Started about 7:30 on December 29th. The atmosphere is nice, well decorated and appealing although the spot lighting a bit harsh. The host staff was present and timely although a bit surely in her self presentation (acted as if she didnt want to be there). Sat in the bar area, which is very loud, could use far more sound dampening. Ordered Crabbycakes and Mean Korean Burger and a couple of beers. The Crabby Patties tasty, but lukewarm as served. The Korean burger was hefty and tasty, but seemed to lake the Korean spice I was hoping for. As for the beer, the Blue Moon came as expected in a weizen glass (14 oz imitating a full pint). As for the serving of Arrogant Bastard (a west coast amber ale) at $7, was served in a "less than a pint" pint glass, 12 oz to be accurate and the most disturbing thing was that the mini pint serving was barely 3/4 full if that. So I paid $7 for less than a bottles worth of beer. That was disappointing. All-in-all, the place has a nice feel, the crowd a bit blue collar, the food creative and mostly well presented, the staff mostly professional and underserves the alcoholic beverages. Its a good chance that the Twisted lost me on the first outing. In this tough location, I think the owners team will need to raise the bar or find the next opportunity.

Oh boy. Where to start... first of all, if you want sushi, this place is not for you. Over-complicated rolls with too many flavors (trying too hard to be "hip"), and most damning of all, they served us fish that wouldnt have made it into a gas station roll. The salmon I got was beyond its prime, and reeked of cat food. Salmon is NOT supposed to smell fishy! With but one bite, my lunch was ruined, utterly throwing off my appetite. Another diners tuna was similarly "off", not to the same extent but certainly not right. Tempura shrimp roll was bland and unsaveable. Service was paradoxically both slow beyond measure and overbearing. On the rare occasions when we saw our server, she hovered around for minutes at a time, before vanishing entirely. Needless to say, I wont be coming back. Ill be at Sakura House in Strongsville.

Nice find! Id never even heard of this place before. Went for lunch.First, Adina and Ashley were our servers. Such nice people! I felt no pressure to order or leave. They were very personable and we had a couple of nice chats that didnt delay our service (or anyone elses) one bit. Big smiles too. Now, the food! I wasnt super hungry so I ordered two appetizers and no meal. The Serious Sampler and the Poke Salad. Wow, lots of food! More than enough as a meal. The sampler items were all quite good. Nice to try a bunch of things and not spend too much. The Poke salad was delicious and fresh. My wife had the Rainbow Roll. Also delicious. We shared just about everything so we could try as many items as we possible. All were good. Well worth a visit.

The food was really tasty honestly, service was great, place was nice and clean. Just feels like its trying too hard with the whole fusion thing. Nobody needs sushi the size of a burrito. Its borderline grotesque. Again, it tastes good. But what restaurant has meatloaf and also ceviche with dashi? American, Asian, Mexican? Pls the wait staff all seemed to be drinking cult koolaid like the joint was a Wolfgang Puck restaurant. Cocktails were cheap but also confusing. All in all, it was good, fresh, pretty food, served by fast, friendly and efficient wait staff. Something was just odd about it. Eh.

Horrible experience.. I have been hearing how wonderful this place is for months so we decided to try it for my hubbys bday dinner. We were very disappointed. Waitress was rude and did not check back with our table much. They were out of the steak dinner which is what most of us wanted. Then came the wait for food to come, which was over an hour. (At resturant for over 2 hours total). Definitely wont be back. I should say I never write reviews but I figured this might save someone else from the horrible, expensive experience we had.

Great service. Delicious appetizers. Duck wings and the Goon Dip were damn good. I had the Surf and Turf and it was perfect in my opinion. Im not a huge fan of sushi. Served my needs well though. I Tried a friends Spider rolls. They were also great. We came for the Bloody Marys. . 10/10 would try it again. Was not disappointed as someone who has only tried sushi a handful of times. Non sushi menu also looked vast for anyone who doesnt want to go that route.

Finally convinced the lady to check out TWIISTED and it didnt disappoint. I love burgers and sushi, so of course I got an entree of both. The meat was tender and cooked to perfection and the sushi I ordered had the right amount of kick. The Panko crusted onion rings are by far the best Ive had, in a long time. Looking forward to checking out Happy Hour and all you can eat sushi for $14.99!!

WOW!!! Loved it! My husband and I dine out all the time, a friend told us about Twiisted and Im sooo glad they did! The food was fabulous and the service was top notch! The first visit I had the Crazy Cali roll and my husband raved about the ribeye for days! Been back three times now and the enjoyed each visit. The endless sushi on Mondays is definitely our favorite day of the week!

What a refreshing experience...best place for burgers and sushi! Big portions, lots of home made ingredients, and the prices are extremely affordable. Everyone is always friendly, the service is the best in Medina. Its family friendly too, which is a huge benefit! I LOVE the Miso Spicy Burger and the Crazy Cali Roll, those are a must try if its your first time there.

My girlfriend and I came in for dinner last night. We eat out probably 5 nights a week and this was some of the best sushi we have eaten. Kevin was our waiter and did an outstanding job. He recommended some different rolls and took care of us during our stay. Even though we live about 45 minutes away we will be back

I ordered one of their special sushi rolls for take out. It was a tempura battered roll which is supposed to be warm. When I arrived it was sitting on the counter, cold. It came with 8 very small pieces of sushi for $12. It tasted old and the batter outside was mushy. I will not be ordering from here again.

I drive over an hour to come here. I love it. Everything Ive had so far has been amazing!! Bronzed Salmon and Crabby Patties I absolutely loved and every one of the sushi rolls were to die for. Everyone is so friendly and fun. Different atmospheres and clean!! Highly recommend!!

Good food at reasonable prices. Limited menu (especially the summer menu), but nice selection of well thought-out burgers and limited selection of sushi rolls and sashimi. The sushi is well made and fresh. They can accommodate larger parties too. Good drink and beer selection.
