Whenever we come to town, we eat here at least 1 day, sometimes multiple times in a trip. My husband joined us for dinner on his first trip to Virginia and he was speechless. The sushi is outstanding. The Alaska Hand Roll, sunset roll, and sunrise rolls are my top favorites. The owner, Star, is the sweetest and I'm always greeted with a big hug. The cocktails are easy to drink and get the job done. Whether you're sitting at the sushi bar, regular bar, or at a table, you won't be disappointed. I will come back here forever

Waiter didn't bring us water or refill until we asked. I overheard a man next to us saying that their portions had gotten significantly smaller. Their 2 specialty rolls were decent. Not out of this world but not terrible. If you're craving a lunch special or even good sushi this place isn't it. I personally love sushi oshii in Herndon. Best of luck to yall !

I have tried this dish before and we actually used the pork as a filling for soft buns with scallions. It was amazing. Another must order for me is the Taiwan style fried chicken. It is honestly one of the best. Crispy, flavorful, and very satisfying. Do not miss the string beans with low salt duck egg as well. The flavor is unique and really good. I really enjoy Taiwanese style cooking. It hits different. The flavors feel cleaner and more balanced, almost like a lighter and healthier take compared to typical Chinese dishes. These dishes definitely keep me coming back.

The won ton in chili sauce was not really one of my faves. The sauce lacked in spice but thank goodness for a side of hot chili sauce. I did enjoy my crispy beef.

It was the first time my young kids had been to a hibachi, and they loved it. The atmosphere was quiet and peaceful. They had it decorated beautifully.

We got edamame and spring rolls for appetizers, which were yummy, and the chicken with vegetables, fried rice and noodles. Everything was great! I have a feeling we will be back again!

This place was meh. We've been here a couple of times and I think the ownership has changed…read more The service was subpar. The waitress came to check on us twice in the beginning and after our food arrived we never saw her again. It was not until 20 or 25minutes later that another waitress came by to check on us. Not sure what the hang up was as the restaurant was mostly empty. The side of noodles was weird. I was expecting asian flavors, but we got spaghetti dunked in soy sauce and covered with black pepper. This was also on the kids menu as well, my son could barely eat it due to how spicy it was. My other kid got a Ramen bowl and that was essentially the same noodles as above in a pool of chicken broth that tasted like it was dumped out of a box. It was very bad. Usually when we go to Noku in the Village, my kid devours the Ramen bowl, but this one was left untouched. The maki rolls were OK, but pricy and not worth their value. The rainbow roll, I believe, only had 4 pieces. Also, the pieces of fish on top of the rainbow were very small and underwhelming. The fact that it cost more than our usual sushi places added insult to injury. The Philli roll was more cream cheese than salmon. Finally, some minor issues that demonstrate that the staff doesnt really care: the waitress poured the beer so fast that it was 90%head, and she just moved on; and, when our sushi tray came out the wasabi and ginger were missing. In my 15+ years of eating sushi in all types of places, all over America i have never had a situation where the ginger and wasabi were left out. This was not a major issue for me as mistake happen, no big deal. However, given the poor experience this did not help the matter.

Got the Salmon Lover meal for takeout for $27 before tax…read more Miso soup was above average; it had a stronger miso flavor. The salmon nigiri was yummy; that one was my favorite. The spicy salmon roll was much better than I expected; the sauce packed a surprising punch. Sashimi was decent. The salmon roll was sadly a letdown; it wasn't even as good as some I've eaten at midrange all you can eat restaurants. Unfortunately, I've had better salmon sushi/sashimi for less money or the same amount in DC and even NYC. For the price and for what I got, although nothing was considered bad, it's just not enough for me to return.

Since it was a weekend, there was no lunch special but we ordered off their regular dinner menu. Food was delicious as always. Our portions were HUGE. Each person had their own take home box. I ordered the teriyaki salmon, with included fresh veggies. My salmon portion made me two meals. We ordered a couple of appetizers ( dumplings and tempura) and they were cooked fresh. After our meal, we were served complimentary mochi and ice cream. Those little bites were just perfect to cleanse the palette.

Okada is a Pretty decent Japanese restaurant that serves Sushi and Ramen…read more I stopped by on a winter weekend while visiting the One Loudoun area. I ordered the D49. Spicy Chicken Miso Ramen Dinner as I came at 3 PM which was a little after the dinner hours. It was pretty good. Came with bamboo shoots, seaweed, and boiled egg and the spicy chili sauce on the side. I asked for it on side as I wanted to experience the taste w/o spice and then add it myself if needed. Overall, it was pretty tasty. Nothing outstanding, but maybe my taste buds weren't functioning. It was not bad overall, and was filling as I hadn't a proper breakfast even. I would rate it 7/10. Not bad, and the cost for dine-in was a little over $20, which wasn't bad but not cheap either. For the service, I'll give it a pass. Overall, impressed with this Japanese restaurant and hopefully will be back to try something else on the menu, if I find myself in the One Loudoun area again.

The blueberry mojito was DELICIOUS! The appetizers were pretty tasty too. However, I was not overly impressed with my main meal. I ordered a hibachi combo, the filet mignon and chicken. I was honestly disappointed, the flavors were lacking in my opinion. Service was attentive and portions were decent. Sad to say it, but I do think there are better Hibachi restaurants in the area with comparable pricing.

However, they do a good takeout business, as we noticed several people come in to pick up their orders. Before coming here, we looked at their menu. Thus, we knew what we wanted when we got here. Service was great. The staff here is friendly and efficient. Our server checked on us more than once during our meal. To drink, my husband ordered a Kirin Light beer while I ordered a glass of plum wine. Some Japanese places fill the glass too high, but here, the portion size was reasonable. I ordered "the poke bowl". I chose salmon for my fish. This bowl consists of "Sushi-grade fish topped with vegetables, mixed with poke sauce over a choice of mixed greens or rice". I chose the rice. Before coming here, I looked up "poke sauce." I found a website called "pokebowlny.com." This is the description they gave: "traditional poke sauce blends soy sauce, sesame oil, and often rice vinegar, along with aromatics like garlic and ginger. This classic combination makes the fish taste fresher, the vegetables more vibrant, and the rice more flavorful." The vegetables in the bowl were kernel corn, seaweed salad, and cucumbers. I really enjoyed having this meal! All the flavors worked well together. I look forward to having it again. Along with the poke bowl, a bowl of miso soup is included. That, too, was quite good, and it came to the table quite warm. My husband ordered "Tuna Don," which consists of "fresh tuna sashimi over rice & vegetables. His entrée came with both miso soup and a small side salad. The bowl had a big slice of radish, some seaweed salad, and the usual shredded daikon. The wasabi was really spicy - he could feel it in his nose and sinus cavity - it'll take your head off. The generous portion of tuna was large with thicker slices than he'd ever seen before.

The menu was very extensive serving Japanese and Korean dishes. I started off with the Yellow Tail Collar for my appetizer. I was excited when I saw the size of the portion being served to me. Although, it was very dry which was a let down. It was also a bit bland as well. For my main dish I got a rice bowl, an unagi bowl to be exact. Again, it was just adequate. Thankfully the bowl was a generous amount of food. Sadly, it was just a bit one dimensional and I got tired of eating it after awhile. Also, I felt like the bones were a little more pronounced than what I am use to when eating eel. Therefore, my experience was average. I may give it another shot if I am in the area again.

Attached is a picture of the what the Lion King Roll is supposed to look like and what we received. The crab meat on top looks like a spaghetti. The end pieces of the roll (that didn't have the tail) were all avocado and not even a little shrimp, I know that skimping out on the ends is normal but no shrimp at all is ridiculous. After eating two pieces my stomach has been hurting for the last 7 hours. The last time we got lunch from here the rolls we normally love did not taste the same, but at least they didn't get us sick so we thought maybe it was unlucky. They need to fire whoever is making the rolls during lunch because this quality control is terrible.
