    a food stand in a shopping mall

    ordered a teriyaki plate with fried rice for my daughter and once she was about to eat she found a hair in her plate i tried to be nice about the problem but instead of helping me in a nice way the girl right there in the picture decided to give me attitude and got mad and raised her voice saying the hair was not in there that i needed to show her proof and i was showing her the hair and she still argued with me RUDE i will never go back

    With limited vegan options at the outlets, the ($6.99) Veggie Deluxe Combo--cucumber/avocado roll, two inari, and seaweed salad--makes a decent meal for the plant inclined.

    After two hours of shopping I was exhausted and so hungry and this place was appealing to me , never visited it, the beef and shrimp teriyaki was extremely appealing, I ordered that with extra noodels ( totaled $10 ) and the portion came freakin HUGEE, it was so big and enough for two, the beef and shrimp was decent and the flavors were just right, I can say that they dont welcome you with the best smile but food is good, will be back for sure.

    This food was insanely fresh and delicious. Granted I live in a very small town in Northern California that doesn't have the best food. I'm not a big fan of teriyaki sauce but got the chicken and shrimp teriyaki and I was SO impressed. Food was made fresh to order and it was obvious the vegetables were fresh. The sauce was the best I've ever had. I scarfed my food and so did my cousin who got the same thing. Will definitely come back next time I am in the area.

    Stopped by here because saw they were cooking it fresh, but after getting the food.... It was bland and not very tasty at all. The noodles tasted over cooked and beef was tasteless. Like pieces of rubber.

    It looks as if a child made this.

    I eat quite a lot of sushi and sadly, this does not do Japanese food justice. My mom and I could make sushi better than this, so I was pretty upset with the price. They charge as much as any other sushi place, yet they couldn't deliver. The miso soup was primarily made up of water, the rice of vinegar, and the fish was old. I purchased the salmon lover and the miso soup ... I am utterly disappointed. Especially since I'm rather easy to please. I can eat anything and finish it. Especially sushi. I've never had bad sushi until today. Hire a professional please. Not a noob. Please.

    Food was GARBAGE. As bland as possible. Genuinely wish I would have got my money back. Spring rolls with the duck sauce wasn't bad though.

    Quality & Hospitality are amazing !…read more Service you recieve here is something all resturants should take note of. The staff works amazing together and you never wait long for anything you order. They are all very friendly and willing to complete a request even if it is not their immediate job duty. The sushi selection is very good and while I usually stick to Nigiri when I do the AYCE menu, my husband very much enjoyed their specialty rolls. We loved their half order portions as it allows for us to sample various rolls without commiting to a whole one. The ambiance is nice and bustling but without making it too overwhelming. We really enjoy eating here!

I came in with a party of 4 & as soon as we sat down we sort of told our server our plans for that night and that we had a movie reservation in about 45 min. Justin made our experience worthwhile. He was aware we were in a time crunch so he took our orders & brought them out seamlessly. He was kind, funny, and was able to display a level of hospitality I haven't seen in a long time! The food was delicious and I love coming here for the food, HOWEVER, the service is was really exceeded my expectations this time. Thank you for taking care of us Justin!

    Been here server times and always go with our friends who go there all the time…read more Waiters are nice and service is great. I wonder sometimes if they're nicer cause they know our friends lol. The food is yummy, executed well. We like so many of their sushi rolls! It may be small but they put out good food! Smaller, to me, is very often better.

    A good little Sushi/Ramen hidden gem in Chula Vista. Heard a lot about this place so I finally came…read more& yes I'm a fan. First let me start with the customer service, it was great, from the door to getting seated to the waiters checking on us & the cooks smiling & the speed & quality of the service was all great. And the prices are very reasonable, they don't open till 5 tho, for dinner basically, weekends can get busy so get there early. The food was very good, I got the Chula Vita Ramen & I'd get it again, very filling & flavorful. The sushi was very fresh & good & filling as well, Abre La Boca Mucho was our fav roll, it can be shared with another person for sure, Viva Chula Vista was a good roll too. Miso soup was ok & no garlic edamame they have lemon butter edamame, if you like lemon & butter flavor you'll like it, it was ok but it lack a bit of flavor for me. My fav item here was the Jalapeño Popper as an appetizer, 8 pieces & man let me tell you, it was mouth watering & on point, it's a must to start with. Overall I good little spot & we come again for sure, keep up the good work Naruto & see you soon :)

    Loooooove this place. Introduced several of my friends to this place and they are converts!! The…read moreplace is not that big, with U-shaped bar seating and the servers in the middle which makes for quick and attentive service. When checking in be aware your whole party must be there to be seated and it is likely that you will end up next to another party as there are no separate tables. They have premium meats and know that it is NOT AYCE like some other shabu shabu places, so beware it will be a bit pricy depending on what you choose. You pick a broth, a rice, a noodle, a protein and you get a plate of veggies and sauces. You get an individual pot to mix your food to your liking. It is SO GOOD. I have never had a bad experience here. My go-to order is a mix of the tonktosu and spicy miso broth along with double wagyu shortrib and extra udon noodles. It's rich and filling and the veggies are fresh. I like to sub out certain veggies to get extra of others I like better (like mushrooms). I would eat here every single day if I could. If you don't finish your rice and broth they'll put it in a to-go container for you so you can have your "porridge" later. Drink menu is good too, they have rotating selection of drinks available, as well as sake, wine, and beer on tap.

    Japanese hot pot? Ok…read more Driven by the place many many times and always assumed it was a ramen spot. We decided to give it a try after realizing it was hot pot. We walked in and just one other couple was dining. Happy hour from 5-6. Our waitress immediately explained how the menu worked and gave us cooking tips. I ordered the miso broth with pork and toro. We also had the chuck roll and brisket. The chuck roll and the pork were delicious. Would definitely skip the toro and brisket next time. The veggies they served were all great (mushrooms, emoji, bok choy, carrot, spinach, kabocha squash, with the exception of a bit too much cabbage). The experience can a little a bit of an endeavor if you've never done it solo, as you solely have to pay constant attention to the pot while trying to eat at the same time. It can be hard to hold a conversation when your food is boiling boiling hot! Definitely a laborous experience but a fun one!
