“The best. As they say, "I hope I die before Asia Cuisine goes out of business." This restaurant can make basically any asian food from sushi to sesame chicken to bulgogi to bento to homemade yakisoba. And if you order for pickup, the food is ready so fast! 2 quick parking spaces on Seneca Street so picking up food is easy. Also, dining in is surprisingly pleasant even if the restaurant looks like nothing special from the street.“

“This is an AMAZING sushi and hibachi house, I got a couple pieces of sashimi and the steak and chicken hibachi. To start, they gave soup AND a salad with a super tasty dressing that is definitely homemade. The sashimi was sooooo fresh and yummy and perfectly temped. The steak was super tender and the chicken was sooo good, the sauce that the chicken was in was to die for. Also, their fried rice was amazing. I honestly wish I lived in this city so I can try more of their sushi! Also also, the portions were huuuge!“

Favorite Japanese restaurant in all of NYI tried takoyaki for the first time and it was absolutely delicious. Full of rich and delicious flavor. I had the shrimp tempura sushi, as well as miso soup and mango boba. I would completely recommend coming to this restaurant.“

“I went for a late lunch about 3pm and got immediate friendly service in a relatively quiet, relaxed atmosphere. Food was outstanding: steamed edamame, sashimi mackerel (my favorite raw fish), and cumin beef, plus hot tea. I made an absolute pig of myself for a little over $30 including tip. Great food and an excellent bargain. I live nearby, so they're going to see more of me. If you like robust flavor in your seafood, try the mackerel!“

“I often crave the shrimp stew with sweet potato noodles (sometimes I get it extra spicy sometimes not). They're generous with the shrimps--six PHAT MEATY PRAWNS WITH HEAD ATTACHED (which makes it better btw)-- and the broth is *drools*During certain hours you can also do their rice soup and (I think it was three) items lunch special. Some of their food items are better than others. You do not come here for nice ambiance or sweet service. It's one of those you order good food and you sit down and eat when it's ready places lol“

“Truthfully I'd give it four stars but when I saw that Oishii Bowl only has three stars overall I was shocked because it deserves better imo. I actually like the ramen/soups here more than the ramen at Maru Ramen.Each soup dish has a distinctive flavour and imo some taste better than others. One soup dish that never misses is the Veggie ramen. Chewy green noodles and a ginger miso broth with the perfect ratio of toppings to noodles. Perfection. Stick to the entree options. If you really want some kinda side dish go for the sweet sticky rice. This is a casual no-frills sit down spot. If you eat in the shop they've got free hot tea that you can dispense in cups. Service is quick.“
