Hiro 88

While I absolutely loved the service and food. I don’t think you really get your bang for your buck. Very small portions. I spent $79 before a cash rip of 25% 6 tiny pieces for each sushi roll. Appetizers were the best I’ve had! At least the crab Rangoon! I would eat here again. But maybe once I’m rich.

To start with positives, the cooked sushi was decent and the waiter was lovely. I would say the sashimi platter was disappointing especially if we at paying a lot for a plate. Sashimi slices should not be this thick. It was like biting into a steak. They weren’t cut properly too displayed in the photo. Also, the texture was way too slimy as I seemed to not be fresh. It wasn’t prepared properly either as in the photo I had to spit out a piece after I found a fish scale in one of the pieces.

My wife and I came down from Sioux City, IA, to Omaha to celebrate her birthday weekend. We ate here for lunch on a Sunday. The atmosphere at this restaurant is fun but yet relaxed, and the service was great also. We both got the hot and sour soup and 3-item bento boxes. Mine had salmon sashimi (top left), steamed rice (top right), spicy tuna roll (bottom left), and California roll (bottom right). My wife's had sweet chili crab roll (top left), edamame (top right), steamed rice (bottom left), and spicy California roll (bottom right). It was all very tasty and filling. If you want to feel happy and full, definitely eat here!

We had a great time at Hiro 88. We went at around 8:45pm on Sunday evening. All day happy hour on Sundays. Large selection of apps and sushi. Started with the Korean short ribs which were fantastic will order every time we go moving forward. Ate them too fast to get a picture unfortunately. My wife got a cosmo that she said was very good. We had 5 different sushi rolls we enjoyed them all. With happy hour pricing got outta there for right at $50 before tip. Great deal on Sunday. The service was very friendly and attentive.

Hiro has gone down hill- sushi was underwhelming and quite flavorless. The rolls were virtually all rice with barely any fish. We ordered the cinco de mayo roll and it was flavorless; spicy tuna and spicy salmon rolls were middle of the road. Glad we hit it on a happy hour but understand why it was empty.
