I am sooo picky when it comes to see food- I have not eaten it in years but good grief it was delish here, no fish smells no funk. Just fresh and delish and you can’t beat the prices. We will be back !
my chicken fried rice was good as always but the service seemed a little slow tonight. no big deal, i was in no hurry anyways. here is a picture of their fried soft shell crab appetizer. it was very moist and crunchy. its a little over priced i suppose. But where else in lubbock tx can you get Is tempora soft shell crab. overall i was pleased with my visit
My wife and I came to visit from Amarillo and couldn't have found a better place to enjoy dinner! The atmosphere and customer service is amazing. Prices are pretty fair. We were grateful to have Chaemi (Cami) as our waitress. She did a spectacular job! If you get the chance ask for her specifically and you won't go wrong!!
Everything was wonderful! We really had a nice dinner and great service and even better food. There was of course a few areas that could use a slight improvement but overall it was delicious and we will be returning! We were greeted by a hostess that was nice enough, she was on her phone but greeted us promptly. We were sat down in the bartenders section and were waited on within 5 or 10 minutes. Appetizer: We got a Tokyo Maki sushi roll as an appetizer and it was the best sushi roll I’ve ever had! The wasabi is also perfectly balanced. We also had a “house salad” which had such a weird tasting dressing but I couldn’t stop eating it anyway lol. Our entrees: 2 hibachi combination steak & scallops; scallops were cooked to perfection. IMO, The steak could have been taken off the grill a couple minutes sooner and it would have been perfect but it was so good regardless. The veggies could have been left on a little longer but were still great tasting and flavorful. The rice was really good and the sauce under the steak and scallops was delightful! Dessert: If you’re still hungry, you gotta try the tempura cheesecake. It is AMAZING! Our bartender/waitress recommended it for us and I was not disappointed. Thank you for a lovely dinner. This may become a regular spot for us. :))
Had dinner with a party of 5 and a baby on 3/10 around 6pm. We waited only about 5 minutes or so to be seated. Our server, Isaac, did a fantastic job taking care of us, even though it was busy and we had lots of requests! The starfish appetizer was so delicious, the table ordered another one immediately. The mixed drinks were fantastic and the hot sake complimented my sushi wonderfully. The ramen was also outstanding with a rich and bold broth and delicious ramen eggs. Fantastic experience overall. We will be back.
