    Salmon on the Beach
    Claire C.

    The salmon on the beach roll is truly as good as other reviews say! A must order. I was really excited for the tuna tartare but it felt like it was lacking a bit. Loved the spicy orange chicken which was only a little bit spicy. Pad thai and fried rice were good. They have some really fun looking sushi rolls. Prices are good, sushi is a bit higher priced than other places but seems worth it. The entree dishes are priced similar to take out spots, but the experience is elevated, so definitely worth it. We made a reservation for a weekday dinner. It got packed in there by 6pm. The restaurant got extremely loud. Our server was good but we felt like she was frazzled. The bus man was amazing, quick with water refills and took each dirty plate as soon as we were finished. I will be back, maybe not at peak hours so I can hear conversation a bit better.

    Mink Ming Shrimp
    Olivia A.

    This place never disappoints! The food is always amazing and so fresh. The atmosphere is fun and welcoming, and the wait staff are consistently kind and attentive. Some of my absolute favorites: the Ming shrimp and lettuce wraps (so crispy and flavorful, perfect starters!), the sizzling rice soup (my #1 go-to), and the steak and chicken dishes, which are always cooked perfectly. Honestly, I can't even pick a favorite dish because everything is so good. Highly recommend if you're looking for great food, great service, and a great vibe!

    We went here for dinner Saturday night May 31, and had excellent service and food. The ambiance was nice-quite quiet-easy to converse.

    Menu for happy hour
    Ben Y.

    They do a pretty good set of food for Happy Hour. Maybe slightly pricier than other places but they have alot of sushi rolls on the menu. Service is good. Opens at 330, but people seemed to start rolling in around 4-430pm. Parking is good except on Wednesday when they do the club night. I liked the Gyoza alot and thought the sushi was good. Not pictured is pad thai, which was a dinner menu item and not a happy hour item. That was so-so, their version has a sauce which tasted good but wasn't what I was expecting.

    The food was really good, but the atmosphere wasn't what I expected. For the price, I thought it would feel a little more elevated. The paper tablecloth and menus made the experience feel cheaper than expected, especially for a graduation meal. I noted on the reservation that it was a celebration, but nothing about the experience really felt special. I'd still eat here again, but probably not for a special occasion.

    Top level Asian fusion / Chinese / Japanese restaurant owned by generations of the Chinese family (where Gloria Chin, the Hollywood actress belonged to but not the same Chin's where Vincent Chin hailed from. Interior vibe very cool with very awesome paintings on the wall; there are also stylish areas for sitting outside and in atriums. The Kim chi crabcakes were exceptional and the spicy seafood noodles were also very good. Service also very attentive. Highly recommended!

    I was in town visiting family and decided to take my sister and her family to eat sushi. I made a…read morereservation about half a week in advance to ensure they could make space for 3 adults and 6 children. We went on Sunday, August 9, 2026. Not sure if they accept reservations for small parties but thankfully we were able to because it is a fairly small space and all the tables were occupied. We kind of rushed to leave after we finished eating because we saw quite a few people waiting for a table. They also seem to have a lot of to-go orders as they were constantly packing orders and before I left, I saw the sushi tickets literally printing non-stop to the point where I saw it start to pile up on the sushi counter. It must be a really popular spot for sushi considering it is in a very unassuming strip mall that doesn't really have many open businesses (at least there is very easy parking). When I walked in, I asked about a sushi boat and I specifically picked this spot after looking at photos of sushi boats and wanted my nieces and nephews to have a fun experience eating one of their favorite foods. The server told me I would have to order at least minimum amount and she'd have to see how many rolls we ordered (definitely wasn't a problem). We must have ordered like 10 rolls and a few appetizers. I can't remember all the rolls but they were all fresh and high quality. We also got a couple nigiri pieces (salmon and squid) along with our Agedashi Tofu and Takoyaki. Everything was absolutely delicious. The only thing was sometimes it took a while to flag down a server to get our teas refilled but not a huge deal as I saw they were all busy at a full restaurant. Our server was very nice, we got our sushi boat, we all ate everything, and the kids were happy.

    I've been wanting to try this spot for a while, so I ordered a little bit of everything: miso soup,…read moreTako Su, gyoza, shumai, sashimi appetizer, beef bibimbap, and two sushi rolls -- the S n T and White Tiger Roll. The miso soup came out first and was pretty standard. The Tako Su had large slices of octopus with plenty of cucumbers. It was decent, nothing standout. The gyoza was actually an accidental order because I thought I had ordered shumai. Looking back, I probably should've realized something was off when the server asked if I wanted them steamed or grilled. Ironically, they ended up being one of the better items. I took them home and even cold later on, they were still good. The sashimi appetizer had a nice variety and was probably one of the stronger dishes of the night. Unfortunately, the shumai completely missed the mark. It was very wet -- you can even see it in the photo -- and just not how shumai is supposed to be prepared. Personally, I think Asahi Sushi does this dish far better, including the sauce. The beef bibimbap was also disappointing for me. I love bibimbap served in a scorching hot stone bowl where the rice crisps up and caramelizes at the bottom. This lacked all of that. In my opinion, both Asahi Sushi and Sumo Sushi do bibimbap significantly better. If that's what you're craving, this wouldn't be my recommendation. As for the sushi rolls -- the S n T and White Tiger Roll -- they were just bland. Not terrible, not inedible, but very forgettable. Overall, my experience was okay, but nothing about it stood out enough to make me want to return. The servers were pleasant, but there were no recommendations or guidance offered, and the food never really moved beyond average. I ended up giving this place 2 stars for three main reasons: 1. The servers lacked recommendations or menu guidance. 2. The food overall was bland. 3. There are significantly better sushi options nearby. If you're looking for exceptional sushi, udon, and bibimbap, I'd personally recommend Asahi Sushi instead. It's only about 12 minutes away and, in my opinion, absolutely worth the drive for the quality, presentation, service, and overall experience.

Things like that make you appreciate an establishment much more. The sushi was basic in my opinion. Nothing incredible, but not bad by any means. The highlight for me was the katsu. Unexpectedly, it was the star for us - super crunchy, juicy, and delicious! They have a lot of Korean and Japanese options on the menu, which I can appreciate. The place was clean and tidy. There was Korean music playing in the background as well as different Korean shows on the TVs; a nice touch. Nice cafe setup for sure. I will for sure be back to try more entree items! Keep in mind this place can get really busy at dinner time, so plan ahead!

I got the classic tonkotsu ramen and it was really good! The broth was flavorful and complex, the pork was tender, and the egg perfectly jammy. Apparently they make their noodles fresh everyday. The price of a ramen bowl was on par with what I'm used to (~$20 with tax + tip) but the sushi seemed a little pricey. I will have to come back to try it.
