Was told no, they only make sushi. So let me get this straight, you own a sushi restaurant and we were going to order sushi, and a bowl of white rice, she refused. Paid $4 for the bottled waters we had opened and left. Went across the bridge to the Hibachi/sushi restaurant, full, service was great and they could actually fill a bowl with white rice. A well deserved 1 star.

Hi Everyone, Ya,…read moreknow, maybe you don't feel like bagging your lunch today, or making diner tonight, but you've got to eat! What ever will you do? What type of food do you want to eat, now or later? Questions, questions, those nagging questions. Well we here, in the peanut gallery, may have a solution for you today. If you enjoy eating Sushi (Japanese cuisine, in which raw or cooked fish can be inserted into or be placed a top a rice roll with other ingredients). Now I thought that Sushi was ONLY raw fish (which I know you knew, but I didn't, lol), and Sushmi which I thought was actually only cooked fish inserted in, or a top a rice roll, with other ingredients, such as seaweed, cream cheese, imitation crab (I.e. pressed white fish) etc... But, bust my buttons, Sushmi is actually Hindu female name, not a name for Asian cusine, which means welcoming or pleasant, (which I know you knew, but I didn't, lol), but I digress, along with some other Chinese classics then we can highly recommend you visit AKOMEYA right here in Bluffton, SC. Why? Because my friends, their food entrees are actually very savory and delicious treats. Their ambiance is inviting, neat, and clean. Their Servers are friendly, personable, and helpful. Their prices are affordable, that's right, as in, most of us can actually afford to pay for them. For instance, they offer four lunch (ONLY) Chinese meals that are relatively healthy as prepared with a delicate balanced of ingredients that are tastebuds delight. And yes, Jethro, them there "viddles" will fill your belly and keep you a comin back for more helpins! But for how much? $10.00 per entree. Now that them their is an affordable price for lunch, even for Jethro da Bodeen. Their diner menu offers many delightful and tasty tantalizing entrees as well which we have also have enjoyed multiple times. So if you have a hankerin for some good viddles like our man Jethro, it's time to get on down to AKOMEYA and git sum. BTW, Akomeya is also a specialty rice shop with locations at many major train stations in Tokyo. Although rice is their main focus, they also offer an impressive selection of kitchen goods, condiments, and snacks--making it a must-visit for cooking enthusiasts or anyone in search of thoughtful, Japan-made gifts (which I know you knew, but I didn't ). Enjoy!

We had no intentions of ever trying a restaurant that does Pizza and Hibachi , but we gave a friend…read morewho is a local his choice of restaurants. And were we all pleasantly surprised. There were 5 of us. Two of us ordered hibachi. I had the shrimp hibachi and the other was a steak combo. Both were tasty and well cooked. A bowl of miso soup was included and was Japanese restaurant worthy. One had a meat calzone and one had lasagna. Both said they were very good. The final had a house salad. It looked average. Our server Kelly was friendly and efficient, timing her visits to the table well. The restaurant has a bar and grill vibe with large tvs over the bar area running the length of much of the dining room. Beer/wine selection were all big brewers. Would be nice to have a few local brews on tap. Italian and Japanese? I'd still question any restaurant with this combination, but Ryan's pulls it off very well. Prices are reasonable.
