But the food was exceptional! We sampled a handful of things at our table, but of everything, I really enjoyed the soft shell crab and the spicy tuna roll.

One of my favorite meals here would have to be one of the many chef made sushi rolls, which have their own fun names and unique flavors! For those who have allergies or who don't like fish, don't worry!! They also have noodles, rice, and other dishes that do not include seafood. The staff are very careful about making sure your food is safe when telling them about your allergy or any other concerns. There is a large amount of seating and the wait time on busy days is not long. They also do take out which hives the same experience as sitting in! I highly recommend you try this spot out if you're in the area!

We ate here twice within a week during Laconia Bike Week. The first experience was good, where…read moreservice was a bit slow but very friendly. Note that ALL tables here are very small. The layout is somewhat strange, as there are only very small tables for two, seats at the bar, or seats at only 2 hibachi tables. There's also a choice of sitting outside in a counter-like experience on the porch (although there is a good view of the lake). So unless you're having hibachi, forget about a larger group. The food was good but timing was bad. We shared a generous portion of Shumai as an appetizer, as well as a couple of sushi rolls. All came out together, which made it so the warm rolls were cold by the time we got to them after eating our appetizer. I think they were called Ocean Breeze and Green Dragon. We came back a few nights later, and this would be our last visit. While the food was good, service was horrendous. Two of us were there for TWO hours!!! TWO hours to get an appetizer, 2 sushi rolls, and dessert. We were already tired from working a long day, and not in the mood for a two-hour meal. They said they were very busy because they have only one fryer that was backed up, which was needed for the Volcano roll that we ordered. Yes, that roll was really delicious, but not worth the amount of time it took. We made the mistake of ordering the Fried Ice Cream for dessert (it looked interesting at another table), not realizing there was still a large back up for the fryer. It took almost half an hour to get that! For this very reason, we would never ever ever go back. An irritating side note was the amount of pressure that was put on us to order a drink from the bar. Neither one of us drink alcohol or soda, and we both only wanted water with our meal. The server continually came over to push drinks on us. Even after saying we only wanted water, we were asked yet again from someone else. Once or twice, OK. 4 or 5 times is annoying. As I said, the food is good, but we will not go back again.

My experience with the Hibachi grill at Enso left me feeling quite conflicted. We made a…read morereservation for a party of four, which required an $80 deposit upfront ($20 per person). When our final bill arrived, it totaled $186 for just two of us, and while we were issued an $80 gift certificate to offset the deposit, the value just didn't seem to match the quality of the meal. Ultimately, the food was just okay. For the price point, I expected a more elevated experience; instead, the meal felt heavily padded with inexpensive staples like rice, noodles, and vegetables. Given the high cost and the somewhat confusing deposit structure, I left feeling like it wasn't a great value. While the venue itself has a nice atmosphere, I'm not sure the hibachi experience justifies the premium price tag. Key points to keep in mind regarding my visit: * **Pricing Structure:** The requirement to pay a $20 per-person deposit in advance feels restrictive, especially when the final bill is already quite high. * **Value:** The portion composition relies heavily on fillers like rice and noodles rather than premium ingredients, making the overall cost feel disproportionate to the quality. * **Overall Impression:** While the experience was functional, it didn't meet the expectations set by the pricing.

We had driven several hours without eating and came at an odd time, 3 pm, so it was a late lunch/early dinner. Our experience could not have been better. Nice atmosphere, clean.

When we sat to order and asked about vegetarian/pescatarian choices, the server immediatly recommended Pad Thai with grilled red snapper on top. That was it! Perfect! We ordered two! We told them we were attending a play and had to be in and out quickly, and they totally accommodated us. The food was fresh and delicious, and we gobbled it down. Highly recommended!

We prefer to take away and eat, but the place is often full of happy parties of all sizes and relations. I think it can be chilly, but it's in an old building, so it's expected.

When we ordered, we weren't asked what spice level we wanted so we took the default spice heat which was none.

The tom yum soup was loaded with veggies and chicken and was perfect to help clear out my sinuses on a day when my allergies were acting up after doing yard work.

We have been away from New England too long, so we were craving shrimp and lobster sauce. Lunch included soup- I had wonton, my husband had very tangy sweet and sour soup.

Kung pao chicken, beef and broccoli, a few others. They are all solid and generous. That is why this place keeps ending up in our rotation when we are in Tilton around lunchtime. That said, the ginger stir fried chicken with green beans stands above the rest. It is easily my favorite thing on the menu and the one I come back to most often. They do not treat ginger like a background note here. You get real, chunky pieces mixed throughout the dish, giving it a sharp warmth that cuts through the sauce. The chicken stays tender, the green beans still have some snap, and the whole thing avoids that overly sweet. The hot and sour soup is also worth ordering. It has a nice tang and a little heat. I still have not tried the beef teriyaki, but it keeps catching my eye when plates pass by, glossy and piled high. Service is great, friendly and efficient. For the price and consistency, it is hard to complain.
