"Solid portions and fresh tasting ingredients. Spicy Tuna Roll had good spicy flavor and the 49ers had fresh salmon with zesty lemon. Would try again "
"I haven’t been inside this restaurant myself, but I’ve ordered from them several times on DoorDash. I tried their Lion King Roll and Hotel California Roll, and both were absolutely delicious. Even though takeout doesn’t have the same freshness as dining in, the sashimi was still tender, flavorful, and free of any fishy taste. The salmon’s rich flavor combined with the chewy sushi rice completely satisfied my hunger for the whole day. The only downside is that it’s a bit pricey, but the food is truly tasty and worth recommending! 我本人沒有進去過這家店,但是我連續幾次點了他們家的DoorDash,我嘗試了他們家的Lion King Roll和Hotel California Roll都非常的好吃,即便外帶已經沒有堂食的新鮮,但是生魚片依舊是非常的香嫩沒有腥味,加上鮭魚🍣的香味,搭配壽司米飯Q彈,讓我一整天的飢餓都能從中滿足。唯一缺點是有一點貴,但是料理是真的好吃,值得推薦!"

"Legit one of the best ramen places in the East Bay and a go-to nowadays, especially enjoy the SPICY Miso Butter Corn Ramen. Servings are pretty generous overall and the quality of the ingredients is top tier. "
"HINODEYA Ramen flavor was okay, just more salty than I'd like, so I've had better. The Beef Bowl and Spicy Pork Bowl were super tiny. They were like kid sized bowls, not worth the money, in my opinion. The amount of meat to rice ration was also sad. It's like the size of a bowl you'd put miso soup in. At least the ramen bowls were average size, but again the amount of meat is lacking. Chicken Karaage was overcooked and mostly bready, not enough chicken. Not sure if it's any better if we were to eat in, but definitely won't be doing delivery again. "

"Good and...okay. Double Hamachi was delicious. But the Miso Soup was way too salty, plus it had basically no tofu. Each tofu piece was smaller than my pinky nail, and there couldn't have been more than 3 pieces. I'm so tired of places skimping on the tofu and the seaweed, thinking we don't notice. We do."

"I ordered the Medium Bowl this afternoon. Somehow, I’m very upset with its quantity that I received this time. I used to order the Medium Bowl all the time, and they usually fill up the entire bowl. However, today, I received ALOT LESS QUANTITY than usual, and still pay the same amount. First of all, the brown rice were little soggy and stuck together, not fresh at all. Then, the zucchini noodles were only a few pieces inside… and it were broken into short piece. I believe its not fresh either. Then, I always ask for extra corns, green onions, and cucumbers, but they did not gave me any today. (They usually fill up the bowl or gave me another small cup with it.)"
