    Thank you for a fantastic Christmas dinner. The food is top-notch and the service is out of this world. Thank you for always making me feel welcome and giving me a little place to have a peaceful moment of quiet in this crazy world. I didn't take a picture of my food but I should have. It was perfect in every way. I will be back !

    My clients picked this spot for lunch and they ordered online. I ordered the salmon teriyaki. When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked in and apparently spoke to the wrong person because he basically ignored me. When the lady server came out she greeted me and took my name and payment. Another nice lady came out and said the food would be ready soon. The food came out after about 5 more minutes and the nice lady handed me everything. When I got in I ate and the salmon was ok and so were the vegetables. I had a decent experience.

    They serve Hibachi and sushi. We didn't get the hibachi, as we've come to the point where the entertainment of it all has worn off and we're really going to restaurants for the flavor! But maybe another time I'll come back to try the hibachi. So we dove into the sushi. Upon entry the building seems like a small hole in the wall spot and you can tell almost immediately from the atmosphere, the patrons, the staffs friendliness, and the large groups that come in at a time that this has to be a local spot for good sushi. The cocktails weren't anything special but they do have a full bar so don't be shy asking for what you like, the staff will be cheeky and have fun talking to you! We started with a shrimp dumpling appetizer and some miso soup. The soup was average and the dumplings full of flavor, definitely recommend if that's your style. Moving into sushi, they have an extensive list of classic rolls as well as special rolls on the back. We ended up getting 8 rolls in total, 5 different classics and 2 different specials ( we doubled up on spicy scallop rolls!). The classic rolls have an amazing filling to rice ratio and the ingredients all tasted fresh! I don't have a single bad remark on any of the rolls we had. None of them were the best sushi I've ever had, but they were filled above average and flavor was also above average. I even tried a fully vegetarian squash roll and it was incredibly full and flavorful! The signature rolls are where they lost us both though. The Christmas roll was flat in flavor but the texture was great, and the rock n roll didn't quite deliver any "lobster" flavor I expected from lobster paste. So all in all stick with the classics unless something really pulls you in, but if it does hedge your expectations. The classic rolls are WAY MORE than enough to satisfy and have quite a variety. I'll look around to compare, but I think they landed another regular customer for sushi.

    5 adults and 2 children in our party. Our server, Dennis was absolutely amazing! My water was never empty, he was SO great with the boys (kids 4 and 3). Most servers treat kids like they're a bother. Not Dennis! He joked with them and brought them cups with lids! Dinner was delightful! Our chef was a lot of fun too! I never did catch the zucchini in my mouth but it didn't stop me from trying. Such a fun time. Had the shrimp and scallops. Yum! The others had steak and chicken dishes. All were delicious and perfectly prepared. Oh the dumplings appetizer was spot on! Also the Kahni special was out of this world! I could eat a few of them for an entree! So fresh and tasty! We celebrated my sister's birthday and Dennis brought her ice cream with a candle. It was great and everyone sang to her. Dennis really made our visit special. He is probably the best server we've had anywhere. We will be back for sure! Thank you.

    I hate here with 3 of my girlfriends, one of whom currently lives in Scranton. Though we made a reservation, we sat at the sushi bar since it was pretty packed. The staff was gracious and friendly. They offered to split up our checks since we'd planned on paying with 4 different debit cards. I ordered two sushi rolls, a sweet potato tempura and a Philadelphia roll. My friends ordered one of the Special Salmon rolls and the Kani salad. I don't like imitation crab, but the presentation of this salad was lovely. The crab was shredded with cucumber atop a clean, white plate. Beautiful! The sushi was fresh and presented nicely on white plates. We didn't wait too long for our food, in spite of the large amount of patrons in the restaurant. Two of us ordered dessert, red bean mochi. It was a great way to end the meal, but I've had better mochi. This was felt somewhat frozen. It was also freezing since the door was opened and closed constantly. Mind you, we were seated at the sushi bar, towards the back of the restaurant. Overall, great service, good sushi, clean restaurant, good company. When I'm in Scranton, Osaka will be my official sushi spot. Hopefully it'll be warmer!

    Prices are good. Seaweed salad was typical but good. Fish in philly roll was a little stringy. Baby octopus appetizer was good.

    Had dinner at Shinjiru Ramen on a Tuesday. It was pretty busy, the restaurant was full and the TVs…read morewere playing videos about ramen spots in Japan. The waitress came by, took our orders, and brought water. For appetizers, we got the bone-in chicken special and the chasu monster roll. I was expecting the bone-in chicken to be a piece of bone in fried chicken coated with panko breadcrumbs. It was more like a chicken meatball coated in panko with a chicken bone shoved into it. It was dry, and i would not order it again. The chasu monster roll was just a maki roll with chasu inside. It was OK. I got the spicy miso chicken karaage ramen for my entree. The broth was not too heavy, or spicy. It was also loaded with karaage. The wavy noodles held the sauce well, i would order this again. I also got to try my wife's shoyu ramen. It was also good. Not a bad place to grab dinner if you're visiting the family resorts in the area.

    We were passing by the area and stopped for dinner. The restaurant is clean and well presented…read more The food was made fresh and delicious. The ramen broth was tasteful to my liking (not too salty). I also had the special beef fried rice. My only disappointment was that I didn't get the cucumbers and tomatoes that were supposed to come with the rice dish. The staff were friendly and attentive as well. If you want an authentic restaurant, this is the place.

It's tucked in a little off the road and could be easy to miss. They are open from 11 am to 8 pm. I highly suggest you call in your order as there was only one person ahead of me and I waited almost 20 minutes for the fresh cooked deliciousness that was my lunch. It was TOTALLY worth the wait; however, if you are limited on time, order ahead. The food was delicious! I ordered the chicken/shrimp hibachi, which came with perfectly cooked Japanese fried rice, vegetables (onion, carrot, squash and some kind of bluish cabbage?) and "yummy" sauce (which IS very yummy BTW--ask for extra and thank me later). The shrimp was grilled and not overcooked. The grilled chicken chunks were tender. The food was so good I almost choked on a piece of rice from inhaling my food lol. #IcantbelieveIatethewholething They give you a nice portion of food--I was full a little more than halfway through but it was so good, I couldn't stop eating. Now I want a nap! I am so happy this place is only a hop, skip and a jump from my workplace! Yes, they take credit cards.
