    We stopped by here for dinner one Saturday night before a movie. It wasn't packed like some of the other restaurants down the street and we wanted a quick bite. Its interior was spacious and clean. They offered both table and booth seating. Service was great- our waitress was kind and attentive throughout our stay!

    We started with the fried vegetable gyoza ($5.95) which came with a side of yummy, slightly vinegar-y dipping sauce. It was piping hot and yummy but the pieces were a bit too fried. The outer skin was quite crunchy! I had the Spicy Vegetable Noodle Soup ($10.75) as my entree. It isn't listed as spicy on the menu but they were kind enough to accommodate my request! It consisted of assorted vegetables (bok choy, broccoli, bean sprouts, diced asparagus stalks), chewy ramen noodles, and a savory, spicy broth. The spice level was pretty high but that added so much more flavor to everything! I found its slightly peanutty taste to be a little strange, though. I loved the abundance of noodles. It was made just right- not too mushy but not too stiff, either. The assorted vegetables were fresh and crunchy! I don't think I would've liked the regular broth very much so I'd recommend making it spicy.

    O ginger never disappoints. The scallion pancakes are amazing. The vegetable yaki noodles are perfectly cooked and the veggies are really good. The ramen looked good and the sushi my friend ordered was good. The best part is how easy it is. We went on a Saturday evening to an empty restaurant and sat and socialized for quite a while. When we have gone during the week it's a lot busier but we have never had to wait for a table.

    Worst service ever! Food not cooked through! Stay away from this restaurant!!!
    A lot of friends warned me not to try this restaurant, but I think I need to try it myself to know if it is really what other people think.
    The staffs are very rude and don't even give me water until I explicitly ask for one after been seated for more than 10 mins.
    The food is just so so, and the noodles are not even cooked through, some of them are still sticked together. Even though they recooked my noodles after I complained, they didn't show any sorriness to me.
    I paid 14.5 for the noodles, and it doesn't worth it at all!!! Stay away from this restaurant and spend your Eminem to someplace worthy.
    Hope they will bankrupt soon...

    They have good lunch specials. It's always pretty quiet so you should get a spot easily. The sushi is good and rolls are very tasty. I like the spicy salmon roll.

    Sushi was good--Crazy Cooked Maki and Red Dragon Maki. Very very tasty. I wasn't a fan of Rock n Roll Cooked Sushi...tasty funny. Fast delivery time. I ordered $25 worth so I got a coupon of free edamame. Delivery driver was persistent that a $2 tip was not enough, he tried hustling into more. Idk what his problem was.
