"Grilled chicken, steamed broccoli and garlic mashed potatoes. This was the best meal I've had in a long time! Chicken really moist. Generous portions...enough for me to have half tomorrow. I will be ordering this often! Reasonably priced too."
"That was the tiniest $24 Sirloin steak I have ever paid for. Half of it was gristly so I got even less. Super small portions and poor quality food for the price. Will not order from Applebee's again! It was also super slow!"

"Biscuit 'N' Gravy™ was not good. the biscuit was still warm but the gravy was cold and watered down. not sure how one is cold and the other isn't when they're in the same container unless they packed it cold. the Hand-Crafted Strawberry Lemonade was no better than a powdered juice mix and VERY small."
"everything tasted old sort of stale or had very clearly been sitting out for much longer than normal there was literally four waffle fries which actually ended up being okay because they were horrible and hard. there was a very tiny piece of tomato and one small folded up warm piece of lettuce on my chicken sandwich which was actually pretty impressive because it still didn't manage to cover the 3rd of the sandwich button that actually had a little bit of chicken in it."

"Every time I visit Tokyo Tower I'm constantly amazed at the quality, portions, and fresh delicious food...my only wish is that they forever remain the same no matter how popular they might get ♥️ L2. Squid Salad was a new delight along with the P1. House Wonton Soup (Bowl) (you get more than your money's worth there 😉)! R24. Spider Roll , 24. Unagi Don , and 16. Mussel Shooter (2) (Spicy)* are always a "must have" in the household and definitely something worth trying at least once. Thank you and God Bless America on this 250th anniversary 🇱🇷"
"First of all, I just wanted to say thank you to Tokyo Tower Japanese Sushi for being on Door Dash; otherwise I may not have ever had the opportunity to try them. This restaurant absolutely blew my mind in regards to portions, freshness, and absolute deliciousness! Everything that I had was absolutely amazing from the R24. Spider Roll , 24.Unagi Don , 7.Fried Crab Meat Strips(6)(Spicy) , to perhaps the best part of the 16.Mussel Shooter(2)(Spicy)* . They've definitely found their new regular customer here and I can't wait to try the other items on menu. I honestly cannot highly recommend this restaurant enough 👍 A MUST TRY for all Sushi lover's. Condiments, utensils, and even fortune cookies were included. 10/10 🏆"

"Vietnamese Egg Roll and Vietnamese Spring Roll tasted awful. I would never buy these again. Egg roll was burnt, very small for price. Spring roll was poor quality. Yellow lettuce, 2 small rubbery bland shrimp inside and potentially expired bean sprouts. Sauces for both were not appealing either. Total waste of money."

"My continuous favorite place to indulge in sushi! The food is always fresh and prepared in the utmost care. You will always be treated well here, and all the staff are amazing. Shouting out Kyle again. If you ever have the time to stop by in person, you'll be in amazing hands! My go to is definitely the Mars Roll and it's arguably better than Osaka's! The Oreo Cheesecake is also to die for, so try that as well. :D"

"Absolutely packed with food, had lunch and dinner. Full big nuggets of D. General Tsao's Chicken, not ends and bits like you get from the panda. Egg fried crispy golden brown, perfectly. No burns, cooked all the way through. Anywhere that serves good egg drop soup is usual a safe bet. Either today was a good day, or these people are in it for the love of cooking. Thanks for an awesome meal guys."
