Well had the hot and sour soup and ginger chicken again. Little to no ginger in it and the chicken was plentiful but I wished for more veggies. And flavor.. the hot and sour soup was full of tofu but it looks as though they combined it with egg drop and had a bitter flavor to it. I probably will eat the tofu and throw the rest out. I did go at 2pm for take out but that should not really matter. Kinda disappointed actually. read more

Crystal Lake do not sleep on Tasty Bistro!! I had Sunday funday lunch with my brother today so I left downtown for the car northwest burbs. What a delightful building, extremely clean interior, fun design, and amazing sushi! I had such a great time in a relaxed inviting atmosphere and was impressed with our rolls. The gyoza and crab Rangoon were amazing! Thank you for being amazing hosts today, I had the best time. read more

Tasty Bistro offers reasonably priced weekday lunch combos from either it's Japanese, it's Chinese, or it's Thai menus. The lunch combos include a soup (miso, hot & sour, clear broth, or egg-drop), a small side salad, a main course, and a bowl of rice. There is also a new ALL YOU CAN EAT SUSHI option for $28, Dine in Only. Included Soda Drink or Hot Tea. Monday to Thursday 11AM - 9PM Friday to Saturday 11AM - 10PM Sunday 12PM - 8.30PM The problem that I have have with this restaurant is that it is just NOT VERY GOOD. It is OKAY for sure, especially for the Locals Folk who don't know better. But I have traveled the world, and eaten on some memorable 'hole-in-the-wall' place, even in Los Angeles - and if I compare this place to them there is no challenge. BUT - f you want some decent Asian Food in Crystal Lake, especially Sushi - THIS MAY BE YOUR BEST CHOICE. read more

Took my wife out for lunch today and Sushi was on the horizon. First time here and greeted immediately and also sat as it was slow at the time we arrived. Our server was ok and seemed rush with explaining the all you can eat sushi....both my wife and I got since you can't share? We were not asked about drinks or anything like that just served water. Sushi was good but wish it was easier to see what came raw and what came cooked. I got the Godzilla roll, and Mexican roll came Raw? Overall ok and will try other places with my wife. read more

This place is WILD inside decor wise. Never seen anything quite like it. Service took a little longer than expected and everything came out at once which our server apologized about. Food was good. Ramen portions were huge! read more

We went there with a party of 3 adults and 3 children for a late lunch for the first time. Very amazing place. The menu is huge with many sushi options, Chinese and Thai food. Very pleasant ambience, great service and extremely reasonable prices. LOVE THIS PLACE ! Will be back again! read more

We came in for lunch and the food was sooo good. The portions were huge. The price was super reasonable. The staff was really friendly. We have now order lunch from here a few times and each time it was great. Yes- you need to come in and try this place. The atmosphere was a little wonky. You can tell it's been a few different restaurants and it's a little hodgepodge, but the food is top-notch. read more

So we went for the all you can eat sushi dinner. Oh my God it was so good I did not realize how big the sushi rolls would be. We each ordered our own sushi. I ordered Superman and the sweetheart roll. They were huge. She ordered a few of the regular rolls and hers were much more manageable in size we got seaweed salad, ginger, salad, Gyoza and crab Rangoon. I will say those rolls were so good they were fun. They came in a pink paper I have to complement the staff services was great. Food is great. The only one thing I did not like was the crab Rangoon it was like made with sugar so the whole filling was this sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet Cream cheese paste but other than that everything was fabulous and some people next to us got one of the flaming rolls so it's kind of fun to watch. I definitely would go back and try that definitely will be back. This restaurant was fun. Food is fabulous. Service was great definitely place y'all need to try read more

I normally come to this restaurant and the food is always good the service is great. But recently came and the food was bad the sushi had stale crumbs inside of it. The pad Thai was so sweet and way too much sauce when I informed my waiter. He said "there is nothing I can do." he couldn't give a solution or do good customer service. I do absolutely love this restaurant, but this isn't the only bad experience I've had. read more

I ordered a Mongolian beef for takeout. It was too salty and too saucy. The portion was a good size but the pieces of beef were not great quality. Maybe I just didn't like their style or my expectations are too high. I'm used to much better Chinese cuisine in Chicago, LA, and NY. read more

Nice large parking lot. The decor is interesting with colored water filled cylinders throughout. The lighting was a little bright for my taste. The restaurant was very clean and service was friendly. I enjoyed the edamame, tuna appetizer and spicy tuna roll. I also ordered the volcano roll which had a fishy taste. I wouldn't order that in future. read more

Sushi and orange chicken were good! Although they weren't very busy the orders did take a bit longer than expected to come to table. After eating some sushi we ordered more as is common in sushi restaurants and the next order took even longer. Wait staff were friendly though and decorations were interesting and fun! read more

Enter a crazy colorful world unlike anything in Crystal Lake. Wild furniture, cool bar. Fun. Server came by for drinks. We had edamame app. I had the Seafood tempura -- a huge portion done perfectly. She had the Spicy Basil Shrimp, and enjoyed it. We took leftovers home. Great service and a nice dinner out with friends. Definitely will go back. read more

An overall strange arrangement but the food was above my expectations and affordable. The menu is wildly large. The branding is where it could be considered not as great. Overall: 4/5. Branding: TastyBistro with the octopus logo. 1/5 Bad. It screams outlet mall cheap. It doesn't match the ambiance, food quality or decor. Yikes. Interior Decor: 4/5 Nice. Sat in the seating area. The interior is colorful, has that Asian style with lots of color, LED posts that slowly change color, neat looking lamps. Some may think it's too much, kids will enjoy it. Sushi/liquor Bar from a distance looked nice. Service: ?? excellent but it was very slow when we arrived. So not tested. Food: 4.5/5 Good, some delicious. Meal included 1) Margarita 1) ginger salad 1) avocado salad 1) Miso Soup 1) adamame 1) Golden Dragon Role 1) Tonkontsu Ramen (Udon) with beef $65 including tip. Not bad for sushi, ramen, salads, soup and a drink in this cost go up time. Salads - ginger dressing was tasty. Iceberg lettuce which is expected, a lot of Avocado in the avocado salad. Very Large portion. 4/5 Miso Soup - simple, cheap. 4/5 Golden Dragon Role - 5/5 Delicious. Has gold leaf (this isn't necessary but adds a peculiar expensive touch). Ramen (actually went Udon) - 5/5 delicious. thick pork flavored broth. A lot of authentic ingredients. Beef was thin steak cooked to a medium with alittle char which is so much better then the sometimes thin overcooked rubber steak slices. Overall: 4/5 Bad branding, giant menu, alot of seating, interesting atmosphere, overall impressed with food. It's worth trying since the food outshines it all. read more

This is a great new restaurant my family and I came to eat dinner on a weeknight. The inside is colorful, clean, and nicely decorated. There's a good amount of parking in the back as well. The staff was friendly and the food came out quickly. Edamame was a free appetizer. The food we ordered had large portions and we all enjoyed our entrees. I was especially happy to have a large portion of eel (12 pieces) with my Eel Don entree and which also had a fun addition of dry ice in a shot glass to have a nice mist over my meal. We will definitely be back! read more

I'll start off by saying that I miss the old decor and ambience of when this was the Supper Club. It is very Vegas like inside... with that said, the service was good and the food was ok. The hibachi portions are huge but so is the plate! So large that we had trouble fitting two on the table. We also had a fire dragon roll that the server lit up when he brought it to the table. It stays lit for a very long time so make sure you blow it out before attempting to grab a roll. The roll was AMAZING. I had chicken pad thai and it was... ok. I prefer it spicier but it doesn't come with spice level options. read more

I love their Avocado salad. The food is very fresh and flavours are good. The place is always sneaky clean. Service is very prompt. read more

This place is actually pretty cool. My family love sushi but I do not. It's rare that we can find a "sushi" place that has anything decent on the menu for a non seafood eater. They actually have a great standard Chinese food menu as well with a lot of great on it. The wait staff is always friendly and service is on par. You have to give this place a try if you are in the area. read more

Unfortunately, I didn't take any pictures at this restaurant, but I can assure you that the food and service were both great restaurant and restrooms were very clean. On our next visit will definitely take pictures and share our updated experience. Will definitely be back. read more

Picked this place because of the high reviews. Wasn't disappointed! Went for lunch. Had the sushi and sashimi lunch combo. Fish was nice and cold and thick cut pieces. Came with choice of salad or miso. Great amount of food for the price. Highly recommend. They also offer AYCE so I'll definitely be back for dinner! Highly recommended! read more

The food tasted great! The fire dragon roll that they light on fire was weird tasting with the cheese they use but everything was super pretty to look at. They have great presentation here and great sushi. I definetly want to come back to try some of their other meals. Cool and fun atmosphere. Our server was some sort of Chinese/Japenese, I could barely understand her but I don't mind. Had a great time read more

I will break it down by category. Food- Tasty! Great portions! But beware the next day effect! I ordered orange beef and lo mein, my mouth was happy but my stomach? Not so much!! I read on another review that people also reacted, I ignored that review to try for myself. I shouldn't have ignore that review! Service- Very friendly people! Great service! Ambiance - you will experience a little bit of everything! The tile work is very moroccan style, curtains were Renaissance, lighting was modern! Adding little pumpkins made it country. Would I go back? Probably not. read more

Food is fantastic, everything comes out freshly prepared and quickly. The service is prompt and very friendly. We came in on a Monday evening so it was pretty quiet but the place gets hopping on the weekends. The decor is very interesting and kitschy. A place I would take my family. The AYCE meal is an absolute great value! I'm usually full after a couple of appetizers and a roll but you can literally have every roll from the menu. Just make sure you don't leave anything behind or you'll get charged. Come for the Angel Roll, it's truly yummy read more

I only tried ayce menu so I give that two stars not the rest of the restuarant yet Yikes. let me clear the air when you take a look at the building decor you may have extremely high expectations. The building is absolutly beautiful! And very luxurious looking you will expect top notch and luxerious Its not, Im not a fan of the sushi, the food was inconsistent and um just not fot me. I may go back and try the other japanese chinese cuisine but I will not go for sushi. I had ayce the all you can eat. The soup was watery, the ragoons were not very good, rolls were sloppy ,the pate rolls had fish chunks, and the fish over rice either had to much or to little rice. Now if they said we have a new chef practicing rolls etc with your meal I wouldve said sure but can I have a small discount? Thats happened before at other establishments and I have no issue with it. But to have an expectation of well prepared food and to get what I got was little appaling Ive heard people say well maybe its because you got ayce. No! I have never been to a place where the ayce is not as good as their non ayce roll and pieces. And if thats the case its an even bigger reason not to go there. Because its a rip off. I hope their specialty lies somewhere else. Im hoping its in the ramen or hibachi. It would be excellent to find a place that has great ramen and hibachi in the same place in the area. Im hoping next time when I go and dont order from the sushi menu that the food is fabulous! And I can give it more stars I had high hopes for this place. Not giving up on them yet! read more

I love to try new Asian restaurants and I was in the area and found this spot so I thought, why not! I had ordered veggie fried rice, tofu and veggie udon, and a roll. My daughter and I had our dinner it was ok but, later that night we both had horrible diarrhea that lasted all night and into today. I called the restaurant, they apologized and rectified the situation. Needless to say, I will not be going back there. Ugh! read more

Very good food, hate that we can't find good Asian food up in this area. We moved from Chicago, where great restaurants are everywhere. But this place was fantastic, and we will definitely be back!! read more

If you're looking for an incredible meal, look elsewhere. if you're looking for something ok, look elsewhere. If you're looking for something that tastes like week old badger meat, you're in the right place. I ordered three things -- fried rice, teriyaki beef, and the green onions wrapped in beef app (don't remember the name). It was all awful. I may just be a snob, but damn... that was a bad experience. read more

We had 2 hibachi dinners, one chicken and 1 scallop. The quantity of food was huge! Scallops were done perfectly. Chicken was good, but over-peppered, as were the veggies. Still good, but to the chef...just ease up on the pepper a bit and it will be great! The decorating is kitschy, blingy, and fully entertaining. They have so many types of Asian cuisine here...can't wait to try them all! read more

This restaurant is fantastic. I love going here every week and enjoying the delicious food and fantastic service. I would highly recommend.

We went to celebrate our 31st anniversary. My husband started with their cherry blossom martini, it was very good. I had the best Mai Tai I've ever had. We got fried pot stickers which were very good. Husband got the Tonkatsu ramen. I've never seen someone have an out of body experience eating. He could barely talk! Needless to say he loved it. I got the seafood tempura, loved it. Best tempura I've had. We also ordered the tropical fried rice, which we got, knowing we'd have to take it home as it was so much food already. So flavorful! We'll order it again. This restaurant is a gem. Food is excellent. Service was great too. I will be back and will bring family and friends. read more

What a great place. A relaxing atmosphere great food and exceptional service. When we crave sushi tasty bistro is the only place for us. Even if your out of the area definitely worth the trip.
