| - If I could give this a 2.5, I would. By no means was it a bad experience, but I also can't ever see myself going back. Maybe if I was out with a group of people and they wanted to go? Even then I'd probably offer up some alternatives.
There are a lot of really harsh reviews on here, and I totally get why, but honestly my experience wasn't terrible. The servers were all friendly, I liked the music, and I liked the interior, but the food was just okay at best. I was with a group of four, and between us we had the pickled sampler, the edamame, and the brussel sprouts as appetizers. We had a lot of fun trying (and watching each our reactions to) the various pickled items, but I thought the sprouts were waaaaaaaaay too salty. The edamame was tasty, but it's hard to screw that up. For the entree I had the Tempura Soba Dori noodles. They weren't bad, but they also weren't that great.
That seemed to be the overall experience of the night. Not bad, but not great. Cleveland has much, much better offerings if you're in the mood for this genre of food. If you really get hit with a noodle craving, your $11 would be better spent at Superior Pho, Minh Anh, or Bac on some of their pho or vermicelli.
