    Spicy Ginger Pork, gyoza, shrimp dumplings, spicy tuna roll
    John B.

    Just my kind of place! Small unassuming place you would miss if you didn't have a GPS. So I was in the mood for Japanese takeout and this place nailed it. Very good menu with lots of choices. Reasonably priced and extremely friendly service. Inside doesn't have much in the way of seating which is fine. Actually a small Asian grocery is part of this place. So cool. The food is fresh, carefully prepared (looks pretty and appetizing) and tasty. Spicy ginger pork was very yummy. Not too much spice. Gyoza were amazing. I could make a meal out of that. Shrimp dumplings were ok. Could be from frozen. Sushi was good. Fresh, nothing crazy but it is a side along with the box. Lots of food for the price. I mean look at the pic! I will def be back!

    Chicken Cutlet Box
    Emily J.

    A lot of people recommended this place, and I'm so glad I went. Ordered the udon, the chicken cutlet box with a spicy tuna roll instead of California roll, and a side of rice. Everything was fantastic. So simple, so comforting, even though this isn't something I grew up with. I did a little shopping while waiting for my food, and while there wasn't a huge selection, there were some great staples for me to restock my pantry at home. The food was well-packaged for the drive back, and nothing spilled. The people were kind, the place was clean, the food was great...what more do you need?

    Salmon lovers, (miso soup and salad came with it) and dumplings

    This sushi was some of the best I've had in awhile and I eat a lot of sushi. The rice was so fresh and soft, the fish was fresh, the miso soup was perfect and the dumpling sauce was so tangy. I haven't had ginger dressing since moving to the area and the salad was so refreshing here. I am so glad we went there today!! The deal was amazing as well. Such good prices! I even tried a new drink and loved it! Overall great experience.

    Spicy pork ginger bento box! Seasoned so well that I order it every time.  I'll try to check out the rest of the menu next time.

    Bento-Ya is an Asian grocery store and cafe hybrid. The selection of groceries is small, down to the necessities/staples, however their menu is as plentiful as any other Japanese restaurant minus the hibachi. You have an array of sushi, kitchen dishes, and bento boxes to choose from. I've had the spicy pork ginger bento box and it's packed with flavor and not spicy to me. The bento boxes are good portions and includes the main entree, miso soup, ginger salad, seaweed salad, pork dumplings, rice, and half of a cali or spicy tuna roll. Place and pay for your meal order at the counter. There's a small seating area in the back room past the two grocery aisles. It's not ideal for large groups, more so a quick dine in spot. Don't expect alcohol and wait service where you can spend hours there shooting the sake. It's not that type of venue. There's a small parking lot, but if that's ever full, there's residential street parking available. The owners are friendly, the location is on a main road, the food is good, and you can do some shopping too.

    This is our favorite sushi joint. Eating area located in the back of an authentic Asian store. Prices are good and service is great.

    Good sushi. Decent prices. Grocery store atmosphere, definitely not what anyone would consider to be a restaurant.

    The Saltbox Smokehouse - Pulled pork on kaiser roll

    The Saltbox Smokehouse

    Stopping in right at opening, we were greeted by kind staff members. We wanted to try everything,…read moreso we put in an order for brisket, pulled pork, bacon, and kielbasa. Alongside the meats, we wanted to try their sides as well which consisted of mac and cheese, baked beans, corn bread, cole slaw and salt potatoes. For the brisket which we looked forward to the most, we found these to be drier than we would have liked. Paired with sauce, they were just okay. For the pulled pork, we found this to be phenomenal. Smoky and delicious all on its own. Definitely a highlight for us. For the bacon, we ordered 3 different kinds, and we found the flavors didn't really shine through. Although generously thick cut and cooked perfectly. The kielbasa was a bit of a letdown. We found these to be on the dry side, but the flavors were okay. For the sides, the mac and cheese we found the pasta to be a bit overcooked and overall, on the bland side. The baked beans tasted great, no complaints there. The corn bread wasn't anything special and neither were the salt potatoes. Although we did enjoy the salt potatoes and found they were exactly how they ought to be. The cole slaw was also on the bland side and tasted more of the fridge than any flavor. We've heard good things about their smoked wings which we had to try before leaving. We ordered a 5-piece with their spicy Asian sauce. The wings were delicious, the smokiness flavor penetrated throughout the entire wing, but the sauce was very salty which took away from the natural delicious taste of the smoked wings. Overall, a good experience which some seasoning issues but would revisit if we were back in the area.

    Delicious bbq lunch, immediately off Rte 104 West, Sodus. We've heard rave reviews and now we know…read morewhy. Friendly staff. Clean cozy indoor dining or you can eat outside on the many picnic tables. BBQ smoked wings, pulled pork sandwich, BLT salad with smoked turkey....so good. Plenty off street parking.

    I finally checked this spot off my list today and it did not disappoint! I built my own sub and…read moreeverything was so fresh and crisp. The shop has a great, approachable vibe--it's super clean and feels like a neighborhood staple. The best part was definitely the service; the staff was so patient and friendly while I was putting my order together, which makes a huge difference. I'm already craving another one... I might actually be back tomorrow!

    I walked into Desiato's hungover. It's a sub shop. Not much ambiance to speak of, but I don't mean…read morethat in a bad way. It's just an efficient system for making subs and transferring them into my mouth. I said hi to the lady at the counter, and our brief conversation led me to believe that she was also hungover. Sensing this kindred spirit, I asked, "If you were me, what would you order?" "Hot steak sub," came the immediate answer. I believed her, and appreciated that she didn't react with disgust at the thought of being me. So I got a hot steak sub. The largest size they had, with mushrooms and peppers and onions and provolone. It came out, and it was massive. And delicious. Tender steak, plenty of flavor, everything I needed in that moment. I only ate about 3/4 of it, because I knew I'd regret eating the whole thing. Not because of what it would do to my insides, but because my wife loves a steak sub, and I wanted to bring her some. So I did, and she loved it too.
