Shrimp tempura app was fantastic! Mother said hers was Great! Good service & GREAT lunch! Highly recommended!!

Personally I think it's 3.75 / 5A nice friendly place to grab some comfort and familiar East Asian food after a long day of trip. I love my salmon poke bowl, it's light yet flavorful, I'm not sure what is the sauce for my poke bowl, definitely not spicy mayo, but I love it, sort of vinegary, brings out my appetite. It also comes with a miso soup, I love it!Spring rolls are hard to go wrong, be careful with the hot stuffing. Also if you don't like or not sure about eel sauce, do mention that beforehand.Tempura rolls are a bit dry for the rice, there are drizzled with eel sauce, if you're strict vegetarian or you're not sure what eel sauce is, may as well ask for sauce on the side.

I had posted a really good review of this place earlier this morning for the great service my fiancé and I had last night at this restaurant. However when we went back today, I couldn't say it was enjoyable. My fiancé and I got some food at Trader Joe's and wanted a little spicy mayo and soy sauce for our lunch. This restaurant would not sell us spicy mayo or soy sauce if we didn't buy sushi? Weird... would think if a restaurant is getting money for something no matter how small that they would be happy? Guess not.

Searched for Asian food after a weekend in Yosemite and we ended up here. We had a large group and the owner apologized that they might not be able to get us food in a timely manner or proper service but we let them know that we wouldn't mind! They seemed understaffed and was probably expecting a slow day. They were kind enough to accommodate so we have no complaints there.This place has a medley of different selections! Mostly Japanese, but some Korean. It's crazy how they maintain such a large menu. The rolls are cheaper than usual Japanese restaurants. They did the job, and their rice didn't fall apart easily which is always a plus! Their bulgogi was probably my favorite along with their udon. My only complaint is probably that the katsu in my katsudon was sadly very firm. It sort of felt like I was biting into rubber. My experience would've been perfect if it wasn't for that. Nonetheless this place deserves more traffic!

This would be the best Asian restaurant, if a person never had Asian food before. Never had food this bad before. The ramen ordered was straight from the grocery store Asian isle. The staff was rude and never brought water to the table. The sushi looked like it was made by children and tasted the same. The wasabi had a strange bluish tint to it and the ginger was aged. We had to bring our own water.Was charged a premium rate and kept saying they had to turn others away due to our large party, but no others were at the door and the other side was empty.

Horrible experience for my family and I. Date 08-31-2024. Dined in to celebrate my mother in law's birthday, she decided she wanted sushi..this place was the only sushi spot open.. the other sushi spot she wanted to eat at was closed for the day which was 5 stars compared to this place 3 stars out of 5. I felt uneasy going in to eat but my mother in law wanted sushi. Not the cleanest place to eat sushi. Half way through our meal, I thought I only noticed but also my mother in law also noticed.. the sushi chef would jump in and take orders for customers WHILE using the same gloves to make sushi with..handling collecting the menus, writing down orders, handling the cashier. I kept turning around watching sushi chef waiting to see if he would change out his gloves but he didn't. Disgusting!!!!! Why is he jumping in taking orders for people when there are two other staff members taking orders? If you are the sushi chef (handle the food) not taking orders for customers while using the same gloves. This place needs to be shut down asap.. I did not order sushi for myself, I felt disgusted walking in already..I ordered katsu curry while my family ordered sashimi and sushi. I was afraid my family or I would get sick on our Labor Day weekend mini family vacation. So please customers if you are reading this please be aware of the sushi chef.. he is plain unsanitary. Sushi was made horrible, food is mediocre and place is dirty.

Food was good for the limited options in town, it came out very quick for us coming in an hour before closed, literally within 10 minutes. Was satisfying portions after a 11 mile hike. The staff was lovely and very attentive. Very homey family restaurant with locals around. Seems like a great place to stop when you're hunkering for Asian cuisine.

If you go in imagining you're headed to your cousin's for their homemade sushi you'll be ok. Sushi rolls weren't bad but they weren't good. Very nice staff.

This breakfast place was a surprisingly delicious experience! I'm gluten, dairy, and soy free, so food is usually very cardboard-y and flavorless. I had a delicious breakfast with super knowledgeable and helpful staff! Highly recommend!

Its disgusting and horrible food Dont waste your time!! All the other negative reviews are there for a reason. Curry udon literally had nothing but udon in some diluted curry sauce with water yuck!
