Okayama Express: Reviews & Ratings
Lunch time bento box specials are worth it. Prices have gone up slightly. Waitresses are amazing.
What an awesome place! This place is tucked away in a strip mall. I happened to run across this restaurant while staying at the nearby Homewood Suites hotel. ...
I had never been to this sushi spot and I love sushi! Went in and I was the only one in the whole place. The experience was awesome and food came quick. The fish was delicious and worth every penny. I highly recommend this if you enjoy sushi!
The food is fresh and amazing. The service is extremely quick and efficient. The prices are in line with the portions.
A brilliant bento box, with a great selection of choices. I had the tripple bento, with teriyaki beef, chicken katsu and tuna nigiri. All ...
Nice place for a weekday lunch. The service was quick and the food tasted great. I ordered a couple of rolls and they threw in a miso soup. ...
Great place. We ordered from here multiple times, tried various rolls, bento boxes, everything always tastes awesome. When visiting in person, prefer to take noodles they are delicious when fresh, and the portions are enormous. Will definitely visit order from here again.
Small hole in the wall where not only is the food delicious and fresh, but the service is incredible. Never had to wait for anything requested but they werent pushy either. Fine balance of being there just enough for every request. Had two items from complete opposite sides of the menu and both were on point.
