Comic Style Sushi Spot That's Actually Worth It…read more Loved this place from the moment I walked in. The whole spot is themed with Asian comic style details and characters, which makes it feel different and honestly really cool. Even the menu follows the same vibe. The food was really really good. We tried a mix of things like poke bowls, teriyaki, pad thai, and bao buns, and everything hit. Good flavor, tasted fresh, and just overall solid. Service is quick and simple. Nothing over the top, but it works and everything comes out fast. Prices are reasonable for the area, which makes it even better. I would 100% come back. It's one of those places you end up loving and want to keep going back to. Definitely worth it if you like sushi or Asian fusion.

Being from an area where there are numerous good restaurants and world cuisines makes finding good…read morefood difficult when I'm away from home. I haven't found any stellar restaurants in the Ft. Lauderdale area that I really like. I saw the 4.5 stars on Yelp for this restaurant and thought for sure, the quality and taste would be as good as the sushi restaurants back in CA, especially since this restaurant is known for omakase. We arrived at opening. The wait for food to be served was long although there was only one table seated before us. The ambience was simple and clean. Wait staff was friendly. The food however, tasted like Americanized sushi at best. Even the rice was dry and fell short of sushi rice from an average sushi restaurant that can be found at every corner of my neighborhood. The shrimp ramen was so salty, we had to add water to it. Miso soup was less than memorable but the one thing this restaurant did well, was the fried rice. It was flavorful and gets my seal of approval. Prices are a little steep for the quality and taste. This restaurant is located in a plaza so a parking lot is available.

Juan was my server and he totally hooked me up. What a professional!!…read moreSo nice and accommodating explained the menu fully. You can't beat the location or the scenery from this place! I ordered the spicy edamame as an appetizer. I ordered the Duck Bao Bun, which is absolutely fantastic as well. For dinner I ordered a two-piece Maguro sushi. The fish literally melted in my mouth. I had the Spicy Hotake Maki as well, it was absolutely fantastic. I am bummed I'm only here for tonight, but I can tell you that the food here is absolutely epic and if you've never been here, you absolutely need to come. Ask for Juan to take care of you and you will not be disappointed!!

We were staying at the Conrad and just had to come here and try it. Man so glad I did…read more It's beautifully decorated place and love how the sushi chefs say hello in Korean. That's a first. I will say though if you want a nice cold room go to the back. The open the doors in the middle and it is very humid by the bar and seating there. The food really delivered. The crispy tuna, mandu, chop chae with big short rib, and steak were all so delicious and flavorful. I would come back here in a heartbeat. The sushi ice cream really hit the home run to end our meal. The only knock I will say though was the drinks and the service. He was hit or miss, almost impossible to find. He rarely checked up on us. The cocktail menu was just okay too.

I was not disappointed with the flavor and strange combination of fried gyoza. I would absolutely go back to try the tonkatsu version when im back in town and give the Ribeye topping a try instead of yoga. They also did proper tea by the pot. So 1 pot shared with the table which is always nice with the food before and after eating. No complaints and the waiter was patient and helpful with our daughter as well.

I was so excited to finally make a visit! Like others have said, Theres a garage or you can park on the street. It was $3.75ish/hr on the street. I'm not sure how much the garage was. We came right at opening and there was already people there! We took a Quick Look at the menu outside. It's at the bottom floor of the garage and the plaza looks like it's in a subway station. It reminded me of Japan! They chose a great spot. It was well thought out. The art, walls, plates were so aesthetic. Services was great as well! I had to start with the classic Japanese food. Although I did want to try everything. Started off with the JFC. It was perfect! Perfectly fried and had just enough sauce. The marinade was perfect. The crisp-perfect. I love that they used chicken thigh. It was a perfect start. It was nice because they waited for us to finish our appetizer before bringing out our entrees and that's never done at a lot of restaurants anymore. I'll start off with the disappointment. I ordered the tonkatsu for myself. I was shocked at how burnt it was. And how disappointed I was that they allowed it to be served to me. It was very dry on the inside. And the whole dish wasnt as piping hot as the karaage was. Kinda like it was sitting on the pass waiting for the ramen to be done maybe? I wouldn't have mind if it was lukewarm if it wasn't burnt. That really bothered me. Not something I expected so early on in the day. But I ate it. It was hard to chew because it was dry. This was my only complaint. I wouldn't suggest ordering this dish. I liked the details. How the cabbage and carrots were cut. I liked the Japanese rice too. I could tell it was Japanese rice. It reminded me of going to mt Fuji when we went to a restaurant there that had the mt Fuji rice. It was perfectly cooked. Not soggy or hard. My partner had the house ramen-ichimora. It. Was. The. Best. Ramen. I've. Had. In awhile. lol. It used to be Momosan but went down hill about 2 years ago. They ended up shutting down this year. Anyway, back to the ramen. It wasn't as thick as Momosan (I like thick broth). But I liked this one too! They are both different broths. The meats were very very tender. Noodles weren't Al dente. But overall loved it. You won't find another broth like that in florida. Another thing I'd like to mention was the plates with good portions. Which I haven't seen done in a loooong time. We were stuffed! Next time I'd like to try their sushi and hopefully bentos for lunch because I miss going to Japanese restaurants that have the bento boxes.

A fantastic place to get sushi. Great service and yummy food…read more After having really poor sushi experience the day prior, this place restore my confidence in Florida to deliver good sushi.

Came the other day with some friends. As they recommended this place heavily…read more Service was phenomenal as the waiter recognized my friends along with what they had ordered last time and everything! The restaurant feels like it needs some more love. Not sure if it feels outdated but I can't say it had the most absolute welcoming vibes. The staff were very welcoming. This is not a bad reflection of those working. The food, I can't lie I was a bit disappointed. The main thing that was the lackluster for me was flavor. It could be what I had ordered versus what they ordered. But wanted to keep it simple and try a couple things. Now I'm not gonna say it was bad because it wasn't. However, it was knock your socks off by any means. Will I return to try something else. Yes absolutely they had ordered some stuff that looked very good. Hoping I just went on a bad day

Located on the Riverwalk on the banks of the New River in Fort Lauderdale, Ukiah Japanese…read moreSmokehouse recently celebrated its one year anniversary in June 2026. Its happy hour was the most inviting from all the restaurants within walking distance from where i was staying, so I stopped in alone early evening on a Friday night. It was a great experience. It's a really large indoor dining area, so even though it was fairly busy inside, was able to be seated immediately. They do have outdoor dining as well, but not sure how usable it is during this time when the mosquitos are so bad. All the folks I interacted with were elegantly friendly, with my server being attentive (keeping my tap water constantly full), even though I was only a party of one and chose not to drink. I was here only to sample (since I still needed to bring back food for the rest of my party), so chose two things off of the small Happy Hour menu: 6 HH Oysters (3 Eastern and 3 Pacific for $18) and Karaage Chicken ($14). The food came out fast, and both were excellent (though I wish the chicken had some more interesting sauces than just the bbq sauce and mayo). I was in/out in less than 20 minutes. One interesting thing was that the on-site manager interacted with me twice: once to make sure I was being helped while waiting to be taken to my table, and once I was leaving to make sure everything turned out well. For me, these sort of interactions really does make the difference between a good restaurant experience and a great one. The payment processor is Toast and the transaction happened tableside.

These water front areas have been quick to turnover on Las Olas, but hopefully Ukiah can stay! They are doing an all day HH on Mondays but the happy hour menu had very limited bites. There were only four items for the happy hour food, which as a pescatarian meant I could only get the edamame and shishito peppers (both small portions but delicious). The salmon crispy rice was absolutely to die for- I would recommend it 100 times over! For my meal I had the red snapper skewers which were great, but the portion was a bit small for the price (especially considering it does not come with any sides). Our server was a bit strange. Wish the portions were larger but would absolutely return!

It was creamy, slightly spicy, and packed with flavor. The duck with fried rice was another standout. We also tried a couple of sushi rolls and everything tasted really fresh and fun!
