Eastern Kitchen & Sushi

This is my first time here, and it was a great experience! The setup was cool and chill. The gentleman who served us was professional and did a great job of getting our orders out to us in a timely, the orders were right, the food was hot., and delicious. The shrimp tempura was delicious and I enjoyed the salmon fried rice. This establishment has a new customer and I will be back soon.

Yum! Cant wait to try more. I got the miso ramen which was delicious with the fried tofu- looked like bread tasted like no tofu I've ever had before. And the ginger creme brulee for dinner which was so great. Service was quick. Many of tables inside, wish the blinds were open. Will be back!

My son and I were in the mood for Ramen noodles and a search through Yelp brought us to this restaurant. They had a bunch of two for one deals that I thought were amazing. They had two for one Ramen, two for one chicken, wings, and two for one potstickers. I ordered through Uber eats and the food got to the house fairly quickly. I liked how the broth was separated from the noodles, meat and veggies. I thought the broth was plain enough so that I could add my own sauces to turn it into a broth that I would enjoy. We got the Pork belly Ramen, I give the pork belly to my son. It was a little too chewy for my liking. The noodles were soft, and enjoyable. Of course I would've liked more, but the portion was average. The chicken wings would've been batter. Had they not been served in a plastic container that retained too much moisture and made the chicken wing soggy. But you could tell the flavor was there and had I ordered it in house and eaten it right away it would've been delicious. And the potstickers were just regular potstickers. If I'm in the mood for Ramen again, I would definitely order from here again.

Tried the Mexican sushi roll and was delicious! Inside, it looks small but cozy. My order was ready is less than 10 minutes. The only con is that by having an open kitchen, it felt somewhat warm inside..

I was highly disappointed by this place. It feels like they got everything from a frozen section and thawed it out under hot water. The crab Rangoon and spring rolls had a strange rubbery texture. The sushi tasted old and dry. The only good thing was our Ginger salad. I do not recommend this place for asain cuisine, there are MUCH better places just down the street.

Mel and I have seen Eastern Kitchen & Sushi pop up on Uber Eats a number of times, but we always chose to not order delivery from them before dining in with them, believing that Asian and Pan Asian cuisine and dining experiences really lose something in the presentation when you get it delivered (with the possible exception of New York-style Chinese take-out). This past weekend, we finally got to pay a visit to their location on 4th Street North and it was well worth the trip!For those who don't know, Eastern Kitchen & Sushi is located in the space where Capital Taco used to be, just yards away from Metro Diner, which sits on the opposite end of the strip plaza. Anyone who's frequented Metro knows how limited parking can be in that plaza, so be warned -- on weekends and evenings parking may be a little dicey. But once you've got that squared away and you walk in the door to Eastern Kitchen, you should be set for a fun dinner out.First of all, these folks had a beverage that was an absolute revelation for Mel and I: Chocolat Nigori sake! We are huge fans of Nigori sake -- the unfiltered, cloudy sake that gives the beverage a completely different taste and mouthfeel than clear, dry sake often served hot or used for sake bombs. That said, traditional Nigori can sometimes be an acquired taste because of its flavor -- not so with Chocolat, though! We ordered a bottle and it came with shot glasses meant for sipping, but I challenge anyone to have the self control not to shoot it like a dessert shot once you try it. It's reminiscent of some recent chocolate wines that have hit the market: slightly thicker than blended cream liqueur, all chocolate sweetness and no alcohol after-taste. Dangerous stuff -- careful you don't fall in love!Now, on to the stuff that really matters: the food! Eastern Kitchen & Sushi has one entire side of their menu dedicated to nigiri, sashimi, and sushi roll options, so sushi lovers should have plenty to choose from. We plan to go back and try some of those offerings, but on this visit we hit the other side of the menu, which features a wide variety of options from across a variety of countries. We tried to pick our appetizers and dinner options to reflect that diversity: 5-spice braised beef bao buns to start, then a Korean BBQ bowl for me and Tonkatsu Ramen for Mel. Everything was presented beautifully and had tremendous flavor. Mel did get the better dish, I must say -- their inclusion of pickled ginger gave the pork bone broth a very unexpected and delightful zing, which complimented the egg and other myriad flavors going on in that bowl. I liked mine a great deal, but I think my choice of soba noodles instead of brown rice made eating the dish a little harder than it had to be. Also, when ordering the bulgogi (thinly sliced steak) as your protein, keep in mind it's off the bone, and getting all the meat off can be a challenge.Amazingly, we found we had room for dessert after all that, so to wrap up our dining experience we ordered their tempura fried cheesecake with vanilla ice cream. If you've never tried cheesecake served this way, you're truly missing out -- the tempura batter and powdered sugar adds a whole new layer of flavor to the cheesecake and graham cracker crust that you will not believe. May try it next time with the green tea ice cream, but we're definitely getting it again!All in all, we had a very solid first dining experience at Eastern Kitchen & Sushi. We'll definitely be back to try their sushi offerings and definitely will be ordering delivery from them in the near future!

This place is pretty good and has plenty of vegan and vegetarian options which is always a bonus for us. Loved the crispy Brussels sprouts with lychee - so different and delicious! They're marked vegan on the menu but came out with cream on top, they quickly took it back and replaced them. The seaweed salad was good too with some fresh cucumbers underneath. My partner got the miso ramen and LOVED it. Happy man eating his food. The two rolls I got were the Yam Yam and the Avergreen. Both were good and the crisp of the tempura on the sweet potato was GREAT! Sometimes it ends up kinda soggy but these were nice and crispy. Loved having a vegan option with the avocado wrapped around the sushi too! Nice touch I don't see often. And as a bonus everyone who worked there was extremely friendly and helpful! It didn't completely blow us away, but we'll be back given the variety of options they have for us and fresh quality of the food.

It 4.5 stars not yet 5 stars. The reason they are good rating due to good pricing, good food, good ambient, and good service. It popular among the local. We start with spicy crunchy roll and eel roll. It it decent with 8 pieces each. Fish is good. Spicy tuna also good. We also got one of the specialty roll. It is the scallops volcano. The bay scallops was on top. The inside is the crab tempura. We also got a bento box sushi. It has 4 pieces of fish sushi, California roll, goyoza, rice and salad. Our experience here is great. Love the. We will be back.

The food is very mediocre. The fried rice is so plain, the rolls barely have any salmon in them and the fried roll tastes like old fry oil.

There should be an option for less than one star. The owner should NOT be in business. He is extremely rude and unprofessional, choosing to drink on the job and treat his employees as if they do not hold any significance. He recently chose to "let go" of an employee because he was sick, even after having gone to the Urgent Care and getting a professional-sick note he was fired. The atmosphere is misleading. Behind the "5-star food" and "pleasant atmosphere" there are not sufficient quantity of sushi chefs and instead of hiring more people (like any sane and professional owner would) he chose to put the responsibilities of those jobs on a singular worker. When that worker and his girlfriend became sick and his health came into question, the owner assured him he could take off time to feel better. The following day, the worker was fired UNFAIRLY. DON'T WORK HERE. THE OWNER IS RUDE AND LACKS EMPATHY.0/5 STARS BECAUSE YOU SUCK :)
