Fast friendly service. Salmon Teriyaki was delicious, cooked perfectly. The overall indoor vibe was nice- good music and cute decor. Love this place!

Great customer service & friendly team! Everything I had was wonderful, too.

This is a cool, hip, Asian fusion place in the downtown area. The parking could be tricky as the road side parking spots are always filled. And the parking lot, right opposite to it is most of the time filled. I parked my car a little far and walked down a block. Do this place have any parking dedicated to the customers? - well, I don’t know that. I stopped to pick some lunch quickly for myself as I was working from home. The place was not too packed and the service was quite fast. I got my spicy honey chicken ( the name was something like that, not much confident!) with a side of friend rice quite fast. The food was very hot and fresh. However, I felt it as to be like glorified Panda Express!! Taste wise it was almost similar. Portion size was even smaller. I haven’t tried their sushi though, and would definitely go back to give it a try.

Staff was friendly and accommodating. I walked in a little bit before they opened and they were happy to take my order early. Food was prepared to order and fresh. Would definitely come back.

This place was amazing. A great date night vibe. You can order at the counter sit down and they will bring the food out to you. The atmosphere was nice and very clean. I would highly recommend if downtown Memphis and wanting some good food.

The food was fantastic. There were four of us who walked here for lunch and we all got different sushi rolls. We all loved them and their ginger salad. When I was asked if I wanted to join and they said STIX, I was all for it. I have been to the one in Hoover, Alabama twice.I was a little surprised at the atmosphere when we walked in as it was not like the Hoover location with the traditional hibachi grills surrounded by a table and chairs. My co-worker pointed out to me on the menu where it said STIX Express. There was one hibachi grill but it was behind the counter. While you don't get the full experience of a traditional hibachi grill/sushi restaurant, you do get the amazing food. Add it to my list of downtown restaurants to frequent for lunch!

*edit* i decided on my own to update my rating. Three stars seems to be an unacceptable rating to some. It doesn't mean it's bad, it just means it wasn't the best fit for me. Also, it doesn't bother me that everything is disposable. I only stated it as an observation, that way anyone who hasn't been here before knows that the they don't have ceramic plates, etc. I think it's handy, if you don't have time to finish your meal or if an emergency comes up, you can just ask for a lid and quickly leave and take your food and forks with you.*We had a sushi burrito, which is just a large, unsliced sushi roll. It's wrapped in soy paper. It was alright. We also had the filet with fried rice and vegetables. The filet was cooked to order but it wasn't very seasoned, everything else was ok. I thought the menu was limited and over-priced. I likely won't be back but it's not due to the service or food. It was good, it just didn't float my boat. All utensils, cups and plates are disposable. The cashier was nice and the lady bussing the tables was very cheerful and friendly. The atmosphere was quiet. They sell mixed drinks and canned alcoholic beverages. The bathrooms were clean, modern and well stocked. They have separate one-toilet bathrooms for men and women. Everything but the toilet is touchless. The decor theme is light-hearted and fun to look at. They also sell cool t-shirts with the eatery theme on it. It's best if you grab a menu right when you walk in and peruse it so that you already know what you want before you follow the dragon and stand in front of the register. There is also public parking right across the street from the restaurant.

Pretty disappointed. My serving size of chicken fried rice was incredibly small for the price.

I’m always satisfied when I visit. The staff is Amazing. And the owner knows you by name.

I moved to Downtown Memphis a few weeks ago, and discovered Stix. My fiancé and were fast fans. But, their to go services are hit and miss. Today, we ordered my usual. Huge chunks of chicken, full of fat, and no crisp what so ever. $30 unfortunately wasted, I didn't get past the third bite. Great food, but the quality lack consistency.
