TL;DR: Great food, great prices, great service. FOOD: We had the fried tofu and vegetable gyoza for appetizers and both were perfect. For entrees my husband had the Udon soup and the miso broth was, frankly, phenomenal. I ordered the Fancy Roll was also excellent and the portions were quite large. We also shared a Taro milk tea which was delicious. SERVICE: Upon entering we were greeted and seated immediately. Our waitress was very kind and attentive, and our food was prepared quite quickly. ATMOSPHERE: The dining room is clean, unassuming, and charmingly typical of a hole-in-the-wall restaurant with great food. This isn’t an “upscale” establishment but care has been taken to make it welcoming, with touches of Japanese decor and small vases of silk flowers on each table. The bathroom wa

The food was delicious and we loved the atmosphere with the calm music. We ordered the chicken teriyaki bento box and the beef teriyaki lunch special. Would definitely return

I love this place! The bento boxes are great! Best teriyaki sauce anywhere! Very good sushi. Not fancy but aways consistent. Very nice owners. I get take-out here several times a month.

This is a great place to eat in Richland Pa. Small restaurant. Not a ton of seating. Many people order takeout. The food is amazing 10/10. If your eating in, expect to wait a little bit but totally worth the wait. Best sushi in the area. Many people choose Nyko's but this place puts them to shame both on quality and price! Very highly recommended 👌

Simple yet cute decor (LOVED THE CAT PAINTING). Waitress ran the entire restaurant like the Navy, wonderful woman, you can really tell she’s a passionate and hard-working person. Food was SPECTACULAR!!! I couldn’t even take a picture before I demolished everything (even the soup was MMM MMM MMM DELICIOUS). The Taro milk tea was amazing as well! :) I only come back to this town to visit my family and this will 100% be a place I suggest we eat at again.
