    We visited some time ago. And i finally remembered to post a review. They were so new back then their sign hadnt changed. We were seated immediately. And service was impeccable. She checked back on us periodically. Hubby ordered a beer and i ordered a hot tea Beer came pretty promptly and my tea took some time. We ordered tako yaki for appetisers, spicy dried ramen and beef hibachi That took some time to come as well. Ambiance is a little strange. They basically did not redecorate after the last tenant moved out. Pretty much eveything remained the same so it felt like a sports bar masquerading as a japanese restaurant. The takoyaki was not bad really. The tako yaki was delicious served in a pretty plate. The octopus in it was a little small and a little cool. But the batter of the takoyaki was delicious and crispy. My ramen was interesting. The noodles itself was speingy and flavoured well. The meat was over salty and hard. Beef hibachi according to my husband was only ok. He had to ask for sriraccha to eat it. Overall, it might just be teething problems. I'd like to come back again to try it. The service was fantastic. I wish them the best

    Very good food with good service. I become a regular. This is not a sushi restaurant. I enjoy a different kind of Japanese food.

    Located in the Haymarket, parking can be a bit of a challenge, but it's absolutely worth it. The…read morerestaurant has a great setup inside with an open kitchen and sushi bar. Seating is limited, but it feels cozy and intimate. The staff was outstanding from the greeter to the servers, friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The menu has a great variety, from ramen and teriyaki boxes to rice dishes and sushi. We started with the soft shell crab appetizer, which was incredibly fresh with a light, perfectly crisp tempura batter. For our main course, we went with a selection of sushi, and it was phenomenal. The fish was extremely fresh, served at the perfect temperature, and every flavor paired beautifully. One thing I really appreciated is they don't smother their sushi in sauces, they let the freshness and quality of the fish speak for itself, the way it should. Quite possibly the best sushi in town!!

    Hard to find parking along this street. We chanced upon a lot almost right in front of the…read morerestaurant. They seated us immediately. We were early on a Sunday. We ordered a variety of stuff. As appetisers We ordered fried calamari, it's only now that I realized I didn't grab a pix of the calamari. It was decent with a creamy sriracha sauce. I then had my agadashi tofu. It was crisp and nice. The batter could be lighter and the tofu could be the softer kind... - to me that would be nirvana. But for this- it was good. My handroll and sushi was fresh and delicious. It was a good afternoon with the good food My drink happy sumo- was nice just didn't really do it for me though. Ambiance was nice and zen. I like it. We will be back.

    The food was amazing, and the service was great. Parking in the University Square parking garage,…read moretake the elevator or stairs to the street, and it puts you out right at the restaurant door. We stopped by for lunch around noon on a Saturday (college not in session, so low traffic). We have finally found out go-to restaurant in Lincoln, NE! Everything we ate was best-in-class, exceptionally flavorful, generously portioned, fresh and homemade. We ordered the 4 Birria tacos, Elote corn, Birria Mac and Cheese, Birria Nachos and original horchata. It was all so delicious we decided to top it off with a Birria Grilled Cheese Sandwich for dessert. Honestly, I can't say which was my favorite. They were all different and terrific in their own way even though there was the same Birria meat in most items. The Birria broth was very good!!! We will be back!

We got in around 7 pm. Ordered at the cashier and food was brought to us within 15 minutes. Unfortunately, it wasn't as expected. Portion was not as expected. Thin layer of supposedly rice but tasted more like boxed couscous that was microwaved. The sauce and the beef was oversalted. Lots of onion and cilantro. Over heavy onion. It wasnt cheap for that either. Wont be back. I've never been so disappointed in a restaurant before.

When my order arrived, the food was cold, which may have been more of a DoorDash issue since the delivery took quite a while. However, the bigger problem was the roll itself. The fish tasted terrible--so bad that I spit it out. I've had this roll many times before and know what it should taste like, and this was definitely not right. On top of that, I was missing a crab rangoon. When I tried to resolve it through DoorDash, they only offered a partial refund, so I called the restaurant directly. The employee I spoke with was argumentative from the start. When I explained that the roll was cold, soggy, and tasted like bad fish, he had excuse after excuse for why it was that way. The reality is that the food was not edible, and I had to spend more money to get something else to eat. As for the missing crab rangoon, he insisted that he personally packed my order and knew it was in the bag. He repeatedly told me he put it in there and suggested the DoorDash driver must have taken it. I told him I didn't care who put it in the bag--the point is that it wasn't in my order when it arrived. Instead of trying to help or make it right, he argued with me and basically accused someone else of stealing it. Mistakes happen, but poor customer service and refusing to take concerns seriously are what earned this review. I won't be ordering from here again.
