When you first enter, you're immediately greeted at the host stand. To the left is some cushioned seating and they have a punny neon sign that reads "I'll Love You Pho Ever." I enjoy this Asian fusion restaurant because it has so many different options! When you look at the menu, you'll notice it has quite a variety to choose from. I really enjoyed their coconut shrimp that came with a side of macaroni salad and white rice. Make sure you're dunking your coconut shrimp in that sauce! It was tangy and delicious. Really enjoy the whole vibe & had a great experience dining here.

Kuma Sushi was a pleasant surprise. The ambiance is contemporary with a unique feel. The space is…read moreopen and airy, making it comfortable and inviting. One thing I noticed was the mix of different tables and chairs throughout the restaurant. It almost feels like a hodgepodge of furniture, but somehow it works and fits the contemporary vibe rather than feeling out of place. The food was excellent, the service was friendly, and the prices were very reasonable. We received our food surprisingly fast, which was a nice bonus. There was a mistake with one of our rolls, but the staff handled it well. They quickly remade the roll and brought us a replacement at no charge, which I really appreciated. One of the highlights was a custom roll with jalapeño, avocado, and asparagus. I added cream cheese and had it deep fried, and it honestly tasted like a sushi version of a jalapeño popper. It was absolutely amazing and something I would order again in a heartbeat. Overall, it was a great experience from start to finish. Good food, good service, reasonable prices, and a unique atmosphere. I would definitely recommend giving Kuma Sushi a try.

Had ordered from the restaurant before on DoorDash and this time I decided to pop in. I was…read morepleasantly surprised at how cute the space is. The parking is a bit of a challenge right now due to the construction in downtown. However, there is a lot right next to them that you can park in and there is also parking on the street directly in front of their door. The restaurant is modern and decorated in Asian theme. The bathroom and the restaurant is very clean. And the staff was very attentive, professional, and very pleasant. I enjoyed the food I ordered via DoorDash, but this time I got it fresh right out of the kitchen and the counter, and it was amazing. We started with the jalapeño bomb, and mixed tempura in a size small. Both those appetizers were delicious and perfect for sharing. Then we ordered a California roll on soy paper, the Kuma special sushi roll, and the creamy salmon roll. Everything was fresh and very shareable. We could've easily shared our meal with two other people needless to say we had leftovers to take home. I definitely recommend this place and I look forward to going back. There are other things on the menu such as fried rice, udon, and teriyaki plates. They also had a couple of desserts, so I am definitely planning on trying one of those. Enjoy!

We ordered the following: - BBQ Galbi (beef): so tender and perfectly seasoned.

I'd probably have the sauce on the side next time. Highly recommend this place and we'll definitely be back!

I do know sometimes there are open tables and people can't be seated right away probably due to a shift change. There may be tables but no servers so people do have to wait sometimes. I did see a negative review about this but keep in mind, if you have worked in restaurants you would understand the principle about seating tables with no servers as they are closing out for the new shift servers to clock in. Also blocking the door is blocking the exit which is against code as it has to be clear for emergencies. All in all this place is amazing. The hostesses are so sweet and the servers are great. Will continue going.

I was craving pho and decided to give Saigon Bento a try. It's a little confusing because there's a Saigon restaurant and then there's this place, Saigon Bento. There's also a Saigon Bento #2. Apparently Saigon restaurant has been around for forever and is highly recommended, but was much farther, so I decided to come here instead. I honestly just like the meatballs in my pho and they were able to accommodate just this instead of their other preset dishes. It was good and packaged well for takeout! It was ready super quickly!

Somewhere between the kitchen and the table they experience a full existential crisis and dissolve into a noodle-flavored fog. You don't eat this pho so much as you drink it with regret. Then there's the robot. I want to be clear: the robot is trying its best. But a robot is not a coworker, it's a Roomba with delusions of grandeur, and pairing it with exactly one (1) visibly overwhelmed human does not equal "efficient staffing," it equals "understaffed with extra steps." I've seen this establishment's entire org chart and it's one guy and a trash can with wheels. The Vietnamese coffee and salted cold foam, though? Genuinely incredible. Immaculate. The only reason my card has ever been charged here more than once. I racked up a small fortune in reward points on the strength of that coffee alone -- and then went to redeem them, only to discover the website has apparently also fallen into a noodle-textured crisis and is completely down. So now I have points sitting there like Monopoly money for a bank that closed. Great coffee. Great foam. Genuinely inspired idea for a business. Just... catastrophically executed, like someone had a beautiful vision of a pho franchise and then handed the keys to a single tired employee and his robot intern. America needs a real pho franchise. This is not it.

The meat was great steak that was not chewy and super soft but charbroiled perfectly. The noodles were not dry and super fresh.

This place absolutely stomps out places like flame broiler etc and just stole my business 100%. Definitely looking forward to coming back here. The bowl I got was huge portions and I ended up having the rest for lunch the following day that was just as good as when it was fresh. Can't wait to try more things here.

There were plastic chairs and tables. Plenty of seating available. People seemed to trickle in around the early evening. When I walked in they didn't have a line, so there was no wait. I ordered the Shrimp Spring Rolls (with Beef) that was on their menu board. I think it was deli meat, which was ok, but not what I had expected. Tasted how you imagine. Even though I had it packaged "to-go," I chose to eat it inside while I waited on my friend to arrive. The lady behind the counter was very attentive and when she saw my sauce was low, she offered to refill it. I do wish the sauce had a stronger peanut flavor. Overall, it was decent.

Your platters, sauces, and rice are all at the station with the Kim chi and side dishes. The only missing were the big lettuce wraps and zucchini that I would usually get with the meal. It was good but not great. The vents are basically there for decor as they don't work properly. I was catching all the smoke into my face and clothes but you can smell it through out the restaurant. There's no service besides the occasionally change out of grills when it gets too smokey and if you dare to refill your meats to avoid a up-charge of $20 for having too much leftovers. They do get busy so I see that there are people who actually like the self serve buffet option.
