Kuma San Japanese Restaurant — Restaurant in Lake View Township

Just felt like updating the original review. Nearly two years later of consistent ordering for take out/dining in, this place never disappoints. It absolutely became a non-negotiable staple sushi spot in the area. Their menu has fantastic diversity to choose from - excellent, super fresh sushi, ramen, donburi, tons of vegetarian options and lovely desert options to top it off. Also, BYOB, which is a huge plus. Would like to specifically highlight a newly added omakase option. Just heads up, reservation is required. My personal tip, prepare yourself and come very hungry, as you can expect a large selection. Your palate and the belly will be satisfied for sure. Also, wanted to note, that this service will also make you feel very special - they would temporary close the place, as chef will be treating you with fantastic cuts for the entire hour. It definitely felt very exclusive and special, worth the try. Looking forward to doing it again!!! Great...

Yesterday myself, mom, and younger sister were excited to try this spot even as far as going through the rain to get there, when we got in we were told by the staff that we were told tables were only for two. We asked if we could put a third one so we could sit together. We even tried asking if we could sit at the bar and they said no to all these requests and left us standing for a long period of time. The staff were not accommodating and lacked any shred of decency in customer service of that of a Japanese restaurant or any restaurant. Ultimately we left and will not give business to a place that is racist and discriminates customers. Would give zero...

I would avoid ordering any sushi with raw fish here. The fish seemed poor quality and I am concerned I will be sick later tonight. Most of the food seemed very poor quality. The miso soup was lukewarm. I stopped eating after a few bites. I sat down on a poorly constructed unfinished plywood bench and saw large pieces of decorative structures standing crooked like they could fall over any second. I figured as long as the food was good the decor wouldn't matter, but the food was not good. The waitress was very nice and I did appreciate the picture of Goku...
