The sushi was fresh and so tasty. This place has a cute little vibe, and it's definitely worth the stop!

Creative and big rolls but very expensive. I'll start with the good: Their rolls are some of the most creative rolls I've found! My mom and I split a 'Harry Potter' roll that had shrimp tempura, avocado and seared albacore tuna on top, 'Alaska Roll' which was a California Roll w/ salmon on top, and 'Hot Night' that had tuna and carrots inside the roll and spicy tuna on top (note: spicy is the key word). I love the location in downtown Medford and has cute outdoor seating for warm nights. Perfect for a date night or business lunch. However, I do feel this restaurant is charging too much. 3 rolls + 3 Moscow Mules was $90! For reference, my husband and I usually get 5 rolls + appetizer + 2 beers for around $60 in California. In addition, they are charging an extra $4 per roll for real crab. Obviously, I am their business manager so I don't know their operation costs but this does seem expensive. Overall, I will go back but I will be more cautious about what I am ordering ie, 1 drink + 1 roll for Happy Hour or not order cocktails and get tea instead. read more

The Sushi is great! In my opinion the best in town. When have had so many special family occasions at Misoya and the staff is always welcoming and hospitable. My favorite roll is the King Kong Roll, its just spicy and fabulous! read more

A friend and I were hungry and decided to walk over to Misoya and eat in after we repeatedly tried to call to place an order for take out but only got a busy line.When we arrived we could see the place was packed. Some one who was cleaning up tables very frantically told us he would be with us in a minute. After about 7 minutes we did get seated at a sticky booth table, then 20 minutes more till some one noticed we were there waiting. The 2 waiters I saw were literally running back and forth across the room trying to get to the other tables. Seemed to be 5-6 people in the kitchen and counter area....not sure what they were doing. I was a bit annoyed and hungry. I kept thinking this will be the last time I come here. So we finally got to place our order and again suprised. the food came pretty quickly and there was ALOT of it. Tempura shrimp and veggies, bbq pork,fire cracker jalapenos(YUMMM),pot stickers and a beef dish. When we got the check, the price seemed really fair for what we got.The food was really VERY delicious! I will be back, but I think I will try a time when it is not so busy. read more

Great food reasonably priced. My family raved about them and they came from Seattle been to a lot of Japanese restaurants. Great servers too. read more

The food and quality is delicious there is no denying that, but I feel that you don't get enough food for what you pay for depending on the item. I'd love to eat here again when it's not financially impacting. read more

Use to like this place.. never going back.. poor customer service and quality of rolls has declined. Dirty sticky tables. Watch your charges.. they double charged us when I asked for separate tickets. Waitress wouldn't give separate tickets. Kinda shady . read more

The food was overall fine, however it's distinctly prepared with an small town America taste catering to the demographics. Unfortunately service was terrible - Both waitresses were unaware, rude, & in a bad mood. They were ARGUING IN FRONT OF ALL CUSTOMERS & it continued through my meal. (My table was next to the waitress station.) They would help customers in between their argument. I was very uncomfortable & ended my meal early. While I had a mask on other than eating, mask policy was ignored by customers & staff did not enforce it. read more

Wow! Great ambiance, absolutely delicious food, and the best service!! Can't think of anywhere I'd rather have spent my birthday!! This place is 5 star on all levels! ...just read a couple of other reviews on poor service --seems impossible--our service was top notch! read more

In spite of the glowing reviews of this place, I can't say we enjoyed our visit here. And considering how beloved this place is by Yelpers, it does make me wonder if I caught Misoya at a bad time. Problems? From the outset, we didn't at all feel the friendly welcome several others have noted. The feeling we sensed was almost as though we were bothering them -- although it was far from busy on an early Saturday afternoon and they were well-staffed. Nonetheless, we were seated -- at a table in line with the afternoon sun. Given the host's reluctance to engage us to that point, we chose to get up and switch tables to the one next to it. Faux pas? I suppose. We would've gladly waited for her, but again, she had failed to acknowledge us in the 10 minutes since she sat us. You can ignore idiosyncrasies in the waitstaff, of course. Sometimes someone's just a little off on their game, so you don't take it to heart. Assuming the food was going to be stellar, you'd be happy with that. As you can probably guess, it wasn't. Bulgogi? I mean it was fine. Not terrible. But for $15? I want something exponentially better than "not terrible." The wife had chicken yakisoba. Same fate befell her dish. Fine, not terrible. And again, at $11, disappointing. Our total bill -- including drinks and appetizer -- with tip hit the $40 range. That's just nuts. Pine nuts. Brazil nuts. Admittedly, I've been spoiled -- most of my life I've lived in LA and SF, where delicious Korean/Japanese/Chinese/Thai food isn't nearly as expensive and hard to find as it is here. But $40+ for mediocre Asian cuisine? That's highway robbery. And it cements my perception that good, inexpensive Asian cuisine is pretty much impossible to find in the greater northwest -- so you can forget about finding it in Medford. read more

Waitress get zero star and no tip, all she did is take the order and deliver the food then she was gone, bus boy did the billing. Food was fair maybe two stars but will not return. read more

I would advise you not to ever dine at this restaurant. My friend and I went last night and though we ordered at the same time, they only put my friends order in, so when her's arrived, mine hadn't even started being prepared. So we ate separately. (there were no other customers in the restaurant, inexcusable) When my food finally did arrive, the chicken was undercooked and completely inedible, (I felt a stomach ache from the gross chewy texture after two bites). In addition, the soy sauce container on the table was empty, the tea was cold, the owner and the sushi chef were having a very loud, distracting, unprofessional argument during the duration of our meal (which unfortunately lasted much to long due to the fact that our food arrived at completely different times.) I didn't touch mine, and when i mentioned that my chicken was undercooked, an apology was brought with the check. No comp, no offer to made amends, That was it. Absolutely terrible experience all around. Being from portland, the only thing I had to based my decision to go there on were all these five star yelp ratings. Had to warn you guys, do not eat here. read more

The fish is fresh and colorful but maybe I'm just used to California sushi. The service was good and they were there every time we needed something. When I did not like about the sushi was that anything spicy they used chili oil which is not my preference. I also did not like the texture of rice. It was a little too hard for me. I got a salmon hand roll, miso soup, sashimi salad, and a spicy scallop roll. I also shared a spicy tuna roll and had a bite of a delicious Harry Potter roll. read more

Been here twice and I can say i will not be back so i will go ahead with a review. Laying out what i like, this place has a great atmosphere outside. There is a variety of asian dishes leaning toward japanese and korean. It's different than any other place in town and I applaud their effort. Its potential to be a good spot, however falls short. First on price. The place put plainly is overpriced for what it is. The restaurant tries to cater to the higher end of the asian market but offers little that stands out. There's not a lot to the particular dishes. Everything i have tried or ordered was less than great and can be had for much less elsewhere in town, often with better flavor. Even the sushi was average. But our second visit, last night was an awful experience. We ended up scrambling to get out of there. Flies swarming, horrible service, and mediocre overpriced food were to blame. I'm trying not to be mean. It takes a very high level of understanding to be a server. There were so many things that she struggled with...sigh...nuff said. read more

Definitely one of the best places in town! Just stopped in for salmon and tuna nigiri and the presentation and taste was INCREDIBLE! High quality food 100% worth it! Great atmosphere and always great review ! read more

Misoya Bistro - Asian Fusion Near Me - Medford, Oregon

Food was decent- had some sushi and some ramen- nothing out of this world but certainly not bad. Service? Abysmal. Waitress took over 10 min to come say hi, apologized for it, didn't pick up on my comment of "we'll accept free dessert" and continued to be horrible. Painfully slow, did not pick up dirty plates, took another 15 min to come pick up my credit card after finally getting a bill- which included no adjustments for the poor service. Would not come back. read more

More of a Korean than Sushi place. My husband who did a year in Korea said the Food he ordered tasted just like Korea. I got the imperial roll, which was good until I get getting this weird crunch. Turns out there was a carrot in the roll. Odd thing to put in a roll. Miso soup was alright,served lukewarm so eat it quick. read more

I had originally wrote a pretty good review, but I will NO LONGER RECOMMEND this restaurant. We ate here tonight and were extremely disappointed. They messed up our simple order and never brought us half our food, which included an appetizer and two people's dinner. The two plates they did bring us were incomplete, we had to chase down our sides of rice! We ended up leaving having been there an hour and still had not received the rest of our food. The waitress wasn't very friendly and didn't seem to care that she'd ruined our dinner. We will definitely never return here. There was a new waiter/bus boy and did a good job for us. P.S. I've was a waitress for years before getting into the medical field, I know it can be tough. But, these gals simply lack the work ethic that it takes to do the job. read more

My wife and I go here at least 2 times a month. The food is always good, however the service isn't the best. It feels they have a high turnover rate because the girls that work there are always changing. If they continuously had better service and more servers on staff we would visit more often. read more

Delicious! Best teriyaki chicken every. Add it to a salad, or teriyaki and vegetables with rice, my favorite! Service is great too! I never sit too long without a staff member greeting me! Never had a bad meal here. read more

I just relocated back to Medford after a 10 year break, and I am not going to lie, I had no idea what to expect as far as restaurants down here. However, I just left a city that had ZERO places to get bento (chicken and rice, guys, not that hard!) so it was a pleasant surprise to find a plethora of bento available to me here. I have been to Misoya no less than five times now. I am working in the immediate vicinity, so it makes it a top contender for lunchtime. The ONLY thing I have ever ordered is their chicken bento box, and for everything you get, the price sits just fine with me. For $9.95 (no tax, hooray!) you get a healthy portion of chicken, rice, California roll, delicious salad and gyoza. Every time I have ordered this, the food has been SPOT ON delicious. The service varies, from very attentive to minimally attentive, but I haven't experienced any flat out bad customer service. Lucky for me I like this place, because it would be a damn shame if I was working right next door to a place that sucked. They've won my business. read more

I did not enjoy this trip to Misoya. The customer service was blunt and abrupt and came off as rude, and I felt like I was in a fast food sit down situation where they wanted us in and out as soon as possible. The restaurant wasn't even busy I might add. After finishing our sushi rolls, we had to get up and ask for our spring rolls (which were sitting at their drop off location for a while and arrived cold and burnt) we've never felt so obligated to write a review because my mother and I like to think positively about about things and give people the Benefit of the doubt, but we felt like this must be said. And looking at other people's reviews, Many others agree. It could have been an off day for them, but we have never experienced such rushed and impolite customer service before. Won't be coming back anytime soon. read more

With the demise of Lee's Korean in Ashland, I had to give Misoya another look since I love Korean food. Well, last night we gave them the chance to wow us. I have to say that we will now be dining there much more often. My wife's Bi bim Bap still came out like 10 minutes before my Spicy Pork, and my wife's Miso soup did not have any bonito. She is a good critic on Miso since she has been preparing it for many years. However, my Korean Spicy Pork was quite tasty and the Bi Bim Bap was pretty good too. Since they are now the only game in town for Korean food--and a lot closer to us than Lee's for travel time-- We are now fans. read more

I got a takeaway vegetarian dish, got home and it REEKED of fish. It was a battered tofu and my guess is they used old oil to fry it in. Or maybe it was was something else- oversight, unclean prep surfaces, spillage, whatever. End result is I spent money on food that was, for me, inedible. I regularly eat at sushi restaurants and this is my first experience with a tainted veg dish. I wouldn't suggest going here if you have any eating restrictions and certainly not if you have a food allergy. The gentleman who took my order was friendly enough. Food came out timely. While waiting, I listened to a table wonder about a dish they'd ordered that never arrived. When one server asked another about it, a brief blame game ensued but it was at least out of ear shot of the patrons. What I saw of the restaurant had good ambiance. There are a few outdoor seats and it's in a nice location. If I had noticed the spoiled food before I left and had it replaced, I might be in the 3-star range but if a restaurant is going to provide takeaway, they need to prep it with integrity to avoid just this. read more

So... I have to downgrade the stars for my updated review. Man, I don't know what's wrong with them, but they cannot hire a good server. I've been eating there for a long time and have seen the servers come and go. The service seems to get worse every visit. So, I met my friend on Valentine's evening (sure, it was busy)... but, the server was obnoxious. He kept harassing us for our order when we clearly weren't ready to order. I felt like he was trying to pull a wham, bam, thank you, ma'am. After we ordered, my meal came first. We waited and waited. About 10 minutes later, our APPETIZER came out. My soup was already lukewarm. More time passed. About 20 minutes later, the server came by and said, "you guys cool?" Um, no, we're not cool. Where is my friend's entree?! He looked dumbfounded and said, "Oh. What did you order?" Huh. By the time she got her food, mine was cold. Because who wants to eat hot soup anyway? So then, as if that weren't bad enough, during the middle of the meal, he REACHES over our table to the table beside us. WHAT? He put his arm through our table to another table. Are you seriously that lazy that you can't take four steps to the side to access them? We were appalled. We couldn't believe it. Anyway, we stayed to chat after our meal and of course our dishes were never taken away. He constantly battered us with "are you cool?" in an obvious attempt to rush us out. Erg. Frustrating. This is not the only time this has happened. I've been in there before where I watched a couple only receive one entree and FINISH without the other entree even coming out. They were much more vocal about it and caused quite the scene. The restaurant tried to make up for it by comping the meal that never came and wrapping it up in a to-go box, but the couple refused to take it and swore that they'd never be back. Bummer. Also, a recent issue I've had is that lately, some of the things aren't so clean. For example, my soup spoon had something really sticky on it. Almost as if a label had just been ripped off of it and the glue hadn't been completely removed. It was weird and gross, but I was afraid to say anything because, I mean, who knows what the server would've done. Another time, I practically had to peel my menu apart. The pages were stuck together with some sauce. It'd be nice if they had clean utensils and wiped down the menus. I'm not sure what the issue is, but their system obviously needs a little more structure. Not to mention, more professional servers. I do stand by my first statement. Their food is good. I like it a lot. Love their spicy ramen and sushi. I just wish the service would match their food. read more

If I'm going to be brutally honest, I was not expecting to find good sushi in Oregon. My husband and i just moved here from Hawaii three weeks ago and I thought I would have to give up raw fish because of it. Needless to say, I was a little scared to try sushi in this state but I definitely needed to prove myself wrong. This was the first, and so far only sushi place we've been to so far. I see no need for me to find another sushi place either because I love so many menu items from this place! Just in the three weeks my husband and I have been here, we've come to Misoya several times. Things we love: the bento box, Red Dragon Roll, spanish roll, house salad, pear and plum wine choices, and several other items. I love that they have a wide variety of dishes. Lots of Korean and Japanese influences on the menu. When I saw ramen and noodle dishes I knew they would have more than a standard sushi place. They have outdoor and indoor seating, but we usually sit at the sushi bar. For some reason I'm always freezing cold in there too! The atmosphere and attire are casual and the prices are pretty average. I did find a few spelling errors on the menu... just saying. I love this place and I know it will be a regular stop for my husband and I. read more

The food was delicious! The service, however, was disappointing, We had a rainbow roll, Mongolian beef, and beef yakisoba. Servers came and went, we felt very ignored. read more

Pretty much the only thing good about this place was that it was open! Well, there were two good items.....the rice and the wine....everything else tasted FISHY ..... like OLD fish.....like they just MIGHT change the frying oil every couple of months. Lesson learned. We won't return. read more

If you like healthy food this place has it all! Either order authentic Korean (my wife is Korean and knows) or Sushi. No disappointments! read more

The best Japanese food I've had in a long time!! Friendly, fast and artful presentation. We will be back!

Misoya is my go-to place for good food, and great service! I love the selection of different foods and speciality sushi rolls. We always enjoy our time there. My family and I (and business associates) have eaten there more than 30 times. I agree. Their waitstaff has had turnover with lots of new (young) people but we've always received good service. read more

I eat here at least once every time I am in Medford. It is a Korean-family owned sushi restaurant so they have a pretty extensive Korean menu in addition to sushi and Japanese food. Their bibimbap is my favorite. I'm not the best opinion for sushi as I don't eat too many of the raw rolls, but the rolls I have had have all been good. The service is good. I've had the same server and she's really nice and attentive, but honestly feel that she could know a little more about the things they serve there. I find the prices to be pretty reasonable, certainly much cheaper than I am used to paying. The quality does not suffer for the lesser expense. I'll definitely keep coming back here as long as I have to keep coming back to Medford. read more

Very disappointed, as a server, in their customer service. First time carrying out an order there and there wasn't any visual/clear signage or greeting where to go. I was IGNORED by staff for ten minutes because I guess I was standing in the wrong place. Instead of offering any type of assistance after making eye contact several times, they continued to help customers who came in after me. I had to chase down the manager while she was at a computer to get service in which he proceeded to address me with an attitude. Won't be going back there again. There's better sushi and customer service in the valley. read more

This is the place you want to go! The food is not only beautifully presented, but the taste is always on point. The inari is a wonderful sweet bite, the Crunchy roll and Salmon bento box (*THIS salmon was AMAZING!!!!!!!) are both top votes from me. Amber roll was great, and I've had quite a few others during my visits here, all noteworthy, but only so much space on yelp! This is my favorite sushi place in the valley! read more

Decent food, good quality of service. Most important of all, they open on holidays when the rest of the restaurants are all closed.

Came in for an order to go that was called in. They didn't start making it until I showed up. Wasn't that busy. No excuse for poor management. Food is okay but not worth the wait. read more

Really good food. Girlfriend doesn't like sushi, but likes cooked Japanese. I ordered Teriyaki chicken & this was really good. BUT, next time I'm here, I'm gonna order the sushi. I got to see the sushi chefs prep a huge sushi boat while waiting & it really looked great. Clean place. Nice staff. Of course, we would return. read more

As a visitor from Seattle I'm probably too tough of a judge of sushi. But I have to say this place exceeded my expectations for a non-coastal city. We decided to skip the nigiri for lunch and ordered three large rolls to share. They were so beautiful I took a photo and share on Facebook (yes, I'm the person who posts vacation photos of food). We enjoyed all three, which were imaginative combinations with fresh fish, but most important, good rice. We were pleasantly full when we left, on our way to taste wine. In Seattle this might have been 4 stars, but kudos to Misoya for a charming restaurant with good sushi. We'll be back next year. read more

Ehhhh. Well see it's Friday, and theres only 3 of us at work. So we decided to order in Lunch. So we decided some Sushi would sound good. And from what I've heard Misoya's is pretty tasty. So we call in our order and they say it will be ready in 15 minutes. So one guy goes over to pick it up. Well we're trying to figure out whos is who... and we realize that instead of 2 rolls of one thing we ordered they gave us 2 of another... and not only that the two we ordered were $12 rolls... we got some like $7 roll. With that said the roll we did get in the first bite was tasty. But after that I just noticed how it was drenched in mayonnaise. ick... The rick was super sticky so you'd lose like 1/4 of the roll cause it would stick to the plate. I'll probably give this place a try again, but... might be a while. read more

My new favorite Sushi/Japanese place in Southern Oregon. This place is great, delicious food and open late on Friday and Saturday nights! My favorite date night spot! The food is fresh. The miso is perfect. The kimchi is hot and spicy and freshly prepared. I love the atmosphere, especially this summer with the patio. The staff is really friendly and funny. It's just a great place and I hope it does well. read more
