    a plate of chicken and broccoli
    Sharon C.

    Food always fresh and very tasty.... Never disappoints and customer service always friendly and helpful!!

    Chicken teriyaki with veggies and white rice - enough for two lunches and delicious!
    Sue C.

    Yesterday we had to stop by Sears (really, 'had' to because it's not my fav store, except for the optical area) and we were hungry. I would rather leave the mall and go to a local restaurant but for convenience sake we got lunch at the food court. Ambiance: We've not been to the mall in a very long time and were surprised at how nice the food court area looked - the furniture was white - regular and bistro level tables, comfy regular and bistro height chairs, nice area rugs,etc. Options: After strolling past the usual suspects (pizza, burgers, subs, etc.) I chose Sarku Japan and ordered chicken teriyaki with white rice and a diet tea. There was a line and there were 2 cooks making tons of grilled food - most of which was chicken. The dish and the tea were $8.88 but I got 2 lunches from the container of food so I have no complaints. To Go Process: The cooks lined up to-go boxes with white and fried rice and then added the veggies and protein to each box. People on line grabbed their boxes and went on their way - it was a pretty quick process. Food: Besides being very generous with the portion, the flavor was just great!The finely sliced cabbage and thin carrot slices were piled on top of the flat top grill and a metal bowl was placed over the pile. The cook removed the bowl, moved the veggies around a bit and then covered the veggies with the bowl, doing this a few times before doling the veggies into the to-go boxes. That's all it took to make delicious veggies (next time I'm ordering a double portion of them!) The pink chicken pieces were poured onto the flat top grill and the cook rotated the pieces on the flat top until the chicken was firm and browned. He put generous portions into most of the boxes (one box got shrimp that he had cooked on the grill separately). The chicken is not in a sauce but the teriyaki flavor is in each piece. The line kept on growing and most people ordered chicken so the cooks kept on putting more chicken on the grill. A man in the back of the restaurant came to the front with a huge bowl of rice to keep the front of the house in supply. The rice was very sticky (I prefer sticky rice) so if you like each grain separated from one another you may want to order noodles instead. Sarku is a destination! After I had my fill (with more than half left over) I returned to the counter to thank the manager and tell her how delicious everything was. She was hustling and my guess is she is the owner. I suspect she and her family members (with whom she was speaking another language) are Chinese and not Japanese. The cooks looked like 2 Caucasian kids. Even if there isnt' a Japanese person in the place this food is very tasty and I'd go back there to have lunch any day - whether I was shopping at the mall or not!

    Chicken Terriyaki, double meat. To go order but had to eat some because the box wouldn't close!

    My favorite "mall food" at the Broward Mall (now known as Westfield). The food tastes fresh, as it should, since everything is made to order on the hibachi grill in front of you. Despite that, the wait is fairly quick. Prices are reasonable but have gone up recently. The chicken terriyaki is now $5.99, a dollar jump, and double meat is $1.49 ( but well worth the extra charge). I always get two meals out of one order because portions are generous. The food is not as greasy as other places, which I like.

    This is one of the best fast food Japanese place ever!! They really hook you up with the food portion! I got the chicken & shrimp teriyaki with white rice & hubby got it with just chicken, but the portion is so much that I had some leftovers to go. The sauce is delicious & I always ask extra on top of my rice. Great food court meal in between shopping.

    I've had their $4,99 Teriyaki Chicken special http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/iDDsTgKvptFUrZqfKUsB6Q?select=N0lBBIXWHsM_56rRWFeFQA for at least 100 times. I know it's Americanized Japanese, but man, it's sooooooo addictive! They added flour to their marinate in the teriyaki chicken and it added a slight and subtle crisp to the texture. Plus the flour soaked up all the delicious meat juices and teriyaki sauce, mixed with stir fried veggies and white rice and a tad of Sriracha sauce... nom nom! Double meat was $1.00, but now it's $1.29 (Inflation is a bitch) http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/iDDsTgKvptFUrZqfKUsB6Q?select=EBhXC89S3qjGxIn25dLAew You can substitute the white rice for fried rice, or no rice and just double portion of stir fried veggie, or no veggie and all rice. Oh and ask for a to go box, they give you a bit more than the dine in plate for some reason. I've tried other dishes http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/iDDsTgKvptFUrZqfKUsB6Q?select=bNsdoAlV0XfTt1_hRvJUEw, and pretty much all "meh". They also have locations in Pembroke Mall and Aventura Mall.

I decided this would be the day that I tried a fried sushi burrito that i had been seeing on tiktok. Lol! It was pretty busy inside. Families were there enjoying dinner. It was my first time. I was able to place a quick take out order. Waited about 15 minutes. Food dlcame with eel sauce and I had to pay $.50 for spicy mayo. I got the Salmon and Cream cheese roll. Once I opened my m food , I realized that I forgot to tell them not to cut it. But Whatever. That was my fault. Roll tasted good. I just feel like it could've been fried more. It wasnt as crunchy enough

    Alrighty this is rare for me, but this location is getting two stars…read more I want to start with review off by saying the food was not bad. It wasn't the food that was the issue it was the oddness of the service and my experience. 1) We were two people and clearly wanted a booth but apparently the were all taken so instead of sitting us at a table they say us at the tinest bar. 2) When I asked for eel sauce, she gave me terriaki instead and then proceeded to charge for it. I was like girl this is not eel sauce. I know eel sauce. It was terrible. 3) The sushi roll was so small. I ordered a rainbow roll and I was still hungry. Also I would like to add they didn't have tuna crispy rice!! 4) Paid almost $100 and for what? I don't feel like it was worth it. 5) Service was slow for not such a busy night. Overall my experience here was more like "it doesn't matter who you are, it's who you're with." Because this sushi spot sucked. I know such better places and for it being a second date with someone I didn't do a good job at picking this restaurant to eat at.

I had a great time the first time, and yep it's still that girl. Let's talk about the vibe real quick. The ambiance is everything. Modern, and just really well put together. From the furniture textures to the contrast in colors it all feels super intentional but still chill. Like, they knew what they were doing when they designed this place. 10/10 on the setting alone. Let's get down to the items shall we? What We Had Drinks ____________________ + Naori Signature Drink ($15) : 8.4/10 This one's made with Pisco Berries and Triple Sec. It's a layered, fruity cocktail that's a little more complex. Personally, I prefer the Pisco Sour it's cleaner and more balanced for my taste. But if you like citrusy and berry-forward drinks, you might love this one. Again, these are my reviews based on my taste buds. You might feel differently and that's ok honey. + Espresso Martini ($16) : 9/10 Strong, chocolatey, and gets the job done. + Lychee Martini ($16) : 8.6/10 Clean and balanced. Not too sweet, just smooth and refreshing + Pisco Sour ($16) : 10/10 My fave. Fruity, with this nice cold foam on top. Pretty sure there were peach or passionfruit notes in there. So good. * Shots - We also did a round (Don Julio, I think), and it kept the vibe going. Appetizers/Entrees __________________ +Nikkei Tiradito ($19) : 10/10 Thin tuna slices with a shouyu sauce that had a little citrusy kick. I could've had another plate just for myself. +Grilled Octopus ($20) : 8.4/10 This was good! Cooked well, had a nice char. Not my favorite thing on the table, but still strong comes with Peruvian corn and potato. +Arroz Chaufa Special ($24) : 10/10 Babyyy this dish was everything. Wok-fried rice, perfectly seasoned. That filet was so tender, and the shrimp just brought it all together. Easy standing ovation for me. * Dessert - I honestly can't remember what we ordered for dessert, but it was decent. Nothing crazy. I'd give it a 7/10. Overall Experience: 10/10 Customer Service: 10/10 Would I Be Back? Without a doubt. I even told my mom about this place and I think she went a couple months ago! This establishment has been Tamied™.

It smelled so, so good. I had called and the guy said they were not busy. We walk in and the lady asked if we had a reservation. Wish he would have mentioned that but anyway, we were sat right away. Our server took quite a while to come over. When she did, she was very nice. We started with Kirin beers that were ice cold. He ordered some fancy eel roll. I had a piece but I am not a fan of eel. It did seem well put together. My JB roll was the best one I ever had. Truly delicious and fresh. We also ordered Mongolian beef. This was really delicious and not overly salted. I was surprised the portion wasn't bigger for a $25 price. Still, very tasty. The side dish of brown rice came about 10 minutes after the dish arrived. This was a bit annoying. We ordered the fried rice with chicken and shrimp later on. When it arrived, I thought it didn't look great. That all changed when I tasted it. The flavors here for the hot food items are very authentic. This dish doesn't seem to photograph well either but let me tell you, it is awesome! There are big tasty shrimps in there, maybe 6 of them. They don't even really show up here. The chicken is also fantastic. This is an excellent restaurant I want to go back to soon.
