    I asked for two shrimp rolls opened these to find a ton of cheese.

    I work up the street and I love Chinese food so they had a loyal customer until today the woman's attitude has always been a little funky she never smiles she grimly says thank you sometimes but most of the time she's quick and cold which is fine as long as the food is good I'll pay whatever but today I ordered two shrimp rolls which is what I usually get on my lunch break when I'm short on time and I get to work and it's two cheesesteak rolls in the bag I have never eaten a cheesesteak roll in my life I call her and tell her and she's like no you ordered a cheesesteak roll then she's like OK if you bring it in I'll give you the shrimp rolls like am I being punk shrimp rolls are only like one dollar I can't believe she was serious and I won't be back such a weird situation. I was hungry the rest of my work day. Here's a picture of whatever the flip she gave me .

    Six large shrimp rolls, they've cut back on the size of the shrimp and the amount of shrimp, although they are not those tiny shrimps you find in many egg rolls, still tasty=$7.50 Eight crab rangoons, like any one else's now, not over stuffed, still tasty, but I think I'll skip them on my next order=$3.95 Eight fried chicken wings and drumettes, very crispy and meaty, hubby loved them=$3.50 Ten large fried sea scallops, barely coated and so tender, a pleasant surprise, for $3.95 are they serious? Where else could you find a bargain like this? Sesame shrimp, so many large shrimp, too much breading for me, great sauce and lots of crisp veggies=$9.25 General Tso's shrimp, nice and spicy, hubby ordered this and the sesame shrimp, he likes all of that breading more than I do, but plentiful on the shrimp and veggies=$9.25 Crispy shrimp, barely coated with panko and black pepper, served on a mix of lettuce and Chinese cabbage, these were smaller shrimp, but I really enjoyed these, it kind of ruined it when we were spitting out the shells that they did not remove, we quickly learned to peel them, but there goes the delicious coating ;+{ =$9.25 Jumbo shrimps and bay scallops, a real winner, no breading, cooked to perfection and swimming in a fabulous garlic sauce with crisp veggies=$9.25 Seafood delight, don't order it folks, it was to have lobster and it did have half of the smallest tail you have ever seen, so over cooked and chewy and slices of fake crab meat to replace the lobster, since crab is not even listed in the description, a fair amount of shrimps and bay scallops all tender, along with crispy vegetables=$11.95 Shrimp lo mein, still very good, the amount of shrimp is plentiful, but the size has gotten smaller, one quart=$7.25 Kung Pao shrimp, one of my favorites and they do it just right, large halves of fresh mushrooms, large pieces of onion, scallions and peppers, love the sauce and plenty of large shrimp and peanuts=$8.75 Shrimp fried rice, I even paid extra for them to add egg to the dish and it was still very minimal and they still can not cook rice, it was so under cooked, I will not order this again.=$6.75 + $1.00 for the missing egg. Szechuan Shrimp, another one of my favorites and they do it justice!=$8.75 Shrimp tempura roll, outstanding, their wasabi kicks ass and they are not chintzy with it or the pickled ginger=Hello $4.00! Yay! Boston Roll, love this stuff, I could eat it daily, especially for what it costs=$4.00! Met Roll, spicy tuna roll with cucumber and a spicy Mayo, topped with shredded " crab meat", NOT! Don't tell me you are going to top it with crab and then top it with mounds of that fake stuff, I would rather pay extra for the real McCoy!=$7.95 The white rice that came with the meals was very gummy, yet the fried rice was again very under cooked, it's pretty sad when I need to teach the Chinese how to cook rice! I must admit that the rice in the sushi was cooked perfectly this time. Delivery is prompt and accurate, the staff is very friendly. Did I over order? Of course I did, I'm like a monkey when it comes to Chinese take out! Total $116.80, minus using a 10% off coupon=$111.43 with tax, free delivery and a hefty cash tip, but now I know what to order and what not to order in the future. These were all quart sized servings, except for the sushi, their prices for sashimi and sushi are unreal and I will be ordering this from them more often! Will we be eating Chinese food, morning noon and night for the next one hundred meals, you betcha! Again 3.5 stars.

    Musashi is out-of-this-world good. We're talking S-TIER, folks. It's a tiny spot in Feasterville,…read moretucked into the back of a little strip mall (calling it a mall is a reach), and if you didn't know it was there, you'd never find it. And that's a good thing because competition for tables is already stiff. Get a reservation (you have to call) or be ready to wait in line. The decor is excellent. Not fancy by any means, but FUN. It's like someone raided an Otaku gift shop. There are toys, t-shirts, and a zillion things to delight and catch your eye. Tables are separated by bamboo screens, so each is lovely and private-ish. Service is solid, and the staff have a lot to keep up with. Be patient. But let's talk about the food! I have eaten a lot of sushi in my life and I am not kidding when I say this is some of the best. Everything was incredibly fresh and tasted like it had been out of the ocean for mere moments. We had pork-wasabi shumai and the hamachi jalapeno for appetizers and both were fantastic--the hamachi was probably my favorite thing across the board. We also shared a Sushi deluxe dinner, as well as a Musashi and a Tuna roll (I cannot remember what they called it but it was belly tuna and spicy tuna together and it was to die for). Everything was perfect; I have nothing negative at all to say. 10/10, no notes. So if you find yourself near Bensalem, get yourself there. You will NOT be disappointed.

Absolutely delicious and fresh! My bff got the gyoza and tonkatsu ramen and was thrilled about the flavor. They have a seriously loyal customer base. I was happy to try it tonight! I am very grateful to the hard-working staff that took care of us tonight and prepared such a lovely food and gave such nice service. I would write a song about it on my ukelele about the quirky preciousness of the waitress and decor and music and Japanese knicknacks... but the food was quite lovely. Happy to be in their wonderful care.

Parking was easy to find, the lot is shared with the rest of the small strip mall anchored by a CVS. The young lady who took my order over the phone also greeted me when I entered. She was so nice, helpful and detailed when explaining the menu. The inside of the restaurant appeared clean and welcoming for dining in. They offer chilled and room temperature Chinese flavored waters, Japanese marble sodas, Thai tea, soda and sparkling water. My wife and kids wanted Chicken Teriyaki $10.75 - the lunch portion came with veggies and rice. The portion was small, but they all enjoyed the flavors and said the chicken was fresh. I had ordered the Shoyu Ramen (Chashu pork) Corn, nori, boiled egg, kikurage and scallion at $14.75. The noodles were a big glob and had to be broken up. The broth was spicy, delicious and made up for the noodles. The pork was two thinly sliced medallions that were juicy and flavorful. I made three bowls of soup with the portion, so it was plenty for a second/third meal. I also ordered the Yummy Yummy Roll off the special roll menu $14.75 - Shrimp tempura, cream cheese, avocado, salmon, eel sauce, spicy mayo & tobiko. It didn't hold together well and was ok/good. I would try another roll if I return. Their menu is pretty extensive with Japanese offerings of soups, salad, yakitori, sushi/sashimi, gyoza, hibachi meals, bento box meals, udon, ramen, etc. If I have a return trip I would eat in if having ramen, but the take out experience was good. I'll say it again the young lady working there was patient and an absolute pleasure to deal with! Thanks guys!

First, I didn't realize until I googled afterwards, they failed 14 FOOD INSPECTION VIOLATIONS in 2025, I wish I had found that out before going. They've raised the prices SO MUCH, in some cases 30-45%. It's easy to tell because they just used a marker to write over the old prices on the menu?! You can see where the ramens went up $4-9 dollars per bowl! And if you build your own it's worse, they're charging $1.50 for a tablespoon of green onions on your bowl!??? They've lost their minds. We also ordered the "crispy chicken" for the ramen, and I have to say I did not know a piece of chicken could be pounded this flat. If you held it up you'd be able to see through it. I added a photo, there can't be more than 1/3 of a chicken breast pounded so flat it's unrecognizable as meat. Also we were both absolutely CONVINCED they're watering down the soy sauce. I've had Asian all over the world, I've been traveling and eating in Japan since 2005...I have never seen any soy sauce this watery, thin, and transparent. Absolutely pathetic. So disappointing to see this place hike up the prices and fall off in quality. The nickel and dime-ing, cut corners, and failed inspections are unacceptable.
