"Quick and easy, everything goes well with wasabi. The disposable chopsticks and paper trays harm the experience but that's to be expected from a food court meal."

"Ordered the salmon teriyaki donburi for $17 and received the beef teriyaki donburi ($15.50). It was delicious so could not complain. It was prepared quickly and the server was friendly. I’ll probably go back to try the salmon. I hope I get it next time."

"I ordered don buri and it was great! Good service and glad it came in a paper bowl. But their sushi and spoons are still plastic. Not good. When are you going to get compostable containers and spoons? Need to up your sustainability for the sake of the planet Smart Sushi."
