When I asked her how I can leave a tip (because there was no option to), she explained that this is a self-serve place, so tip is not needed. The stores at the airport even asks for tip, so I was pleasantly surprised and appreciated the notion. I ordered their pho dac biet. I was asked if I wanted a lot of noodles or not. I was taken aback by the question, so I told her just the normal amount is fine. She then shares that their portion is not big which is what she asks all her customers when they order pho. The bowl was quite sad looking, lacked green onions, cilantro, meats, and no kidding on the noodles. The broth was clean but lacked that beefy richness. The herbs were fresh and they offered jalapeno slices and a line wedge unlike the place I went to on Sunday. But for the price, I could not expect more.

IMHO, this is pretty good Asian cuisine but not nearly the best in Ann Arbor. My Bulgogi Beef was very satisfying, the girls both got ramen bowls that they enjoyed. The service was less than impressive. One check on us, not even topping off the water visits and not really speaking to us at all. Disappointing. I think that's a fluke and want to return and add stars. It's fine if you're looking for an informal sit-down at an inexpensive price. I wouldn't bring someone here that you want to impress. 08/25

But we honestly could have split my ramen and we would have been just as full. Server was very honest about vegetarian/vegan options. That being said, there is only 1 vegan safe option (miso ramen) on the entire menu, so although it was tasty, this place is not the most vegetarian/vegan safe option. Flavor wise, the food delivered! Very warming meal and overall very tasty!! We were seating almost immediately, and served just as quickly by very accommodating staff. Decor is cute!

Service is very personable and attentive. Going above and beyond. This place is going to be busy once the word is out that they are open for lunch! So few places are open for lunch downtown anymore. Don't skip Tabe as an option. You'll be surprised. The dining room is beautiful but a bit dark during lunch. Nice a cool though. There are TVs just nothing tuned in yet. Idk if the upstairs is open but not necessary to go up there really, when the server will bring it down for you. Large comfortable booths or sit at the bar is a large cushioned chair. More to come. I have to try more of the lunch menu.

The service was very fast and the restaurant wasn't too crowded but not empty. We ordered 2 house salads for the table, spicy salmon crispy rice, spicy tuna crispy rice, and edamame all to share. Everything was great, however, I would get the spicy salmon crispy rice over the spicy tuna. For rolls I got a yellowtail scallion and spicy salmon. The salmon was just covered in spicy mayo which I was not a fan of so I wouldn't recommend that/wouldn't get it again. Definitely just stick to easy and simple rolls, I guarantee that will be best. They also start you off with free miso soup which was so good and we enjoyed that. My friends also enjoyed the nigiri, and in agreement with simple rolls. The sushi in ann arbor has been pretty good, but I think this is the best I have had so far and definitely the cheapest. It ended up being $19 a person before tip, which is unheard of. Would recommend and I will be back:)

I went back to Azalea for a family dinner and didn't realize they had changed their menu since the…read morefirst time I visited. The quality of the food is still amazing and worth a visit, but there were some items I wish stayed on the menu. For example, the spicy salmon crispy rice is no longer available and only available in the tuna form. The portions are also smaller, now coming in three small bites rather than the two big bites from before. The gochujang rigatoni and kimchi paella are also unavailable. Some new dishes I tried and loved were the short rib and the grilled octopus. The octopus was incredibly tender and I couldn't stop eating it! It also comes with delicious potatoes. The short rib was a larger portion and also tasted delicious. The rest of my table ordered the miso cod. The miso cod was delicious, but the portion was quite small and arguably not worth its price compared to the short rib. Cocktails that I recommend are The Gatsby and The Promised Neverland if you like sweeter drinks! For the service, we felt a bit rushed as we were dining. Normally the drinks come out followed by the appetizers, but our appetizers came first and the drinks came with our mains. I think there was a missed opportunity to sip on our drinks and chat with our party as we enjoyed the restaurant's ambience. Otherwise, the food came quickly and was well served.

I'm pretty torn on this one, hence the 2 stars. I came here with a friend for dinner and we were…read morerudely greeted and told that it would be best if we sat at the bar because they were busy. It was restaurant weekend in downtown Ann Arbor and we didn't have a reservation, so we obliged, although the space was pretty empty. Once we got to the bar, the young waitress slammed menus down in front of us and acted extremely annoyed by our presence. After bothering us every minute for the next 5 minutes to order, me and my friend put in our orders in haste. We then waited for 30 minutes for our meals to arrive. I got the "Amazing Shrimp" sushi roll and my friend got the "Grilled Angus Short Rib". As noted on the menu it comes with Mashed Potatoes, Shishito Peppers, and Garlic Chives. Per my friend's request, the order did not come with the Shishito Peppers or Garlic Chives, but it also didn't have the potatoes. After asking for the potatoes, our server went back and we could hear her yelling at the kitchen staff. Minutes later she came out with a bowl of 3 potatoes, not mashed and not hot. My roll was great and I'd definitely order again if I come back, but I'm honestly not too inclined to after this experience. Lastly, the restaurant itself was freezing. It was a cold day but it was way colder inside than it should've been. We ended up keeping our coats on for most of dinner. I really do want to like it here because the vibe seemed very modern and clean, however the service, food, and level of professionalism fell short of my expectations.

The inside is so cute and the plates are so pretty too! Not only are the physical dishes cool, but the presentation of the sushi was too! I got 2 orders of the simple tuna, and one New York. My sister got an order of the California rolls and 2 shrimp tempura orders. Presentation was fantastic, and the sushi was divine. The salmon was so tender and almost buttery in consistency, and the veggies inside the rolls are so fresh and crisp. I always find sushi so refreshing and it hit the spot. I'd also like to mention how fantastic they are about dietary restrictions. Tons of vegan/vegetarian options PLUS GLUTEN FREE SOY SAUCE, APPS, AND A MENU. For the celiacs out there: I didn't get glutened! They took it seriously and I had no issues! If you're not sure where to go, go to Kanbu. The entire meal was around $65, and we had a lot of sushi plus a massive pot of tea. Sushi can be so expensive and I find this place to have great prices, especially for the size and quality of sushi! If you want to support authentic, local places in Ann Arbor, go to kanbu! My only regret is that I didn't take pictures.

The only thing to note is that the entrance to the restaurant is inside the building complex.
