The whole place was really nice and had such a cute atmosphere. I loved the house-made Greek yogurt, the smoothie was really good, and the pastries were amazing too. It's definitely a whole vibe and such a nice spot whether you want breakfast, brunch, or lunch. Everything felt fresh and well made, and the atmosphere was super relaxing. Definitely recommend stopping by if you're in Wilmington!

We have tried this restaurant 3 times in total for the all you can eat we have to drive an hour…read morethere and back home. First time we had waited 1 hour for our first tray of sushi to come out and had to ask the bartender to check for our food while the manager was aware and kind of scuffed.second time we went was faster service but still had to wait 40 Minutes for our trays of sushi. Our last time going July 23rd was met by a dirty sticky table then we were asked to move to another and then they sat someone else there without wiping it down. we watched as a table of 9 was able to all be served there 4 course hibachi meal and their server check on them over 5-6 times within the time of us still just having our waters after almost an hour of waiting we did finally get our seaweed salad (cold) no needing to be cooked without silverware or chopsticks to the point where we went to the front and asked why it's taking so long and why we watched a whole table of 9 get finished and almost leaving and also the tables near us that arrived 20 minutes later than us get their sushi trays . They checked to see if it was done we continued to wait another 20 minutes now a total of 1 hour 30 minutes and finally got our first tray of sushi. The night continued to just be an exhausted wait to the point where we just wanted to leave and our appetite just wasn't there anymore . We have only continued going because they are the only ones that do our favorite sushi rolls with such terrible service each time that we know what to expect now and since there's such disregard from management they really don't care . We overheard our waitress saying to the table next to us our sushi is backed up (you guys know the drill here ) right after we had complained to the front desk about such a long wait and drive in total it's just not worth it . If you do choose to go here , expect a 30 min -1 hour wait to be seated , then once you're seated expect another 45-1 hour of wait on food and hoping you still Have an appetite after waiting so long .

So glad we have a very good Asian/Sushi office in Porter's Neck. I like that it caters to multiple…read moreAsian flavors, Japanese, Thai, and Chinese. The freshness of the food is evident in the taste. The food is also plentiful and shareable. We started with Blue Crab Ragoons which were freshly made. We then shared the seasonal Fire & Ash roll. When it came out I was skeptical of the "orange colored mush" on top but that is exactly what made the roll. The mush was tuna that was slightly smoked. All of the ingredients within the roll were very fresh and the roll was huge. The Angry Tiger was wrapped in white seaweed and included both spicy tuna, salmon, and shrimp tempura. Excellent. The General Tso Chicken had the right level of spice. The ending was the best. Tempura Fried Ice Cream which is a seasonal specialty. Vanilla ice cream covered in a dome of pound cake and fried topped with a drizzle of strawberry and chocolate. Service was terrific. My drink was continually refilled and the server was super nice. The entire staff was always looking out for everyone even if it wasn't their table. It was a lovely day so we ate outside. Pretty good seating outside. Inside has a cool vibe...coastal blues meet Asian design. Everyone leaves with boxes because you get the portions you pay for.

So far every appetizer and specialty role we have ever gotten from Bento box has been out of this world delicious. We never have sat at the bar in front of the sushi makers station, was awesome to see the process in action, and the chefs even overheard us talking about how good one of the roles he was previously making looked, so he asked if we wanted to try it and he made it for us within 60 seconds. You really can't go wrong with any of their appetizers. I am pretty sure we have had all of them by this point and we have yet to be unsatisfied with any of them. Must try!

Dim sum (meat shredded) was great. The sushi was fresh. My friend loved her scallops over ca role. I loved the soft shell crab roll. We both were meh about the veggie role with salmon. We also did the desert flight. SO great. Ambiance is nice and lots of places and nooks to sit/eat. Large groups can be accommodated and small intimate places to sit. Near Mayfair and plenty parking in the lot

Food here was very good, we got the poke nachos , house made tuna salad and the bubba bowl…read more Nachos were definitely the hit and a must order for us next time. This is a great place to stop in or grab to go as I know it can get busy on weekends. Parking can be a bit tricky if its busy and youre looking to stay but for takeout you can park in back and grab your stuff. We will definitely be back!

Our cook was fantastic and so was our waiter who was very attentive to our drinks and my little one's NEED for ketchup The staff was very attentive and nice. They accommodated us as soon as our party all arrived. The restaurant is also very large and some sections with non hibachi's tables are beautiful. Much more classy looking than the other hibachi restaurant in the area. The food was cooked in a much more healthy and palatable way. They season with lemon where applicable vs tons of the lard. This allows you to eat well vs feel sickly full. Not too much soy sauce on the rice too. Parking was a bit difficult but eventually you'll find something. We went at 6 which was a very busy time but little later seems to lessen the crowds. Good experience, good food - we will be back!

Nice little place hid in a strip mall. You order at the counter and they will bring it to ya. Seems most business is carry out as that was very brisk. Service was very friendly. Neat little place. The miso was out immediately while they made the poke bowl. The soup was tasty with quite a bit of seaweed. The poke bowl was a nice size and was as tasty as it was pretty. They have fountain drinks and some bottle drinks. I needed water to hydrate after the day's adventures. Definitely someplace to put on my will return list if I am back in the area.
