I blame Google map not the restaurant. Most of the customers ordered pho the evening we were there, but I thought I should try something different, so we had Garlic Butter Wings (really juicy and very buttery); calamari (nice portion, but very greasy) Thai basil mango shrimp salad (my favorite dish of the evening, but it's a small portion and cost $20! ) AP Choe is crispy flat noodle, but againA, the price and the quantity/ quantity, none of them wow me. With 4 dishes plus tips, I spend more than $100!! How?!

The restaurant is classy in all details. Interior, dinnerware, service. All food is carefully crafted and delights the taste buds. Well balanced. We first tried this place when it was very young and I hoped that more would discover it. So glad that many have. It is one of the finer restaurants on the Wasatch Front, not just one of the finer Asian restaurants. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

Excellent dining experience that transports you to your favorite locales in Japan…read more We had a little bit of everything at Chopfuku. Cocktails: we sampled the Kyoto 78, the As Yuzu Wish, the Old Fashioned, and their take on an espresso martini. Appetizers: spicy garlic edamame. It was good, mildly spicy. Sushi etc.: we had a variety of rolls, as well as sashimi. The highlights were the Fuji Mountain roll, the Red Snapper Katsu Roll, the maguro, and the torched salmon sashimi. But it was all delicious and of high quality. Service: our server was helpful in explaining dishes, how to eat them, making recommendations, and being patient with us. Ambience: let the photos other Yelpers have posted speak for themselves.

Little bit of everything, Chinese, sushi and a Thai curry, Japanese bentos and donburi. Service and staff are so welcoming. DoorDash table as soon as you walk in, loaded up with orders.

Even though it's…read morelocated in an abandoned gas station, I thought, I'll try it, dives can be some of the best places. This place wasn't that. Blaaa. The mixed tempura was horrible. The batter tasted like year old baking grease. They have a decent selection of sushi rolls, but the 2 I got sucked. Tiger eye, tasted like the cooking grease mentioned earlier. Barf I got a really spicy roll that was mid, but I'd never order again. I could go on, but I won't. Trust me, hard pass if you like sushi. Probably good if you're a high school kid that has never had sushi before. Sorry small business owner, but I was disappointed. The floors were dirty, none of the tables wiped clean. I hope things turn around.

I got there and they did not have my order! And, there was NOTHING I could do about it! There is no number to call! Catering doesn't work on weekends! The girl at the store tried to help for a few minutes then walked away to help customers in line. But even she didn't have a phone number to call. -was the order never sent To the store? -was it prepared and waiting at another store? -are your employees trained for such mix ups? -did the manager take it home to feed his family?

Overall, this place was a great stop! The service and food were great, and I also enjoyed sitting and eating my lunch inside. Very quiet and calm vibe even with other people around.

It's a family-run restaurant with an open kitchen, so you can see every dish being prepared right in front of you. It doesn't feel like a typical restaurant--it feels like you've been invited into their home. And what truly sets this place apart is the people behind it. The father took the time to walk us through the menu and explain each dish in detail. The mother shared the cultural and historical inspiration behind the plates, connecting the food back to the Philippines in such a meaningful way. Their son served us with professionalism and genuine kindness. You can feel the pride, love, and intention in everything they do. What we ordered: Pork Lumpia with Sweet Chili Sauce - perfectly crispy, fresh, and packed with flavor. Sizzlin' OINK Sisig - served hot with an egg on top... bold, savory, and absolutely addictive. Lechon OINKawali - crispy pork belly done right: crunchy on the outside, tender and juicy inside. Pancit Noodles - THE BEST NOODLES EVER!!!! And for dessert: Banana - Bowlicious - fried plantains tossed in cinnamon sugar, topped with vanilla ice cream and caramel drizzle... the perfect sweet finish. Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the fried sweet plantain banana desert but I have to say that the flavor still lingers in my mouth and my heart! Everything tasted incredibly fresh. The sauces are clearly made from scratch, and the flavors are rich, authentic, and beautifully balanced. And the value? Unbeatable. We ordered appetizers, three main dishes, and two desserts and the bill left me speechless in a good way :) If you're looking for authentic Filipino cuisine with heart, story, and flavor this is the place. Highly recommend. Thank you for an amazing last dinner in Utah! I will absolutely be back.
