The restaurant has a lovely, cozy vibe with tasteful decor and a great ambience perfect for a relaxed night out. We started with the tuna tartare and sweet potatoes, both of which were absolutely delicious. For mains, we had the black cod and steak; the cod was just okay, but the steak was solid. Cocktails were impressive and definitely a highlight. Service was decent, though not exceptional. Parking can be a bit tricky, and there weren’t any menu options for kids, so it’s better suited for adults. Overall, a great spot for good food and a great atmosphere.

Went for a birthday- we did the 4 course meal and had 1 cocktail (too sweet/not balanced) - several upcharges for options on the meal - total was $233 for 2 people. The start was good (tuna tartar) the second we had the gyoza (not great) and the chard cabbage (drowned in sauce- not great). Entree of Miso Cod hands down the best cod ever - wow. Delicious, delicate, and perfectly cooked. Dessert was beautifully presented, but the ube cheesecake was good, but again not great - I was expecting everything to be kind blowing at their price point. Excellent service and lovely atmosphere.

Fresh, tasty good food. Engaging waitress who knows her food. Came back a couple of years later during a shift change and construction. Waitress was kind but not overly attentive. Pasta salad was good but a little off seasoning wise. Calzone wasn’t soggy! Egglant sub was soggy and very little sauce or cheese. Flavor was good. The beef sub was really good. We’ll come back!

I came here for the first time a week ago. Everything was fresh. The sauce is very good. Today I tried two plain New York style cheese slices and they are very good. Definitely will keep coming back.

In no way does this orange chicken resemble the one on the websites page. There was almost no sauce making it dry and disgusting to eat as it just tasted like chicken with an orange after taste due to the orange slices as well as the chicken being very thin and having little to no meat. I am heavily dissatisfied with what I received and would not recommend eating here.

General Moe’s Chicken was good, had a great spice to it. However the wait for the food took entirely too long. I ordered at 12:08pm and did not get my food until 1:40pm, despite them telling me that it would be ready at 12:40pm. On top of that the chicken and broccoli was poorly packed in the wrong container and leaked garlic sauce through the carryout bag on to my car seat. Blaq Dragon needs to get some things figured out logistically before it can be a viable take-out option.

Been coming here for around 5 years and Jade Garden is easily my favorite Chinese place in Portage. You get a lot of food for the price, the food always tastes good, and it’s quick! The lady at the counter is always very quick and friendly also! There’s no dining in, only carry out - which doesn’t bother me but is worth noting.

Take out only. Nice Lady to take order, kind and polite. Pork Lo Mein was good. The Pork is delicious. Chicken Egg Foo Yung was good. Egg Rolls not so good. No Spring Rolls. Egg Drop Soup lacked flavor. Will try Fried Rice and Sesame Chicken with Chicken Rice Soup if we go back.

Was here last night for their Fat Tuesday buffet!!! First time I have ever been there the food was delicious!!!!! I lived in Louisiana for a few years and who ever made these dishes did an awesome job. Owners and waitresses are so friendly. I’m definitely gonna b back in thinking for St Patrick day party.

Can't say enough good things about this place Stopped by on a Monday, received the best service I could expect from Karen(I did apologize on behalf of the internet for ruining her name). She was awesome, not like a stereotypical Karen. Then to my surprise the dinner special it was fresh chicken strips for a dollar a piece I have been to the taphouse before, the food is great, their burgers are phenomenal, and they have prime rib and several options of seafood. Not going to lie, what I like best, it is rare to find a place where you can smoke after you eat Highly recommend if you want good food, full bar, pool table and darts, and GREAT service

Food is amazing here. “Chicken and mushroom hot pot rice” is worth the wait. The flavor is tastefully balanced with ginger, scallions and right amount of sauce, I.e. not too salty. On the other hand, the “sautéed pork strips with spicy sauce” is spicy enough. A perfect dish to have with white rice. I also order 2 dim sum items and they just make them right. Very pleasant experience here.

We had an exceptional experience with this Chinese restaurant! The Chicken Fried Rice and Sesame Chicken were delicious, each dish bursting with flavor, clearly prepared and packaged with great care. We skipped the Fried Chicken and Egg Roll on our second order as we didn't enjoy them the first time—the chicken was burnt, and the egg roll was dry. Although the Sesame Chicken was excellent, it came without rice. Fortunately, we had ordered the Chicken Fried Rice separately. We can't wait to visit in person and enjoy more of their fantastic food. Highly recommend!

Everything was so incredibly delicious. I still can't get over how good that bang bang chicken dirty rice was. The service was amazing! I went on a Thursday night, and the guys working there were super friendly and helpful! The vibe was cozy and laid back. I have nothing but great things to say about this restaurant. If you're deciding on where to go eat , just go here. You won't regret it 😊👍🏻

We had such an amazing experience at Shiso Crispy. Not only was the food phenomenal, but the worker Mike that helped us was extremely kind and patient with us, answering all of our questions and giving us great recommendations. Our favorite thing was absolutely the lobster rangoons. They are a must get. We also got the bang bang chicken and ahi tuna dirty rices and both were incredible and the portions were so filling! You definitely get your bang for your buck here. The short rib bao buns were some of the best bao buns we’ve ever had as well. All in all this place is a must for anyone looking for great food with great staff and a vibey atmosphere and we will absolutely be returning again!

It’s been a while since I’ve stopped in for lunch on a whim, but was craving Thai and luckily the parking gods opened a spot for me after driving around for 10 mins. Central Avenue needs more parking but I digress. As soon as I walked in, I was quickly seated and brought water, clear broth soup w/ rice and fried garlic w/ scallions(I honestly could eat a large bowl of that) and a crisp spring roll w/ a sweet ish orange duck sauce before ordering. I enjoyed a chicken pad Thai(the best in the city!) w/ a side of jasmine rice for an extra fee. The lunch specials are large and filling, $12.95, worth it. Servers are friendly, food comes out quick and fresh.

9 Bangkok Thai and Sushi has one of only 3 “Destination” sushi rolls which I have not seen anywhere else. “The St. Pete Roll” is amazing. Don’t try to bite a piece in half. Put the whole piece in your mouth and let it wash over you. My pics can’t do it justice. I am posting pics of the menu because it’s not available online unless you open a delivery service app.

I love that they moved to Grand Central. They have more space, inside and out, and food/drink options. One of our favorite spots to grab a quick and delicious meal, or stop by for a boba on the go. The staff are all friendly and attentive. Their lunch menu is a great deal and portioned just right to satisfy you. They have vegetarian selections, sushi, Thai, Laotian dishes. Parking is limited, street only. I highly recommend checking them out if you haven’t!

This was an excellent choice. I stumbled upon this place during a lunch break and was pleasantly surprised. The bar service was phenomenal—Kim was funny, attentive, and very helpful. The food arrived quickly, looked great, and was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere was inviting, and everyone seemed to be having a good time. I enjoyed the medium lunch special and a Bobba Thai Tea. My total bill was around $23, which is a great value. I'll definitely be back.

I have enjoyed lunch here a number of times. I find this is a location that I can even enjoy when dining alone! The large screen televisions play video of Asian street food being prepared. I also like to sit at the bar and watch the chefs create the variety of dishes. The menu includes popular dishes from China, Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines…all delicious! I love the soup dumplings and all of the curries! The Thai tea is delicious!

Nice restaurant with decent food. However, I went with my friend who is vegetarian and she was pretty shocked to see lack of options for her. I hope to see vegetable broth here in the future! Other then that, pretty good.

For over a year, we’ve been ordering the same sushi every month—avocado sushi. As vegans, we absolutely love it! The quality is always fresh, and the flavors are spot on. The staff is also amazing; the lady taking our orders knows exactly what we want before we even say it. Highly recommend if you’re looking for delicious vegan sushi!”

Tried this place out for the first time today and it was delicious and the staff was so kind! The quality of the sushi is very good and you cant beat the prices. Definitely my new go to 😊

I've been here for over 30 years. The food is always delicious and fresh. Recommend the fried chicken wings, Singapore rice noodles and fried rice.

China Sky is the only Chinese restaurant I order from for over thirty years. Fresh chicken wings and shrimp fried rice that I've returned to many times. Also the best steak and cheese subs in the town. Unfortunately they don't deliver food, you can only get food delivered through Uber eat, DoorDash and Grubhub. I usually order by phone and then pick it up.
