized me after just 3 visits. And do NOT skip dessert the cotton cheesecake is to die for! You'll want a whole one to take home. This restaurant is definitely one-of-a-kind. My new favorite local hangout!

The restaurant was clean and very well decorated. The different signs and wooden decor made me think about how a shop would be internationally. We forgo an appetizer because it's just lunch and I'm sad with how good the entrees were. I asked for a recommendation for something spicy and the waitress said the spicy beef ramen was her go to. And it was perfect. Husband had the chicken katsu and after explaining the sesame seed sauce his meal was delicious. He stated "nothing I had wasn't great". 10/10 from me. I appreciate it and will be back.

The black garlic ramen was very bland. The soup needed more salt. The egg was slightly overcooked. I liked that the ramen came with a lot of toppings. I just wish the ramen had more flavor. The noodles were ok. They were not fresh noodles or anything special. Overall, I think every dish needed more salt.

Well, there is nothing quite like having your first sushi experience after Japan be at a revolving…read moresushi place in a strip mall in San Antonio! But hey, this is what the birthday girl wanted, so this is what she got. We came here after a full day at Six Flags, starving, and hunger definitely made for the best sauce. One thing we have to say about Wild Goji that is A+++: they have Hitachino yuzu ON DRAFT!! Hitachino is one of our favorite breweries, and we had tried this version when we are in Japan, and could not believe our luck finding it here! It's worth the price of admission alone. As for the food, well, it is what it is. Honestly, it's not terrible, but you can tell you're not getting the creme de la creme (unsurprisingly). We mostly stuck to tuna and salmon, but we did appreciate their spicy garlic edamame (not spicy at all) and their spicy seaweed salad (slightly spicy). We ordered tempura that we had to send back because the sweet potato wasn't fully cooked. Some of the dishes on the conveyer belt definitely looked unappetizing (like the omelet roll) and since we were towards the middle-end of the restaurant, we had to wait a while for food to come our way. Service is minimal, but the atmosphere is boisterous because these kinds of places are fun. We were smart to make a quick reservation on our way from Six Flags because the place was slammed by the time that we left. Three stars, but it'll remain a fond memory celebrating our daughter's 9th birthday.

They change up the vinyls a couple times when we dined but they usually play the whole album. The food is more elevated than expected. The lobster was interesting because it came with this potato soup mash we never had before but it was pretty tasty. Lobster tail was cooked well but it was around $30+ and wasn't satisfying for a main entree. The Wagyu skewer was okay. We expected a fattier cut of meat but it tasted like normal steak to me. The sashimi bowl was good! Every piece of fish was fresh and unique. I really enjoyed it and it was a good portion size for a main entree compared to the lobster. The calamari is definitely a must try! We loved it and probably the best calamari we've had. Overall, we enjoyed the ambiance and service was great. But the menu is definitely a lot more elevated and for people with more "exquisite" tastes.

We didn't realize this place was a cousin of Shiro and owned by the same guy until we saw some similarities in their style, layout and menu but nevertheless, the food was still absolutely amazing. Even though the ambiance had some similarities, I'm glad their food options were distinguished because otherwise could have just gone downtown. You cannot go wrong with any of their food options. Highly recommend doing family style so you can get a taste of everything and all the different flavors. We started with the gyoza and calamari which were to die for and were not greasy at all. Pork ssam, wagyu, miso pasta and octopus all brought a little bit of their own element and flare to your palate that it's hard to describe unless you try it. Wagyu was just melt in your mouth delicious. Pork ssam and octopus had their crunchy texture and umami flavors. The miso pasta added a light refreshing touch to balance everything out but don't let it fool ya, the noodles will expand in your stomach. We topped it off with their yuzu cake. Our only disappointment was they were out of their other desserts but nevertheless everyone of us left full and happy. Would come here again.

My server Angelina convinced me to try the Kimchi Beef Ramen. The only issue is that I've had…read morekimchi once and wasn't a fan. I'd like to get into eating kimchi because fermented fruit products are supposed to be really healthy for your immune system and digestive. However, I have a bit of a sinus issue going on and decided to switch it up with the tempura chicken Ramen. She believed me when I said that I would come in next time and try it but today they're just giving me basically chicken noodle soup Japanese style. The ambiance is fun in a college game day way. Sakana Bar sits adjacent to UIW. they have these little Japanese flags in the ceiling that feel like college game day Bunting. They also have rivers of life on the ceiling that are constructed out of waves and wood and Japanese fabric prints in the color of water. There are even little water birds and water flowers on the river that runs along the ceiling. The interior is filled with representations of Japan in tree form. Really cute pink and blue trees that adorn the bar and the open kitchen. You can watch your food being made at the bar in the center of the restaurant. They even have seats if you'd like to watch sushi be made from scratch in House! The Ramen was fantastic. Exactly what I needed today. It wasn't too hot. It wasn't too cold. It was just right. It was very spicy. I had to add beef stock to bring THAT temp down, but wow! It was good.

The rice was bomb and the veggies were great too. The restaurant looks like a typical hibachi restaurant with regular table seating as well as the seating in front of the grill.
