"Wow the yellow curry here is amazing. It was the right amount of spicy yet sweet from the coconut milk, and had a variety of vegetables in it. I ordered it with tofu which was great- not spongy at all. I got it delivered from uber eats, and it was prepared exactly on time as it said on the app. It came hot and with a side of rice, ready to eat!"
"Lunch prices are very reasonable. 3 generously sized rolls are $15 - large and filling. If you check in via Yelp, you'll get a side of free edamame. Service can be slow as there's only one person doing double duty as host and server. There was a small wait before food arrived so the free edamame was appreciated."
"We went with another couple for a late lunch over the weekend, and we all walked away absolutely stuffed. We ordered 10 rolls, but I think I walked away eating one. The eggrolls were cooked fresh and tasted great, but what sushi our friend picked was delicious. I was shocked at how quickly the fresh rolled sushi came out. I will definitely be bringing our boys to get their fill of sushi, but I think I'll try to come during the weekday so it's a little bit cheaper."
"Sakura Bana is at the top of my list for Sushi in Omaha. What you get here is authentic, unique and delicious rolls and dishes that you won't be able to find at other sushi areas around. They have unique flavors, like the Volcano Roll, and some more classic rolls like the Mango Roll. Whether you like sashimi or teriyaki chicken or a good California Roll you will be able to find something here.We got our food relatively quickly but the ambiance was simple, easy, and authentic to what we were going to eat. It wasn't anything flashy - it was just what we needed. All of the servers we interacted with were kind and helpful in picking our food and getting us what we needed.Give this one a try!"
"On our road trip through Lincoln, my husband wanted steak for our anniversary dinner. But I wanted something fun and different since most steakhouses feel formal and stuffy which wasn't my road trip mood. So we ended up here to satisfy what we were both looking for. My husband got the beef platter, with so much meat, which included: Yaki - Shabu Beef, Filet Mignon and Kalbi Short Rib. And I got the Koen Kirin which included: Gyoza (3 pcs), Hanger Steak, Top Sirloin, Spicy Pork Belly, Chicken Bulgogi and Sweet Potato. Each table has a grill to cook your meats how you like and had 3 dipping sauces to add that tasty final touch. This was the perfect spot for our anniversary dinner."
"You know the staff is nice and friendly. I would say the shrimp fried rice. Is very delicious they give you a lot of food. It's even good reheated the next day"
"This is one of my favorite places to eat. The food is always fantastic! We usually go for lunch because they have good lunch specials. My favorite is the bento box. It has multiple customizable options. You get choices of protein,( panko, teriyaki, or katsu) plain or fried rice, appetizers, it comes with a few pieces of the California roll as well as their clear soup, which I adore. The soup is so simple yet so flavorful. The lunch hibachi is really great too. It comes with your choice of protein, lots of veggies, fried rice, soup and salad. The salads are pretty simple, they consist primarily of iceberg lettuce, and you have the option of ranch or ginger dressing. I recommend the ginger because it is infinitely better. The reason I gave four stars instead of five is because the service can be hit or miss depending on your server. They are all very nice, but sometimes they forget your soup or never come back by to check on you after they drop off the food, things like that. For the most part though, they do a great job!"
"This was a nice choice for dinner. Chinese/Japanese food in Nebraska??? But Yes!The OMG roll is a must!"

This restaurant was recommended by several people and I can see why! If you are a sushi lover, this is your restaurant. This will be my go-to sushi place from now on. AMBIANCE I really enjoyed the feeling of this restaurant. I had reservations for 5:30 and it only got busier as the night went on. It's clean, there is plenty of parking and it's easy to find. SERVICEThe service was incredibly fast. Menus and waters were brought immediately and it only took about 10 mins after ordering to receive the food. The waiter was attentive and polite. FOOD Everything was great! Appetizers, soup, rolls and drinks. The thing I really loved was that their sushi rolls weren't cut big. They were smaller much more manageable sizes to eat. PRICE The price was very reasonable based on the quality of the food and the service provided. I would have expect to pay a little more to be honest.

This has been the second year in a row that I have come to this place with a big group of 10 for my prom! They let us have the private room in the back and gave us a speaker to play music. The room was also decorated with lights and it was perfect! It made dinner really fun! Our waiter was super nice and attentive, even though our orders were a little all over the place. The food was super good (pictures included) and we had a lot of fun with the sake bombs. This is one of the best sushi spots in Lincoln for sure. We'll definitely be back!

This place is amazing. Don't let anyone shame you for all you can eat sushi. Apps are great. Rolls are great. Eat some tempura. Nigiri is great. Well worth the trip. Cheers to your business model.And, you can order a la carte off the menu if you won't eat all that much. Wonderful dining experience.

This is one of my family's go to restaurants! My kids also choose Koen for their birthday dinners. Although, we have been here on too many occasions to count, we have never had a bad experience. First of all, the servers are always great. I don't know how this happens but they have always been so enthusiastic and friendly. I'm Korean by background and grew up in Hawaii. My standards are very high for anything that resembles Korean BBQ. Koen's BBQ is not your standard Korean BBQ but it is a great variation of it. And somehow it won't break you wallet! We are such fans of Koen. I would also suggest going here for your birthday! If you want a whole restaurant singing "Happy Birthday" in a BTS-esque song version, this is your place!

This place doesn't look like much from the outside, but it is clean, tidy and they are always super nice! I sat down and was asked for my drink order immediately (Pepsi products). I ordered the lunch combo which comes with a main dish, fried or steamed rice, soup choice, an egg roll and a crab Rangoon. I scarfed it before the pic, sorry! I added my Diet Pepsi and the total was $12.31. As you can see, this is going to feed me 3x! The food was good! Just enough spice today, because heartburn is a beast! You could get it kicked up. I will order extra chicken next time for more preteen because this dish was heavy on carrots and light on chicken. (Chicken in Hot Garlic Sauce, add snow peas). Service was excellent!! They were attentive without being up in your business. I will return with hubby to try the curry, next!

The chicken teriyaki and the salmon is always really good. The gyoza and lucky pockets are wonderful as well. The service is always very sweet and super quick. It's one of our favorite places to go.

Was not too bad for flavors. The Hawiian roll was delicious, but the miso soup lacked flavor. The ambiance was calming, and the place looked very clean. All in all wasn't a bad price for the service and food.

"My new sushi destination. Las Vegas roll rocks as does the spicy tuna. Fresh, very good quality and excellent value. One of my favorite spots in Papillion."
"We did sushi takeout for a special celebration and LOVED EVERYTHING! So fresh! Well done, Kinja!We have never tried a scallop roll and we're surprised by how delightful it was. Highly recommend!"
"Been here twice now as this is the ONLY place in the area to get my poke fix.Luckily this place has lots of great options and gives good portion sizes for a reasonable price.Will defibiteky be back next time I'm in the area for business.Cheers!"
"I ordered take out here, and unfortunately didn't receive my whole order.Additionally, I got the check bento box. I think the chicken was good, it was very similar to the teriyaki from Sarku Japan. I like the it included sushi and pot stickers. The sushi wasn't the best ever, and the pot stickers were missing some type of sauce. I also got the crab rangoon, and again, missing the sauce so it wasn't overall a great first experience, perhaps would be better in person."
"The price is good but the sushi isn't the greatest quality, the cheesecake dessert is yummy but it used to be a lot bigger. The waitress we had was very nice though. The seafood boil was pretty good though not the best I've ever had but it was better than the sushi I'd say. I do like how they have the all you can eat sushi though."
"Well this place is way better than the AYCE sushi place downtown Tokyo sushi ? by a landslide but not sure if it was because it was Xmas or because they want you to fill up but service was slow and they would not bring out everything you ordered . Still gave it four stars because they were so friendly, warm and welcome even if aforementioned was not up to par. Of course the kids were highly entertained by the robo kitty server that brought the majority of our food . In general the space is super clean and modern with cute decor. As of Xmas day 2024 kids at least three and under were free of charge and my six year old they charged $13.99. All the adults were $23 or $24.99 for all day dinner . My parents loved it I think mostly because they included sashimi. So yep we will probably be back!"
"Ninja is the kind of hole in the wall sushi joint Lincoln needs. There sushi is as good as Blue, but cheaper and faster. Oh they deliver too. Also they do chinese food. I've never tried it but they make it."
"Some of my co-workers and I went to the International Buffet today for lunch and it was an okay experience.We walk in and were seated immediately, in the back of the restaurant. It was kind of weird that they sat us back there since the place was pretty dead. Not a big deal, just kind of odd.I was hungry so I bee-lined straight to the buffet. Total, I got two plates of a bunch of different 'Chinese' dishes and two plates of crab rangoons. (obviously no crab in them but they tasted okay.) I would have gotten sushi but they didn't have any out when I was eating. They waited till I got my dessert to bring out the sushi; not sure how their buffet sushi would have tasted any way.For dessert, I got a small cup of their self-serve ice cream. It was good, not great.The service was good. they came to our table a few tables making sure that we had refills and asked if we needed anything.The price was pretty cheap for lunch. I got a water to drink and my total was $8.20 - which isn't bad.All in all, the food was okay - typical Chinese buffet food texture and taste. Not sure if I'll go back or not."
"I've been coming here for the past month or two and this place is SOOO good!! Food is always 10/10, staff is nice, and quick service. This place is a staple for me!"
"The food is great, fresh and cooked to order. The vegetables on the side were really nice. The drawback is if they are busy you are looking at a 20 minute wait and if they are slow it is still at least 10. The ordering was fast and efficient. They are slightly pricey compared to your burger and Taco places, but it tasted a lot better. They also have outdoor seating and they are the only place we have been to in Nebraska with sweet tea."
"We finally got around to trying this newer Omaha restaurant for an easy take out night. Their portions were generous, everything was cooked well and tasted great! Our favorites: chicken teriyaki with veggies and noodles (get the noodles you guys) and their crab rangoons. This particular evening we were looking for a good deal and something quick! This was both - one meal and app served 2 hungry parents and a curious toddler. We look forward to coming back and trying some of the hibachi offerings as well!"
