    GOOD, NOT GREAT. I reaaaallly wanted to love this place--I really did. But the price for what you get here is just not worth 5-star love. I ordered two dishes and a Thai Iced Tea and it was $40 (yikes!!!!). I ordered their Pad Thai with tofu and felt like it just lacked flavor. It looked amazing and was perfectly moist, but it simply lacked flavor. Luckily, I ordered their Mongolian Beef which, by the way, they marinate, bread the beef themselves, and cook, was pretty darn good. It was a little on the salty side so, mixed with the bland Pad Thai, it balanced out. Even their Thai Tea was a little on the weak-flavored and too-creamy side. The ambiance is pretty legit here and it's probably what kept it at a 4-star review rather than a 3-star one. It's perfect for a date, you could step up to the bar area for a super casual vibe, or you can come here with the fam. The wait staff are totally friendly here and while I didn't love my first experience with the food here, I would totally come here again with friends to try other dishes out. Overall, the food was meh. The ambiance and service was nice. I would come here again with mid standards and hope to be surprised. But if you want a better selection and better value for what you pay, go down to Taste of Thai by Wipa.

    Food was excellent, very nice atmosphere/ decor. Service was friendly and on top of things.

    This is my second dining experience at the Asian 1 in Burlington. I forgot to write a review my first time, so I decided to visit again and rectify my "grievous error" On my first visit I had my favorite Thai dish, which also happens to be this locations most popular, Pineapple Fried Rice. I always order chicken as my protein element. The Pineapple Fried Rice was very tasty. I was definitely NOT disappointed This time I decided to try something different and went with one of my favorite Japanese dishes, Yakisoba. I spent 18 months in Japan and ate a lot of Yakisoba. Asian 1 prepares this dish a bit different from what I remember from my time in Japan. The restaurants in Japan typically prepare their yakisoba in a wok and that imparts a frying element to the dish. Also there is teriyaki in the Japanese version. I have no idea how Asian 1 prepares their yakisoba, but I did not detect any teriyaki and I didn't get a fried taste. Having said that, I still liked Asian 1's version of yakisoba. It was very delicious and they even asked if I wanted it to be spicy. I LOVE spicy foods, so I immediately asked for my teriyaki to be "Thai hot" . I was very happy with the resulting dish and was surprised that it came with my choice of white rice or brown, a leafy salad with peanut sauce dressing, and the Soup du jour (today it was egg drop soup). All of that for just $13.15 (drinks are extra). If you are a fan of Asian cuisine you should definitely check out Asian 1.

    It's AYCE but there is a rule ! So you gotta pace yourself - you can only put in order of 15 items…read moreevery 15 mins. Don't fret- there is a salad and hot bar to kill time with :) otherwise it's good quality for the price. I wasn't fond of the shabushabu so much - sukiyaki broth is exactly that sweet broth or the other is a tonkatsu broth so maybe savory. Still great for the price. Not much dessert tho but it's alright. Different tiers to order from as well, we got the gold tier that covers all and there is a silver tier also depending on what you want to eat.

    First time in today at lunchtime. I had high hopes after driving by several times…read more I'm good with the whole ordering concept and using a tablet to select my food. The problem was... The food. As it started out of the kitchen in individual orders, like tapas, the first thing I noticed were the small portion sizes. Okay, it's all you can eat, so no big deal. But the quality was so poor I tasted several of the dishes and discarded them. Fried California roll, fried chicken, not edible. The beef was all stringy, fibrous, gristle, not fit to eat. I finally found Gyoza on the food bar and filled up on those. I am really dissapointed... The quality is so low but I like the concept. If they can bring the quality of the food up by several hundred percent, I might come back. Don't waste your money on food that isn't edible.

    This pretty food truck sushi. I stopped by because it's there at Loggerodeo and got a Fried Cali…read moreRoll. That thing is as big as Steve Tyler's mouth. Dude looks like a sushi It was so hard to put in my mouth that I had to eat it with a dang fork!!!! Haha! I'm used to eating sushi with chop sticks! It was pretty tasty. Again you are getting sushi in a food truck not something from a restaurant so don't expect something so extravagant, but it's good for what you get. It was pretty tasty for what I got I believe and the guy is super nice, even offered to make any kind of speciality roll I wanted so I asked for avocados on my rolls and that hit good! That truck is also eye catching!

    I was sooooo excited to hear that another food truck was descending upon the Skagit food scene,…read moreeven moreso when I heard it was going to be a sushi truck. So I couldn't wait to check them out! Sadly, it took awhile to figure out where to find them. Initially it was announced they'd be at North Sound Brewing on the weekends. But I stopped there twice and... no truck. I looked for updates on social media, but (alas) still couldn't seem to sync up with them. Then, one random weeknight, we headed to Barley & Brew in Sedro Woolley to see a comedy show, and there was Karuma. Score! At the time, I was recovering from a tummy bug, and didn't want to eat raw fish yet, so I ordered a California Roll and got a beeper to await my order. 45 minutes later... it was ready. And...it was delish. Not to mention HUGE! I couldn't even finish it. Since they're new, I'll give them grace on the long wait and hard-to-findness. But I do hope to run into them again soon (maybe, finally, at North Sound) and give some of their other tasty sounding sushi a try!
