This sushi place has been on my to try list for quite some time. I came here with a friend for dinner and was wowed with the happy hour specials. Each day has different specials but some days have $3 cocktails to $4 draft beers. When the food got there we were so hungry, I didn't get to take any picture but the sushi was delicious.

Garlic Tonkotsu Ramen with extra chonkatsu and extra egg.

The Garlic Tonkotsu Ramen is so good! I loved the char on the chonkatsu, and the broth with the chili oil is perfection. I ordered with extra chonkatsu and extra egg. The Sonomono salad with shrimp was refreshing-very good! Just stopping by to give my review while ordering more ramen.

I think they are gearing up for a remodel or what, but if you are looking for ambience.well.... However The food was amazing!!! Everything was well prepared and super fresh. The server was nice and friendly. Attentive but not intrusive. I took her recommendation for the 183, and the tempura cheesecake, and was not disappointed. For the price I think it's an incredible value.

Bento Box
Jeffrey R.

The first time trying this place out and we were welcomed to n with a friendly smile. They have an extensive menu but I was told to try out the bento box. There are so many choices. The one I settled on was Chef Choice of nigiri with your choice of a roll and two apps. I made all the right choices apparently. The peppered tuna slices were so thin and covered in crushed black pepper, tasted like bacon of the sea. The tofu agadashi was also deliciously crispy and tasty. The chicken Katsura was so crispy yet tender. Don't let this quiet, unassuming place fool you, the food is on point!

I must comment on their ramen. I was craving some ramen and sushi so my sister and I looked up some nearby restaurants, and this came up with high reviews. I was eager to see what the hype was about so we were happy that once we got to the restaurant, we were seated right away. We got the choose three sushi, and had spicy tuna, spicy crab, and Cajun calamari. Along with that I ordered char siu ramen with shoyu broth, which is a soy based broth. This was really good ramen, and the broth was very flavorful. I added some chili oil for some extra heat, and that raised the flavor profile of the dish. Overall, I enjoyed this greatly. As for the sushi, I didn't think the sushi was the best I've had, especially having eaten sushi in bigger cities. It didn't seem very fresh to me, and the only palatable one I enjoyed was the spicy crab. My sister also ordered char-siu ramen with tonkotsu broth, which is a pork bone based broth. She wasn't a fan of the broth and described it as tasting like water. After trying a bit of mine, she did like it.

I didn't give 5 Stars because of no mackerel fish. Otherwise, I'm experimenting with several other options. Hot tea drink. Lots of carry-out happening. I've asked for several octopus and tuna variations. All was REALLY good.

If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would. Everything we ordered was amazing. Don't let the upside full you. This is flavor town. Amazing!!!Super quick too

Bento box lunch portion.

Yum! I will be back. Great food and service. I had the lunch bento with teriyaki shrimp, pepper, tuna, tuna roll, and Hotz's.

Combo B: 3 special rolls + 2 regular rolls $65

Had the Tougen Combo B: 3 special rolls + 2 regular rolls, $65 & the soft shell crab tempura. Delicious & fresh sushi. Soft shell crab tempura came with tempura squash, sweet potato, onion, rice & sauce. Friendly & efficient service. Decor is lacking, but the food made up for it. Would definitely return.

I don't know where to start. I really love this place. My family and I decided to try this place as a last minute birthday dinner 2 years ago. And we have been coming back almost every month since then. Their sushi is unmatched. I have never had sushi of such a stellar quality and freshness. Not only is their sushi amazing, but also their hibachi is the best in town, we order the steak hibachi with noodles and veggies (pictured below). The lamb and squid skewers are melt in your mouth delicious!!! Please try the Caddy Roll, the Crazy Dragon Roll, the Spicy Salmon roll... or anything! I have yet to have a roll I dislike from this establishment. Also the salmon nigiri is delicious and totally worth every penny!! The staff is extremely friendly. The owner is friendly and interactive and really helps his guests have a good time. The wait staff is attentive and does a great job while handling a full house and taking mobile orders all in the heat of a pandemic. (Which might I add this restaurant has done and continues to do a great job with cleanliness and sanitation throughout the past year and a half during COVID). Definitely give this place a try if you love sushi or any Japanese cuisine!

Definitely try a bento box. It's a great deal with a ton of flavors and textures.

Sitting in a strip mall with some of the best BBQ, Indian and Farm to Table in the area, Tougen has a lot of pressure to help solidify this strip mall into the foodie destination it's destined to be. And you know what, I think they're going to do it! On our first visit, we enjoyed two bento boxes and some wasabi pork shumai. I tried the bento box #3 which comes with 7 pieces of sashimi, along with 2 appetizers and a roll. I tried the agadashi tofu and the crab sunomono, along with a shrimp and avocado roll. Our meals of course also came with the classic iceberg salad and miso soup, which were both very good. First up, I have to say the only "disappointment" was the wasabi pork shumai. I used the word disappointment loosely because it wasn't bad. I just didn't expect it to be fried and crispy, and expected a stronger wasabi flavor. As for my box, it was AWESOME. The sashimi was surprisingly fresh and well-cut. Like I could have just eaten a giant plate of the fish and I would have been very happy. The crab sunomono (shredded seafood and veggie salad) was refreshing and sweet. The agadashi tofu was fantastic. I'm used to flat pieces floating in sauce, but not here. Instead it was cubed and nicely fried, covered in bento flakes with the sauce on the side. And the roll? It was good! Next time I will try some of the specialty rolls and do a deeper dive into the sashimi offerings. The staff is super friendly and the space is super clean. There is no question I will be back. Even if you're not in that part of town, it's worth a trip to try out what I will say... is some of the best sushi in NW Ohio for the price, if not some of the best sushi compared to places a bit more expensive.

I used to love this place. I would go in here for lunch semi-regularly, often enough that two of…read morethe servers remembered me. I'd get a roll and a salad. The roll was amazing then. I had started telling my wife "I can't believe something can taste this good!" The only other place in Toledo I would have something about which I would say this about was Souk. But then sometime towards the end of last year, the roll changed. It was still pretty good, but not the superb thing I had come to love. So I stopped coming in so often, but still once in a while in the hopes that they would go back to how they used to make it. I'd given up, but today broke down and went in today as I missed it so much. But my hopes were dashed as the roll was just pretty good. So I'll have to start the search to find another place to get my fix for rolls. Another thing is that during this time frame is how most of the time the salad comes out with just a bare dribble of dressing on it. So I guess a plausible explanation for this places downfall may simply be from skimping due to food costs.

This is, without a doubt, the best place in the surrounding area for fresh, high-quality, and…read morefairly priced sushi. I'm consistently amazed at the quality and quantity in relation to the prices. It's a hidden gem that's not so hidden anymore--no matter the day of the week, the restaurant is always bustling with diners. I recommend making a reservation on weekends, as it tends to get busy, while weekdays are more low-key. The service is exceptional, and the drinks and bar offerings are fantastic. While wait times can be longer when ordering sushi--especially during peak hours--everything is made fresh with clear attention to detail. Although there are many creative and extravagant rolls on the menu, the Beast Roll remains a personal favorite. Topped with crab and shrimp tempura, it's an incredible value at around $12.50. The combination of quality, price, and service here is unmatched, making it the best bang for your buck. I've tried various dishes and appetizers, and I've been consistently satisfied each time. Having dined here numerous times, I've never encountered a single issue, which is a rare and impressive feat. Their takeout service is equally excellent.

This is our third time here, and by far it was our best experience. I think it was a combination of…read moreit being a slower night, there was hardly anyone else there. We came in as a large crowd without a reservation. There were seven of us total this time. Service was much faster! Was it because the restaurant was almost empty? Maybe! But what I will say is all of our sushi was perfect. The appetizers were hot, the options were endless. The server was on top of all of our drink and food request. The black pepper, tuna, the short ribs, and the crab Rangoon were some of the best appetizers I have had. Not the best for all you can eat, not the best for quick serve, but some of THE best. I am hoping it wasn't just that it was dead, but that they actually have a better rhythm and service pace. If I had had a bad experience this time around again, it probably would've been my last visit. I am looking forward to coming back to Koi again. We ordered probably 10 alcoholic beverages between the table, at least 10 appetizers, and around 12 sushi rolls. We never sat without food. Our table was bussed almost the second we finished our plates, and our drinks were always full. They must've heard all the complaints and the music was turned much lower, we didn't have to yell above what sounded like club music. There was not as much of the overstimulating strobe light flashy dance club effect. The restrooms were spotless, the sushi bar was well staffed.

So I'm always weary of AYCE places. 2 things I look for are freshness and the amount of rice…read more The server was nice and service was pretty good. However, what I didn't like was the sushi didn't really taste fresh, to me atleast. The first round of sushi, I ordered a few apps, the soft shell crab, miso soup, and ikura and squid nigiri, I also ordered an octopus sashimi plate, in which the pieces did not look nor taste fresh at all. I was glad it only came with 3 pieces. The spicy scallop hand roll I ordered came stuffed with tempura flakes mixed in spicy mayo, there were only 2 or 3 bites with discernible pieces of scallop... the second round was even worse with more rice and tempura flakes mixed in. The second round of my order I noticed considerably more rice in the order. The second round really just turned me off and I was ready to leave... I definitely did not enjoy this place, the service was good but the quality was lacking. Ambiance felt alittle messy or dirty. My table didn't even have soy sauce...

So yummy and even the next day its still so tender I can cut it with a fork. Get rice n veggies or fries with it for $10. Cant beat it. I just hate ordering from 2 different places for dinner but I still get it for lunch. Still worth checking out

I ended up getting a sandwich. I would've never ordered Pryor, but I am glad I did. You can tell they were out of a lot of meats, because the baked beans I got were pretty much a bunch of beans, floating and barbecue sauce and not even very many beans at all The mac & cheese was decent, but nothing to write home about. I had to add a decent amount of salt and pepper. But waiting in line for 20 minutes for quick order food just to find out almost all of it was gone is a bit ridiculous It's pretty unorganized and chaotic The condiment station look like it has been ransacked, so I ended up for going any pickles or onions due to fear of some weird foodborne illness The whole experience is just a bit lacking. I can pay less money and go down the street and be waited on and have a cleaner atmosphere.
