Only wish it came with the usual ponzu sauce instead of the cold vinegary one they serve but we just used the warm tempura sauce instead. Also prefer a lighter off white ginger instead of the pink one they serve which looks like it has artificial coloring. Place is mellow which I like and the lady's are sweet. Will be back for an easy sushi fix.

Five Stars -- A Must‑Try in Downtown Salem!…read more My wife and I stopped by Akai Ramen yesterday, and this spot absolutely delivered. We ordered the shrimp fried rice, hot gemai tea, cucumbers, fresh salad, and the seafood ramen -- every single dish came out flavorful, balanced, and clearly made with care. The portions were generous, and the prices were surprisingly reasonable for the quality. The service was immaculate from start to finish. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming -- the kind of hospitality that makes you want to come back before you've even left. The decor is clean and modern with plenty of seating, creating a relaxed atmosphere perfect for a date, a family meal, or a quick bite. Yes, you do have to pay for parking in downtown Salem, but once you're inside, the food, the vibe, and the service make it more than worth it. If you're anywhere near Salem, I highly recommend stopping by. Akai Ramen is doing everything right -- great food, great people, great experience. Five stars all day.

Service was friendly but not terribly quick. The food was amazing. We started with crab rangoon, and I couldn't believe how packed with crab and cream cheese they were. Best crispy crab wontons I've ever found. We ordered two rolls, Bad Daddy and Oregon Duck. When they arrived (right after the salad), they were huge! Two of us barely ate more than half. The rest, we took home and had for lunch the next day. I loved the rolls and crab rangoon, both. Prices were very reasonable, and portions are generous. I'll happily return again.

The food is delicious and packaged very thoughtfully. We got katsu curry, Gomoku Udon, and chicken karage. All are fantastic. Curry has rich flavor and the katsu is perfectly breaded and fried. Dashi broth is seasoned well with an intense fish flavor. Noodles were cooked just right. Chicken karage was a little on the dark side, but still had great flavor. Service was prompt and he was the nicest gentleman! Blink and you might miss it, the location is pretty hidden in a parking lot. Definitely support this small business if you like Japanese cuisine, you will not be disappointed!

I've been here several times and everything I've ever ordered has been freshly made with fresh ingredients, and served with a smile. On this latest visit, I was here with a friend for lunch. We arrived soon after opening and since we had our choice of tables, of course we chose to sit where we could watch the rushing river go by as we ate. We both ordered the Shrimp & Veggie Tempura. My friend also ordered a side of steamed rice and I had hot tea. The tempura was perfectly deep-fried and the dipping sauce was very tasty. Our server kept watch over us without being overbearing, filling our water glasses and taking our used plates away quickly. The day we were here, the weather was in the middle of giving us an atmospheric river, which means it was pouring rain as we arrived. The restaurant overlooks the Silver Creek and on this day, it was crazy high and rushing like it was late for its own lunch or something. Good food, great service, fabulous company, and a lunchtime water show - couldn't have asked for a better meal experience!

We…read morestumbled across Momiji on Yelp and even though the it was a little pricy ($37 per person), we decided to give it a try. It was a small little restaurant with only five tables and the bar, but we were seated quickly. The food was pretty average, but the real issue was waiting for the order. We were seated at 7:19pm and last call was 8:30pm so we thought we had plenty of time. Boy were we wrong. Our first order came pretty quickly at 7:30pm. We finished pretty quickly because we were so hungry. We ordered immediately. The next order didn't come out until 8:07pm. A whole half hour. At that point we were still hungry so we ordered immediately after we finished because it was last call, but we were disappointed. We saw other people who place their order after us get their food before us. It's like they purposely try to stall until last call for people who do the AYCE. Their food also wasn't the best quality for their price. Unfortunately as excited as we were before coming in, we won't be back.
