Bikkuri Sushi Noodle & Grill

Been here a few times now and love it every time. The staff are so incredibly nice and the food prices aren’t too bad in my opinion. This time around we (my family & I) got Japanese golden curry with kastu chicken, panko shrimp, chicken dumplings/gyoza, crab rangoon, edamame and clear soup (which was recommended to us). Everything was very yummy. My mom especially liked the sauce that was served with the gyoza. Would definitely recommend checking this spot out.

The service was 5 stars the guys were so nice& helpful, the food was good but I’ve definitely had tastier sushi, despite all I would come back, good vibes !

This Restaurant has been our favorite for many years. Great sushi, amazing happy hour and they have kept thier prices fair. Can't find a better sushi spot in Orlando. The staff are always friendly and we have loved coming back and will continue for years to come!

This was my go-to until recently. I guess it's been a while since my last visit because things have changed a bit. The size of the sushi for the process had me in shock. $16 for a beef roll and $13, i believe, for the shrimp tempora roll. These rolls are smaller than I originally remembered. The shrimp tempora tasted as if it's been fried and put in the fridge till someone ordered it. Cold. I couldn't eat it. What surprised me the most is how they now charge a cc fee on your bill. This is new. Catch this, I paid cash, and they still made me pay a cc fee. This isn't right, nor does it make sense. Why pay a fee for a cc when you pay cash? Please read your recipes, people. I won't be back. I will tell everyone this experience.

Amazing food and service. Very welcoming. I have high standards for sushi too since my parents own a nice sushi restaurant and this place was actually really good and flavorful rolls. The service was so nice too like being treated like family. Definitely coming back here. Also the mango sticky rice was so good!

lobster cajun roll was flavorful, something you wouldn’t typically taste on sushi roll. the spider roll was huge and so were the spicy tuna inari! the vibe was so chill, tucked up stairs. looking forward to coming back for dinner 😊

I’m usually so patient when it comes to slow service but we dined here and did not have the best experience. I want to preface by saying there was 1 other table in the entire restaurant so the server was not busy. We ordered drinks and our sake came after our appetizer and our entree and when it came it was the wrong kind of sake and she brought 2 instead of the 1 we ordered and we were charged for both. Also the server dumped my water all over me which is totally fine mistakes happen, but she never offered to replace the water and when we asked her for another one later she still never brought me another water which takes maybe 1 minute and there was nobody else there at this point. We weren’t offered anything for the inconvenience but who seemed to be the manager or owner did come out and just look at me after a drink was dumped on my lap but he did not say anything. Fair to say we will never return here. Food was alright but can find way better.

I’ve been coming here for maybe the last 10 years. The food is fantastic, from the sushi to the platters! Very kind service! Highly recommend to anyone wanting quality Japanese food and sushi!

Service was beyond amazing! Would definitely eat here again. Great prices and great food. Will be back soon!

Bikkuri Sushi is my favorite sushi restaurant in Orlando! This spot is so cute and super interesting because when you enter, you go up the stairs, and then when you sit down, you get a nice view of the city. The staff are so nice, the food is incredible, and all for a reasonable price. I used to go there at least three times a month when I went to UCF for college.

I tried this place out back in December with my sister. The food was okay. Nothing memorable. I wouldn't go back. We ordered a few sushi rolls, fried dumplings and the pork belly. The pork belly was really disappointing. The sushi was okay. The service was fine. Host took us to our table and the waiter took our order. Nothing memorable about the entire experience. There are many other asian places to visit in this part of town that will be a better dining experience.

Hadn't been here in a while. This place used to be good. The happy hour was always reasonably priced with a large variety of items. My recent visit was a disappointment as their happy hour prices have increased substantially and the choices aren't so great. The food and presentations are substandard in. The service is lacking due to only one server for all tables. We'll probably not be going back

Probably one of the worst sushi restaurants I've been too. It's a shame because the restaurant is in such a great location, but the food is completely underwhelming. We ordered 4 rolls, cocktails, miso soup, and an appetizer sampler. The best item was by far the miso soup. The rolls were completely underwhelming, and the cocktails were not consistent. I ordered two of the same drinks and they were both very different in the ingredient ratios.

Great time here! Husband and I went for the happy hour which is 5-7pm everyday. We got the volcano roll, crazy yellowtail roll, bikkuri special roll (asked for it to not be fried) and 2 pieces of the salmon nigiri...we also got the 2-4-1 cold saké. Everything was fresh and delicious! It came out super quick too. We got there around 6:15 pm and we were a little worried that we wouldn't have enough time for the happy hour but we actually were leaving by 7:05 pm full of food and happy! The prices were great and you really can't beat 2-4-1 drinks! Our server was attentive and made sure we were taken care of. The vibe is super cool. You go up some stairs and suddenly you're on a 2nd floor restaurant! We were seated right next to the window which was really lovely because we got to see the city from the window. Music was like early 2000's genre which I loved. Definitely a hidden gem but worth a try! Will be back.

Catering review. The service here is amazing! It didn't take too long for me to receive a phone call about my catering inquiry. They called to confirm what my budget was, my wants (in terms of type of sushi) and the occasion. My inquiry ended being an order and I was completely satisfied by the price and sushi selection they offered! For what I ordered, they even added some appetizers at no charge! If you want sushi catering for your next event, choose BIKKURI!!! You won't be disappointed!

Overall: First time here, the happy hour menu was nice to save a few bucks. The sushi was fresh and tasty. We would go back again. They have private parking lot and a full bar. Appetizer: Spicy garlic edamame. Id have to say the biggest disappointment in nearly all ways. The portion was very small, and the garlic and spice seemed like an afterthought and not really on the edamame(and was an upcharge). The edamame itself was cooked well though. Main course: We ordered the Crazy Yellowtail Roll, spicy tuna, kimchi and hurricane rolls. We enjoyed them all and all tasted like fresh fish, most importantly. We would recommend trying any or all of them. Side note: Alot of rolls had krab or shrimp, but we were happy with our selections. Service: Service was average, to be honest I think it was just our server the other servers seemed more energetic and attentive.

Long time customer- over 15+years. Love their sushi and their customer service. Pete is the best. Tried the Hamachikama jaw this visit and it was amazing. Crispy skin and tender fish. Jackie Rangoon is the best egg rollish starter- egg roll dipped in tempura hot and cheesy w/shrimp inside. Philly roll is always on our table. Excellent window seats for the whole dining experience.

So glad I was able to go back here for the second time with a friend. And so glad my friend ordered appetizers. I cannot stop thinking about the fried gyoza. Great, hilarious service. The vibes are a bit divey despite it being super bright and inviting. But divey in a good way. You have to go inside this old building and up the stairs , it feels like a secret. Great food. My only gripe is the Kirin I got was $12! Way overpriced for a beer.

Super cute Sushi restaurant! Hidden away upstairs it feels relaxing and exclusive. Their happy hour is SO GOOD. Great sushi prices, and their drink prices are hard to beat. The service seemed a little understaffed so it took some time to get our order in but everyone was very kind. Their purple haze hot sake is my favorite thing I ordered They also do parties on the weekend and play this incredible techno Japanese style music. I will be back regularly!

My family and I love Bikkuri. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The restaurant is always clean and we have been fortunate to never have too long of a wait when we go. I have heard they have a great happy hour, but I've never done that! There offer a large variety of rolls. Our server was able to give great recommendations. We loved the Cajun Lobster roll because it just had a unique flavor profile. The dancing yellow tail roll was also very good. I have had their lychee martini in the past and it is delicious. I always love coming back to Bikkuri!

This place is a hole in the wall on the second floor that our friend recommended to us and it was great!! The service was very quick, we had an issue with our pad Thai coming out a little cold, and our server was on top of it. He had it switched for a fresh pad Thai and it was perfect. The sushi was so fresh I loved the dancing yellow tail! I don't remember what the other role was that we got but it was also very good. I definitely am looking forward to coming back to this location.

Husband and I went to this restaurant with our little one. It was the first time we were trying a restaurant with my baby, so I wanted to pick a place that I knew wouldn't be too packed in case my child goes ballistic. Luckily, I was right, and the restaurant had a light crowd at the time and no wait. We sat down and I ordered the Thai iced coffee, shrimp tempura roll, and real crab roll. I wanted the lobster roll I usually get, but it was off the menu. They only had the Cajun lobster roll (which sounds spicy) and the server told me they didn't have lobster available at all that day. The food got to us in about 30 minutes. The Thai coffee was great, and you have the option of adding boba to it. The real crab roll was a bit bland, but I enjoyed the shrimp tempura roll like I always do. My husband said his rolls were too small but they tasted good, so overall we had a good time.

I'm a little thrown off by the poor reviews. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed our dinner here. Hidden gym, super cool ambience, friendly and welcoming staff, very clean. The menu is super extensive and you can tell it's authentic Japanese cuisine. My boyfriend ordered the Japanese golden curry (he orders curry everywhere) and yes, it was different because it was Japanese curry, but he LOVED IT. He described it as perfectly portioned, perfect heat level , perfect flavors, and evenly packed with vegetables and protein! I ordered the Living Color sushi roll with black truffle sauce. It was super good. The house salad with homemade sauce was also amazing and the lettuce was just so fresh- our server grows the lettuce! Chicken gyoza was amazing too. This place is such a HIDDEN GEM. great happy hour deals too! Blake, our server, was awesome. We will be back! Music was so my jam, too.

Love this place! The food and ambiance are great! The staff is very catering especially Jason.

Super late review of a casual go-to Sushi place in the Colonial area in Orlando. If you're looking for a quick sushi fix, either for dine-in or take-out, you have found the perfect location. When I used to go there a lot, they had both a downstairs casual dining area, upstairs dining hall, and a lounge where you can book for karaoke parties. Not sure whether they still have it nowadays. Will stop by and find out. Despite being on the busy Colonial Drive (SR-50), if you go and park in the back, it's actually very easy to find. My go to was Maki B (or any other Maki's for that matter), which was probably spicy salmon roll and chicken (cooked) rolls. I'm a sucker for anything Salmon, so I like Kobachi Salmon, basically it's just raw salmon cubes lightly glazed with sriracha and garnished with green onions and some herbs. On that particular day I was treating a small company of friends so I also ordered a small plate and a usual tuna and salmon sushi/ nigiri. One dish that I would recommend you to try is the okonomiyaki. It is kind of like a Japanese pancake with many toppings. When made right, it would be a very tasty dish that not many people know about. Don't forget your chopsticks!

Me and my girlfriend love this place as a local sushi restaurant. Honestly not sure why these reviews are middle or negative I totally give it 5 stars. This place is a great place with strong cheap drinks, delicious quality sushi, and a great vibe being on the second floor. Me and my GF like to try and come here regularly as we love this place I would totally check it out if I were you.

What helped set this experience out was our server, Pete. He was very friendly, had a great sense of humor, and was open to offer honest suggestions to make sure we had an enjoyable dining experience. The first thing about Bikkuri is the entrance, you'll probably find it unique as it is located on the second floor. We happened to time it right where they had their happy hour going on (5pm-7pm) where there are 2/1 drinks and an assortment of appetizers and rolls. This is where things did begin to get a bit misleading, and pricing is something they should attend to. Some of the items the normal price is actually the same as the happy hour and were placed there to give the allure of more items being discounted than they are. For example the Kampyo roll is normally $3.99 and priced as being a happy hour special at $4. With that out of the way, how's the food and drink? The rolls/nigiri were excellent! They offer a large variety and everything seems to be freshly prepared to order. Their ramen was nothing to write home about, but their apps (tempura, karokke, Rangoon) were very good as well. Overall it's worth stopping in-the service was excellent and the sushi as well. Definitely worth giving them a try if you've ever been curious about the "restaurant upstairs"!

My husband took me here for my birthday. A large variety of veggie and vegan options. We opted for the fried tofu udon and two rolls! the service was friendly and kind. the restaurant is small, but since most all tables are next to the window, you have a nice view of colonial to people watch which you eat. would return.

The food here is excellent in flavor, but the portions are smaller than most other sushi places. For the price i paid vs what i got I was a little disappointed. But overall i would probably order again from them just due to the flavor and quality.

My go to sushi spot! I love this place! It's upstairs and has a nice view of colonial. The prices on the sushi are amazing!! Everything is fresh & the servers are friendly and patient. Try the spicy tuna or crab Inari! It's to die for. As u can see by me stuffing my face :,)

the food and service were great. It's located upstairs and around a corner, so make sure you get your bearings. The one critique would be it was so hot in there! The shades on the windows couldn't stop the sill from being scalding and eating in the heat is just not a good experience for me. The beer helped with that though :)

I have to say I was a bit underwhelmed by my experience. i saw other reviews taking about a great happy hour but all the sushi rolls were around $10-15+ for basic California rolls, tuna rolls etc. The appetizers were only $1 less than original price, really not that great of a deal in my opinion. I ordered the steamed gyozas which were really good. I also ordered the Japanese curry and it unfortunately had very little taste and would not call it a curry. It was more of a soup. The chicken was dry and lacked flavor. Also they add a fee if you use a credit card which is inconvenient

Always a pleasure when I pop in here! Been coming since 2006 I would say, and it's always been a fun little spot for me. Great for some casual eats!

Hungry for sushi and decided to make a last minute stop here on the way home. Wasn't disappointed at all the food was really fresh and delicious. From the soups to the cocktails to the krab Rangoon and octopus salad. You can't go wrong and all fairly priced too.

Came here for a Birthday lunch with a group of friends. Service was great and the waitress was very attentive to our table. It is a bit of a small restaurant and wasn't busy the time we came in to eat. Place seems kind of hidden because you have to walk up stairs to get to the restaurant. I ordered the Shrimp Udon noodle soup which didn't have much flavor and it was hard to eat. I even tried putting Sriracha in my soup to give it some taste. It was mediocre. I asked the waitress if I could have my tempera shrimp on the side because I didn't want it to get soggy in my soup. I enjoyed their edamame, which was perfectly steamed and salted!

I just love this place. Amazing happy hour, excellent food and could not have better food every time I go. I am so happy it is still in our neighborhood and managed to survive the Covid. Truly wonderful!

Love their sushi!! We go there almost every week with my coworker. Shout out to Pete and Noom

Delicious! We had 7 rolls and loved them all. The ambiance is fun, which we are usually pick up people. Service is great and food came out pretty quick for the huge order we had.

Came here to meet up with an old friend from college! When you get to the building you would never know this is located here. You have to walk up a flight of stairs. Once we sat down, we ordered 2 rolls of sushi each and crab Rangoons. Everything was great, fish was super fresh and super flavorful. The vibe is very downtown and cute. They had a very large selection of sushi. I also noticed that all of their rolls had one unique thing about them; for example, the normal volcano roll I ordered also has mango on it here... it was different but a very subtle extra flavor and very good. We did come on a Monday so there was only 1 other group here so it was super quiet but I don't think it is always like that!! Overall great sushi spot to try

I went to have dinner here on a Friday night and the place was somewhat dead. I ordered a mango Mojito which has no mango in it. It looked green. For dinner, I ordered Japanese curry with chicken & shrimp. It was awful, curry is supposed to be thick but this was more like a soup texture. Overall in my opinion, this restaurant is simply average at best. I paid $37 + $10 tip but it wasn't worth it at all.

I've been a fan of Bikkuri for years now, but the last time I checked in on Yelp, I noticed that I had yet to write a review for them. How has a restaurant that I've been enjoying for years hasn't had a Yelp review from me is a mystery to me and it's time I rectify that. Bikkuri is awesome. You know that, I know that. There's no beating around the bush here. Located on E. Colonial just short of the Mills/50 intersection sits this awesome restaurant located on the second floor of a building. The parking lot next to Bikkuri is somewhat limited, but I've found that you can park at other areas within close proximity without punishment. What is Bikkuri? Their official business name is Bikkuri Sushi, Noodle & Grill, and I think that's a pretty apt summation of their restaurant. They're not only a sushi joint; they offer plenty of other Asian dishes, all of which are as top quality as their sushi. The menu is huge and offers everything from sushi to sashimi to noodle dishes to pad Thai to ramen. If you have an affinity for Asian food, this is a great place to go if you're in the mood for Asian food but can't decide on exactly what type as of yet. Their sushi is superb. Probably some of the best I've had in Orlando, and they definitely don't skimp you on the portions. My suggestion would be to order more than one roll and keep the others for leftovers. You could plan out a week's worth of meals with this place. This past Sunday, a close friend of mine and I came here to celebrate our annual "Forget the Super Bowl, Let's Go Eat Sushi" tradition. But as soon as I got there, I started to eyeball their ramen. I've liked just about everything I've tried from Bikkuri, but I had yet to try their ramen. Spoiler alert: their ramen is awesome. Fresh veggies, tasty broth, delicious noodles, and a good variety of selections for protein. My beef ramen was the perfect antidote for a couple of days of a cold and a disinterest in Super Bowl activities. Like I mentioned above, they hook you up. Their ramen bowl was so big that I had to take half home for leftovers. Bikkuri loves to make sure that you're full and that you've gotten the most out of them. The staff is always friendly and ready to explain dishes you're not familiar with. Also, I love the fact that this place is located on the second floor of a building. It reminds of New York City restaurants that operate on the second floor of a building while the first floor is doing something else. It gives it a slight Speakeasy charm to it. Like I said above, Bikkuri is kind of a Jack-of-all-trades as far as Asian food is concerned, and this is a great place to bring friends and family who are in the mood for Asian but can't decide on which in particular. They are also very kid-friendly and are more than willing to accommodate customers with children. I consider Bikkuri to be an Orlando staple, and I urge any Orlando residents to give them a shot. They've been around a long time, and there's certainly a reason why. Bikkuri has nailed down a lot of Asian cuisines, and if you're with a party of people who are down for Asian food, this is probably the best place you could go to, and everyone will be happy with the results. If you're a solo restaurant goer, just go and check out a few items from the menu. I think you'll like what you see and taste.

You can drive right by this place if you're not paying attention. Its on the 2nd floor of a building on colonial. You enter and walk up the staircase to a nice lounge, small and intimate. Today, I ordered sushi for pickup because I was in between jobs and couldn't stop in. I called ahead of time and the food was ready by the time they told me. Workers were wearing masks when they greeted me. When looking at the menu online, there were spelling errors, which immediately made me feel uneasy about ordering from here. Its just one of those details I think is important. The sushi tasted good. The volcano deluxe roll had a unique mix of flavors and was very filling. My biggest issue was that the prices online did not match the prices they charged me. I think the manager was the one who gave me my order and he did have me look over the receipt to prove to me that the price was $28 for 3 rolls! I did appreciate that but when ordering ahead on the phone, its very frustrating to not have the correct updated proces for items. I would have changed my order if I knew thus would have been the final price.

Excellent selection of items and clearly a popular local place. Everything we had was well-prepared, and they even have some items that are rare in restaurants and are more typical of Japanese comfort foods (e.g. foods you'd see in a japanese home).

I've been to this establishment numerous times and always have great/friendly service and delicious food. The daikon soup with fried tofu is my go to dish.

Our daughter wanted sushi after another performance at the Dr. Phillips Center, so we returned to Bikkuri Sushi. There was plenty of parking on the west side of the building, so we headed upstairs. It was mid-afternoon, about 3:30 PM, so there was only one server working 3 tables. We started with 2 Miso Soups and one Ginger Salad, with water to drink. We ended up with about 48 pieces of Maki sushi, including an American Roll, a Mexican Roll, the Living Color Roll, a Volcano Deluxe Roll, California Roll, and our favorite, the Fatty Beef (wagyu) Roll! Everything was made fresh to order, and looked absolutely delightful. More important, everything tasted great. The rolls are very creative and well made. This was the first time I didn't order Nigiri; and, I didn't miss it. Including tax and tip (at 20%) we were out the door for about $35 per person as a couple of the rolls were a bit pricey; but, worth it!

Orlando best hidden gem we've been coming here for about 13 years and it brings it every time. The garlic roll. The white dragon. All of it. Lots of choices and everything is excellent quality and in great portions. For non sushi friends they have fried rice or noodle dishes and ramen or udon bowls. Plus we're here for the upstairs cool factor

Delicious food. I was surprised at the speed of service. The server went above and beyond. I went there alone for a late lunch and it was perfect. Highly recommend

I don't know where to begin. This pad Thai was a poor attempt at culinary improv. Please take this off the menu immediately. Just look at it! The manager can't be anymore selective at who he displays attention to. I guess he prefers the fairer complexion. My advice If you come here just order the appetizers and sushi. I blame myself for ordering a complete meal from here. The Jackie Rangoon was off the charts though. Forgot to mention the roach that didn't make it across the dinner floor. Good luck if you choose to eat here!

Went for Sunday lunch, wasn't too busy. Server was very friendly and funny, and service was pretty quick. Food was tasty hey, would definitely come back again, would like to try the happy hour which is 2 for 1 cocktails and $4 sushi rolls

I did not eat here. My review is based on them not having any combos or bento boxes ( besides lunch time) that would be suitable for someone eating alone.

Service and ambiance was good. I enjoyed the quiet area where I could converse with friends. Food was just ok. I ordered the spider roll (which is my favorite roll) and beef teriyaki dish. I was disappointed on the roll and the beef was a bit tough. While it was not bad, it wasn't great and probably would not order again. I ent for dinner so maybe lunch is different.

This place is absolutely crap. I got food poisoning last night from their sushi. Was on the toilet and nearly threw up multiple times. I called to get a refund because I was LITERALLY SICK and they said they will. Next day, they said they won't return my money. I'm gonna make sure this place crashes and burns. Don't. Go. Unless you wanna risk eating cheap ass food that makes you sick for days.

This place is all about the Value my sushi loving friends and not necessarily on the creativity or absolute freshness! However, I am a FAN of Bikkuri for several reasons. I like the upstairs lounge/dining area they got going on. As mentioned in previous reviews, be sure to grab a table by the window so you get some nice scenes of Colonial Ave. Also, it makes it feel more Urban which for me helps cause I like living in cities. Food: They have a ton of options! From Maki, Nigiri, Sashimi, and all those typical appetizers you would expect are here. Also, they have numerous noodle dishes available! That was such a high level explanation of the vastness of the menu, but what you should come away with is the VALUE. The sushi and all other items are, for the most part, very decently priced (especially if you like to eat at Kabooki, Shari, or even Oudon Thai). However, you're trading some level of freshness and creativity for the value. Don't get me wrong, I'm not for dropping lots of $$ frequently for the aforementioned venues, so this place fits in nicely when I'm looking for something downscale. Happy Hour: They boast even cheaper prices for happy hours which are during the weekdays. Check them out and enjoy! Bonus - this place has a bar with lots of options. Tl;Dr: Cheap drinks, sushi, and noodle dishes on a 2nd level lounge that is somewhat hipster.

Bikkuri is one of the coolest sushi restaurants in town with one of the best happy hours. This is my favorite spot to celebrate birthdays with friends! What makes this sushi spot interesting is the awesome location. It's on the second floor of a building overlooking Orlando area. The inside isn't super modern but I like the fun decor and lighting. Once we entered they were very busy because it was happy hour but they were able to accommodate our big group of friends. With a small space this can be challenging. Happy hour is from 5-7pm. 2-4-1 coctails, martinis,wine, beer and sake. They have really fun coctails, my favorite is their blue star. For sushi they have $1 Nigiri, $3-$6 rolls. We went on a Thursday so my friend got the loveboat for her birthday and it was 30% off. They have different specials every week day on top of their normal happy hour. Service here can be slow. We had to wave down our server a few times. I also hate how they bring out both your drinks at the same time and they bring out everyone's food at different times. The birthday girl ate last :(. It can be nice to share so that was inconvenient. But they were accommodating a group of 6. Overall you can't find this happy hour anywhere and it's a cool spot! Sometimes they play anime movies. For these events you wanna arrive early.

Three stars for okay sushi and okay service. We first ordered takoyaki as an appetizer. It was a good start to the meal, but there wasn't much octopus. But we waited a solid 10 minutes after finishing it before our sushi came, with only two other parties in the restaurant. We split the rainbow roll (krab roll with salmon, tuna, and shrimp around it) and the living color roll (escolar, salmon, and tuna). They were both fine. We used a restaurant.com coupon for $10 off a $20+ purchase, but happy hour, sushi specials, and weekly specials are all exempt from any coupon, which I didn't find out until after the meal our previous visit.

Ah Bikkuri Sushi. Also known as: "You know, that one sushi place on Colonial that's up on the 2nd floor of the building". I'll admit; it was shameless of me that after all the years of my having it bookmarked as a place to visit I still had not gone. I decided to finally change that fact and make it a point to go there come rain, or plague of locusts. I gathered a group of good friends who enjoy my enthusiasm for sushi and we arrive in time for a lunch feast. Initially it seems like the only way up is by stairs but they do have an elevator although... someone in your party would have to climb the stairs, talk to one of the staff in order to then get the elevator going. Come on, look at the bright side, at least you get a bit of cardio before your meal. So after your invigorating climb to your seat, you are rewarded with a fantastic view of Colonial drive and all the walking pedestrians below, and I would imagine that the view is probably that much better at night when all the street is lit up, but I digress. The menu is extensive, I mean very, very extensive. There are so many things to choose from that you really either need to have an idea of what you want beforehand or be prepared to devote some time to deciding from all the options. I personally am still undecided if this is a good thing or not, but I did find that the variety of their vegetarian options was extensive, and I was also very delighted to see they offer traditional style Japanese dishes like Oden. I honestly don't know of any other Japanese place in Orlando that even offers that. We are greeted by our waiter who was extremely helpful, and very courteous. We place our order and our drinks are brought out almost immediately after. I'm going to point out that their hot tea is excellent. You can taste that it's a good quality product and even the tea bag itself is different, its like a cloth teabag rather than just the standard paper ones you see. We ordered a variety of different foods (see pics posted). I thought they were all good, but that's about it. The tofu teriyaki I had was, in my opinion, under seasoned with the teriyaki sauce being the only saving grace. The vegetable karrokke while well seasoned and tasty didn't really have any vegetable other than potato. I think I found a pea at one point but that was it. My friends ordered teriyaki dishes too, one chicken and another shrimp and they really enjoyed theirs so maybe it's just the tofu one you have to be weary of which is a shame because there is a well known asian-fusian place not far from there that makes a crazy good tofu dish. My friends reported that the chicken dumplings were fantastic, and the sauce for them is equally delicious. You can sort of see a pattern emerging where it seems like their vegetarian items might not be as good as the other meat based items so take this review as you wish keeping in mind that - Service was great - Scenery and overall ambiance was nice - prices overall are good, and yes; I'd go back if I were out with friends who wanted to dine there.

They've seen better days. Used to be good but we've had enough Meh experiences to warrant this review. The only time we come now is when our out of town friends insist on it but from here on out, we'll not be joining them. There's so many choices nearby, why? With this last visit, the front of house was completely without hospitality while by contrast our server was sweet and attentive, to give credit where credit's due. It was also way too warm in there and we probably should have left for that alone; definitely uncomfortable until we were acclimated. All of our food was dumped at the same time, and was so fast, there's no way our sushi could have been fresh. I mean, I could have went to Publix for that. And why order apps if you're going to do that? Clear soup wasn't clear. Sushi was stuck to the plates. Beer was sour. Totally Meh. I don't see the value, either, they're not exactly cheap and we could have better spent our money elsewhere.
