The sushi rolls are equally amazing, tasting incredibly fresh and expertly crafted with generous portions. The service is attentive, and the atmosphere is welcoming. If you are craving authentic, high-quality Japanese comfort food, do yourself a favor and check this place out. I will definitely be back! That is all. Chief Been around the world twice good taste better when do it twice. :(( SAMA C you been where ? Thought so.

As a lover of Kengo I had extremely high expectations for this place and I'm sad to say I was…read moreslightly disappointed. There's a difference here between Kengo and Kato where you can tell Kengo was a passion project and Kato was fulfilling an area of opportunity. That being said the food was still well cooked and overall was tasty. The ramen was flavorful but we could tell the noodles weren't fresh or housemade which is definitely fine as they tasted like high quality noodles but for the reputation of Kengo we expected a little more. The salmon dish also was a ton of rice with a tad of salmon The staff was overwhelmed even for this small place and it felt like a revolving door with people trying to come in and out. That being said our server was very nice and was trying to manage as best she could If you're looking for decent ramen this is an option but if you're looking for something exceptional this will disappoint

I got their spicy chicken ramen, it was good, I would give a 7/10. Not knock your socks off, but enjoyed it and ate it all. It was missing a variety in taste and texture.

They also do not sell the seamed buns anymore:( The employees were very kind and accommodating though, this is not a service type place though and you order at the front and the pick up your food at the pickup window or they will deliver it to you depending on the size of the order. My friend got the Ugly Pot and it was really really tasty! And my other friend got the Chicken Katsu and said it was also very good and it's her favorite place to get it!

A weeks long ramen craving has led me to Sapporo Ramen and noodle bar. Normally authentic Ramen not…read moreclose to a major city(NYC, Boston, San Fran) would be a major red flag but Michigan in general is quite diverse and to be honest, has not failed me yet. Sapporo is not about to break that trend! Right off the bat, the vibe is chill and the staff is welcoming. I go for the Takoyaki and Hakata modern. The Takoyaki is absolutely delicious. Wonderful balance of texture and salt vs sweet. Easily top 3 I've had. On to the ramen....which I was ready to be super hyper critical on. Hakata modern features Tonkotsu pork broth, chashu, ajitsuke tamago, menma, beansprouts, garlic oil, umami dama, and scallions. Final verdict? The broth is rich and flavorful, and there is plenty of it! The ramen egg is a tab bit overdone and the chasu can be a little more tender but who am I kidding? It's pretty damn good! The best part of all? Sapporo sits at a very reasonable price point while not compromising on high quality. All in all, very much worth a trip while in the area. Sapporo slides right into my go to lineup :-)

Fresh fish, great selection great service! Sat at the Little bar, ordered sashimi appetizer then I ended up with the assorted dish of various tuna's and salmon sashimi, and it was fantastic! Fresh, almost buttery. It was so tender and I just use a little Sriracha and a big Sapporo and I'm a happy camper! Just got in town on business, had an OK lunch nearby we had a craving for sushi so we opted for AKA. This place was booming.!!! parking lot was full, 6 to 8 chefs in the back making Sushi planters but I was really amazed at the freshness of the fish. If you're looking for Sushi here in Jackson, this is got to be the go to your place. Love it! Highly recommend.!!!

I scoured the web for the best sounding wrap I could find and finally set my sights on Grand River Brewery. I ordered a Santa Fe wrap to-go, got there before it was even ready and was home to eat it within 5 minutes. To my dismay they had left the spicy ranch off the wrap. It was dry and unpleasant and that was an unfortunate tell of what was to come. It was accompanied by an odd tasting pickle, which particularly hurt my heart because I am a woman who loves a good pickle. This next part was especially jarring because the ambiance of the restaurant really seemed like they would have good fries, I'm sure they would be good fresh, but the ones I found inside my to-go box were not that. Sad, hard, dry fries that tasted and felt like they had been sitting out for hours. Truly disappointing. In summary, twas certainly a mistake to treat myself to this TWENTY ONE dollar meal that didn't even include a drink...21 dollars for a horrible wrap, horrible fries and a weird pickle. For that price I was really expecting the best wrap I've ever had, I could not have been more let down. My Venmo is grace-shoemaker- if you're feeling sympathetic to my experience. Thanks for tuning into my blog.

Service is nice, fast, and the look & feel of the restaurant is appealing. Would only return for bubble tea though.

The only negative is the egg, which isn't molten like other ramen spots. It could've been cooked more and at least cut in half to let it absorb the broth. I got the miso ramen with the fire in the bowl. Get this - the best part wasn't the ramen, it's the bao buns. I got the soft shell crab one which was actually perfect. Seaweed salad hit the spot too. Live music and pool tables. Arcades as well. Entrance is in the back. Service was busy towards the end of the night, but the sever was helpful in explaining the menu.
