Dining in is also a great experience. I typically order sushi along with one of their main dishes. The garlic beef and Singapore street noodles are two of my favorites, although I haven't tried everything on the menu... yet!

The server kept watching me from a distance, which made me uncomfortable while I was trying to enjoy my meal. Additionally, he wasn't very friendly and leaned over my food too much when refilling my drink.

If the prices were comparable to typical takeout, I would rate it four and a half stars. However, the high price point really affects my overall rating, so I would give it three stars for its value and experience.

The prices are reasonable, the service is fast, and the staff are very friendly. We started with the Seafood Martini—tuna, salmon, whitefish, and cucumber served with wasabi lime juice in a martini glass—and even my 9-year-old niece enjoyed it. My boyfriend had the Chicken Teriyaki, which came with sautéed onions, sesame seeds, and rice, and it was delicious. We shared the Wonton Soup for two, filled with baby corn, mushrooms, four wontons, shrimp, chicken, and broccoli. I had the Baked Avocado stuffed with crab and Masato, topped with caviar, which is one of my favorites. We try to visit once a month.

On our recent lunch visit, we were seated, ordered, and finished in just 45 minutes, even with some time to look over the menu! The food was delicious—while it tends to cater to mainstream American tastes with a focus on sweeter flavors, it was still very enjoyable. The only downside is that their prices have increased significantly in the past year; we ended up spending nearly $20 per person, which feels steep for lunch.
