They serve a lot of food on the dinner menu. I had the bento box which had raw whitefish, salmon, tuna and swordfish with wasabi and ginger. There was tempura shrimp, sashimi rice balls, a salad with ginger dressing, and spicey tuna sushi, gyoza and soup dumplings. The bento is a shareable dish. My son ate the ramen and It was so flavorful and plentiful. My husband had the hibachi with cubed steak served with miso soup and a good sized salad. He said it was delicious. We also had bao! They were so fluffy and the pork belly had a sweet flavor. We are going back! The service was exceptional. Our waiter helped us with decisions. They serve all types of tea and soft drinks. The ambiance was serene and clean, beautiful place! Great place to bring your family and friends. Bon apetito!

$75 for a couples combo with Lobster & Jumbo Shrimp Fried Rice Dinner plus scallops (hibachi) The soup was delicious! Wonderful ginger salad & egg rolls too. Much more affordable lunches & dinners if you don't want lobster.

We had the Malaysian seafood ramen and Roti canai. The seafood ramen was so delicious and had lots of seafood in it, shrimp, scallop, calamari and dumpling. Roti canai while it's delicious, the sauce it's too runny. The sauce is supposed to be creamier thicker sauce.

Went here on a whim and we were so impressed. The inside is very nice and decorated nicely. The wait staff was very accommodating and nice. It was busy when we went and the staff was open with us and told us that it would take some time for our food to come out, and it was worth the wait. We got the ramen and sushi. We recommend the volcano roll and samurai roll. Food was delicious and tasted authentic.

I'm always skeptical when meeting friends at a restaurant without checking it out first but this place was great. They had an extensive sushi menu which looked really good but I can never pass on a ramen. It had some heat but was really good with a coconut type broth, chicken, and ramen noodles. It was exactly what I wanted. The flavoring was really well balanced, the noodles were cooked well, and it was just a great lunch. I also ordered the "soup" dumplings but quite honestly was too full to enjoy them.
