My favorite was the Fire Dragon Roll--the baked flavor was amazing, and it quickly became my top pick. The Fire Phoenix Roll was also very tasty and worth trying. The only downside was the first impression. Unfortunately, the manager at the reception didn't seem very friendly or welcoming. It's a little disappointing when your dining experience starts with that kind of mood, especially since the food and the restaurant itself are so enjoyable. Overall, I would definitely come back for the delicious sushi and the lovely atmosphere. I just hope the customer service at the front becomes as warm as the food they serve.

This ended up being one of the best quality sushi places in the area. All the fish was top drawer quality and everything tasted spot on. The only things I think could be improved upon would be the wasabi as it was a bit flat and needed to be stronger as well as the calamari as it was a bit stringy. Everything had an excellent taste and was presented very nicely. Service was excellent and we would consider this a "go to" place if you want excellent quality sushi with an abundance of variety!

Just like many of the other reviews, this place was surprisingly good! At first glance, you might…read morethink it's just another fast-food Japanese restaurant. The ambiance isn't fancy, and the service is exactly what you'd expect from a casual counter-service spot where you order first and then find a seat. We ordered the family meal, which is advertised to serve four people. While everything was a bit on the pricey side, the portions were generous. There were eight of us, and we still had plenty of leftovers to take home. Every dish we tried was packed with flavor. One thing I really appreciated was that each item had its own distinct taste. Sometimes when multiple dishes are served at once, they all start to taste similar--but that definitely wasn't the case here. Even the simple side salad was delicious, especially with their house dressing. I was so caught up enjoying the conversation that I completely forgot to take photos! We ordered the family meal, which included chicken teriyaki, beef teriyaki, spicy pork, and katsu (we tried both the chicken and pork). It also came with white rice and salad, with the option to upgrade to fried rice for an additional $12. We left with happy, full stomachs and plenty of leftovers. The only downside? Our wallets were a little less happy. It was a great meal, but lunch for a large group added up quickly. Still, if you're looking for flavorful Japanese comfort food with generous portions, this place is definitely worth trying.

It's just a bunch of booths and tables and could probably use a bit more lighting. The service was great - very attentive server and filled our water each time it was needed The food was OK. Not much variety - mostly rolls. Other places may offer appetizer dishes but this one I could eat three rolls and I was done. Is it worth the price? Depends on which rolls you order. Not sure if I would visit this place again since there are other similar all you can eat sushi places and this one does not particularly stand out.

While dinner is a bit pricey at $28.99, it's definitely worth it if you plan on ordering more than a couple of rolls and an appetizer. The service has always been excellent. The staff is friendly and attentive, the food comes out quickly, and the restaurant is consistently clean. One small detail I appreciate is that the water tastes great, which might sound strange, but I've noticed that some Asian restaurants have water with an off taste. I'm not very picky when it comes to sushi rolls, but some of my favorites here are the Spicy Salmon Roll, Spicy Tuna Roll, Fire Dragon Roll, and Pretty Girl Roll. I clearly have a weakness for spicy rolls and anything with jalapeños! Generally, the ingredients always taste fresh, and the rolls are well-balanced with the perfect ratio of rice to fillings. I've also tried the gyoza, the cream cheese rangoons, and the fried scallops. All were delicious, although I personally prefer rangoons that include crab. I also wish both the gyoza and rangoons had a bit more filling inside. The scallops are AMAZING, though, and easily my favorite appetizer I've tried here. Overall, this is a great spot for fresh sushi, friendly service, and a great AYCE experience.

My partner got the miso udon and it was also overly salted. Whoever is cooking i hate to say this but its just not good and not being made the way it is in the original ramen house.

They offer five different omakase sets, each with a great variety of the chef's signature appetizers and nigiri pieces. Everything we had was incredibly fresh, and you could really taste the quality of the fish. The balance of flavors was spot on, and every piece was thoughtfully seasoned. You honestly don't need soy sauce because each bite is meant to be enjoyed exactly as it's served. I'm already looking forward to coming back to try their premium maki rolls and hand rolls. This is definitely a spot I'll be adding to my regular rotation.

For starters, the vibe feels casual and relaxed here and the drinks are expertly shaken and potent. Our server was wonderfully attentive, helpful and fun, despite being the bar tender that night too. I had the rangoon roll and teriyaki pork tacos. Everything tasted great; perfect presentation, temperatures, and spices to make this a meal worth returning for. I have tried the filet mignon hot rock in the past and it is a fun app to try, at least once. Our only complaint is the walk (Or elevator ride) upstairs to the restrooms. I wish there was one on the first floor. (Admittedly, it is not as easy to navigate after 2 martinis) ha! I will be back for Happy Hour some time, from 3 to 5.

Menus arrived as we were seated, water arrived shortly after, but no greeting, no server, nothing. Another couple came in after us, got seated, greeted, ordered, and were eating while we still sat completely unacknowledged. After 15 minutes we told the host we were giving up. She looked surprised we hadn't been helped, even though our table was less than 15 feet from the host stand and directly in her line of sight. Most of the time she was lingering near the bar chatting with other employees. No apology -- just 'I'll get a manager.' Several minutes later the manager arrived. We explained what happened, but again no apology, no offer to fix it, no 'please stay, we'll take care of you.' Just 'that shouldn't have happened' and she'd talk to her staff. That's the corporate version of shrugging. We'd trekked a long way from the city only to be let down by basic service not happening at all. This is the kind of failure people don't expect from a group as large and well‑trained as Lettuce, and at this point I'm wondering if I should lower my expectations.
