    Pink Lady Roll and Salmon Sashimi

    One of the best spot in Westborough! The restaurant look cozy and offers such good sushi and the service was great. COVID has limited the amount of people entering the restaurant but the restaurant is big enough to hold decent people or a group of 10. The location is great too with big parking lots and inside a golf center.

    We only come here for Japanese flat top grill experience. Reviews here are rather poor and maybe that's why out expectation was low but it wasn't bad at all for a neighborhood Japanese grill house. We only ordered two entrees for grills. We visited here three times and it is just never so busy for the grill. I see some people at the bar all the time but not for grill. But still they always come out for two people and do their small show (egg spinning and onion volcano if you know what I mean..). Not terrific but it's okay. Food is very standard. Nothing amazing but what average neighborhood Japanese flat top. You always get a couple shrimps no matter what you order and you have to pat $2 extra for fried rice which is worth it. Their portion is very generous but their seasoning is a bit strong. If you don't like too much soy sauce saltiness, just ask for light salt for your fried rice. Their sauce could improve (ginger and mustard). Usually you get some type of creamy sauce for seafood but not here. I would give 3.5 out of 5 here. Don't expect Michellin quality flat top, then you would be fine.

    Great dinner tonight with sushi salmon avocado roll and curry chicken.

    Eat at the bar with all local folks enjoying the Red Sox game - we love the chicken lettuce wraps and sushi. They used to have all you can eat sushi but I think my son eat so much they had to discontinue it :) The family owned business makes you feel right at home! The Hibachi is fun if you have a big group. Overall, the place is great. Insider tip: the Salmon avocado is to die for (the salmon is smooth like butter), as well as all the other types of sushi. They are all so artistically presented and are just as yummy. You have all the staples that you find in your average Asian bistro, but the flavor is anything but ordinary. It is some of the best food I have had

    Filet mignon with fried rice and veggies hibachi
    Sharon Z.

    Still trying to find a good hibachi place nearby but this is not it. We decided to sit at a table and order Hibachi from the menu, with a $20 for $40 Groupon with the restriction to order from only the dinner menu (roughly $10 more pricier than lunch / hibachi meal), it pretty much evens out to no discount. The food is fair, less salty and greasy than most places which is a plus, but the dinner meat portion - which we were told is more than lunch, is still quite a bit smaller than we expected. And my aged NY strip was definitely definitely not medium rare as requested (it's more like medium-well done). They do also have a sushi menu and the option for sushi buffet available. The wait staff is generally lackluster and even though the venue is very nice but lacks the vibrant experience that usually associates with Hibachi.

    I had never been and saw that they were on restaurant.com so I picked up a $25.00 certificate for Hibachi. When we arrived there were three hibachi stations with people at them already. We told the host we wanted Hibachi and he responded that it could be a while and did we want to sit at the bar or come back. I asked why it would be a while since there are 6 stations and he indicated that they had only a single cook working. We decided to sit at the table and wait. The first thing I noticed was that the table was sticky and clearly had not been well cleaned. Before I could say anything the host asked us if we would move to a different table large enough to accommodate us and another group that just arrived and also wanted hibachi. We watched as the chef cooked the meals of the other two tables and the staff seemed to be running around frantically trying to keep up. It appears that they need to work on their staffing levels. After what seemed like forever our turn came. I ordered the Filet Mignon and Shrimp. The cook was very skilled at both cooking and entertaining us while he cooked. He did the usual onion volcano and really put on a show with the knives. The meal its self was great the fried rice was light and tasty and the filet mignon was cooked perfectly. The vegetables were tender and fresh and the noodles were tasty but I could have gone without them. It was a lot of food and I definitely found that I overate. We did discover however that those that ordered the white rice instead of the fried rice never received their rice. Again I attribute this to the poor staffing levels. When the bill came everything matched up but they charged me for 2 soda's instead of 1. I thought that was a bit tacky to charge for a refill given the long wait because of their staffing snafu. Would I return? Yes but I wouldn't rush back.

    Hibachi!

    This is a great place for a solid hibachi meal. They don't do all the fancy tricks at the table like other places which is refreshing. Everything is flavorful and delicious. Not very crowded if you arrive early. Recommended!

    Best Sushi...Westboro Road. Looks beautiful Too!  Go order some. Tenka Westborough
    Donna O.

    Tenka has the best Chinese Food of any Chinese Restaurant that I've ever been to. Kevin is the owner, he and his wife are by far the best hosts you could ever want. They make everyone feel warm and welcomed. I don't know how Kevin does it, but he remembers everyone's name, even if he's only met you once. If you want fresh food, this is the place to go. Monday night we popped in for a little something and Kevin whipped up some Sushi that was just out of this world. So go check it out, you won't be disappointed.

I…read moresat at the sushi bar and ordered some sushi and my favorite dish of spicy Kung Pao Chicken with peanuts. I always love their Kung Pao Chicken... Their sushi and sashimi were both really fresh and delicious. I was impressed by the quality of the sushi. I'll probably be back to try some more.... The atmosphere was really nice. It's a nice place to take a date or go with your family. The service was friendly and prompt. This continues to be one of my favorite Asian restaurants in the area....

    Tastefully decorated, it's dateworthy as well as lunchworthy. They no longer have their buffet,…read morewhich was among the better ones in its day. Now back in the area, I've had two recent combos at lunchtime in a near-empty dining room. -- Hot and Sour Soup (n lunch combos): Sufficiently hot from pepper and lightly sour, with still-slightly-crunchy vegetation including a few kinds of mushrooms. Tasty broth that tastes slightly meaty. The best part of both meals. -- Sweet and Sour Chicken (on a lunch combo): Only slightly crispy and VERY slight amount of chicken within each piece. We often talk about chicken-to-batter ratio; this serving had the lowest I've ever had-- which I'd expect at a rough and tumble over-the-counter joint with pictures of the food on the walls, but not here. Thin, sweet sauce with a few cherries, stems intact. Aiight. -- General Gao's Chicken (on a lunch combo): Orange nuggets, well coated with a mildly sweet sauce, no heat, and no contrast to the texture or sweet flavor. Not crisp. Smallish pieces, decent quantity, but not tender or juicy. Reminiscent of a frozen product if not one in actuality. -- Pork Fried Rice (had with the Sweet and Sour): Midrange in color, lighter in flavor, closer to Rice-a-Roni, with onions, peas, and mini pork cubes. -- White Rice (had with the Genera): Fresh, solid, no issues. Service was minimalist on both recent visits. On one, the server was in the kitchen the whole time. On the other, the server walked away while I was in mid-sentence-- twice. At $16 - $17 with no appetizer, a bit much for a lunch combo, which should have some value. I also don't see the quality I used to encounter here years ago. Although the Chinese joint across the street isn't much better, there are many dining options in the area, so I don't forsee a return. Note: This isn't a referendum on authenticity or style. I like every Chinese style and every degree of authenticity as long as the food is good within that breed. This one isn't, but that's just me. Dateworthy, yes. But please-- take her someplace else.

    I've been ordering Chinese food for probably 20 years, and I honestly can't remember the last time…read moreI was this impressed--not only by the food, but by the entire experience from the moment I placed the order. The woman who took my order was incredibly attentive. She asked all the right questions, made sure I was ordering from the correct Chengdu location, asked how many plates and forks I needed, and made the whole pickup process incredibly easy. She even called me back to make sure I was waiting in the right place, and then brought the food directly to the window of my car. That level of attention to detail is rare these days. Then I opened the bag--and WOW. The smell alone was probably the best aroma I've experienced opening a Chinese takeout order in a very long time. And thankfully, the taste absolutely lived up to it. Even the presentation impressed me. Everything came in a nice reusable Chengdu bag, the containers were properly sealed, nothing leaked or dripped, and the food looked as good as it smelled. You could tell there was thought and care put into the entire order, not just the cooking. I had seen the roughly 3-star Yelp rating before ordering, so I really wasn't expecting this. Based on my experience tonight, I genuinely don't understand the low rating. Of course, I'll have to come back and try more of the menu before I can speak to everything, but IF the woman who helped me tonight is representative of how this restaurant is being run, they deserve some recognition!! Amazing service, amazing aroma, amazing food, and one of the smoothest takeout experiences I've had. I will absolutely be back!

    To be totally honest, living in the area for 5 years we never tried Cheng Due before mainly because…read moreof the low ratings in Yelp. However, last weekend we decided to give it a try because some times we need to give the benefit of the doubt to some places and judge them by ourselves. Well, to our surprise we had a very pleasant first experience at this place. Starting with the ambience, the restaurant has a nice sophisticated and inviting atmosphere. Everything was very clean and organized in an elegant way, which caused a very good first impression. Continuing with the food, there is a variety of options in the menu, mainly Chinese (of course) but also a Japanese section (sushi and other items). We ordered from the Chinese options...For appetizers we ordered the Thai Spring Rolls, the Scallion Pancakes, and the Boneless Ribs, all of them very delicious. The Scallion Pancakes have been the best in terms of texture that we have tried in the area. Our only recommendation would be to add more scallions to the dough so they can taste more to scallion. The flavor of the Boneless Ribs was very tasty and their texture was tender, not chewy as we have tried in other places. The Thai Spring Rolls were interesting, flavor was good as well as the texture. As main entree, we ordered the Orange Crispy Beef and the Sesame Chichen and found both very delicious. The crispy beef was the first time we tried something like that in the area. The amount of sauce that they used in both dishes was not too excessive and the tenderness of both the beef and the chicken was very good. Regarding drinks, we ordered a Piña Colada and a Polynesian cocktail, both with very balanced flavors. The only recommendation for the Piña Colada is to try making it more frozen and not with too many ice cubes. The flavor was pretty similar to an authentic Piña Colada (we are from Puerto Rico, the place where this drink was born and have to admit that the flavor was good); making it more frozen would give the final touch to make it more authentic, in our opinion. The desserts menu was not extensive at all, only one option available which was the fried ice cream. We decided to try it anyway and found it very good. In terms of the service, it was acceptable. Our server did a great job taking the order and not missing any item as well as serving our table on time and accurate. He wasn't smiling all the time, but he was respectful and polite, enough for us. I would say that if you are in the area, you can give it a try. For 5 years we avoided this place, and unless they changed something recently I have to say that we like the experience and are planning to go back. We don't do late dinner regularly, so we went there around 5:30 pm, which we don't know if that could have made any difference in everything.

The food is just barely okay, but I'd say adequate for a quick takeout situation. -- Egg Roll: Crisp, cabbagey, with lesser bits of celery. Surprisingly pink inside, but not sweet.

Bland and hot beats bland and tepid. A good amount of food for a decent price. No rival for better sit-down joints, but I'll take this place over the fast food chains, and it'll be a better value.
