    Miso Soup
    Gavin D.

    I went here with my dad, we both enjoyed it. Heres the full story: We came here since another sushi place nearby had a waitlist. This place looked very promising due to reviews! The outside was a bit intimidating upon arrival, but the inside was very clean and comfortable. We ordered the lunch special, (3 basic Sushi rolls with a side of soup or salad, we chose soup,) which was a lot cheaper than we expected. Soup came out first, it was excellent. The broth had lots of flavor and the meat was soft. When the sushi came out, we were pleasantly surprised by the quantities. Everything was really good and we even got a side of Yellowtail sashimi. The waiter was very polite but a little quiet. The only reason this place is a 4 star for me is because it's above average for a pretty average sushi place. No complaints, just a normal, quaint restaurant. I totally suggest going here

    Best tasting menu in the city! Definitely will be back And Bella our waitress was amazing and very polite

    Interesting tip jar
    Nicole J.

    I've been coming to this area for a few years and have driven past this place and thought it would be worth trying. We arrived on a Friday evening in the parking lot was full, so I was concerned if we would get a seat. We ended up having to park in the lot of the restaurant next-door. Luckily, the wait it was only about 15 minutes. The place was packed so apparently it's a popular spot in the area The waitress was very attentive and friendly, but she also apologized a lot which we couldn't figure out why. The food was just OK. I got the salmon teriyaki with fried rice and vegetables. I wish I would've gotten white rice. The fried rice had no flavor and very little vegetables. The broccoli was over done, and the carrots were large round discs and oddly sweet. If you've had great Japanese anywhere else, you will be very disappointed with this. If you're a custom to kind of basic food, this will work for you. I definitely won't be back when I'm in the area again.

    Teriyaki Chicken - Entrée

    Got a teriyaki chicken, but it came with no teriyaki, just plain chicken and rice. The chicken is good quality and so is the rice. But be sure to ask for extra teriyaki sauce.

    Sushi to go. So good

    There is something special about this sushi. The rice is so good. The fish is so fresh. There is quality in every bite. I have been very hungry on my way home from work, on numerous occasions, so I call ahead for carry-out. Unfortunately for you, that is the photograph you are seeing. The picture doesn't do it justice. It is consistently the best sushi. Visit their website and download their menu: $3 off Dragon Rolls on Tuesdays $3 off Selected Fusion Rolls on Wednesdays A selection of 50% of Sushi on Sundays Sushi Lunch Specials Tues-Sat 12p to 2pm. Be adventurous.

    Deluxe Sashimi

    The food was DELICIOUS and the service was Absolutely on point... Their Deluxe Sashimi and Teriyaki Noodles with Sirloin were off the chain good ... If you haven't been here yet, your missing out!

    Bottom left : sexy dragon  Top : cherry blossom  On my husbands plate : volcano roll & omg roll

    We just moved to NC from California and I was nervous I wasn't going to find good sushi here but we tried it here for the first time and we were both very impressed on how good it was! My favorite was the cherry blossom & omg roll but definitely the omg roll tops it! We also tried the salmon skin roll, the taste wasn't bad but the fish smell was too strong for me. Don't recommend if that grosses you out. Thank you to Kelly for her kind/friendly service and recommending us all these delicious rolls! We will definitely be going back. 4.5/5 stars

    The service was exceptionally great and the food was just as spectacular. A great sushi spot in Hickory.

    Loved the sushi I tried. Hated the modern ordering system of a bar code menu and ordering. Can't go inside most of their open hours.

    Came here on a weekday with a gang of coworkers. It was nice to see the place pretty packed for a…read moreweekday, most tables were full. No draft beers from what I saw, only bottled beer which is fine. We all got Sapporo which was nice, 22oz tall boys. For food we all got hibachi which was delicious - I was surprised how flavorful and delicious it was. I personally got the steak and chicken and loved it. Like all hibachi you get soup, salad, shrimp, and the hibachi meal you ordered with fried rice. We all left full and happy. The staff was super friendly and we were sat quickly, our orders were taken quickly and the food and drinks came out quick. Only thing that could have been improved was the hibachi tricks! Spinning knives and the egg in the hat are a classic - but no onion volcano !? no sake water gun!? Gotta step up the production value here lol, overall a great spot though.

    KOBE - Japanese House of Steak and Seafood is as the name suggests... a Japanese steakhouse that…read moreserves grilled meats and vegetables along with other items such as sushi, but I believe most people go for the hibachi experience. The inside looks a bit outdated, but it was not that big of a deal to me as everything was running properly. I thought that the chefs were very cool to watch. I got the Hibachi Chicken. It was a really filling meal! This place does not skimp out on portions. I enjoyed how tender the zucchini and chicken were cooked and the shrimp sauce made it taste a lot better (who does not love shrimp sauce?!). I thought that everything was seasoned well, but a bit too well? My meal was a bit salty for my liking, but that is just a personal preference. As my first hibachi experience, I would probably give this place a 3.5/5 stars if I could. It is not overly fancy and works for a place like Hickory.
