    Lacking but it's what you'd expect from food from the food court. Everything is about average for about $10.

    Sarku Japan at Columbiana Centre in Columbia is a great place to go for delicious and fresh Japanese food that is well prepared. I really like the selection and prices that they have available here. Good experience every time I have been here.

    Very, very generous portion. Good value for the money. My son ordered the teriyaki chicken which was served with fried rice, grilled vegetables and lots of teriyaki sauce. You can watch them cook your meal in the grill.... Get this in the to-go box, since you won't be able to eat it all in one meal! This is one of the favorites when we go to the mall.

    Love this place! Reminds me of Quickway back at home in Maryland. They taste just the same great place for affordable Japanese food.

    It is still the best sushi bar in the Southeast. They have the largest variety of fresh fish and…read moreother seafood, but they also make traditional chicken and steaks. The owner / chef Ryo takes care in what he's making and shows great pride in his finished product and it tastes great too. He gets fish that other restaurants do not have access to or have chosen not to purchase. I have seen flying fish, jellyfish, fresh Cobia, fresh Spanish mackerel, live clams and scallops and other seafood that you cannot obtain anywhere else. If you are looking for the best sushi in the area, you don't need to go anywhere else. You can go anywhere and buy a California roll but that is really not what I would consider sushi that's like going to Ruth Chris steakhouse and ordering a hot hot dog.

    The fact that I'm the only Asian customer at this place says it all…read more I ordered Inakaya Fried Chicken, which is a split bone chicken wing per their menu. I was given chicken nuggets and told they don't have chicken wings... Glad I found their menu online to prove I wasn't crazy. Everything is either overcooked, dry, or super salty. No idea why this place was even packed. Sushi rice was dry. The chicken nugget thing mentioned above was overly dry and salty. Tonkotsu Ramen was overcooked. Either they chose the wrong type of noodle or let it sit forever before serving it. The two slices of meat that came with the ramen was maybe from pork chop meat? Usually it's made with cha shew meat or pork belly. Two super lean and dry slices of meat made the bowl look like a joke. The noodle was salty enough that I don't even want to try the broth. Edamame was okay. Other than the fact that they don't look appetizing, the shell was brownish and many bean pockets (if you know what I was trying to say) were empty, that's probably the best dish on the table. If you want sushi or ramen or anything that's on their menu, do yourself a favor and please try to find it somewhere else.
