“Very very busy when we went in. A huge birthday party going on in the back party room. Didn't hear it but you could see. We waited a while to be seated and then over 30 minutes food. But we'll cut them some slack they were so busy. Food was good. The California roll was a little mushy. A very weird thing is there was no tea offered You have to order it, not a big deal but would have been nice. We'll go back“

“I've been here twice. The first time was on a Thursday evening about an hour before closing, very quiet. The second was at 5:45pm on a Saturday, where we got the last available table, all counter and free table space was devoted to holding bags of take-out, and the waiting area was standing room only about 20 minutes later. The good news is that there was no difference in the quality of the food or service provided between these two distinctly different visits. My first experience was the intense aroma of the tea they serve, I almost couldn't wait for it to finish steeping. Strong flavor continued beyond with appetizers and sauces. The rolls were well prepared, accompanied by generous amounts of wasabi and ginger. Small amounts of wasabi enhanced the flavors of the fish rolls, no accompaniment was needed beyond that. For what initially appears to be a small menu, the number of rolls available is amazing. Service was on point, we received just the right amount of service and attention, and tea refills came out quickly. Even at the busiest times, there was no chaos, no backlog, no perceived problems.“

“The food is always good. I've yet to have a bad meal. 10 plus years of coming here. Last nights pad Thai shrimp was phenomenal as always. My boyfriend and son got chicken and they both were equate happy. Little spring rolls added to the best meal I could ask for. Thanks Mizu!“

“Every experience we’ve had has been positive. The staff are attentive and kind. They genuinely seem happy to serve their customers. We had a mix up w a take out order and they apologized repeatedly. On our next trip, the remembered my name and more than compensated us for the mistake. I was blown away by the customer service. And the food? It’s spot on. Fresh, delicious and consistently good. Niji is truly a gem in the heart of Rotterdam and my family and I would highly recommend their establishment.“

“If you haven't already tried Zhu's Kitchen, you must!! It's the BEST Chinese food in Rotterdam. The food is always fresh and hot, the wait staff are always polite, friendly and accommodate your requests, as well as the owners being very hard working and take great pride in their food and business!! I have tried several different things here, which ALL have been exceptional!! So give Zhu's Kitchen a try... it will keep you coming back for more!!“

“Went specifically for the hibachi, was not disappointed. Very tasty food, though obviously lots and lots of butter. Very accommodating with allergies.Dietary restrictions: Restaurant seemed super accommodating for allergy modifications in the sushi menu. Gluten free soy sauce available upon request.“

“This is the best sushi restaurant in the area. I have had sushi in Vancouver BC and this sushi is as fresh and top quality . It is fresh, generous portions and staff is over the top accommodating. I eat here 2x a week. They value family and look out for their customers. Also it is wonderfully priced! Love you all!“

“I tried the new menu Ramen and bubble tea yesterday. The ramen is probably the best in the area. Will be my go-to ramen place from now on. The owner said he made the broth in-house from scratch. You can really taste the difference from those artificial broths.“

“Great sushi and appetizers - I do t think we have had a halfway decent meal, it has all been great. The sushi portions and appetizers are very generous. Due to the size of the location it does get very busy and there may be a wait, however it seemed like they have three different staff working each table to we were not left sitting and waiting for drink refills or sauce etc. if you can call ahead of time and get a nice window seat which will set the ambiance well for your dinner. Overall this is a nice cozy place with great sushi, just make sure you go fairly early in the Eve in to avoid the online order rush!“

“Best Ramen I had! Nothing like your typical Ramen soup you buy at grocery store. I got the seafood Ramen and broth was so good! The shrimp were huge and it had Japanese scallops, which are very different than regular scallops, they looked like clams. Overall a very yummy soup! Next time I am trying the pool ramen!“

“Celebrated some good things happening last night. We all enjoyed our meals, as usual, and took advantage of their buy a fancy sushi, get a regular sushi free. My daughter got hot tea, and they kept it full all night. She was in heaven. Highly recommend.Parking: Lots of parking and 2 entrances; one from Van Buren and one from Route 50.“

“My FAVORITE restaurant!!! So gooood. The location doesn't reflect how GOOD the food is but i would DEFINITELY RECOMMEND going here. My family and I have been going here for years. Prices are totally reasonable and DELICIOUS. The woman that works here is the sweetest and the survice is so fast. I'm greeted with a smile and such an amazing atmosphere every single time. Their gyoza and miso soup is to die for. Any sushi on the menu is extraordinary.“

“went here for dinner and the food was awesome, I ordered the mango chicken because it was not something I'd normally get and I was not disappointed, it was a lot of delicious food, my wife ordered ordered some crab sushi rolls and she was enjoying it alot“

“Been coming here and ordering take out for the last three years I’ve been in the area. I’ve never been disappointed. Sushi is fresh always and the hibachi is great. The staff is really attentive and friendly too. I would recommend the teriyaki lunch specials or any of the special rolls. The udon bowls are great too.“
