Sushi Ya Asian Fusion — Restaurant in Penn Township

(Take-out experience)

This review is from the perspective of an Asian person. I say this to provide a different set of standards and overall view point because these 4/5 star ratings are highly, highly, questionable. I ordered the fried noodles with beef and boba milk tea. If you are looking for oil to moisten your dry skin, this is the place to be. You get food + lotion 🧴 The beef wasn’t tender. It was dry. Imagine your average mall teriyaki fast food place, but worse.

The boba milk tea is absolutely laughable. It was basically baby formula with boba you get from those “instant boba milk tea kits”. If you are used to decent to great boba tea from places like Gong Cha, KFT, Teado or Kokee you’ll be really upset. Don’t even bother even if you are desperate for some bubble tea. Take a drive to Ninja Ramen or Hippo in York.

All in all, go to Full Moon or Pho Viet for the best Asian spots in Hanover.

Within the Asian community, anything with “Fusion” in the name you can bet it’ll be cafeteria low effort Asian cuisine for the sake of catering to the non-Asian community.

I don’t write reviews because it’s a waste of time, unless my experience was really good or really bad. Unfortunately, this is one of those moments.

I hope this restaurant fixes their quality and actually make a decent attempt at making these dishes.

For the price, you might as well go to Full Moon. They have a similar menu, but the quality is way better...

Sushi Ya’s food is good. However, my past two experiences have not been good. I love their pho but cannot eat the bigger portion so I had been ordering the pho (kids) which is on the main menu, not the kids menu. I thought it was acceptable to order this since I had done so many times before, the price has increased by three dollars more, and is on the main menu. I recently ordered to go and when I got there, I asked for extra hoisin sauce but the owner said I didn’t need more. After insisting I did receive the sauce. The most recent time we were dining in and we immediately noticed the owner had an attitude. He used to be friendly, but has not been for the past few visit to this restaurant. When I ordered the pho (kids), he said that I couldn’t order it. Seriously! What difference does it make? This was unfortunate for his sales because I was going to get something else to go with it. Like I said, the food is good, but the atmosphere has definitely changed and not...

I was pretty excited to see a new sushi spot in Hanover, and even more to see that they offered online ordering with text notifications for order status. I give 4 stars for service not because the employees weren’t friendly (they were and also personable), but bc I received a notification that my order was ready and arrived 10 minutes thereafter to be asked to wait 10 more minutes since there was some sort of miscommunication between the online ordering system and the kitchen that prevented my order from being ready. I have no issue waiting; it’s just that I was notified that my order was ready when it was not. The sushi and chicken pineapple fried rice were delicious, but the miso soup was a little too salty. Overall, I will be returning and will take the order status notifications with a...
