Asian Fusion — Restaurant in Lincoln

We have been here a number of times over the last few years, and it was the first place my wife and I went on a date when we moved to the area, so we probably gave it more chances than we should have. While it started out relatively great (for the area), it has progressively gotten worse and worse to the point that we have decided we won't be going back.

The service staff is impersonal and inattentive at their best (this hasn't changed over the years), and failed to mention or remind us of extremely basic stuff, like the fact that the "all you can eat" menu includes a drink other than water... so we essentially paid for three soft drinks and got zero.

Especially for the price, which is another issue. Asking $25 now for a menu lacking a lot of common (for this restaurant genre) options like sashimi, chicken wings, squid, or cutlet items is just bizarre and exorbitant. (And no, calling it "fusion" isn't an excuse. Neither is "being in the Midwest").

Our sushi was really good (esp. the Angry Dragon), except for the smaller rolls that were drowned in sauce and lacking in internal substance.

The Rangoon were good, although calling them "crab" Rangoon instead of cream cheese rangoon is a bit misleading.

The hot & sour soup was just ok. Too much tofu, a bit too sweet.

The rest of the fried appetizers were dry and oily and either overcooked or too old.

The Kani Salad though? It was literally missing everything except for the fake crab and the sauce, which was extremely weird and lazy. Cucumber? Carrot? Panko? Nope, not this time. See the photo. Just shredded Krab with a haphazard splash of sauce.

The kids menu fried rice was absolutely awful. It was basically plain white rice with maybe a sneeze of seasoning and black pepper in it and some vegetables that came from a freezer. The added shrimp also had...

From Yelp: Unique hot spot in south Lincoln for Asian Fusion food. They have Japanese and Chinese on the menu which includes sushi. We had a great experience recently eating here and I am surprised by all the negative reviews.

First, the Building is modern and full of, well, pizazz for a lack of a better word. Lots of LED lights and fancy fixtures. Nothing else really like it in Lincoln.

As for the food, The hot and sour soup was excellent, as was the crab Rangoon which had lots of crab in it. They spend a little extra time on presentation by adding dressed up fruits or veggies to the plates. Creative and imaginative. The Chinese is excellent as well. I have had the Peanut Butter Chicken, as well as the orange chicken and both were very tasty and fresh.

We stopped in and tried some of the sushi as well, it was ok, nothing over the top. We had the Spicy Tuna Roll, Shrimp Tempura Roll, Passion Roll, and the crazy house roll. All were good with the Passion Roll being the best of the bunch with spicy tuna, salmon, yellowtail and topped with tuna and a spicy mayo. One thing we did appreciate was their menu is split with raw and cooked rolls so you can order accordingly if you are with people who have an aversion to raw fish. This is surprisingly absent at most sushi places.

FYI, Wednesday from 5-7 they offer a special where its buy one Chinese entrée, get one half off. Not a bad deal with most of their entree's are around $10, and the second of EOLV will then run...

We arrived at about 5:30 pm on a Saturday. It was rather empty in there customer wise Good time to arrive. The booths were large and spacious I love the decor high ceilings and open. Originally was just going to buy a couple rolls then we noticed they had their unlimited menu for $23 a person. And only $12.99 for kids 10 and under. The price includes drink. And a large selection of soups, rolls and entrees. It was my son's first time trying sushi so we got one roll of various types. We also got hot sour soup. The hot sour soup was very spicy. The roles were good, and they were big unfortunately rice made up a large portion of them. My favorites at sushi restaurants are normally the spicy salmon and or spicy tuna rolls. But the way they prepare them the fish tastes like it has bits of fried breading inside. This is a far cry from the way I feel spicy salmon should be prepared. Our waitress was very personable keeping our drinks filled and checking in with us to make sure the food was good. They had light jazz music playing throughout the building it was light enough you could hear it but not loud enough to be a distraction from your meal and company. The restrooms were clean. I likely will come back again. Total price after 20% tip two adults and one child was $76. It would have been a five-star review but the way they prepare the spicy salmon cost...
