    Pad Kee Mao
    Clare C.

    Came here for take out. Very easy to park and go inside to order. I was given a menu when I entered to make an order. There were chairs to sit on while I waited for the food to be made. I ordered the thai basil stir fry with chicken and the pad kee mao to go. The food was made in about 10-15 minutes. Very easy take out and stayed very hot. Portions were a good size and had leftovers afterwards. The flavors were good and tasted fresh. Prices were average for the dishes. Overall very easy and convenient take out.

    Menu as of Sept 2024

    My favorite sushi spot in Carolina Beach. The customer service is great. The food is great. Please try this place if you haven't already. Best items: Crab rangoons (the best I've ever had! Hands down!) Philadelphia roll Spicy tuna roll Appetizer sampler Bagel roll Volcano roll Spicy salmon roll Seahawk roll Dynamite roll

    Dragon Roll, Red Dragon Roll

    Sushi was fresh and came out pretty quickly. The waiter was super friendly and attentive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's pretty quiet during lunch time and they gave me a tablet near an outlet which was super helpful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The ginger tasted a little stale and like whatever old container it was held in which is why I'm giving 4 stars.

    Hibachi bento box

    Very reasonable prices the service is great and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the inside is nice[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] it's usually closed when I think to go but if you're looking for affordable Asian food this is a good option

    Kaylee was absolutely amazing. Very sweet and knowledgeable about the menu. I highly recommend coming here, everything was perfect. The owner was even generous enough to give us tempura ice cream. Sweetest people!

    We had some very good dishes tonight. Service was good. We were a bit disappointed in the spice levels. Things were very mild. We ordered the Fire Dumplings (sorry no pic) they were good but not spicy at all. So don't let the little peppers on the menu stop you from trying something.

    Children's Chicken Nuggets
    Juno M.

    Had Asian for dinner before l left Wilmington. This place sounded appetizing being Asian Fusion. The menu had dishes from China, Thailand and Japan. The staff was very nice and polite and the atmosphere was fairly typical of an Asian Restaurant. The food was fair but not gourmet. Presentation was nice but overall it was very basic. I ordered a Bento Box with Hibachi Chicken. It came with a spring roll, salad crab wonton and a few pieces of California roll. The ginger dressing was too sweet. The citrus overpowered the ginger to the point you couldn't taste the ginger at all. The chicken and rice was pretty simple and the rolls were sub par at best. Even the crab wontons were good yet seemed to be missing something. Overall the dish was fair for the price but about the same as one would get from a corner hibachi to go. I also ordered chicken nuggets and fries for the little one but alas, it went uneaten. I'm sure either it was just a lackluster evening for the chefs or just one of those places one would eat at in a spur of the moment thought. Not great but fair.

    Thai Tea
    Sarah D.

    This was my first time going here! Service was amazing and I loved our waitress. The Thai tea was so good that my friends all tried it and one ordered their own. Our waitress even double checked to see how it was made because we were curious. I loved my brother's General Tso's stir fry and loved how their cooked their noodles. My brother no so much and for reference he loves noodles like what you'd get from traditional Chinese take out. I find Kyoto's way better. I've only had Pad Kee Mao from one other restaurant before. I prefer the other restaurant's, but Kyoto's wasn't bad! I did add white sauce to it. Also it was amazing reheated. I think because the sauce had time to sit and soak up in the noodles. I also love trying tofu at places (especially Asian restaurants) to see how they prepare it because I eat meat but love tofu also. I really liked how they prepared theirs. It had nice flavor!

    Pad Thai and sushi

    Food was spectacular. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Quiet for a Saturday night and so peaceful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server was so helpful, as it was my first. I'm definitely going back.

    Volcano roll

    We have been eating at Kyoto for over 6 years now. We absolutely love their sushi and habatchi! Our favorite sushi is the Volcano roll. Family owned and super friendly

First one in and I walked from the hotel Lela only 1/2 mile away. At the recommendation of my super sweet server I tried the fire cracker shrimp which was a regular specialty on he table placard. I also noticed the cod miso which intrigued me so I order it. What brought in though was the Hamichi Kama which I ordered also. On top of this they brought out a black seaweed/gyoza sample. The. On top of that since it is my birthday week they brought me the green tea mocha. Wow to say I am stuff was an understatement. So since this was a progressive ordering situation which I created the food came out sort of mish mash. I started with black seaweed / gyoza sampler. It was awesome. I would have ordered more had I not already ordered . Then I moved on to the bang bang shrimp. 8 breaded shrimp with their version of bang bang sauce. Plump shrimp with a chili sauce. Not bad. The sauce was just a chili style sauce and so left some to be desired. Then the cod miso came out. Wow. Super hot and had actual chunks of cod and veggies in it. Very good. Then the Hamichi Kama which came out. Amazing. I had this before in Japan and in West Virginia. Amazing. Definitely a recommend. Then they brought out the green tea mochi with green tea ice cream. It was the best I have ever had. Amazing meal definitely needed the walk back to try and walk some of it off. The restaurant is small and reservations are highly recommended. Definitely worth the trouble and I plan to return in the future to try some other items.

    Authenticity at its finest…read more Me and my family went to Genki as we heard it was a great place to get sushi and other Japanese food and it did not disappoint. We were greeted immediately and the servers and chef said welcome in Japanese. We were given warm towels for our hands and it's really a great way to start a meal; it makes you feel revitalized. The inside is nice; they had traditional Japanese music playing in the background so it really set the tone. There are some tables, booths and a counter so you have options on where you can sit. The decor is nice with the lucky cat and other fun decorations. The waitress took our order with a smile on her face and asked us if we wanted recommendations on any of the products or food. She was knowledgeable on the menu and showed real enthusiasm with our questions. I could see the chef preparing the food was clearly skilled and so I did go with what the chef recommended. Before our appetizers, they brought us a complimentary side dish of edamame beans in seaweed salad which was refreshing. Then our appetizers came. We ordered Miso Soup, Garden Salad, California Rolls, Spring Rolls and Pork Gyoza. I had a few of The Pork Gyoza which was cooked perfectly. Crispy at first and then quickly melts in your mouth; was nice and hot too. My family told me the California Rolls and Garden Salad were yummy too. Then the entrees came out and they exceeded our expectations. My family that had the Chicken Fried Rice said it was delicious. One got the Grilled Salmon Dinner and another a Crunchy Roll I believe; they really enjoyed their dishes. My family that ordered the Sushi Platter liked his too (Philadelphia Rolls, Fire Cracker Rolls, Matt's Special and I believe some Salmon Rolls). I had gotten the Chef's recommended, which was two pieces of Yellowtail (Hamachi) and I believe Tuna (Kama-Toro). It was incredibly fresh; among the freshest nigiri I have ever had. I also then ordered their Fire Cracker Roll and that was very good; if you like something with a bit of spice you will love it. We wanted dessert but were too full; just gives us another reason to go back! Genki has something for everyone. Japanese comfort food, Sushi, Sashimi, Nigiri and more. If you haven't already gone, it's time to go; you won't be disappointed! Until next time! じゃあね!

First time we had waited 1 hour for our first tray of sushi to come out and had to ask the bartender to check for our food while the manager was aware and kind of scuffed.second time we went was faster service but still had to wait 40 Minutes for our trays of sushi. Our last time going July 23rd was met by a dirty sticky table then we were asked to move to another and then they sat someone else there without wiping it down. we watched as a table of 9 was able to all be served there 4 course hibachi meal and their server check on them over 5-6 times within the time of us still just having our waters after almost an hour of waiting we did finally get our seaweed salad (cold) no needing to be cooked without silverware or chopsticks to the point where we went to the front and asked why it's taking so long and why we watched a whole table of 9 get finished and almost leaving and also the tables near us that arrived 20 minutes later than us get their sushi trays . They checked to see if it was done we continued to wait another 20 minutes now a total of 1 hour 30 minutes and finally got our first tray of sushi. The night continued to just be an exhausted wait to the point where we just wanted to leave and our appetite just wasn't there anymore . We have only continued going because they are the only ones that do our favorite sushi rolls with such terrible service each time that we know what to expect now and since there's such disregard from management they really don't care . We overheard our waitress saying to the table next to us our sushi is backed up (you guys know the drill here ) right after we had complained to the front desk about such a long wait and drive in total it's just not worth it . If you do choose to go here , expect a 30 min -1 hour wait to be seated , then once you're seated expect another 45-1 hour of wait on food and hoping you still Have an appetite after waiting so long .

The freshness of the food is evident in the taste. The food is also plentiful and shareable. We started with Blue Crab Ragoons which were freshly made. We then shared the seasonal Fire & Ash roll. When it came out I was skeptical of the "orange colored mush" on top but that is exactly what made the roll. The mush was tuna that was slightly smoked. All of the ingredients within the roll were very fresh and the roll was huge. The Angry Tiger was wrapped in white seaweed and included both spicy tuna, salmon, and shrimp tempura. Excellent. The General Tso Chicken had the right level of spice. The ending was the best. Tempura Fried Ice Cream which is a seasonal specialty. Vanilla ice cream covered in a dome of pound cake and fried topped with a drizzle of strawberry and chocolate. Service was terrific. My drink was continually refilled and the server was super nice.

Sadly we forgot to order without mushrooms and our meal was more mushrooms and onions than steak. The zucchini were tiny slivers smothered in onions. Steak was good, not a prime cut but the steak hibachi was only $12.50 though. The veggies could have been grilled longer. Pretty clean, unisex bathroom, you pick your own table. Didn't see anyone wipe tables down after customers left. This place really reminds me of express food at the mall food court . Fast casual. There were a few times where we overheard the employees curse, someone dropped the F word pretty loudly. Not against it just not appropriate in a work setting especially with children present. You can watch the cook through a little window. Good quick spot to stop. Could use improvement.

You order by checking items on a laminated wipe-off page and it is brought to you. Don't order all of your dinner at once, take your time starters, soup, salad first. You may order as much as you want but it's considered exceptionally rude to waste food. Think of it as a buffet but instead of walking steam tables, you select what you want and it's prepared and brought to you. If you don't know what you like, try from 1-2 piece selections first. Pay attention to the * on items. There's a clear warning that raw and undercooked dishes have some risks. If you have weak tummy or immune, don't eat those. Also use caution if you have strong allergies - especially shellfish - as that's a common worry with any sushi/sashimi place. These dishes lean "California Style" but cover most diets. You will have a much better experience if you don't over-order any round. It's not expensive unless you've never eaten in the Grand Strand. Especially buffet style. There is no buffet that allows you to share a plate or take-home free. This IS a buffet just with a different food service model than most are accustomed to. It's also not a place for kids unless you know they eat this menu. They'll complain and you'll pay too much for it. Ambiance can be very nice and borders intimate. It's not Tokyo authentic but we're not in Tokyo. We (4) ate on Memorial Day Weekend '26 evening for just about $40 per seat. We all enjoyed our own preferences of Sushi, Sashimi, and Hibachi. We also all ate our fill over two hours. We'll be back, it's in our rotation. Wheelchair accessible with NO obstacles. Very attentive servers.

The rolls were solid too, however we didn't try their hibachi so I can't say anything about those items. For the price, the quality is honestly hard to beat around here. We've got a few sushi spots nearby but this one is quickly becoming one of my go to favorites in the area. If you're in Conway and craving sushi without breaking the bank, do yourself a favor and hit this place up. We'll definitely be back!
