Not just for ambiance but cleanliness as well. The sushi counter glass (plastic?) was dingy. The tint film on the front windows was peeling off in the corner. The tables and booths tired and worn. Two of the 3 types of sushi we ordered were OK at best. The spicy tuna sushi was not ok. The teriyaki chicken was a filet of chicken breast (overcooked and dry) sliced with a light drizzle of teriyaki sauce atop. The stir fried vegetables served with it were in my opinion reheated or completely overcooked. The service was fine. Only one waitress for the indoor seating.

We had lunch at Okini Asian Cuisine on a Monday. We were there when they opened. We were the only…read morecustomers until someone came in for a pick-up order just as we were leaving. The ambiance is casual chic. I loved the lighting, both those hanging from the ceiling and the changing colors on the back wall. Our server was very attentive and sweet. We managed to order a lot of food and most of it was excellent. We were treated to a trio of Spanish peanuts, slightly spicy cucumber and pickled onions that were quite tasty. Taking a taste of each together was a great bite. It was a fun start to the meal. We stared with two appetizers: Stuffed Jalapeños and Chili Dumplings. The stuffed jalapeños were fantastic! I expected them to be spicy hot, but they were not. The stuffing was delicious and each bite was delectable. We highly recommend them. The chili dumplings were also very good, though we've had better. These were spicy, but not overly so. They were good and I'd order them again. Mark ordered one of the lunch specials that offered three rolls. They were good. He liked some better than others. I ordered Sashimi Deluxe, which came with a salad and miso soup. The soup was nice. I liked the dressing on the salad and used it more as a palate cleanser between bites of sashimi rather than relying on the ginger. The sashimi was also hit and miss. The pieces were large, with each easily being twice the size you might find at other establishments. None of them, however, melted in my mouth nor did they elicit yummy sounds. We had dessert. I had Tiramisu cake and Mark had Mango Mousse. His mousse was so good! The tiramisu cake was good, but not outstanding. Both desserts came with strawberries, that were fresh and sweet, and a little scoop of ice cream. I mentioned it was my birthday (because it was) and they gave us my tiramisu case at no charge. That was so sweet! When our server came with the check, she also gave us a token each for the claw machine. What fun! We didn't win a prize, but we won some fun on our way out. We both decided we'd come back without hesitation. We are looking forward to trying ramen next time.

Our server was very kind and helpful - she walked us through the process. There's sushi available on the revolver, but we can also order additional menu items from a screen at the table. It was great for someone like me who doesn't typically stray from my regular sushi order - it made me try different types of roles and only have a few pieces if they weren't my favorite. All the revolving plates are $3.45, so low risk if it's not your favorite. But all the rolls we tried were good! And the dessert we ordered at the end was good too. Great time and we will be back!

Super casual and quaint place in a strip shopping plaza. I typically skip such places but I love…read morethis mom and pop Thai place. Absolutely scrumptious Thai iced tea preferred over other local places. And the crab rangoons are light and crispy (think wonton wrapper --not egg roll). I've been here before, but tried a new dish today. I got the ginger stir-fry with only onion, snow peas, and ginger in it. It's a very thin and light sauce and the chicken is tender (NOT fried or battered). The only thing I'd change next time is swapping the steamed white rice for fried. I will definitely go back for this dish! My son opted for the basil fried rice w/beef. He's braver than I, and chose 2.5 on the spicy scale (1-3 are the choices!). He loved it and the crab rangoons, and he's not usually a fan of rangoons. It's family friendly and good for any small groups. Very friendly staff, as well. And save room for the mango sticky (black) rice dessert. ;)

And the service is attentive and friendly without being overwhelming. We'll be back.

I ordered the Strawberry Tea with popping Boba, it was very good and refreshing. A little too sweet, but good none the less. If there was anything I would change would be the speed in which they made the drink. There was no one else at the restaurant, so I (along with one other person) was the only one ordering, and they moved as tad too slow...but, they made up for by producing a good beverage. Great place to check out if in the mood for Boba, or a light bite! Prices are manageable. Located in the Medplace Food Court, a fun place to grab lunch or to watch a game with friends, this place is worth checking out! Enjoy!

It is clearly small…read moreoperation with the chef also working as the owner, waiter, etc. The biggest quirk that may be off-putting to some people is how the owner / chef is very involved in your experience. If you are not expecting it, it can be a shock for sure. He would frequently check in on us and make small talk, give us recommendations on the menu, how to order, even so far as to grab our stone bowls after they were served to stir them. For me, it was overbearing and I was not a fan of someone touching utensils after we were served without asking but I ended up still giving 5 stars because he meant well. Right after he continued bringing dumplings and serving them to us just to be nice! No additional charge, and he would've continued making them unless we refused after bringing 2 whole orders. When he learned it was our friends birthday he brought out moonpies and a bag of some korean snack just for her, even though they dont have dessert on the menu. Even as you walk in, you'll notice from the decore that is very much a small business. You have a button to press to notify the owner you're there, get drinks, and a QR code to order. That being said the service is very timely, high quality fresh food comes out super hot, and he was very nice. Be aware of the social experience because that is a big part of the restaurant. Can be a positive or negative depending on your what you like.
