I’m on my deathbed from mercury poisoning because I couldn’t stop eating spicy tuna at plum tree. They always say that on your deathbed, you regret not spending enough time with your family. I regret not spending enough time with the plum tree staff. If I could do it again I would, but I can’t. I’ll be dead by morning.

If you have a hankering for Japanese bento (lunch box) food, Plum Tree is barely OK . It 's conveniently located just steps from Cornell University 's campus. Service was fast attentive. However, the bento box lunch was blander than at any other Japanese restaurant I have visited. For lunch, I had the Chicken Tonkatsu (chicken strips fried in panko crumb batter) w plum sauce delicious. But the accompaniments (cold under salted edamame; meh California roll; boring house salad dumplings) were all so flavorless. At $14.95, the price was a bit too high. Interior decor also needs help: The burgundy booth seats, crimson painted walls salmon colored floor tiles sorely assault the eyes do not match. Tone it down. So, one star for atmosphere.

We went to Plum Tree Restaurant today for the first time. The food was so delicious. The service was great as well. I highly recommend it. I will definitely come here more often as there are so many dishes to enjoy! Vegetarian options: We took lunch meals but I don't remember the names

I ordered the gyozas along with two sides of rice. The gyozas were absolutely delicious, although the sauce was a bit too sour for my taste. Fortunately, I had some dumpling sauce at home that I was able to use instead. The portions of rice were quite generous, so I could have easily gotten by with just one side. I'll definitely be returning, and I'll be sure to have my dumpling sauce ready, as these gyozas were among the best I've ever tasted!

Very average. Food is definitely overpriced and the quality is not there. I remember getting two sushi rolls and being hungry at the end of it because they were just so small. Only reason why this place still exists is because of sake bombing. It helps that they never ID too, so I actually recommend it for sake bombing (although four seasons is probably better).

Food was just okay, but overpriced for the quality of food. The raw fish over the sushi was very thin and not fresh, and rice was too dry and firm. We ordered a beef sukiyaki which was not authentic and much more like a beef udon. We 3 people, spent $165, very disappointed.

This sushi is disgusting. When did spicy salmon/tuna rolls become this weird mashed up paste?? Take the 10 seconds to slice some fresh fish and toss it with siracha. Its not hard or too costly you 're sacrificing any sense of quality for cheapness/laziness. Also since when is it ok for any restaurant to sell sushi rice that 's rubbery? This is sad and unacceptable.

Absolutely delicious Japanese food. I had Yaki-Udon with chicken I loved and definitely recommend! I heard that bombs here are worth the attempt! I also ordered a wrong soup, I personally am not a fan of them, but that was pale. Sashimi plate was fresh, it had 5 types of meat and I thought the amount was decent. The salmon definitely recommend here.

It is a very good lunch choice in this area. I will come to have dinner next time. I want to try more food. I think the price is fair, most food was raised their price.
