Revolting. Absolutely awful. Great reviews that seem suspect now. Or maybe the reviews reflect an abject absence of experience with actual Japanese food. I've spent enough time in Japan to develop a liking for Japanese food, over a year, in fact. So I have a good idea of what to expect.We had the California roll and the curry chicken katsu bento box. California roll was not good. Hy Vee sushi is ten times better. The chicken katsu was limp with the breading falling off, covered with RANCH DRESSING!!! Tempura was also a fail, not fully covered. The "tempura" batter would have been fine on French fries but it was not even close to actual tempura. Curry was a tasteless rough potato soup. Salads also had ranch dressing. The only Japanese thing in this restaurant is the Japanese beer. Really awful, I felt like I really needed to vomit after tasting the food here. Not Japanese and not recommended.

This restaurant is in the same strip mall in East Lawrence as the Set 'em Up Jack's sports bar and the Cascada La Golondrina Mexican Restaurant. Moriki Sushi is a surprise, much better than we had anticipated. The food is excellent, the dining room very nice, and the background music pleasant. The dining room has three booths along the windows and comfortable tables of different size throughout the attractive room. There also is a sushi bar. We sat at a booth, and the service was excellent.They have Sapporo beer, hot sake, and three choices of cold saki, including the excellent Momokawa saki. We got the hot sake with our appetizers and a bottle of Momokawa cold, dry sake with the sushi. We finished only half the bottle and took the rest home. They also have two other smaller bottles of cold sake, one sweet and the other sparkling. We will probably try the sparkling one next time. At present, they do not have regular grape wine, but might in the future.For appetizers, we tried the Hiyayakko tofu, the iron egg, spring rolls, and the smoked salmon sashimi. All four were absolutely excellent! We were very impressed. We also got the miso soup, which was fine but not outstanding. We usually like to add a little hot sauce to miso soup, so we asked for hot sauce. We were brought an excessively large bowl of Sriracha. An upcharge for hot sauce is rather unusual, but we were charged 50 cents for the unnecessarily large bowl of sriracha. Next time we will not ask for hot sauce, since we found the upcharge to be rather annoying, although trivial.For sushi, we got the Las Vegas Roll and the Philadelphia Roll. They were very good, although they have only white sushi rice. We usually prefer brown or black rice, but they do not have them.We would suggest that they make available a regular grape wine (at least a chardonnay white wine) and brown or black rice and drop the upcharge for hot sauce.

Excellent sushi place! It has been years since I've had service, quality handcrafted food, and a clean and appealing atmosphere in a local Japanese restaurant. We went for lunch on a Friday, and had almost no wait time for service. All food items (yes, even wasabi & pickled ginger) appear to me made on site, and we enjoyed every single bite.Prices are very competitive especially considering the quality.We look forward to becoming regulars.

Hidden gem in SE Lawrence, absolutely beautiful, serene, immaculate Japanese restaurant with the most gorgeous fresh cuisine I have ever tasted. Lovely full service (have the tea).

We were really impressed by the freshness and generous portions of fish in the nigiri. Liked my seaweed salad (although, on the menu it says served in a "syrup"... I don't know about that, but definitely lots of sesame oil). I also had the bagel roll which was good. Terrific service, nice open interior. Can't wait to come back and try more eats.

Incredible atmosphere, sweet servers, and tasty appetizers and mains! We split the chicken katsu curry and the volcano roll, and we got the kani furai as an appetizer. Plus some hot tea. GREAT spot for date night, and super reasonable for an upscale dining experience.
