If you love Korean corn dogs you have to stop here! I come by here to study sometimes because the atmosphere is quiet and it’s a cute shop. The workers here are extremely friendly and welcoming and I’ve never had a bad experience coming here. If you’re a fan of taro milk tea I would definitely recommend coming here. Their tapioca is perfectly soft and not overly chewy.

Wednesday evening was our first time visiting this local sandwich shop since a co-worker recommended it. We ordered our food using 1 of the 2 quick order kiosks. We ordered 2 shredded chicken croissants without the sauce, 1 Thai tea 25% sweetness, 1 Taro tea 25% sweetness, and egg rolls. It was really busy (about 20 people already in the restaurant waiting for their food when we walked in), and more people were coming in, so service was expectedly slow. It took about 20 minutes for the egg rolls to be ready, and that was provided first (my husband was confused since he thought the rest of the order was forgotten, but unlike other restaurants' take out, Paris Banh Mi will sporadically give you what's ready from the order and not the whole order all at once). The teas and croissant sandwiches were ready after another 15 or so minutes. The order was correct, and the egg rolls were excellent. The sandwiches were a bit on the oily side for us (maybe it's the butter?), so it wasn't as enjoyable as it could've been. I liked my taro tea, but my husband said that his Thai tea tasted watered down compared to my tea. Not sure we'll have the sandwiches again. Might be back for more of the delicious egg rolls 👏 Hope they can figure out a more efficient way to handle takeout orders since giving people parts of their orders can be confusing and while we were there, others were also mystified at first when only their drinks or appetizers were given to them without the cashier saying it was only part of an order. Side note: parking here is very limited during dinnertime and I suggest walking here vs. driving. Also, during our visit, there was only 1 cashier taking / handing out orders so it wasn't enough staff to handle that amount of people. We felt bad for the person since they also seemed frazzled. Thankfully, there were 2 other employees that walked in just as we were getting the last parts of our order so maybe the short staff issue was just our luck that visit.

Amazing dinner tonight! There were four of us this evening. We ordered several things off the menu and split the bill. That way we were able to try a variety of items. The fried chicken was amazing! There was also a pork dish that came out sizzling in a cast iron that was soooo good! I sadly forget the name of it. It was in a mildly spicy sauce. The popcorn chicken, and sweet and sour pork were also a couple favorites. So many good things. We were in Gainesville visiting my daughter at UF. Will make this a regular stop when we come up. They also have a couple of Karaoke rooms available for rent as well. I think it was a private room for 35 a room.

I’ve come here twice now and it was amazing both times! The staff is extremely friendly and soooo nice. The first time I went here, they recommended the rose tteokbokki and it was so tasty. If you come here I 100% recommend getting the beef bulgogi because this is the most flavorful bulgogi I’ve had at a restaurant to date. Their japchae is also extremely good and I recommend getting it. If you like spicy food, definitely get the Korean Fried Chicken, but be warned, the portion size could literally feed a family of 8.

Our party of 5 which included a child under 5 had a great experience. We were greeted and sat immediately. The chef was very interactive and the food was perfect.

Birthday Dinner & A Show We had a large party to celebrate a birthday. Dinner was excellent. Chef Tommy delivered not only a delicious meal but a wonderful show! Our party varied in ages and everyone enjoyed the show. We had some of everything and plenty of it filet mignon, chicken, shrimp, scallops, salmon, veggies, noodles and rice. This was my first time and I very much enjoyed it and will be back. For large parties some advice Yamato will not seat you until every guest has arrived. Thank You for a wonderful dinner for our family and friends.

I ordered online through toast and when I get there for my order, I checked my order and I was missing a few items so I told them what items I was missing. They went on to tell me that I got what I paid for and they weren't adding anything else to my order. I showed them my online receipt which showed the discrepancy on my order. They still didn't complete my order and cursed me. At this point I just asked for a refund. They refused to refund me and told me to call toast to receive my refund. I called toast and they told me that the restaurant is responsible for the refund. The restaurant wasn't honest with me about the refund nor did they get my order correct. Now I'm out of $44. I just want people to be aware of the game being played between this restaurant and toast. If you ever want a refund from this place and you ordered online, the store is responsible for issuing your refund not toast. This was my experience. I'll NEVER order from here again!

Their garlic seafood trays are delicious. And the prices are good. Make sure you ask them to warm it up for you.

Kalbi was pretty darn good. Staff are fast and friendly. Figured I’d post the menu too for those of you who’d like to see. My only gripe with Momo is that sometimes their ice water tastes like butt. Otherwise, great lil place to get some Korean, sushi, and banchan. Go get you some!

I am Korean. While traveling by car from Georgia to Miami, I Googled a Korean restaurant and visited it. 1. To Koreans It's completely Americanized fake Korean food. It's so sweet and laced with sugar that it will spike your blood sugar. No Kimchi, no side dishes. 2. For non-Koreans Korean food is very healthy and is famous for its wide selection of Kimchi and other free side dishes. This restaurant claims to be a Korean restaurant, but they don't serve any side dishes or even kimchi. And too much sugar is harming the reputation of Korean food, which is famous for being healthy. 3. Overall evaluation First, if this is your first Korean food, don't ever think those are Korean food. Korean food is completely different. Go to any Korea town in Duluth GA and try any food there. And then you understand why I am so upset. Second, the price is very expensive. The grilled ribs are $24. This is a really expensive and too little food for the price. Third, the quality of food also has an issue. My ribs weren't even grilled properly. Look at the picture. Fourth, Momoyaki is a Japanese restaurant name. They say it's a Korean restaurant, but even the name isn't Korean. 4. To the owner I believe you are Korean, so I would like to ask that you serve authentic Korean food with pride. I give this place 2 stars because of the friendliness of the staff. Without them, definitely 1 start.

Didn’t expect to find such high quality food in a college town! Blue fin o-toro, uni, Fargo salmon, truffle…. Menu is innovative with a wide range of flavors. Staffs are friendly and helpful. Ambience is posh and inviting. Chu chu lobster, uni bomb, sweet 16 and crispy bok choy are some of my favorites. Loved this restaurant so much that after Thursday’s dinner, we returned on Saturday for lunch. If you are in Gainesville and you love Japanese food, Arashi Yama is place not to be missed!

The presentation of the hamachi toro was so beautiful and tasted wonderful. The best fish I’ve had in Gainesville by far. Don’t waste your time downtown. From the silverware and plating to the beautiful fish lanterns, we enjoy this spot very much. 10/10 recommend for date night or family night!

All the food was delicious, it is an exquisite experience, the only one in Gainesville, I recommend it 100%

Never had Peruvian food before and we saw this place and wanted to give it a try. The whole vibe is welcoming and comforting. You can tell it’s a mom and pop restaurant. The lady at the front was super nice and gave us free samples of the Chicha Morada drink; which, btw was delicious. My boyfriend ordered Pollo a la Brasa quarter chicken and I ordered tamales and tres leches. Something on the lighter side for us. Pollo was flavorful, fragrant and had a smoky finish. The homemade sauces were really good too but I didn’t know their names. Tamales reminded me of the ones that my old coworker made for me. Also flavorful and it was moist. Juicy, not dry at all. All in all, this whole lunch we had was made with love. Like going to your grandma’s for lunch. You have to be mindful that other cultures have different views on portions and plating. You can’t come in here expecting American portions. You’re spoiled for that. I’ve read some of the reviews here and it seems people just wanted to complain just to complain. Give this restaurant a try before making assumptions.

I WOULD NOT recommend coming here. I thought they have high reviews and the atmosphere/service is friendly, but it is NOT good. The pork bun we ordered was overly sauced. All you could taste is the sauce and nothing else. The Okonomiyaki is kinda the best from the entire order. The takoyaki is alright. Only one small piece of octopus and all batter. The ramen broth lack flavor and pork has good char, but noflavor. The sushi was DISAPPOINTING. The texture of the sushi is rubbery, dry, and fishy. The yellowtail was extra fishy! The manager told the waitress that they get fresh sushi every 2 days, but it’s tasted super bad. We ate half of what we ordered and she ended up giving us 10% off from every sushi we ordered, even tho we didn’t eat HALF of the sushi. I usually will eat all of the sushi even if it’s not that good, but NOT this one. Also, their “Kinya Roll” is the worse. There’s salmon, tuna, tobiko, tempura shrimp, avocados, and two different sauces is too much going on. Just horrible. I love the waitress, she’s super nice and friendly. I love the decor, but the food is not it.

Kinya Ramen never fails. Fresh, well cooked, well prepared, well presented, and hot. Love treating myself to their ramen, goyza and spring rolls. This time we shared their Ocean Dream Roll, again superbly made and tasty! Service was friendly and professional. Excellent!

The food is EXCELLENT!! Teriyaki chicken was fresh, and good size portion for the cost. The sushi was fresh, and tasted amazing!! Also I got 2 rolls for under $12 that I usually get at Bento and are $12 EACH!! I’m obsessed with this place! The customer service was also great and my food was packed very well with all the condiments I requested!!

Friendly service and delicious. A work catering introduced me to them and now the second time its just as good. I love that the price is amazing and the dishes are simple yet full of flavor you’d come to expect from good teriyaki. 10/10 sauce

I attended the Christmas Eve chef tasting experience and I must say that was the best dining experience I have ever had. (And I have been to plenty of places, restaurants etc). For private reasons I won’t display the photos of each courses, but if you attend such experience here you will receive surprises after surprises. Everything is exquisite from start to finish. They went above and beyond to deliver an unforgettable fine dining experience.

Dining at Sensei Asian Bistro was an extraordinary experience. The food was nothing short of exceptional, with each dish bursting with incredible flavors and impeccable presentation. Every bite was a delight, showcasing the chef's mastery and creativity. The service was equally outstanding. The staff was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure a memorable dining experience. Their knowledge of the menu and thoughtful recommendations truly enhanced our visit. Overall, Sensei Asian Bistro blew my mind. It was one of the greatest dining experiences I've ever had, and I can't recommend it highly enough. If you're looking for a top-notch meal with superb service, this is the place to go.

Vietnamese noodle soup and Green Curry with pork and rice were absolutely outstanding! I ordered both Thai Hot and was happy with the spice level. I eat spice or hot sauce on everything I consume. So, for me Thai Hot was perfect. Made my sinuses run and my face flush with red. I arrived shortly after opening about 11:30am and I was the only one dinning in. My server was perfectly attentive. After taking my order and delivering my food and beverage she only stopped by my table to take away used dishes. If I needed something it would have been easy to get her attention. The atmosphere is nothing special but adequate and comfortable for anything informal. One negative I could see would be the lack of parking on premises. I pulled off into the grass in front which worked and was where others have parked before me. Don’t be scared by the location or the exterior look. Go in and give it a try. You won’t be disappointed in the food!

We were traveling and craving good Thai food. Their reviews drew us in. Red curry was delicious, I had it with shrimp, medium hot wasn't really hot. Pad Thai was just ok, hubby said it was missing something but he ate it up! The steamed dumplings and crab ragoons were yummy. Service was good. There was a very odd, strong smell when we walked in, so strong we almost left because of it. Their bathroom needs a good cleaning. If I had seen it before we sat down, I would have left. :(

Erin took wonderful care of us during this trip to Midtown Bento. She made sure our food came out fresh and quick, and she pointed out the combo meal to save me money. Kaching!

I had an outstanding experience at Bento in Gainesville, and I can't recommend it enough! From the moment I walked in, Erin provided exceptional service that truly made the meal unforgettable. She was friendly, attentive, and made great recommendations from the menu. Her knowledge of the dishes was impressive, and she went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, but Erin's hospitality was definitely the highlight of the visit. If you’re looking for fantastic food and even better service, make sure to ask for Erin!
