The spot also has savory corn dogs. I got one with cheese and potatoes, and it was Yum. Perfectly fried and on a stick and it comes packaged in a little box which is very cute.. They also have bubble tea one of my favorite beverages on the planet and this place does the bubbles OK though my drink could've had a few more bubbles. They also sell some little cutie, things like keychains and charms for your crocs. The corn dogs are about seven dollars but they are worth it and the donuts are three or four dollars but also worth it.. Service was very friendly and everything about this place is so cute and yummy. There is meter parking on the street and they're doing some construction, but I found a spot

Moochi & You is a local restaurant that serves a couple dozen flavors of Japanese mochi donuts…read more(e.g., black sesame, taro, matcha, Sakura rose, honeydew, and Oreo), four flavors of Korean corn dogs (original, hot Cheetos, ramen, and potato), and a couple dozen customizable flavors of fruit and milk teas, smoothies, and sparkling waters. My husband and I ate here one time. A small amount of indoor seating was available. The employees took many minutes to even say hello to us. Their service improved after another customer noticed my taking photos and asked if they were for social media and reviews. Here are my ratings for what we ate: Mochi donuts - 4.5 stars - I ordered three donuts, one Black Chocolate, one Strawberry, and one Pineapple. I thought that they tasted very rich and good. Crispy Ramen Corn Dog - 3 stars - I ordered a corn dog with half sausage and half mozzarella and a side of spicy mayo. The sausage and mozzarella tasted savory, and the ramen and powdered sugar tasted sweet. My husband and I thought that it was OK overall. Brown-Sugar Bubble Tea - 4.5 stars - My husband chose this flavor of tea, and it was his favorite thing here. The total price was $23 plus tax and tip.

I've had the poke on occasion, and the options and quality are good, but I'd only put them a little above Giant Eagle's or Dang poke's.

There is a large menu on the wall, but they also have print menus as well. You can select from re-designed bowls or create your own. They also have a variety of bubble tea options. Basically the flavor combinations are endless! I ended up ordering strawberry milk tea with blueberry boba for my kids and they said that it was one of the best bobas that they've had. I ordered the spicy tuna poke bowl. They asked if I wanted it as is or if I needed any customizations which I thought was a nice touch. I kept it as is and really loved it. It was a perfect combination of flavors and every bite was enjoyable. As much as I'd love to try the other flavors or even create my own, why mess with perfection. I'll definitely order it again.

I was greeted warmly when I came in and the lady helped me through the ordering process. I love that you can build your own bowl or choose from some prefab options. I absolutely love tuna and was so happy that they had an ahi tuna option. I chose the tuna poke and absolutely loved it. It was so fresh and flavorful. I had it with brown rice, corn, pineapple, cilantro, cucumbers, ginger and tomatoes (which tasted weird for some reason). I topped it with ponzu sauce and furikake which both gave it great flavor. I was there towards the end of the day and as the man who made my dish was leaving, he remembered my name and said thank you. It was such a nice touch. I told him how much I loved it. I will definitely be back. They have spring rolls and dumplings too plus other poke bowl combos that I want to try.

I highly recommend going here for your boba or coffee fix!

Also available are several toppings (e.g., honey, mango, and crystal). I bought only one drink--dragonfruit tea with peach boba. The employee served me quickly and courteously. The tea cost several dollars, it was a good size, and I really liked its flavors.

This sesame chicken had large chunks of chicken with juicy meat, crispy breading, and a flavorful sauce. On the side was white rice that was perfectly steamed. General Tso's chicken - 4.5 stars (average of my 4 stars and my husband's 5 stars) - This General Tso's did NOT taste spicy at all.

I stopped by here a while ago with my family for dinner. This wasn't my first trip to Eiwa but it…read morewas my twins' first visit. This restaurant is located right on McKnight Road somewhat near the intersection with Siebert. The inside is fairly large with seating in an L-shaped configuration around the kitchen. We were seated near the back on one side where the lighting was styled like lanterns and there was also a fun mural on the wall in an almost manga style. For dinner on this evening I decided to go with the Golden Katsu Curry Ramen while my wife went with the tonkotsu ramen and my kids split a happy cat noodles. My ramen was described as served with house-made curry broth simmered with tender potato and carrot chunks, wavy noodles and topped with a crispy cutlet, half marinated egg, sweet corn and scallions. My wife's was described as pork broth with thin noodles, pork belly chashu, nori, bamboo shoots, fish cake, kikurage mushroom, half marinated egg, sweet corn and scallions. My kids' meal was described as chicken nuggets, soy sauce-based plain noodles, assorted vegetables, half marinated egg and one piece of mochi ice cream. They first brought out the wrong item for my kids but once we mentioned it they quickly corrected it and brought out the right dish. My curry ended up being really good. The chicken cutlet was crispy, the noodles were bouncy and I enjoyed the sweetness from the corn. The star of the show for me though was the Japanese curry which had a rich flavor with warm and inviting spices. My wife loved her ramen as well and we were all impressed with the quality of the kids' meal, especially the chicken and the flavor of the noodles. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. Everyone in my family enjoyed their food and we appreciated that it felt both fun and family friendly.

If you get it in a cup instead of a cone you can add a number of toppings, or they also have parfaits. Of course in addition to the ice cream they have Matcha drinks as well as a variety of other drinks. My friend got a brown sugar Boba and it looked creamy and delicious. I know I'm going to stop by here frequently to try many different menu items.
