I came here with two of my friends for lunch. Lots of seating area and pretty busy during lunch time. Very clean restaurant. Service was great! They cooked their meat perfectly, the only sad thing was how small the sandos were! $2 off their bentos during lunch time from 11-2:30 pm! read more

What a wonderful little restaurant! We've been looking online for Japanese flavours as we're pining for them and this didn't disappoint. The Tonkatsu Bento special was delicious. Beautifully presented in a round bowl on a bed of rice with a delicate and flavorful side salad. The sauce was on point and the breading crispy on juicy tender pork. The miso soup was also very good. I'm feeling a bit under the weather and was delighted to find a Japanese fizzy vitamin C drink (similar to the ones in 7/11 Japan) in the cooler. I'm waiting for my Strawberry sandwich, I'm very excited about that. read more

If you haven't been, you're missing out! It's been a while since I've been back but I went when they first opened and ordered their salmon bento which was delicious! They were out of it today so I tried something different and got their chicken katsu bento ($16) + miso ($2). Equally delicious and the crisp on it was immaculate! Imo it was the perfect amount of sauce ratio, not too much to make it soggy but enough to add good flavor and not have the dish be so dry. The gyoza was super tasty as well. I was so impressed that it had some ice skirt/dumpling lace on it since most places around this price point don't cook theirs this way. Someone here knows how to cook and it shows! I can't understand why it's not busy in here because their food is very good and the owner is super nice! The place itself is very cool, gives off chill izakaya vibes. If you're in the Plano area, please check them out! read more

Reasonable prices and a tasty bento. Bentos came with miso soup, gyoza, salad, potato salad, and a small group of vegetables as well as a main. I got the tonkatsu and it was great, comparable to the ones I had in Japan. I will certainly try the sandos next time. The miso soup was high quality. Edit: Returned and tried the Sandos with the Sandos sampler. They were all very delicious and honestly even better than the bento. I forgot to take a picture before devouring them all. read more

My review from Nov 2024: "A super cute place we found out had opened through TikTok. Partner and I have both been to Japan this year and found the flavors to be pretty authentic. Perhaps the bentos were a bit overpriced for value, but we were happy to eat that price to support a small business. I got yakiniku beef in my bento and partner got Tonkatsu-- both were good, but I personally thought the tonkatsu was better. We came for dinner so the sandwich and salad area was empty, but I think I would return to try them!" I've since visited last month and got a tonkotsu sando that I very much enjoyed. We come back often for these sandos! read more

My husband and I were so excited to try this place! It's located in a strip mall, which was a little unexpected. The only downside was the wait -- we stood in line for a while and then waited quite a bit for our food to come out. We were hoping for a quick lunch, but it ended up taking about an hour. That said, the employee was really nice and the food was great. We ordered the trio Sando sampler, and the egg Sando was especially delicious! read more

What a great spot! We were in the mood for Japanese somewhere around UTD and stopped in to Yokozuna. The restaurant itself is clean and inviting and we were greeted right away. We were advised that they had just gotten a bunch of orders so our service was going to be delayed. Since we had time, we went ahead and ordered. The food was excellent! We had the chicken Katsu Bento and the Chicken Katsu Curry and both were served hot and fresh. The breading was delightfully crisp and light with great flavors. Kudos to the young lady taking orders and serving the food. We saw some other guests not as patient as we were and she did everything in her power to assist them and maintained a smile and positive attitude. We will definitely be back to try some Sandos! read more

Straying away from my semi-usual Sunday lunch. I stepped in next door (same shopping center) Ive always been wanting to try this place but my Vietnamese lunch place always win. I don't know their rice plate is my weakness but today I'm here to try their pork bento special, Tonkatsu Bento . Walking in, you are immediately greeted with a cheery voice behind the counter along with the happy music in the background. Small place but the space is laid of perfectly to accommodate more people. Tonkatsu Bento for $14 is more than enough for 1 person. I couldn't even finish this serving but I'm excited for my left over. Definitely coming back to try their sandos for next time. read more

There's snacks and the Mitsuya Cider in a fun industrial type can is def the move with the crispy fried katsu! Def worth checking out! read more

We had a great experience at Yokozuna. It has a surprisingly spacious interior with quite a few tables. We got the fruit sandos, katsu bento, and the egg sandos. Everything was delicious and made to order. The bento had a lot of fresh Japanese pickles, veggies, and salad. It was an amazing balance of freshness and flavors. The salad dressing tasted like it was just made and had great flavor. The sandos were all really delicious as well. The girl at the front was nice enough to allow us to substitute the strawberry for an extra grape which was great. Usually we get sandos from Mitsuwa and they've been sitting around and get a little soggy. This was definitely not the case here. A freshly made sando is a gamechanger. The cream inside the fruit one was also very smooth and not overly sweet. Can't wait to come back and try more! read more

Sando Sampler - comes with spicy chicken, tamago salad and tonkatsu! All the sandwiches were fresh and the bread was so soft and fluffy! Spicy Chicken - it has like pink pickled radish which gives extra flavor. The spice comes from gochujang which gives it a bit of a kick but it's not too noticeable. The sauce is well distributed and in a good amount! Tamago Salad - egg is well mixed with the rest of the ingredients to give a very creamy texture and taste! It is well seasoned and delicious! Tonkatsu - it's super crunchy and the cabbage is fresh too! Overall a delicious flavor and the crunch of the chicken + cabbage mixed well with the soft bread! Also seasoned well and probably my favorite of the three! VIBES There is wooden seating and some people also just order to-go! There's also a little claw machine and small trinkets you can purchase. Very clean and casual place to grab some sandwiches or bento! SERVICE Service is great! Very friendly overall! No complaints here! read more

Adorable little spot. The inside had cute little wooden booths and tables, very clean I was very excited for Japanese sandos & Bento... both I LOVE. Ordered: 1. Tamago (egg) Sando - mild on flavor, excellent egg salad to bread ratio, great presentation. 2. Miso Salmon Bento - this was incredible! The miso sauce on the salmon was blowing my mind with flavor. I wish they would list the items you'll receive in the box because there was a tofu dish that I can't stop thinking about ...it was a little spicy in a brown sauce and I think another meat? It was delicious. No idea what it is. The dressing on the salad was addicting, I only wish I could have ordered an extra. I would definitely come back to try other items....But most likely I'll be ordering the salmon again! I ordered takeout, it took a bit of time to get my food but ultimately, worth it. The bento box was beautifully curated and you get a nice variety of items to try for the price (~$20). I'll be back! read more

Cute vibes inside with plenty of booth seating available. We got both the sweet and savory ones and really enjoyed both. My favorite was the spicy chicken. The fruit was fresh and cream made daily. It felt very fresh, especially since we walked in right as they opened. read more

Solid sandos! Tried the tamago and the matcha/strawberry sandos and both were fantastic. The bread is nice and soft, with just a little bit of chew for some great texture. The tamago is light and creamy- very good. The matcha/strawberry was a nice dessert, not too sweet. Only downside to these sandos is that you gotta be careful or the contents will spill out the opposite end haha. Will have to come back and try some of their bento boxes now! read more

After a long day of work I went to visit a friend at the cool new Sando place and wow, is delightful! The staff and owner are so kind and the vibe is casual but also cozy decor. Miso soup - warm and more fishy than normal restaurant miso soup, which was pleasantly surprising. Comforting and cozy. Takoyaki - warm, scrumptious, classic. Sando sampler - katsu Sando balanced with good distribution of chicken / pork and cabbage. Egg salad was my favorite! The strawberry matcha is everything I wished for from the Texas deep fried matcha but not fried. The matcha cream is fluffy and the strawberries are perfectly tart. Overall, absolutely lovely. Counting the days before I can go back! read more

It's a small restaurant and you walk up to the cashier to order. For the 2 of us, we each ordered their Sando Sampler (wasn't sure how big the Sando would be) and the Fruit Sando. Our sandwiches were brought to our table ... Oh my goodness! Everything was delicious! You have a choice of 3 different flavored whipped cream in the Fruit Sando. We picked Ube! It was amazing. I'm home right now and still thinking about the Ube Fruit Sando. There were several other appetizers we want to try next time. Maybe 1 Sando Sampler, 1 Ube Fruit Sando and a few appetizers This is definitely 5bstars for me for food, service, and leaving wanting more read more

I got the chef special, salmon belly. I asked for additional roe topping. The salmon belly was…read moredelicious. It was perfectly cooked. It was tender and juicy, absolutely melt in your mouth juicy. I was expecting a small piece of salmon belly, but it was a generous portion. I'll definitely reorder this next time. I also ordered the grilled salmon plate, which came with a much smaller piece of salmon. I was surprised the salmon portion was so small compared to the salmon belly and mackerel plate. The salmon did taste great at least. My bf got pork katsu and he liked it. I tried the katsu and it was good. My bf thinks the curry sauce was good, but not as good as Coco's. My friend got the mackerel plate, and the mackerel tasted great too. It was also a generous portion of mackerel.

This isn't the kind of Japanese restaurant where you come for sushi or ramen. It's really more like comfort food and street food. Things like omurice, takoyaki, hot dogs (yes hot dogs and they're delicious), yakisoba, and my favorites: their curry and okonomiyaki pancake. TLDR: An excellent study spot with good food, good drinks, and good vibes. Highly recommend.

I have been here twice already, and I have tried their curry & their kids meal. The curry is fairly standard, I do wish the rice was a little fluffier. However, the kids meal was so cute! The rice came out shaped as a panda!! The second time I came here was for a photoshoot. The staff was so sweet and accommodating! I was given the okay when asking for permission, and I believe the employee that helped me out was named Rin. Thank you for ensuring I had a good experience at the cafe!! I'll definitely be coming back the next time I'm in the Richardson area

I got the Bulgogi bento, and all of it was just okay. The edamame was actively kind of flavorless, the bulgogi was sweeter than I would prefer with way more veggies than actual meat, and everything was just kind of alright rather than standout. Bf generally liked his sushi but said he'd gotten better elsewhere. The reason I bump this to 4 star instead of 3 is due to the waitress bringing out two additional dishes for free to our group. These two were generally popular among the group, though I personally didn't like them. I don't think it was gross or anything, but I felt it was average for what I'm used to.

I've been to Michelin starred omakases (including tempura omakases) in Japan and New York, and this place honestly meets or comes extremely close to fitting the bill in terms of food and service. At the Michelin restaurants, you pay almost double the price for high quality ingredients, stellar service, ambiance, and a Japanese toilet :P For $100 pp for the tempura omakase at Takumi Hachi, you leave feeling full and satisfied, with a great selection of light and deliciously fried fritters. Each person gets a bowl of their divinely delicious tempura sauce with a generous amount of shaved daikon (not even lying when i say this is my favorite tempura sauce i've had, i could've just drank it on its own) and a selection of salts, with each course given a recommendation of which salt to use. In terms of ambiance: frankly speaking, if it was just the counter service omakase, i'd say it would feel more stuffy and unapproachable. But there is a general seating area that is not counter service where you can order off the menu for sushi, robata, and a la carte options. No dress code enforced or recommended, so you can be dining with all sorts of patrons with different sizes of families and children. whether or not this is your jam, it's still an extremely accessible place to dine for anyone and everyone. Reservations were incredibly easy to make (tempura omakase only From Sunday thru Thursday). Service was really kind and attentive, my husband's water literally never went below half empty. The only thing to take service to the next level is if they cleaned/wiped your plate/gave you a new plate between each course. American toilet. Lol. That's neither here nor there, but the bathroom is very clean lol! They were also sweet enough to read my reservation note for the occasion for dining and gifted us a delicious strawberry mousse, accompanied with a surprise tableside matcha to end the meal. I'm already looking forward to try their kaiseki set meal next time, and know that this place is a top contender to take my friends or loved ones for special occasions. I can't speak much for their sushi, but I added on some robata and grill menu items to the omakase and they were fantastic. Highly recommend the maitake mushroom tempura add on to your course. If you order ebi sushi, they offer to take the head once you're done eating the sushi and either put it in a miso soup or fry it for you, which i thought was a wonderful option. Also, we got tempura anago, something I've never had anywhere else, served two different ways. That alone was enough to make this experience stand out. For an experience like I had tonight, I felt as if the restaurant should be more full. Maybe because it is tucked away behind the other chain restaurants in Addison that are a little easier to see. Don't hesitate if you see the price tag, I definitely think you get a great value for food, service, and experience. We were there for two hours and enjoyed it very much. Thank goodness i don't have to drive all the way to downtown Dallas to enjoy some delicious Japanese food without the headache and hassle of finding parking and an accessible reservation.

The left side/entrance area does have a bleach/cleaner type smell but I didn't notice it further into the restaurant. We did the Kaiseki Omakase. Staff is super friendly and explained every step of the experience. Like all courses meals - smaller portions but overall left super full. The clay pot was actually a huge portion as both of us ended up getting two bowls worth. Pacing of the meal was solid, kept it moving but didn't feel rushed at all. We were celebrating a birthday and they gave us a sweet treat as well at the end which was so appreciated! Would definitely recommend for a special occasion
