My server quickly greeted me and provided the Lunch Menu. The inside is pretty small but has a nice vibe and my server was super sweet and attentive. I decided on the Deluxe Bento with Salmon Teriyaki, which included Miso Soup, Salad, 1/2 Spicy Tuna Roll and Tempura Shrimp. My food was served in about 10 minutes and everything tasted great. I loved the Salmon Teriyaki and the Shrimp Tempura. For a Lunch Special, you get a pretty decent amount of food, I definitely wasn't able to finish it all. I wish I lived closer to this location because I would grab lunch from here pretty often. Lunch is served from 11:30am - 2:30pm and for $20, you definitely can't beat it! Definitely stop by if you're in the area!

The dining area inside is small, but it can still accommodate maybe one big group. There's also outdoor seating available. We came for an early dinner on a weekday, and it started getting busy pretty quickly. They were able to accommodate our large party inside since we had little kids with us, though we did have to split into two tables. Since we had small kids, the menu doesn't really cater much to them aside from the fried rice, but they were able to make a non-spicy version upon request.

I did expect the food to be a bit larger for the price and portion size, so that was a little disappointing. The kids, however, enjoyed the fried rice, and you really can't go wrong with the drinks. Our tab came out to a little over $340. Overall, this place was just okay for us.

Have you been to this spot in Virginia Beach where you can enjoy both ramen and sushi?…read more It was raining pretty heavily on the day I visited, but the staff was so kind and told us that we could take our time before heading out. That small gesture made us feel really welcomed! I didn't try the sushi this time, but I ordered the ramen and takoyaki. The takoyaki was unfortunately a little cold, but it was still tasty. The ramen came in a generous portion and was really satisfying! This was completely my own money, and I always like sharing my honest experience. If I'm in the area again, I'd definitely consider coming back!

I ordered the spicy umami miso ramen with tofu, karaage, and a soft-boiled egg, and it was absolutely delicious--rich, comforting, and full of flavor. I'll admit I went a little overboard with the add-ons, but I was just too excited and couldn't resist. It's a hidden gem tucked into a shopping center and easy to miss from the main road, but there's plenty of parking and once you're inside it's much more spacious than it looks. The staff were friendly, service was quick, and everything came out fresh. Prices were very reasonable too, especially for the portion sizes and quality. There's also a wide menu beyond ramen, so I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more. Before leaving, I grabbed a brown sugar boba milk tea too. I was already full, so I saved it for later--but even then, it was still really good. Overall, a great first experience--I'll definitely be returning!

First, our poor waitress forgot my soup and when she returned with it, it tasted straight up like beef broth. Second, the sushi were bland and mine had cooked salmon that was all dark salmon. It was so gamey, so fishy. And it fell apart. My daughter had a bento box and she said the salad was disappointing. But the biggest issue was my son's "bridge" or whatever wooden structure his sushi was on, had mold. We were 1/2 into our sushi when she brought out the vegetable tempera that we requested as an appetizer. It was flavorless as well. 3 people, 3 lunches and 1tea and $65 later a lesson learned.

The roll was pretty good, but the miso soup and hibachi chicken were outstanding. It's a nice restaurant inside, easy to walk to from most restaurants, and worth a visit if you're in VA Beach.

We were seeking something quiet yet with a delicious menu which this place had that exactly. The restaurant is very small but has plenty of space to accommodate small or larger parties. The staff from the moment entering to leaving were extremely kind and eager to assist. The menu has tons to offer which is a nice change compared to other sushi/hibachi spots. The beef teriyaki bento box was delicious. My husband loved his chicken yakisoba bowl.

But the absolute worst part was when we paid: the server openly trash-talked and cursed at us in Chinese behind our backs, assuming we couldn't understand. When I posted about this on Google Maps, the owner simply tried to dodge responsibility with a fake response about "mutual respect." Are you seriously trying to turn a server cursing us out for no reason into a "both sides" thing? We were totally nice the whole time and even stacked our own dirty plates to help her out, only to get talked trash about in Chinese behind our backs. Is this really how you guys treat customers? Why are you completely dodging the point here? We didn't provoke anyone. Respect is a two-way street--we gave her respect, and she gave us verbal abuse in return. If you can't even tell right from wrong and just use fake PR lines to cover up your employee trash-talking customers, then your management is honestly terrible. Zero tip, zero stars, and never coming back.

Coming from New York, where hibachi restaurants are everywhere, I was surprised at how difficult it…read morewas to find one in the Virginia Beach area. We decided to give Saruki Japanese Hibachi a try on a weeknight and were seated after only about a five-minute wait. One thing we really enjoyed was having the hibachi table to ourselves. Unlike many hibachi experiences where you're seated with other parties, it was just my family, which made for a more relaxed dinner. Our chef was entertaining without being over the top, and the cooking was done well. The steak and scallops were both cooked perfectly, which we appreciated. The meal came with the standard vegetables, although we noticed there were no bean sprouts, which are common at many hibachi restaurants in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. We also missed the traditional dipping sauces that usually accompany hibachi meals. Instead, we were served a mayo-based sauce that wasn't really to our taste. The staff was happy to provide Sriracha when requested, which helped. Service was decent, and the food was good overall. However, with restaurant prices being what they are today, the experience didn't quite stand out enough for us to make a return visit. It wasn't a bad meal by any means--just one that ultimately felt a bit forgettable. This version comes across as fair and constructive while still explaining why you likely won't be back.
