    Food very mediocre. Better places in town if you seek them out. It is convenient though if shopping nearby.

    The rice and broccoli flavor was ok, but basically all the beef was brown colored fat!! Very disappointed.

    This is my absolute favorite sushi restaurant in Connecticut! Their food is so good, whether you…read moreopt for sushi or Chinese, you won't walk away disappointed. Their gyoza tastes homemade and the dipping sauce is so good that I want to drink it. I always order sushi when I dine here. Spicy tuna roll and the James Bond specialty roll are my go-to's. Hubby usually orders the chicken teriyaki. They make the best teriyaki this side of the river. The service here is fantastic. Jenny is the sweetest and she never forgets a face. We love her!

    Oriental Cafe has really nailed it the last couple of times I've gone…read more Earlier this year, I went here for dine in. It was a holiday weekend and we were the only ones dining in, but takeout orders were booming and our waitress (a very friendly and welcoming short Asian woman) was doing an amazing job checking in on us, and running over to the takeout area constantly to give people orders. On that day, I really enjoyed my Miso Soup (a perfect small portion to warm me up) and Teriyaki Tofu, although it came with a ton of onions that I did not care for. It came out sizzling hot and seemed to continue to cook after it was on my table, so the onion flavor became really strong and almost gave me a headache, but I ate around it. The veggies were fresh and the tofu had a great crispy breading on it. The sauce was very thick and a little went a long way - I almost wish it were a little thinner so it could spread more evenly across my food to give it some moisture. Today I ordered takeout online through the Seamless site. It said food would be ready in 10-15 minutes, which felt crazy fast. Lo and behold, about 12 minutes after I placed my order, I got a text that it was already ready for pickup! I couldn't grab it until well over 20 minutes had gone by, and even by the time I got home, everything was still perfectly hot and nothing had to be reheated. A young man gave me my order and I was in and out of the plaza in 60 seconds or less, so efficient and no wait! I tried the Teriyaki Tofu again today because I really did love it, but keep forgetting to ask for no onions. I also got the Peanut Avocado Maki Roll with Spicy Mayo - I've never seen this combo for sushi and had to try it! The seaweed had a really strong flavor that surprisingly overpowered the peanuts, how odd. I almost wish this came with some sort of peanut sauce to really double down on the flavor! It was good and fresh but a little less exciting than I thought it'd be. Their menu has a wide range of both Chinese and Japanese dishes. There's plenty of parking in the shared lot, and you have to go down some steps to the bottom floor of the plaza. The steps are a little tilted, so watch out. I'm not sure if there is a mobility impaired accessible way to access this floor. Prices seem reasonable and takeout was very fast. I'll be back!

    This place is in the mall so we had not so high expectations for decor…read more But the food was very low on taste and very skimpy portions. I ordered the steak and scallops I received three scallops and small pieces of steak and enough rice for two dinners. My wife ordered the steak and shrimp she also received three small shrimp and a few small pieces of beef.

    My family and I have always enjoyed this restaurant for years. When ever family or friends come to…read morevisit this is our goto place. Food is always awesome, service is always good, chefs are always awesome. The problem I have is they charge an 18% tip charge to your check automatically. They do not come out and tell you this, they just rubber stamp it on the bottom of your receipt. This is almost unreadable unless you know it is there. The lighting is very low so it is close to impossible to notice. We paid an additional 18% not realizing they had already done this. We paid close to an $80 tip!!!! We love this place, but this is like some sort of robbery adding a charge without telling us in person. If you're not doing something underhanded then be honest and up front with your customers. Don't put a faded rubber stamp on the bottom of a receipt in a dimly lit restaurant. Check your receipt people! This is a scam that needs to stop! We are extremely disappointed. Please realize we have absolutely NO complaints with the food or service, we just don't like when an establishment takes total advantage of its customers financially. We pay a pretty hefty price for the food and service at these places! The tip is our choice, NOT YOURS!

We ordered a salad with ginger and sesame dressing, Tom Yum soup which was delicious and authentic, veg tempura, some eggplant which came with rice. We were pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food and the service as well, which was good. Although a very modest although seemingly haphazard interior layout, the choice and quality of their food was just great. We need more of these types of food places in our area serving up a variety of food choices.

    Rice: 3/10- the rice has a grainy/powder consistency and is a bit bland…read more Chicken: 3/10 - the skin appears crispy, but upon biting into it, the skin and meat were gummy. Noodles: 6/10- The beef was very chewy. However, the flavor was decent. Gyoza: 7/10- It would be nice if they were fried on both sides. Would definitely order again General Tsos: 1/10- chewy, gummy, slimy. Eggroll: 10/10- kind of hard to mess up. Portions: 10/10- thelis order could easily feed 4 Service: 0/10- I couldn't make requests on DoorDash, so I called in and asked for no vegetables in the rice and the lo mein. They confirmed the request and still added them to the order. Annoying there was A LOT of vegetables. They seemed a bit taken aback that I called about the food I'm paying for. I will not order from them again
