I moved to the area a couple of months ago and am so excited to have discovered this restaurant so close to me. I have ordered take out many times at this point, although the restaurant is lovely with a cozy ambiance. I will eat there someday! The staff are very friendly.They have affordable lunch and combination specials with everything you could want - rice, soup, salad, fried goodness, broccoli, and the dinners come with a sliced orange. I am addicted to their white rice. The shrimp tempura and katsu are not overly condimented and taste fresh, and are always perfectly crispy. The green mussels were a generous serving, meaty and so tasty. The shrimp shu mai and gyoza are very good. The maki rolls are also worth it, especially the 3x combo.

Really wonderful food and service thoroughly. Enjoyed everything about this restaurant. I go to a lot of Japanese restaurants for work and this is definitely right up there with the ones that I visited in Boston and other places highly recommend!

Higashi is a great place to eat. The food always tastes fresh, it's not too busy and service is good as well. Give them a try.Parking: It's part of a larger plaza so there is plenty of parking.Kid-friendliness: No issues bringing my kids there.

Ordered twice and disregarded my allergy requests twice. The product descriptions also never mentioned certain ingredients (crunchy) or I never would have ordered them in the first place. Received credit for the delivery service but will not give them a third chance. They do not take allergies seriously.

We had a fantastic waiter but the food maybe been better. The best shrimp shumai I've ever had and the friends rice and sushi was amazing. Can't forget the nigori sake; we will be back!
