We came specifically for Amboy, ranked #9th on The World's Best Burger list and created by Alvin Cailan, the founder of Eggslut. We arrived just in time to take advantage of the Snackflation Special, $9 can you get a Single Smashed Cheeseburger, fries and a drink. Just from holding the burger in our hands, those perfectly toasted sesame buns invited us in for something special. From the perfect melted cheese, smashed beef patty with to the crispy edges. The burger was flawless, and incredibly well crafted. Nothing was overdone allowing the quality to shine through. This was one of the best burgers we've had In a long time, and easy one top places to circle back everytime we're in town.

I have fantasies. One of them is being consumed by a burger, instead of the other way around. This…read moreis what happened here. The umami of the dry aged meat enveloped and coated my soul, and everything became unreal. The flavor of the chili is incredibly delicious and complex. The cheese, wow. The level of char how it starts more outside and as you travel into the center it becomes even juicier. So you get all the texture profiles of a smash burger, with that of a gourmet burger. Just every category of what a burger should be, this thing nailed it out of the park. If you don't try this burger you really need to just buzz off and not call yourself a foodie.

Finding a sushi place that consistently delivers is rare, but Mikomi has been reliable every time…read morewe've gone. The sushi tastes fresh, and one thing I appreciate is the rolls are always made well, nothing falling apart halfway through eating, which honestly says a lot about consistency. My kids were big fans of the tonkatsu ramen and finished it without complaints (which parents know is its own review category). The happy hour prices are also worth mentioning because you can order a decent amount without feeling guilty afterward. The biggest standout for us was our server, Bang. Friendly, attentive, and especially patient with my kids' food preferences. He was accommodating when we asked to modify dishes and gave recommendations. Service like that makes a restaurant memorable. This has become an easy choice when we want sushi in the area, especially for family dinners.

The food here was absolutely delicious--perfectly seasoned and incredibly flavorful! The ambience…read morealso deserves a shout-out, as it has a really beautiful, aesthetic Japanese vibe. However, there is definitely room for improvement with the service, which was just okay. The biggest issue, though, was the bugs. We were constantly swatting away flying mosquitoes that kept landing near our food, which really took away from the dining experience. Management should definitely invest in some discreet mosquito zappers to keep the space comfortable and the customers happy. I'd love to come back if the pest situation gets sorted out!

This was such a great restaurant for a Sunday lunch! My family and I all wanted different things…read morebut we all agreed on Japanese cuisine. We were seated in a cozy booth and our server took our drink orders. Pop music from the 90s/2000s blasted from the speakers but it created a fun ambiance! We ordered hot sake, Sapporo beer, chicken karaage, gyoza, yellowtail carpaccio, a chicken teriyaki bento box, tonkatsu ramen, and two different rolls (Baja and Bomb Diggity). Everything came out paced well and our server was awesome. We never went without and we were checked on plenty of times. Food was fantastic - the yellowtail tasted so fresh and the sushi rolls were "bomb diggity"!! Everyone enjoyed their meals and I wouldn't hesitate to return to try different items from their menu. There is literally something for everyone but the menu also isn't overwhelming. Parking was easy and plentiful on a Sunday afternoon. This was a 5-star meal for sure.

We ordered both the wagyu donburi and wagyu steak bites, and the meat was rich, tender, and literally melted in my mouth. The wagyu paired really well with the rice and each bite felt super indulgent. The Wagyu Sunshine was a nice contrast because the mango salsa added a refreshing citrusy brightness that helped balance the richness. We also ordered the Ginza sushi platter, which was beautifully presented with each nigiri coming on its own plate. The fish tasted fresh and buttery and made for a fun presentation. The chicken katsu was another solid dish -- crispy on the outside while still juicy inside. Also worth mentioning: they have a sushi roll deal where the second roll is 50% off, along with beer and sake specials which make it even better for groups. Overall, a great spot if you're craving sushi, wagyu, and izakaya-style food with plenty of options.

Tried to recreate Xian s spicy cumin lamb noods and while it didn't come close it was decent.
