For a super casual, yummy, local, rice bowl situation Miso is great. The staff had always been…read morefriendly, and the place is always clean. I recently went in for their 9th Anniversary when they were offering any of their bowls for $9. It was pretty busy for dinner, but the staff made short work of the line. They always give heaping portions I can usually get two meals out of them. My favorite is the steak, but I get the tuna sometimes. You can't go wrong.

Got poke bowls to-go with Jaric and I was pleasantly surprised how good the quality was,…read moreconsidering this is in Lacey and what I believe to be a chain restaurant. Really great location! Very quiet as no one was here eating in the minimal seating arrangements that felt a bit tight... it felt awkward for me at first, but staff was so welcoming and personable in their interactions with Jaric and me when we ordered at the front. Service was quick, too, and better than chipotle with their servings. Fish and meats were fresh, which was unexpected on my end for this place. It was such a good surprise. Plenty of parking at the square that this spot is located in. Outside seating arrangements available, too. Made for good leftovers when I went to work the next day.

Super welcoming atmosphere and very spacious inside for dine-in. Super affordable and great portions! The gentleman and lady that works there were so kind, informative, and sweet! They made my experience 10x better! The gentleman answered all the questions me and my husband had. I have some food allergies and I was not sure the house sauce had anything I was allergic to and the gentleman was kind enough to provide me the ingredients list to ensure I could eat it. I ordered The Ha Long Bay (grilled beef) as did my husband. Absolutely fire!

3/5 stars but I would rate 2.5 if I had the option. Although this wasn't the best bahn mi I've had…read morethe flavor profile was decent. I'm disappointed that the French bread barely had any crunch to my sandwich although I saw them "toast" it, it was more warmed up than toasted. Any real Vietnamese bahn mi would pride themselves on homemade bread and this definitely was not homemade. I didn't get the best taste of the pate but instead the mayo has a cilantro twist to its flavor. I don't think I would go out of my way to seek this sandwich out again. I think the boba is a better option here.

Got the poke salad, which made for such yummy leftovers. The poke so smooth and fresh...loved it!…read moreBut, the takoyaki balls were just okay. Did not taste as yummy as I hoped. Smelly kind of, too, when I took a bite? It did not taste fresh :/ staff was very quick with their attentiveness and ensured to provide refills as wanted. Also checked in multiple times without interruptions to conversations of table. Immediate seating at the booths when we opened the door to the restaurant. Great service and no complaints. Lots of booths to sit at to host many guests. I do not remember much about decorations, but I liked that the lighting was bright enough to comfortably read the menu because sushi restaurants tend to be so dim. Plenty of parking as it is at a square plaza with other shops and restaurants. also, my plate had a bit of dirt on it :/ I did not say anything because I ultimately chose to not use it

The lunch sushi with California roll was beautiful to look at. The sushi portions were so fresh…read moretasting, not at all fishy!!! The dipping sauce included with the steamed gyoza was a perfect complement. The tempura prawns and tempura appetizers were accompanied with a nice sauce. The group all enjoyed the appetizers. Along with the California roll and spicy tuna combo this restaurant provides the perfect balance of wasabi and ginger. Most other places serve the smallest portions of each. The service was very good. I recommend this place and will come back!!! Came back and this time had the California and spicy tuna roll. It was delicious and again plenty of wasabi. One other person at the table had the spicy seafood noodle soup. He was warned about the heat and sure enough he was sweating profusely. Definitely HOT, but again he loved it. The last person who had asked to come back here, no demanded it, loves her Shrimp tempura roll. Glad to come back and enjoy!!

So I've lived less than five minutes from this place for 11 years, and somehow it never caught my…read moreeye. Then I saw their TikTok last night, and let me tell you, that video had me craving it instantly. The scrumptiousness was living rent free in my brain all night, so today my son and I had to stop in and see what the hype was about. We ordered the Sour Diesel, the Fire, and the Afgoo, all on their toasted jalapeño cheese bread. First of all, the female employee who helped us was so friendly and welcoming. We do not eat out much, so we were genuinely excited and maybe a little impatient to try them. When they handed us the sandwiches, I immediately noticed how heavy they were. And the smell in the car on the way home, oh my goodness. Pure torture waiting to unwrap them. Then we got home and opened them up, and I was honestly shocked in the best way. There was actually a MEAL on that bread. Not one of those sad sandwiches that's 80 percent lettuce and air. These were loaded. My teenage son even commented on how good his was, and trust me, teen approval is not handed out lightly. The portions were generous, the flavors were bold, and each sandwich was totally unique and delicious. I can confidently say I have found a new favorite sub spot. Total hidden gem if you love a good sandwich that actually fills you up and tastes incredible. I did not grab a shake this time because it was freezing outside, but after seeing all the flavor options on the menu, I will absolutely be trying one next visit. Highly recommend in every aspect. I love when you try somewhere new and it completely exceeds expectations. This one is a must try.

I've been hearing about Yummy Panda since it opened, and finally got around to trying it. I just…read moregot some house lo mein to go, but the interior is clean and bright, with a few small tables and even a giant Guess Who? game for the young and young at heart. The lo mein was fully loaded with juicy shrimp, chicken, and beef. The noodles were springy and perfect, the veggies were crisp, and it was the best lo mein I've had in the area, and I think I've tried them all. The menu in the store has an "authentic" section, so next time I'll get some things from there as well as the Americanized stuff. Service was polite, friendly, and prompt, and my takeout was neatly packed and had a fork, napkin, fortune cookie, and soy sauce in the bag. I ordered at the counter and then went next door to the Sensory Toolhouse for a few minutes, so I'm not sure how long it took, but less than ten minutes. Can't wait to go back!

We'd heard a lot of good things about Yummy Panda, so we decided to order takeout. We ordered crab…read morerangoon, two egg rolls, a sesame chicken dinner, and a side of rice. Unfortunately, no sweet and sour sauce was included with our order. There wasn't an option to request it when ordering, and it wasn't listed as a side. I've never been to a Chinese restaurant that didn't include sweet and sour sauce with crab rangoon and egg rolls. Without it, both were very dry and ended up being difficult to eat, which made nearly half of our order very disappointing. The sesame chicken was the highlight. I liked that it was only lightly breaded, if at all, and the flavor was good. Overall, it was a letdown. We rarely order takeout and based on this experience, I don't think we'll be ordering from here again.
