    Japanese Fried Chicken
    Tania T.

    Located in Tyler's food court, next to Panda. The Japanese fried chicken is cooked very nicely. It's akin to popcorn chicken. They cut it bite-sized so the pieces of chicken are easy to eat, crispy, and juicy inside. The spicy mayo sauce is a little watered down and very thin. But the chicken is seasoned nicely and has its flavor. Self-service order and beware, the machine asks for a tip after you place your order. Ambiance is consistent of any other food court within a mall. Plenty of seats.

    Was offered a sample of the chicken and hubby and I decided to try the teriyaki chicken plates with noodles, rice, and veggies. Before we got our food, the cook greeted us. We received our food and began to dig in. Minutes later, we had finished everything. Loved the food and will definitely come back again!

    The food is pretty good and I came closet to when they were first open. I would say the service was pretty good, but nothing really stood out. There is something missing that would just really make it sing but it's a good overall teriyaki chicken dish. It's in the mall so the ambiance is very casual.

    Went to order food here and saw this cockroach run through and hide in the food area! I brought it up to the employee and they simply brushed me off and said who cares, this is disgusting!!!

    The chicken was good but the beef was questionable. Should have looked up the reviews before eating there.

    I have been going to Sushi Ok for years, but never did a Yelp review until today. This is not an…read moreall You can eat which I appreciate because it means they use really high quality products. I have found my favorites and have them most often, but I like to venture into new rolls and I'm never disappointed. The staff is always welcome, friendly and provide amazing service. During the pandemic we ate here once a week to keep supporting local businesses and they knew me by name. This is a hidden gem If you go for a birthday they have flashing neon lights and crazy music that plays that make you feel emboldened and special all at once. Always very clean with multiple tvs that don't mess with the ambience because they keep the volume down.

    Food and Service Not OK!…read more We used to come to this place every other week, or at least once a month, because we really liked it. Unfortunately, today we had the worst experience. I ordered the salmon teriyaki plate. The menu says the salmon is cooked/grilled, but mine was clearly fried. It was extremely dry and overcooked. I mentioned it to the waitress, and all she said was that it could be a little dry because the sauce is served on the side. I explained that it wasn't a little dry--it was very dry and definitely not grilled as advertised. She acted like that was completely normal, which was very disappointing. When you're paying $25 for a plate, you expect good quality and flavor. Sadly, both the food and the customer service have gone downhill. I can no longer recommend this place. If you're thinking about trying it, be aware that you may end up wasting your money on a disappointing meal and poor service.

I am well pleased with the flavor, the tenderness of the meat, the seasoning, and the batter is not too thick, but perfectly crunchy!! I will absolutely be coming back! the crispy tofu was great as well. it is fried food, but I didn't feel gross eating it so that's also a plus. it was freshly cooked and so so so yummy!! - the only thing I will say is that I had trouble finding this place as it is not called "Neko Cafe" but I believe they have rebranded to "Earth Cafe". I'd like to try their drinks soon too. but, definitely make it a point to grab some of their food if you go!

The popcorn chicken is also a reliable order- I love the crisp basil leaves that is sprinkled on it. The only caveat is that the online order pick up is not as quick as you would think "next available" would be. If I know I'll be craving boba, I like to put my order earlier for whatever pick up time works for me.

    SAME RESTAURANT AS TAIYO'S SUSHI & POKI…read more We were heading back from Joshua Tree to OC and got immense cravings for something soupy. It was either eat in Riverside or wait one more hour and have a late night dinner. We decided to eat in Riverside despite knowing their limited soup options so we wouldn't have to eat too late. We got to the spot around 8:30ish but we couldn't find a place that was labelled Shabu Garden so we circled around for a couple of minutes before realizing that Taiyo's Sushi & Poki was what we were looking for. Not sure why they have different names, but it looks like they're under new ownership so I guess they haven't had the chance to change their name? On Sunday evenings, they close at 9:30pm, so I honestly wasn't sure they were going to accept us. Luckily for us, they still accepted our walk-in and we were seated promptly. They have 3 AYCE options: AYCE shabu, AYCE sushi, AYCE sushi & shabu, and they also have a premium option of AYCE sashimi. The prices seemed quite reasonable for sushi and hot pot at $41.99 but considering the time that we had until the last call (9PM), we just opted for the shabu and ordered as many meats as we could. The servers were extremely attentive knowing that we didn't have much time until the last call so they brought out a total of 3 rounds of meat. The owner or the manager (couldn't tell) graciously offered to freshly fry any shrimp tempura that we wanted, and we were so grateful for that. Just note that there are only 3 types of broth to choose from: original, spicy, miso They have a buffet section for the veggies, noodles, and seafood. The selection is decent. They had my usual favorites like spinach, mushrooms, napa cabbage, clams, and they even had crab. The hot foods section consisted of fried foods such as fried calamari, fried shrimp tempura, etc. I can't say too much about the buffet section since we arrived there late, but we basically cleaned up majority of it. Meats were decent. No wagyu for sure. There's not a lot of selection but for the price you're paying ($31.99/pp), I'm not complaining. I'd say the pricing and value you get from this spot matches with the quality of food provided. If it were pricier, than I would prefer just getting my shabu fix in OC. The next time we're in the area, we hope to try the AYCE shabu + sushi option.
