“We’ve been coming here for a while and I just wanted to leave a review to show our appreciation! We haven’t had a bad experience here. The food is consistently delicious and the service is good too! Our favorite sushi place in the area and I like to think we’re pretty picky about sushi.Kid-friendliness: Lots of options for kids - edamame, we order the yakisoba noodles, our son loves the seaweed salad and so do we!“

“Brian/Bryan the server was knowledgeable and courteous. "Monkey Brain" appetizer and the specialty tuna rolls were all excellent. Sashimi platter of barracuda, young seabream and snapper was very good. Barracuda was delicate, fantastic; the umami-heavy seabream was slightly fishy, yet good, and the snapper was most complex with a more fatty feel than the other two. Make sure to ask for the fresh wasabi. Astonishing quality for a strip-mall kind of location. Neighborhood smart-casual vibe. Highly recommended.“

“Food is amazing and fresh, not to mention the great price! Portions are normal-large scale, and the atmosphere is cozy yet has a certain food stall feel to it. Service was fast, and they didn't let your cup go empty for long. I drive 30-40 min fight traffic on I45 to get here.“

“I was in between doctors appointments, then I asked Google where can I get the best sushi near me right now? It sent me here it was the BEST I'VE HAD IN YEARS!! I don't go down there often, but every time I do, I'll definitely stop in. I'll even bring my friends for a lunch date!! (I live 2 hours away) see you all soon!!! ??“

“Amazing food, Amazing service. We were lucky enough to sit next to an employee (Cam) that gave us a lot of good recommendations. Our sever Michael was very attentive and was definitely on his A game. Definitely will recommend this place and are already planning to bring our friends back here.“

“One of our go to places on 1488 in Magnolia. Every dish that I've had is fresh & flavorful. The service is on point. Many times we've had the chef wait on us and explain the specials. Although a casual atmosphere, the decor is beautiful. A very comfortable vibe.“

“Really nice people. They were very generous. The shrimp wonton soup was amazing!! I'd go back for that any day. The sushi was surprisingly fresh for the price. Not a huge fan of cream cheese or anything tempura, so we didnt have a lot of options, but we got the White Cox and Puppy Love rolls. Both delicious, relatively simple.“

“I made my own bowl and it was delicious! Can’t remember everything I put in there but it’s definitely a go to. I didn’t put a 5 star on the atmosphere because the store smells like a mildewed mop or a gas station bathroom. I wouldn’t eat inside the restaurant but I’d order to go.“

“My son and I go as often as we can. They have some of the freshest sushi around and their all you can eat menu has grown over the last year. The servers are hit n miss some great some not so great so make sure you are nice to the server and they will come back sooner for your next order and keep it coming. The food tastes amazing. The place is very clean. Highly recommend. They have a regular menu too and kid friendly food.“

“I arrived late to my hotel and needed a quick bite late at night and this was a pleasant surprise. I ordered the combination steak and shrimp habachi with rice. I can tell the owner takes pride in the service and the food ensuring the meal is up to your expectations.“

“????Rebel Sushi is a hidden gem in the heart of the city place! ? Our experience here was delightful, thanks in large part to our amazing waitress who also dazzled as our bartender ?. The sushi chefs truly showcased their skills, crafting each roll with precision and flair. ? The sushi itself was pretty darn good, hitting the spot just right! ? Overall, a fantastic dining experience that we'll definitely be returning for! ???One piece to note, take your time here and experience to food. Rushing is not a strong suit of this location, but with a chill attitude you’ll have an experience to remember.“

“I have lots of allergies (garlic, rice, sesame and soy) and generally avoid Japanese food due to this. We decided to eat here today and I was so glad that they fully accommodated my allergens! I had the teriyaki shrimp with no sauce and instead of rice, double steamed veggies. It was cooked beautifully, the shrimp were crispy and the steamed veggies had great texture! Thank you for being so accommodatingDietary restrictions: Very accommodating for my allergens!“

“The menu offers a wide range of dishes, from sushi and sashimi to ramen and tempura. The quality of the ingredients was impressive, and the presentation of each dish was visually appealing. I particularly enjoyed the freshness of the sushi! The ambiance of the restaurant is serene and well-designed, providing a comfortable setting for a casual dinner or special occasion. The staff was courteous and knowledgeable about the menu, offering helpful recommendations.“

“The dishes are excellent. The flavors are outstanding. Not your typical Chinese restaurant. The portions are small, but the price of the dishes is reasonable. This is a restaurant that is a must to try if you live in The Woodlands and Spring area. This will be a regular for us as long as the quality and taste continue.“

“We ordered the calamari and got what appeared to be a half order when we asked the waitress she told us it's because they are bigger pieces. Lol no I'm pretty sure they are all the same size. Went to take a bite and the calamari was as cold as spicy mayo. Yuck!!! Sushi should be could not your calamari. Waitress was very dismissive and didn't care about what was brought to her attention. Also we frequent this place very often and even the takeout calamari is hotter than what we got served. Do better!“

“This was my first take-out experience with Akashi, although I've eaten lunch at the restaurant on several occasions. All previous experiences have been positive and this was not an exception. The food was very well packaged and the aroma from the stir fries and spices let me know that I was in for a tasty meal. The orange chicken was crunchy and glazed with a sweet orange sauce. It came with a side of fried rice, soup and eggroll. It was a quick, tasty, and filling meal. At $9.95 for most dishes on the lunch menu, I highly recommend Akasi for dining-in or takeout lunches.“

“Chinese American food, although it says Japanese, somewhat greasy but very good flavor, if you are not on a diet, come here, good prices and abundant food and good flavor.Kid-friendliness: My kids love the food here, a little greasy for me but they totally love it for a day at the recommended mall then diet at home“

“Went there around Homecoming time on a Saturday evening. My husband and I were waiting for my younger daughter, who was having ice cream nearby with friends. We had our little dog on a leash with us and spontaneously decided to grab some dinner while waiting. We saw some outdoor seating at Shogun, so we asked if it was ok if we ate out there with our dog. They were kind enough to oblige. Despite it being very busy with Homecoming crowds of teenagers, the service was quite prompt and courteous. Someone from the staff (? Maybe owner or manager) even brought out a little paper bowl for us to pour water in for our puppy. Food was very good. We enjoyed the experience. We will definitely be back!“

“We treated our son and daughter in law. Since we are not from the area, they recommended Mikado as it was close to their home. We couldn't be happier. The food was excellent and the pricing was very fair for the quality of the food served. They have an incredible selection and variety of rolls. If you like sushi, try it! You will be glad you did.“

“Our first time here, and definitely will be back. Food was delicious, service from wait staff was consistent and quick. Chef met all our requests for our meal and overall a great experience. Was a little on the noisy side, and place is smaller with shorter ceilings. But definitely does not affect the overall experience.“

“We dine here a lot after church. Plenty of choices on the menu. Food is always good, served hot, in a reasonable amount of time. Service is friendly in a quiet atmosphere.Vegetarian options: I don't do the vegan or vegetarian thing, but if that's what you do, they have it.Parking: Ample for a small restaurant.“

“China Bridge Restaurant is a gem in The Woodlands, TX, offering a delightful fusion of Chinese, Japanese, and Thai cuisines. Since 2004, they have mastered the art of blending diverse flavors, ensuring every dish is fresh and full of authentic tastes. The prices are incredibly reasonable, making it a perfect spot for both dine-in and take-out.

“We are traveling, needed to eat, decided to try this, or it would have to be fast food as it was 9:10pm on Saturday. Great Hibachi, I had Scallops, wife had Jumbo Shrimp, GREAT PRICES for Hibachi! Show was very good, and entertaining, food was excellent.We are very glad we did not settle for fast food.“

“Quite and comfy location for lunch.Nice mellow music.Pho Chicken (white meat) with shrimp spring rolls tasted delicious.I’m not from this side of town, so I’m glad I chose and found a good tasting Pho place.Staff was nice and courteous.I ate too quickly and forgot to take pictures, but that’s my honest review. I also haven’t paid yet, so that cost won’t be in this review.“

“Maybe we're boring people, or maybe we just know a good thing when we find it. Every time we have a date night we choose Umami. I love this place, I love Eddie and his family, I love that atmosphere and the food and the early menu! My husband and I will occasionally contemplate trying another place, and then just forget it and go to Umami because we love it so much. Our son and daughter have chosen to have their birthday dinners here because of how much we rave about this place. It's a gem!“

“The food at this restaurant is the best that my son and I have ever had, his favorite is the chicken teppanyaki and mine is the scallion fish a must have. The atmosphere is delightful with the goldfish aquarium and relaxing decor. And Jane the manager there is very welcoming and gracious, as are the servers. Shogun (on 2920) is definitely a place to come for a delicious meal with friends and family. A+“

“My girlfriend and I decided to try this place for the first time. We normally read reviews before we go somewhere. But decided on a whim. Compared to what others have said, we thought the food was amazing. I’m normally not the guy who stands up from a table and says he’s full. But I did today. The spicy chicken was delicious and I love the fresh veggies.The only thing lacking was the service, the girl at the front talked so low we could barely hear her a foot away. And seemed kind of condescending towards a first time customer.“
