Tokyo Express

Restaurant

👍👍 It's a tiny little place with amazing food. After a rude experience at the pour house I decided to eat here instead. I am so glad I did. The food was delicious, the staff was amazing, and the prices were great. I got the xoxo roll, spicy tuna roll, and cream cheese wanton for about 27 dollars....

Tenji Sushi

Japanese restaurant

👍👍 Don't let the exterior second guess eating here. The food was delicious and the inside updated. I think maybe it's an old Wendy's drive thru but they did excellent inside. They have the button on the table to call your server but they were very attentive already. We had a huge sushi boat with fish...

Genki Ramen

👍 The service is good. The food is good. The place is clean. However, there were 3 or 4 people who cooked, and i felt they were watching us - not only our table, but they watched others too. We came around 5pm. The tables were full - this is the first time that i felt being watched while eating by the...

👍 Absolutely great bang for your buck. Lunch deal is 13 dollars, drink included and unlimited buffet. Only one or two items not great, every single other item there was so good! The bite sized crab rangoons go crazy, so do the little fried corn nuggets. The chicken on a stick is so smoky and juicy. Th...

👍👍 I enjoyed eating the Dirty Mouth appetizer, Kiss of Fire and Atomic Bomb sushi rolls. I was expecting the Dirty Mouth appetizer to be spicy, but instead it was mild but chock full of great flavors. The crab and the flavor from jalapeno was mild yet flavorful, and had a crispy coating and perfect dip...

Little Tokyo Japanese Restaurant

Authentic Japanese restaurant

👍👍 They are very accommodating and kind here. The food is great, and I would recommend to not get a lot of fried things in the same meal as they are kind of heavy on it. The fried rice tastes great but it’s oily so I don’t prefer to eat it with something deep fried. Everything tastes great here and I’v...
