The BEST Asian place I have ever eaten at. Clean, friendly, cozy, and absolutely delicious. The first place I’ve actually eaten sushi and enjoyed it! 10/10 will have to come back again

Honestly from other reviews I had high hopes. We happened to be in this area of Texas and instead of going 40 minutes to our normal spot decided to try out this one. The restaurant smells like its waste traps are full and you're hit with the smell as soon as you enter. That should have been our clue to leave but we didn't take it. The menu is huge and everything is very over priced compared to other ramen places. Our sushi came out and was huge, was not eatable in less than 2/3 bites which is not normal and very disappointing. The ramen came out in a beautiful presentation but the noodles inside all stuck together and were on the crunchy side which I've never actually ran into in a ramen restaurant. The plus sides would be the food came out hot. The servers were nice, the bathrooms had no changing tables which seems silly considering you supply highchairs and kids chop sticks but can't have a simple changing spot for babies/toddlers. I would not recommend this place and will not be returning (not that most businesses care anymore). Just looking around it seems like it needs a total overhaul and some love put it.

I ordered the Garlic-based ramen, and it was delicious! The broth was so flavorful, and the toppings were arranged beautifully. The other meals looked delicious as well. The service was wonderful, and the restaurant was very nicely decorated inside. It is also a very easy walk from EVO. I will definitely return!

Had the tornado roll, California dream roll, and volcano roll. All were superb! Clean tables and bathrooms and the wait staff was very friendly. Excellent!!

This place was incredibly disappointing, and actually starts as soon as you walk in the door. I have been to many sushi places, but when you enter, the smell is quite indescribable, and can only surmise that the fish they are serving is not fresh. The quality of the food is truly sub par, but you wouldn't think that, when they have rolls priced at $24+. When we got one of the rolls, I was surprised to see what a mess it came out -- topped with what I would think be inside the roll just dumped out as stew. I've mentioned to our server that the taste was off, all he did was nodded and left. The scallops had a fishy taste. I cannot recommend this place at all, it is honestly the worst sushi experience I've had and I will be sure to advise anyone not to go there.

My husband took me here for our date night because I love Japanese cuisine. Our server was kind and attentive. Our food was Amazing! They have hefty portion sizes so be prepared to take food home. The flavor and seasoning is delicious. I also like the location. We enjoyed ourselves and will return!

Ordered fried oyster and shoyu ramen. Very close to authentic Japanese food. Great service and ambience. The price is higher but understandable due to the location. Enjoyed the dining experience on Saturday evening.

Mayson refused to bring hot water, pretending the restaurant did not have any. Samantha brought me hot water and was a good server. There was one misunderstanding, and she thought I didn't want to order sushi when I said I did, but she brought it quickly after being reminded. The Kuro Ramen was way too salty. The onion in the tempura apartizer still had the skin, which is not even edible! The seafood Ramen was delicious. The apple roll is not that good, very light and is overpriced. You get $15 value for $24 roll.

I has the fried chicken rice bowl which was packed full! The sauce was delicious! The potstickers were great. Very attentive staff.

Overall pretty good. We had sushi and ramen. Both were pretty spicy but sort of what you'd expect in a restaurant in Southlake but nonetheless be prepared to spend some money. The sushi was pretty good and tasted very fresh and healthy. The ramen was really good but a bit on the salty side but nonetheless had good overall flavor.Customer service was really great though and the staff were super friendly and fun. We had a couple of sake bombs as well and they were very generous with the pours so that was nice of them as well.Overall, I'd come back again on rare occasions if in the area but probably not my go to place mostly due to the higher price point of sushi and ramen. Price could be also at an influx due to covid though but nonetheless I'd recommend trying it out for a nice date night!
