“The food was really fresh and delicious. The ambiance was lovely. They were very friendly and welcoming too! I wish I could give them 6 stars. Exceptional service for a cute little spot. Get some of the calamari, best in the area! And the prices were great.“
“We booked a private room for our daughter's birthday. The service was excellent (very pleasant). The sushi and sashimi was so tasty. I enjoyed the red bean mochi. They brought an ice cream platter and sang happy birthday too. Also the clientele was very kind and wished our daughter Happy Birthday on the way out as well. Great experience!“
“This is our family favorite japanese restaurant. We always go about twice a month. The food is awesome. We love sushi rice as it has tasted by itself. Sashimi comes with a wonderful premium grade and fresh. We never had bad experience with fish which is some of the restaurants may have like smell fishy or not fresh.Cheesecake on the house is the best and represent how kind of service.Really enjoy it everything and every time we spend there.“
“This restaurant offers a variety of options that cater to most taste buds. The food is reasonably priced and service is good. I came here to celebrate a family member’s birthday and the service was excellent. Our server, Brenden, made some great recommendations and ensured our food came out on time. We ordered the dumplings, chicken steam bun, cloud shrimp and fried chicken (Karaage) as appetizers. All were very great. We also ordered the Taipei Curry Chicken ramen, Brontosaurus bowl, Brussels & Squash, shrimp and pork belly steam buns as our entrees; all were filling and delicious. I think the curry chicken ramen could use more depth flavors; I added chili oil and mushrooms which were good additions. I also wish the chicken in the ramen was different than the chicken thighs offered as an appetizer. It made me feel like I was eating the same protein for my appetizer and entree.They have a nice drink menu; we all ordered the Last Samurai; which was tasty. I wish it came in a larger glass.I was disappointed they ran out of the miso cooking dessert but I’m looking forward to returning to try it. All in all; I would return. It’s a nice and cozy spot. They have an area where you can sit and watch the kitchen make the food as you dine.Parking: Parking can be scarce during busy times but there is street parking“
“This place has one heck of an atmosphere! Walls are decorated to make the place look as Japanese as possible. TV was on, playing a Japanese TV network. The restaurant had a visible food preparation area where the sushi chefs enthusiastically did their work. Restaurant did not pinch pennies on the waiters' and chefs' uniforms. The restaurant is on the corner of a row of several adjacent buildings and I liked their use of their window space. Once you open the door, the entrance is well-decorated, too. The podium the host stands behind is oddly situated, but they are making their best use of a small space, so no points taken off. The restroom was clean. I ordered escolar, toro, orata, and chicken katsu. All more than acceptable quality. I did not like the katsu sauce, but I think that's just a personal preference matter. They threw in some extra food- tuna in a circular configuration with some other elements I couldn't figure out- which I guess worked, since I'm here, writing this five-star review! Plates were high-quality, and designed to make the food more presentable.“
“Great aburasoba. Only 4 stars because they got rid of Umeboshi as a topping :(. It was so hecking good. Appetizers are okay. The fried squid was hard and chewy (not tender with a snap) and the sauce wasn't very flavorful either.Their vegan option is insulting. Please do better!! It's 2023.Edit 6/2023: the pickled plum is back thank the Lord. Secret menu item!! Still want a more exciting vegan option please.Edit again 7/2023: they have a new vegan option (that tasted great!) and the pickled plum is back on the menu. I've changed the review to five stars. Great work! My only new small complaint is the mochi on the side of the cheesecake was still frozen, not great.Edit 2/2024: the vegan option now has fried tofu, but the fried tofu is cold. I ordered mine with extra tofu (not knowing this) and the whole bowl quickly became luke warm and the cold tofu was unenjoyable. Please warm this up before serving!Vegetarian options: Great vegan option“
“The food was amazing, all of the meats were seasoned well and cooking it was fairly easy but the service provided by Kathleen was fantastic! She was very informative with explaining the menu and recommended options based on our hunger level or what we liked in general. Would definitely recommend coming back and getting Kathleen as a server, as well as having the delicious foods again.“
“Food:The sushi here is so good. It's some of the best I've had since moving to Baltimore. My favorite (so far) is the R (Roll) Lewis. The unagi and soft shell crab are also wonderful.Service:The server was attentive, never letting our water run out. Our food came out quickly, and the extra roll we ordered before we left arrived fast and packaged well.Atmosphere:We didn't get to see the whole restaurant, as we sat near the entrance. The chair felt a bit uncomfortable. But other than that, the atmosphere was pleasant and inviting.“
“From a takeout perspective, ordered the 20 piece sushi dinner but I think there was a mix up and we got 20 pieces of sashimi instead. Didn't realize until we got home. Sashimi was good but the sushi was a win.When dining, it's a casual small restaurant with a casual ambiance. Appears often busy and well located. The miso and clear soup are fresh and hot. Would recommend the sunset sushi roll. Vegetarian options were less thrilling.“
“I eat here so much I can't believe I'm just writing a review. Here's what I appreciate about Sushi Q...always consistent. The food is always prepared well. Everything tastes fresh and the service is always good. Their signature sushi rolls are amazingly creative and always good. My favorite of all of them is the Veterans Highway roll with real crabmeat. You have to try it. It doesn't matter if you eat in or get takeout, you will not go wrong here! Next time I'll take a pic of the deliciousness!“
“By far the best food and service you will get dining at BWI. The rolls are all freshly made and better quality than you will get at most sushi restaurants. The servers are attentive and you can actually get service quickly, unlike most airport restaurants. A variety of high quality sake options, as well as Japanese beers.“
“Omi's is a cut above most Japanese and Chinese fusion restaurants. The food is easy to enjoy over and over.I had the Salmon and Steak Teppanyaki which was quite shocking as it was well seasoned and paired well with my lite lunch appetite. I had some yum yum sauce and eel sauce and didn't need to add anything because the meat was not dry. The fillet and stake was a well done dish.The food is great and service is super fast because I came there and in less than 7 mins me and about 5 other people plus some dashers were able to pick up food fresh as fast as we ordered it. Plus they didn't skimp on portions either because you got what you paid for, which is a hot, off the grill, and not a frozen or preheated or semi sweetened food.Only thing I didn't know, or like was that it was not as visible from the main road. Which is after the Little Caesars and next to the bowling lanes. Otherwise, I would have came here first instead of the Panda Express which was kinda off the beat. One more thing was that it was a okay experience because all the chairs were metal. I just need better place to sit down... that's all.I will try the sushi rolls, or vegetarian options next time.Parking: 20 to 30 in the strip mallKid-friendliness: Easy menu for kids and places to sit down with them as well.“
“Staff was excellent also the chefs are alot of fun to watch prepare my food and talk with,The food and management was 10 out 10.Strongly recommend this place.Dietary restrictions: Allergic to avocados totally AccommodatedI am not a vegetarian....“
“We frequent this place as it’s the closest to our neighborhood. The service is very friendly always. The food is good quality and made with good quality ingredients. The inside of the restaurant is a bit too cold, but that’s my only gripe. If you carry out your food, my only piece of advice is to get it right away. Don’t let it sit too long or it won’t be as tasty :)“
“If you live in the local area, this place is a no-frills sushi place with pretty quick service and pretty presentation. My partner and I like to go here mid-week for dinner when we don't feel like cooking. All of the seats are wooden booth seating, which I really like. The waiters are professional and attentive, but don't circle back too often. The sushi we order doesn't have too much rice packed on like other places. On our most recent trip, I got the unagi don and he got the pork katsu curry. We will be back!“
“It's been a long time since I've been to Aloha Sushi in Baltimore, since before the pandemic. decided to try them for lunch and the experience was good! apparently the sushi roller, Rajesh, is back, after they changed management. I had the lunch special for the Salmon roll, the tuna role and the Boston roll! it was good and hit the spot. definitely coming back for a date, Mount Vernon is one of my favorite spots.“
“Our daughter loves sushi and this is her absolute favorite sushi restaurant. We’ve been here a number of times and the staff is always amazing, as is the food. Today was my daughter’s 5th birthday and when we asked her where she wanted to go for dinner, she told us Mizu Sushi. I’m pretty sure she’d make us take her there every day for their Philly roll and miso soup if she could. Absolutely cannot recommend this place enough. Just wonderful. (Also, my favorite is their Maryland roll. It’s soooooo good!)“
“I finally found AMAZING sushi in the Baltimore area! I’ve returned 3 weeks in a row to Naru. Their salmon sashimi is the freshest I’ve had in the States, and their rolls are terrific. Naru Sushi is part of the BeSeTo food court, with 3 Chinese, Korean, and Japanese restaurants and a marketplace downstairs. The ambiance is casual and relaxed. I've only tried the Japanese place, but the food court is always packed, and all the food looks great!“
“I like eating here and any of the other branches of Sushi Q because you always know what you're gonna get if you dine in: miso soup, sushi, and a small cheesecake dessert in a consistently clean/ minimalist space. It's not the fanciest sushi in the area, but sometimes I just want to eat a whole bunch of eel avocado roll and that's what I can get here fresh and affordable. I like to dabble here and there with some of their specialty rolls, but they do my favorite kind so well. Service is scientifically efficient and food can take a little while to prepare, but I'm not usually in a big rush. There's always a line out the door for online/mobile orders. When dining in, there's hardly ever a wait even though it can get crazy busy during dinner. They also have good lunch specials here. We will be back for more.“
“I got door dash. It was sooo yummy. I got the beef and shrimp with noodles rice and veggies. It's worth the upcharge, at least to me. Quite large portion. Also, I got some cooked rolls. I enjoyed it all. Enough to order the same exact thing a second time. It was more than enough for 2. Probably 3 easy! ** A trick I figured out for myself. Up to you, of course! I did get the dash pass for 9.99. It saved me more than the price I would have paid. I canceled afterwards but still got the perks for a month, which saved me even more in the long run.** The 3 bucks off was a discount from them, from their point system. DOORDASH did get me on the tip part. I wanted to give them $10. Please always tip at least 18%. As a server, we count on that money. Very very much. Enjoy!!“
“The food is exceptional, although it can be found looking up Chinese food, it's Japanese American hibachi style food. It's the only "Chinese" my husband will eat. I am a little disappointed that they don't offer pork, but I do understand their reasoning. Would definitely recommend.“
“Pleasant atmosphere and helpful staff. They also serve vegetarian dishes and will veganize (omit egg, mayonnaise, fish) your food upon request.Some months ago, my family visited Sushi Sakura for lunch and ordered Japanese Vegetable Fried Rice, Vegetable Lo Mein, Cucumber Avocado Rolls and more. Everything was tasty!“
“I've been here twice now and will be back because of the affordable quality nigiri and prime location by the water. The restaurant itself has a cozy vibe, not too fancy. That's fine-- I'm all about food over ambiance if given the choice between the other. I am a sushi enthusiast (gimme the omakases!) and was hankering for some fresh wasabi, but I guess they don't offer that here. The service is alright. The first time around, I sat on the mats with a friend (pretty neat that they offer that, I've only seen it in a few izakaya style restaurants). The waitress was nice but felt like the timing was off for when we wanted certain things (ordering, receiving food, receiving the bill). The second time around, I sat at the sushi bar and was able to be helped more promptly and in a pattern that made more sense to me. The sushi chefs were friendly and willing to answer any questions I had.As far as food goes, the aburi toro is phenomenal! 3 large chunks of flame-seared toro marinated in a citrusy umami sauce for $20.The rockfish is topped with a spicy orange garnish that adds a great little kick. The salmon belly is quality. You can tell by how fresh, vibrant, and near-translucent they look. It's also my favorite nigiri! The tuna belly was good, not as marbled as I'd like, but still good. Thick, juicy portions.I'd pass on the yellowtail belly, it wasn't quite as melty-in-your-mouth as the tuna belly and salmon belly. Can you tell I love the bellies? Try them out for yourself“
“Great sushi and great Chinese also at reasonable prices! I've been getting sushi at Sakura for a while but tonight we also got General Tso's and it was really good and the portion was huge! I dont think Sakura gets the street cred in Annapolis that it deserves- Its a cozy spot with great food and great views of downtown! Now I can't wait for our leftovers tomorrow!“
“Went for the omakase on a Thursday lunch.Clean, firm, deeply-colored fish. Rice was well-seasoned. The chef added subtle but flavorful twists or garnishes to each nigiri. Finished us off with two delicious maki made from fresh scraps of tuna and salmon.The place was empty during our whole visit, which was surprising given how much we enjoyed the meal. Notably, the portions were quite large. Don’t underestimate this one - you will be full after!“
“this is one of my favorite spots in baltimore for good sushi- great service, reasonable prices, and overall great food. its never super loud or busy inside, which is nice to have a good relaxing meals. it's a staple in our lunch rotation.“
“Katana Sushi of Elkridge was amazing. The sushi was super fresh and very tasty. I’ve tried the other sushi restaurants in the area and around Columbia and I like Katana more, they really impressed me. I also really liked their customer service and how pleasant they were. Highly recommend them. All the rolls were delicious!“
“Eaten here a few times and really like the food. The prices are reasonable. Although with many other restaurants, prices seem to have gone up and portions have stayed the same. My go to was the steak and scallops and it doesn't disappoint, but the price is a little steep and have to save for special occasion.“
“My family sometimes in the past had gotten carry out from here before we dined in. Since the tables are all on the second floor at the top of some steep stairs accessibility probably isn't the best. There is a large menu, with plenty of options. I ordered the beef teriyaki lunch which came with soup, salad, and rice, I really enjoyed it. I also ordered a marble soda which was pretty tasty, although it took a few seconds for me to open since it's been so long since I had one. In order to open a marble soda you need to take off the plastic film, remove the outer cap, punch out the opener from the middle of the removed cap, and then you can use the opener to dislodge the marble so that you can have a drink.“
“Ikkyu is inside Lotte's food court and is my favorite choice out of the 4 restaurants inside! Tonkatsu 10/10- crispy, lots of sauce- comes with rice, pasta salad with cucumbers, a side salad, pickled yellow radish, and a small bowl of miso soup - they used to also give kimchi but I guess they updated the menu Once you order, they'll call your order name/number on the intercom once it's finished. Service is relatively quick!“
“4.5/5. Nothing too fancy, just good take-out Chinese. I had the chicken broccoli and chicken lo mien with an order of spring rolls (2). Best I've had in the area so far. They cooked the chicken and broccoli to my expectations. The spring rolls were crisp and packed full of veggies. I enjoyed the lo mien. After trying a few places in the Laurel-Severn area which were disappointing... I will definitely be back to try more dishes in the future.“
“I enjoyed everything about this place. Get there and there were no other customers in the restaurant, so it was very quiet. Had a few rolls and an order of the shrimp and vegetable tempura. The eel rolls never disappoint but the tempura was more veg than shrimp. Nothing tasted past it's prime and price was not bad either. Overall food was decent but I really like the environment. Sat by the window and wasn't pressured to leave after eating must have spent two hours just chatting away before realizing still hadn't gotten the check.“
“The food is tasty and they are pretty quick with their service. They now have a self ordering kiosk which we haven't used but plan to next time. I only gave the atmosphere 3 stars because it's not much for atmosphere. They have a few tables to sit and eat but I never used them. Mostly sit and wait. Overall they give you a decent amount of food. If you have a lot of orders they give you a box to carry your stuff out. But that was recent due to the plastic bag ban.“
“We love Azumi ambiance is great it on the waterfront in Baltimore. The A5 Wagu melts in your mouth they offer it by the ounce. But it's enough for 4 people we ordered 4 ounces. The yellowtail jalapeño sushi is another favorite. The lychee cocktail is pricy and did not taste like it really had alcohol which was very disappointing. Overall it's a fun place with friends and we shared all the plates along with the fried rice which is delicious. You can't go wrong with any of the menu items. I gave it 4 stars because of the cocktails.“
“Since the 'pandemic' the Dine-In is no longer an option. However they do such a good job & are so well liked the joint is jumping. Regardless of your liking Sushi, Thai, Chinese or Japanese dishes all of them are done well, w/o breaking the bank. . . you just got to go home and eat cuz their dining-room is closed.“
