When I walked in, the first thing I heard was the waitresses yelling at each other in Chinese. I immediately began to think that lunch was gonna be a disaster, but in all honesty, it really wasnt bad. They had a white board with specials, and I ordered the Kani (Crab) Ramen. Apparently, all the noodle dishes come with a bowl of fried rice. That was kinda weird, but Im not gonna turn down extra food. The fried rice was pretty plain with just some chicken, eggs, and green onions in it. There wasnt any wok hei or anything interesting, but its edible. The ramen was actually better than I expected. The first thing I noticed was my egg. I have no idea what happened, but it was some sort of freaky mutant egg. The yolk was out of place and was nudged into the upper tip. It was overcooked but looked kinda cool actually. I think they said the broth was a sparerib soup base. It wasnt as rich or creamy as real tonkotsu broth, but I liked that it was salty enough. The noodles were firm, but the crab (I think it was snow crab) got a little overwhelmed by the heavy ramen. Thats mostly my fault, though. Thinking back on it, I dunno why I thought crab was a good idea. At least it wasnt imitation crab meat. I didnt try any sushi, but the ramen really wasnt the worst thing in the world.

Typical Chinese fake sushi. The quality is not much better than the buffet Moonstar in Daly City. You can order in Chinese. That is not what earned it a star review. Here is my experience. Came here on Sunday 8/18 at noon. 1. Sat us down at a wet dirty table where we have to ask for the table to be cleaned. 2. The backs of the chairs are right next to the person behind you. Expect a lot bumps while eating your meal. I felt like I was at a chinese wedding banquet where they seat 10 people to a tiny little table. They dont care about customer experience. 3. My sushi roll never came but we were charged for it. I didnt even bother complaining and just paid it. Who cares. Im not coming back. 4. The quality is, lets say, edible. Nothing good. Fish and meats are all frozen and I can taste it. This place is shady and ran by imbeciles.

Loved the Tonkatsu Benito box! My boyfriend ordered the Chicken Kare, the portion was huge, he gave it a 3.5 stars. My mom ordered the Grilled Salmon Benito box - her long time favorite, always a 5-star. Service was Ok; the staff knows what theyre doing but not as friendly. Place was clean. Parking around peak hours is somewhat aggravating. All in all, Id give them 3.5 stars. Well come back and try other things on the menu.

I personally would not go back, but its got a great menu. The one thing that upset me was paying the bill. I was going to tip with cash, but when I paid with a card and had already signed it the server brings it back and tells me to add the tip to the check. Thats just my experience there. Hopefully everyone else can still enjoy the menu items.

とんこつチャーシューラーメンを注文。チャーハンつき。見た目はまさしく日本料理、しっかりしている。ただ、味にコクがない。日本の職人ではないのかも。

This is one of my favorite spots in San Bruno.the sushi is unique and delicious, the people are fantastic and its great to finally have a neighborhood spot for good sushi. I actually went there 3 times in one week..Im hooked.

Little Hole in the wall for good eats. A bit run down but the food was good and portions where satisfying 50bucks for 3 large sake, couple of rolls and sashimi not a bad spread.

I ordered the Katsu Kare Don (curry tonkatsu) for ~$7 and enjoyed it. Though its not gourmet, the flavor and portion size was excellent for the price!

Food is good and served very quickly. Large tv behind the bar. Feels a bit run down and the servers are not very personable.
