Maneki Neko Japanese Restaurant

I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant! They undoubtedly offer the best ramen in the area, and the creative desserts like the raindrop mochi are a must-try. The service was excellent, and the cozy atmosphere added to the overall dining experience. The only minor issue was that the seating was tight, and it was difficult to have a private conversation at my table. However, that didn't take away from the overall experience, and I would love to go back and try more dishes.

One of the best restaurants that I been to! A cozy place with good service, clean and very yummy food. We try California rolls and tempura ice cream the tempura was just ok too soft for my liking, I Like more crunchy, but the rest of the food was delicious. The service was exceptional, except for a lady who helped us at the start, I told her that was our first time there and that we need time to check the menu, but she come every second to ask if we are ready. That irritated me cause I come to a restaurant to relax not to be rush by the server, then the young lady took our order and everything was fine. Everyone is nice there except that lady. I would will back every time that I have a chance.

Overall a mixed bag, with some great and some not so great dishes. The katsu curry was excellent. The curry had a good amount of meat in it (in addition to the katsu), which I thought was excessive- but the dish was still delicious. The sushi was not great. It did not seem very fresh. Texture was a little off. Pork belly appetizer was decent. I also had Tonkotsu ramen, which wasn’t on the menu, but our waitress said that they had it. It was pretty good. The noodles were outstanding, the chashu pork was above average, and the broth was ok- not great. Service was excellent, and the meal was enjoyable, but the food was hit and miss for me.

This is hands-down the best sushi ever. Their fish is fresh and tastes different (in a good way) than anywhere else. The service is always very thoughtful in where they seat you, when they bring out the food, and asking you what you'd like. Above and beyond. The atmosphere, is very peaceful and relaxing. A fantastic place for lunch or dinner. I wouldn't label this place as a "nice" restaurant, it's definitely more "mom and pop", but that's not at all a bad thing, it's just not flashy, certainly no flaming cocktails or waiters in suits. Again, not at all a bad thing

What an awesome place to have nearby. I’m a big fan of traditional Japanese sushi - not the fried, mayo and sugar sauce coated creations so common now. If you also share a love for simple, clean sushi made with very high quality ingredients by a chef who respects tradition, go here! On top of it all they are super friendly and nice. Chef Tao came out and played with my daughter at one point which was great. Update: after 6 months living in the area now, I’ve probably been here 15 times. It’s always good. It’s not the fanciest place, but it just feels comfy and welcoming, and the food is just awesome especially for the price. If you want great authentic Japanese food without all the fuss, come here!

I was first recommended this place by friend, who called it one of the most authentic Japanese restaurants in the area. The atmosphere upon entering is very homey, this place is very much a mom and pop's hole in the wall. When I went on a Saturday afternoon, it was fairly empty. We ordered a caterpillar roll, donburi, okonomiya, agedashi tofu, and mango sticky rice. The okonomiya was tasty and filling. The agedashi tofu was fresh and the dashi sauce was so good, I could have just slurped it on its own. The donburi portion was enough to fill two people. The roll itself was only alright to me, I've had better, but I also did not get the chance try the other rolls or sashimi, so I would not discount the place entirely. The avocado on the roll was very fresh. The mango sticky rice came as a very big portion as well, and the fruit was just right. Be sure to check this place out for some homey fare.

Ordered for take out. I got the chirashi bowl. The salmon and egg were good but the tuna was sinewy and yellowtail smelled fishy. I was surprised by the amount of rice given for the 4pc tempura bento box. Expensive lunch but average meal.

They have the best sushi special around. If you like nigiri sushi 🍣 go Monday through Thursday before 7pm. Amazing balance of quality and cost.
