    Had a taste for noodles tonight, so I decided I would get some as I rode near by. Went inside and they weren't as crowded as expected. Service was fast & efficient until I got home and realized one of my meals didn't have any shrimp. Portion size is ok but it lacked what should've been included. I ordered one beef & shrimp with extra shrimp and one with chicken & shrimp w/ extra shrimp. The chicken & shrimp meal had NO SHRIMP at all included. I paid extra for that and can't stand when I don't get what I paid for ‍. Ambiance: ok

    Went there for lunch. Used a 5 dollar reward any food purchase. Their food is good. They also sell sushi. It's located in Laurel, MD. It's not a big restaurant. This is a place where you can go for a quick lunch or dinner. They also do mobile ordering and deliveries.

    If you want some quick Asian food, this is the place. I've always driven by this location but never had a desire to try it out. One day, I decided to give them a try. Luckily, the menu was posted on the outside of the door for me to look over before I stepped inside. The food is decent. I ordered shrimp teriyaki with fried rice. It comes with veggies. I added a salmon avocado roll onto my order. I'm not one of those people that absolutely love sushi, so I was a bit meh about it but what the heck. I have tasted some good California rolls and was looking to expand my palate. So, the shrimp and fried rice was good. It wasn't the best I've ever had but I can see myself getting this dish again. Now that sushi...let's just say it's still in my refrigerator and I visited a few days ago. The salmon was raw. I wasn't prepared to eat raw fish. *sigh* Overall, my food was good enough to visit this Sarku Japan again. Who doesn't love food quick when they're pressed for time...or not? I'll check out other locations as well.

    Sarku is pretty good. The server who took our order seemed like she wasn't having the best day and wasn't the most pleasant person to talk with. Food wise, I was pleased. We ordered the chicken bento box and chicken rice bowl with a side of mixed vegetables. Both were in a nice container and presented well. The chicken was tender and each came with extra sauce to put on top. The bento box also had California rolls and fried dumplings. I got a cup of water and it was obvious no one had drank water in a while because of the scaling (minerals) that were in the bottom of my cup. Overall the restaurant was pretty clean.

    All the wonders of a mall food court Sarku, now in a restaurant. Actually though, I think not being in a mall food court is an advantage. The restaurant is quieter and more relaxing. Plus you get free self-serve refills on beverages. As for the food, I didn't think it was any different from what one would get at a mall food court Sarku but that is fine. As for parking, I had an easier time parking in the large lot behind the restaurant and entering via the back door. This shopping center can be quite busy at times.

    My fiancé found this spot while he was out buying car tools. The funny the story was that I had mention that a way to a girls heart is to surprise her with sushi! Little did I know in this pandemic, we been holding back on saving $ on dining out...this man brought me affordable sushi (all of the sushi on menu) and it was good and enough to satisfy my cravings!

    I've ordered takeout from here a few times and I'm addicted to the tempura California roll. The dumplings are also excellent!

    This has to be the worst "Japanese" food I've ever had. I'd rather eat gas station rolls. Yuck. $40 not well spent.

    My daughter put this spot on my radar for Happy Hour, and let's just say--she didn't steer me…read morewrong. We made the drive from DC to check out this sushi gem in Laurel, and it was absolutely worth it. Happy Hour runs from 4 PM to 7 PM, and the deals are the kind that make you want to come back again next week. Sushi is half-priced (yes, half!), sake is just $4, and shooters are $6. In this economy? That's a win. Do yourself a favor and grab a seat at the bar. Deidra was our bartender, and she was top-tier--attentive, friendly, and on point the entire time. You can tell when someone takes pride in their work, and she definitely does. Great service makes good food even better. Plenty of parking, strong drinks, fresh and flavorful sushi--no fluff, just facts. If you're willing to take a short drive for a solid Happy Hour that delivers on value and quality, this Laurel sushi spot deserves a visit. Sometimes the old-fashioned way is still the best way: good food, good prices, and great service.

    We went on a Tuesday evening around 5:30. We opted for table dining versus hibachi. We had cooked…read moresushi and fried chicken. Everything was DELICIOUS and beautifully plated. The server was attentive and pleasant. It wasn't very crowded. In fact, no one was on the hibachi side. Most of the patrons sat at the bar watching the news. Oh, I had the Lychee Martini-delish! My cousin had a shooter (I don't remember the name). I treated my cousin for his birthday- two drinks, 6 different cooked sushi dishes and the fried chicken, with included 18% added, plus an added tip was exactly $73.00. For sure, I'd return. I'd even go by myself and have dinner at the bar. Very very Casual dress is appropriate. The only qualm is the reservation process. I emailed 4 days ago. I received an immediate response indicating that someone would call me back. When I didn't hear from anyone, I called last night. I was told that 2 people walking in at 5:30 on a Tuesday would be fine- it was.

    I ordered from here on DoorDash tonight and my tummy is satisfied. I got a shrimp bento box with…read morevegetable fried rice and the shrimp tempura roll. The bento box is massive. I could've ordered that alone and been fine, but I was also craving sushi. I'm saving most of the fried rice and vegetables for tomorrow. The bento box was pretty good. The vegetables tasted very fresh (I love my veggies). The rice was a little sticky for my liking, but the shrimp was good and plentiful. The California rolls were standard, and the dumplings & spring rolls were both good. The only negative I have for those is that they did not include a sauce for them. Luckily I keep sweet chilli sauce in my fridge. The shrimp tempura roll was okay. It had a slight bitterness to it that I think is because it was fried in old oil. The bento box arrived piping hot, which I liked. This was after being the second stop on the delivery. Overall, I think Quickway Japanese is solid and I would order from them again if I want a quick sushi/bento meal.

We have been familiar with the area for years, as my father-in-law lived 3 minutes away, and recently we realized this was his go-to carryout. After 3 visits, I can say it's one of the best in the DMV, thanks to its flavor and food choices. You will find Japanese options like sushi, American-Chinese dishes like orange chicken, similar dishes, and Cantonese food like roast duck, Hong Kong-style noodle soups, and whole fish. They are family-owned and operated. Every time we come, the elder father is always gracious and provides excellent service. The restaurant is always quiet; you can hear conversations in the back, and as customers arrive to pick up their orders, we haven't witnessed any negative interactions. Customers are always happy with their food, and the staff say thank you. The only negative is the space. The building itself is older and outdated. In the summer, it is hot, and now in the winter, there is no heat. They have found ways to make it work, like space heaters on each table, but it can still get uncomfortable if you are dining in. The back area near the bathroom and the bathroom itself need a thorough cleaning. To me, it's a turnoff; it doesn't affect the food, but it does affect the dine-in experience. Again, overall, I love their food and believe it's a local gem worth a try.
